Saving Thirteen Lives: The Day of the Rescue

[@XxXenosxX]

That is terrifying and the rescuers are true heroes

[@twixxtro]

now i wanna be trapped in a cave so i can tranq walk

[@billgreen1861]

What the heck PBS, no mention of, Saman Kunan the 37 year old former Royal Thai Navy SEAL, died by asphyxiation during the rescue attempt on, July 6th no honorable mention at all, what a shame PBS.

[@acc8064]

That was my first thought too! His sacrifice should have been honored.

[@williambryant5946]

At the end of the video at 13:08 they show a picture of him when the narrator say the word sacrifice in a sentence talking about what can be achieved through sacrifice, bravery, and teamwork. Hes only shown long enough to say that word though.

[@billgreen1861]

@@williambryant5946 That is no consolation because I know his story and I missed that split second picture that you are referring to and I am not going back to see if it is true, imagine people who don't know his story. He should have been mentioned he paid with his life. So don't say they showed his image for a split second sorry that does not cut it.

[@robertlongwill8856]

I agree with you wholeheartedly about the Royal Thai Navy SEAL Saman Kunan

[@joanne5428]

The most amazing rescue ever, those divers are very brave men, I just listened to the podcast, I do remember when this happened, RIP to the seal that lost his life 🙏

[@RONJAE212003]

I’ll bet they have PTSD. I pray for their mental state. So happy for you all. So happy to see your smiles. Thankful to my higher power.

[@aliceschmid9697]

I bet they don't. Coach Ek is a former Buddhist monk and trained them to meditate and to minimize anxiety.

[@tanjat1707]

​@@aliceschmid9697They probably wouldn't survive without him in the first place. Without his knowledge how to control stress the outcome would have probably been different.

[@juanax5473]

I heard one of the boys commited suicide 😞​@@aliceschmid9697

[@cherrytraveller5915]

They don't have PTSD. Some of those kids have been back to the cave since.

[@wdbrot]

It’s important to remember that Ret. Thai navy SEAL Saman Kunan died during the rescue. The story of the rescue is a great story of international unity and cooperation so I appreciate this video with the details of the ordeal. I just wish they didn’t fail to mention SAMAN KUNAN who was there as a VOLUNTEER and unfortunately lost his life while helping with the rescue efforts

[@bhargavasitiraju7257]

❤😢shall remember the people.in this life.

[@PipBunny]

​@@bhargavasitiraju7257 it's Gunan not Kunan

[@erickemper7779]

I remember that day so well when the last boy was taken out of the cave, the world and my heart leapt with joy🙏😃

[@tjmmcd1]

Did they ever find the boys' shoes?

[@davetdowell]

The most important thing that can be learnt from this is that as a Team this was possible, each diver was needed to make this possible (back to chamber 3). Without any of the component parts/members of the team, the rescue would have almost certainly failed. It speaks volumes about the worldwide cave diving community that each diver took on his role, and played his part. We truly are blessed to have such people amongst us.

[@butterfliesarefreetofly6964]

So thankful the rescuers from all over the world to come together to save the boys & their coach. Thank God for all of these heroes! Rest in paradise to Saman Kunan the Royal Thai Navy Seal who died from asphyxiation trying to rescue the boys & coach . You Sir are a true hero & legend. 💜

[@tjmmcd1]

I heard he was strangled to death by a pair of shoes that the boys decided to remove, because sharp rocks inside a dark cave feel better with bare feet.

[@teresarosario4303]

Thank you all for working so hard to rescue these precious children!!!

[@tommym321]

“Precious” 🙄

[@emily-clark]

@@tommym321 I thought the same as you did but then, I looked at her name and sometimes, words can have different meanings when translated from one language to another. For instance, she's Spanish so, when she wrote the word "precious", I believe she meant "valuable, costly, important, treasured, etc.". It depends on the language.☮

[@tommym321]

@@emily-clark Okay, good perspective. I can roll with that.

[@emily-clark]

@@tommym321 I'll be honest with you. I've been dealing with this kind of "problem" for years now. My Dad's from France, you see and I could give you plenty of examples... In French, we have the word "sensible", you'd think it means sensible in English but not at all. It means sensitive. Same story with the expressions etc. Anyway, glad I gave you a new kind of perspective. Peace to You ☮

[@emilyzaman8720]

Why didn’t they mention about the death of one loved diver?

