Chilean Mine Rescue Timeline

An animated timeline of the rescue efforts to save 33 trapped miners in Chile. Seth Doane reports.

[@tomwest3822]

Imagine being the last one saved, must be creepy being alone for even just a minute down in those depths

[@jonessalovermacaulay]

tom west exactly

[@MadMenPlays]

Marco Espana How young are you?

[@MadMenPlays]

Nigga I've had that since I was like 9.

[@RiceWrap]

Marco Espana LMAO

[@mystery785]

tom west he had to wait a whole hour and 30 min 15 min down there

[@TheAjstyle65]

This rescue itself was an engineering feat.

[@Richard-r7u6c]

steve b It is vastly more complicated than that. Please tell me you've learnt basic geography in school and you're simply joking..

[@seewhyaneyesee]

steve b The animation of the hole being dug is inaccurate (the drill can go off alignment) plus your imagination is vague. No wonder you’re helpless & stuck in life.

[@michaello7635]

Tangsang Limbu I was thinking the same what if they went off track and missed thier target they would have to restart but these engineers are badass and know what thier doing

[@NathanB2002]

steve b remember the tunnel isn’t very wide, and nothing like this had ever been attempted

[@francoisdvanderwesthuizen]

Michael lo, they did in fact miss at 2 occasions and only got third time lucky, which is not mentioned here. It is in fact an engeneering marvel as the mapping system of that mine was way out of date and new maps had to be drawn with existing data. They also had to relocate the drilling station. The final hole was drilled at about 800yards deep into a tunnel of about 10 feet wide and best of all its not even drilled streight down. Because of ground instabilities the hole had so be drilled a few degrees off vertical down. That is some serious mathematics and skill to keep that thing in course. Something neither of the companies involved has done to this extend.. these engeneers, scientists and all involved rewrote history, science, mathematics and geography as we know it, which is something done well.

[@Motionwave-]

The last guy down there must of had a long 15 minutes

[@jacksonmyfelt2843]

Super Cam imagine being down there by yourself

[@mr.t6316]

30 minutes lol

[@garrisonridgway7494]

Really 45 has 15 up and down for the second to last guy lol

[@telmenbayarsaikhan6374]

There were rescue workers down in the mine helping the miners into the elevator. So the last guy would probably have been a rescue worker

[@IHTLS]

J M lol but true

[@nicks4251]

My father was a friend of one of the people in there. He was terrified, I met him personally and he is such a great man. It was an accident, but things could have been prevented. I’ve been to the mine entrance and it’s amazing, this whole accident was a miracle. Thank god it saved my dads friend.

[@pablomaya2735]

As a Chilean myself and watching the whole process in the news, the movie is terribly misinforming, it's just some hollywood drama, the base story is real, but is fake.

[@geomodelrailroader]

I am glad they got them out. NASA Langley designed and built the capsules they used to get them out.

[@PST9]

You are amazing..

[@weedwizard7906]

My family was from Copiapó. Most of my family now lives in Oregon state but it was so crazy seeing this on the news everywhere in the US when I was in Copiapo months before this happened. So glad everything went good. Props to everyone involved in the rescue.

[@Fido-vm9zi]

Oh the intelligence of rescuers & perseverance of miners, wow!

[@Gonken88]

Must have smelled awful down there, with 30+ sweaty men not having a shower for months, pissing and shitting on the floor in a corner somewhere. Sadly a lot of people think that they were out of the weeds as soon as they were rescued, but no, most of them suffer mental issues like post traumatic stress to this day, and are unable to lead normal lives. As I recall, one of them stated that every time he goes to sleep, he has nightmares about being trapped in a cave, with rocks falling down from the ceiling while the ground is trembling and there's a constant roar like thunder or machinery. Unfortunately the rescue itself was so fucking expensive the state feels like they should be grateful as it is, and go on with their lives. Point taken in part I'd say.

[@thebeatles9997]

I remembered rayan a 5yrs.old boy who fell in a well with around 100ft..and took about 4 days to got him,but sad to say that he died before the rescue...and these mens are so lucky to survive in that very deep holes....God is Good

[@minns5515]

I just watched the movie too I'm glad they were able get them all out

[@PersonMania]

Its amazing how history repeats itself.

