Thai cave boys


I've thought that looking at the video and pictures. Why did they even think it was a good idea exploring such narrow passages without any equipment? They're so very lucky to be found and are being brought out to safety.

the bit they went into wasn't narrow.. they wre forced through the narrow bits because of the flooding.

they had visited these caves plenty times before as had loads of locals. Also if you look at the maps that have been produced they say 1m clearance.. obviously the silt and mud has made some of these closer to 50-60cm clearance
 
Will the coach get in a lot of trouble for taking the boys down there in the first place do you reckon or is it just an unfortunate incident that couldn't have been predicted?
 
You are pulling my leg, if not I reckon WWIII will go the same way:lol:

A Hollywood movie?
There's no time to waste in Hollywood, as the arrival of two American producers has proved.

Pure Flix, a US film company, has got its partner Michael Scott and co-producer Adam Smith in Tham Luang and they're already conducting pre-interviews for a possible movie project, according to news agency AAP.

Asked if their actions might be seen as insensitive, Mr Smith said: "There's going to be other production companies coming in so we have to act pretty quickly."

We're unable to confirm if a film is actually in the works but we'll find out soon enough.

The cave is a tourist attraction in the area and frequently visited by the local population. The coach has done nothing wrong by taking the boys in there. It’s just unfortunate that it started to rain while they were in there and so they were forced deeper into the system.

The coach has done well to keep all of the boys together, to maintain good morale and even give his own food to them. The parents recognise he is a good person, why do westerners have difficulty in understanding this concept? Does there always have to be someone to blame?

“Where there’s blame, there’s a claim” is the mantra a lot of people use, sadly.

Fantastic that they’ve all been saved. Such a tragedy about the diver who died last week though.
