well a couple days ago in the news i found out that some Chilean miners had a cave in. they were stuck 2 months and could not be pulled out until recently. there was some trouble with the structural stability of the mine. if they did not drill the hole with utmost precision they would have made the mine cave in killing the miners. they had to drill a hole from the top just enough to drop down water and food until they could be pulled out. according to CBC news the drilling went on for 33 days straight. man i don't think i would've survived living in a cave with but a tiny hole to get food water ad entertainment from. i envy those men and women who endured it until they were pulled out. to have that kind of will power. also i think that the country to deserves some praise as well. because they did not leave the miners to die but kept trying to find ways of getting them out and they did. i think that Chile has a amazing unity within the people. i mean every one knows each other and they're all good friends. i believe that all of the people that were found have been sent home to there families safely.if anybody wants to read more on this i will provide a link to the story. here you go enjoy http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/10/09/chile-miners.html.