[@Undermarysmantleforever]

Thank goodness for the cave divers 🌟🐙🌟

[@sungazer454]

That stunt to get them all out alive was an absolute work of art and genius. It’s nearly unbelievable that they succeeded.

[@roselightinstorms727]

Blessings for you all❤

[@twotatanka5396]

ive been given valium through iv before a surgery. while thats not nearly as severe and chaotic as this. it works really well

[@HannahNoor-se7jy]

After ten days they are still calm which is really amazing they are really strong for me

[@PakpiRiba]

Pliz mention the neavy diver who died rescuing them

[@engr.aminulrmdsl3508]

Salute to rescuers .

[@cookiemacable]

Saman should have had the rest break instead of the seals carrying on by themselves only r.i.p to this guy who was told to do this dive at this moment in time why didn't they take the break as the U S suggested they did as they decided to carry on diving when all had left to rethink the situation

[@DUBSTEP_KUSH305]

Rip to the diver

[@glug307]

God loves you guys!

[@marleyslim30589]

What about the Navy Seal that died? 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@1handsmoke565]

He was mentioned at the end and the movie.

[@m.h.6499]

I’m assuming since this is an excerpt only, he was mentioned in another place. I wish something appeared here, too. He was so very brave. I still think about his family, and of the 2nd Thai Seal who has since passed of a long term infection, Officer Beirut Pakbara. 🕊💙

[@012bejugamomnivasguptha2]

Just now watched movie THE REAL HEROES 💯💯

[@SolaceEasy]

Thanks for the Valium / Ketamine tip! 👍🤪

[@scubabro9471]

Coincidentally I was at my monthly dive club meeting when they were being rescued from the cave

[@supremeguru2753]

Those facemask where donated by the U.S Air force.

[@jorr1334]

Odd title since the physical rescue took place over 3 days.

[@aliceschmid9697]

They used Xanax, not valium.

[@sksmith2807]

I only wish that they treated the kids in Palastine this way for their life matters too…

[@aliceschmid9697]

Your melodramatic script is exactly opposite the accounts provided by Harris, Stanton, the rest. Makes this sound cheesy.

[@barryratliff176]

Egoes were parked at cave entrance

I hope Elon Musk isn't going to comment on this video.

And Elon’s contribution? Slurs and a sub no one needed?

[@Fairyviewroad]

Elon contributed nothing.

[@Astronomater]

remember what the Disgusting Elon said about one of the rescuers!

[@eman-sr1yb]

He said what???

[@Astronomater]

@@eman-sr1yb one of the lead rescuers refused elon's "help" and was called a pedophile.

[@louise7552]

Thousands of experts to rescue 13 boys ?? Everything is overkill. And yet the poor volunteer diver dies, with nary a mention. Pathetic. How was that allowed to happen 😮. Too many ego's imo.

[@gnacan2]

At the end it says "A testimony to the resolve of the people of Thailand"...what about the Australian guy...and the Americans...and all the many, many other people who figured out the plan and then executed it? A diver actually died before they got this all figured out. Is Thailand related to Trump - or Putin? You know, those 2 guys who take credit for anything good that happens in their country without ever giving credit to the people who pull it off🙄They mention teamwork but give no credit or thanks.

[@Tali5899]

It was 2 British guys who figured out a plan and roped in the Australian anesthetist.

[@barryratliff176]

Its there chamber of commerce not ours , everyone knows the British divers were the true hero's

[@matthew-jy5jp]

Amazingly brave of everyone

[@JordanMottram]

As heroic and brave this was.....knowing the Thai drug laws and the kids was sedated with ketamine..... was they then arrested on the spot and sent to execution in a Thai prison?

[@riss_papa]

amazing story

[@billgreen1861]

Marissa, you know what is amazing, there was no mention of, Saman Kunan the 37 year old Navy SEAL, died during the rescue. Not mentioned at all. Shame to PBS.

[@frankdux4515]

American boys these days wouldn't have made it. Too soft.