[@Chaosfury50]

Just imagine that sheer terror everyone would have been experiencing under that ball of fire that would rain down invisible heat every 12 hours whilst waiting for the 33 heroes to finish diligently drilling the rescue shaft up to the dangerous "roof land"

[@AMindInOverdrive]

You'd think there would have been escape tunnels installed before miners were even allowed work in it...to facilitate a quick rescue when a disaster strikes

[@CGoody564]

Mayur Aggarwal both; he said tunnels, as in multiple. However, it would always be to the left on the safe room, as the safe room is still the very end of a constructed tunnel. However he isn't taking in to account how the rescue hole would effect the integrity of the rest of the cave systems.

[@AMindInOverdrive]

Oh Mr Sarcastic , What's with the attitude? I was just posing a thought. Trigger warning: If you can't handle opinions and suggestions then stop reading the comments section of KZbin - it's full of them

[@AMindInOverdrive]

Yeah, I'm not an expert, I was just posing a thought. Maybe rescue pre-built rescue tunnels are not even possible

[@andrewfilipowitz3154]

Too expensive lmao

[@DeeRuss]

So they’re still on the clock, still in uniform and still at work, overtime must’ve been crazy!

[@Baztation]

PLEASE BRING TO THAILAND NOW!

[@beevsbar4627]

Ketchupboyz Sorot.T this is what they need!

[@guppy100100]

They would have to drill a 1 km (3200 feet) hole which takes too long to rescue them. Heavy rain will be the big deadly problem which will occur in the next few days

[@HobbyHell42]

My teacher showed this video to us in class and everyone was so glad when they got out

[@pauljung7611]

I am very instrested in this because i was too yong to remember this.

[@RaymondHng]

gamaliel sendy It's American broadcaster CBS who made and aired this video for an American audience.

[@mayonnaise1271]

Well, Americans aren't the only people interested in this incident.

[@RaymondHng]

American advertisers who bought commercial spots in CBS's newscast are sponsoring the production. American TV audiences who buy the products and services of these American advertisers are their revenue stream. Viewers on KZbin outside the USA are not part of this revenue stream and are getting a free ride.

[@doppiedops]

askin, In the movie, the first guy, got his capsule stuck in a somekind of toaster, then they fixed it by reversing it, then back forward then he eventualy got out, was that true?

[@question7615]

IdevsALot I don't think so, it's probably there to get viewers jump to conclusions

[@JM-yx1lm]

Probaly not true, but what COULD have happened was a rock dislodge from the shaft wall and jam up against capsule. Up and down motion frees rock and continue capsule up shaft.

[@snydmark]

I'm trying to figure out why I took him 3 months to rescue those minor! Also why did it cost 20 million dollars to rescue those minors? And how many jobs were lost because now that mine's closed down right?

To be honest the Thai cave rescue was way more exciting Still though, pretty amazing miners

[@austinaltemeyer4637]

If they drilled two holes right next to each other wouldn't the dirt in between have a chance to collapse that's just confusing

[@Evergreen1400]

You know addiction is a powerful thing,when I was addicted to pain killers thanks to my Drs and all this was going on I remember thinking how could I get high down there I’d panic. I’m glad I got off those.

[@Evergreen1400]

Case. Do I have to be speaking to someone specific if I want to comment on a KZbin video?

[@kwaltze]

Riley Senn why is this anything related to the video at all?

[@Evergreen1400]

Yung Draco. Smh hard for me to talk to someone that goes by young draco but I injured myself ,it all starts with the Drs I never went to heroin or nothing thankfully and I was able to stop pain killers on my own even tho my drs would still happily write me monthly prescriptions,I was on pain management for a chronic issue.

[@Evergreen1400]

Jeradh 2. It’s related to the video in the context I described,most people wouldn’t be thinking about getting their medicine if they got trapped in a mine thousands of ft bellow the earth so I was saying that while all this was going on I remember watching the news and thinking I’d panic because I couldn’t get my pain meds that was one of the things that let me know I had a problem so I ended up quitting on my own. So I understand it’s a weird thought but it was about addiction an addict would understand what I was getting at,1 of the miners was actually an alcoholic and was going through withdrawals down there I guarantee he was more worried about getting a drink then his family or even dying at first. Idk if you smoke cigarettes but if you do imagine being in jail and not being able to smoke it’s one of the shittiest parts at first yes you want to be free but you really really really just want a cig 1st.
