Thailand - FOUND ALIVE - 12 Boys And Coach Trapped In Cave , 23 June 2018 #5

[MyBelle]

As I said, the US is way above Thailand. But actually I have seen US cops block off entire roads many times. Sometimes for good reason, sometimes just because they feel like it. That absolutely does happen in the US.

Yes, I know which is why I said it.

The BBC has a team of reporters and producers deployed at the cave and in Chiang Rai, where the group are being taken to hospital once they get out. We'll be bringing you all the latest news and comment from the scene throughout Tuesday.

Re BBC, yeah I know, I've been spying on them with my earbuds all afternoon lol (and yesterday).

Volunteer #thamluang cave diver, Ivan Karadzic, tells BBC the young Thai footballers “are getting forced to do something that no kid has ever done before. It’s not in any way normal for kids to do cave diving at age 11. They’re diving in something considered extremely hazardous.”

Does anyone think the rain seems like it's getting heavier?

Thank you Captain Obvious Ivan K! ; )
Considering the alternative, sounds like a mighty good idea to me! God Bless the heroes.

I doubt much "force" is required.

I see you Cariis!

Where do these 2 roads lead to? I think last night someone said the road to the right leads to the cave?

Is anyone here talented enough to pin where the Reuters camera is on a google map?

 

[margarita25]

I so hope you are right, but I think we have another 6-7 hrs.

I hope it’s already been going down and some are out of there already.

(When I/we saw the ambulances possibly leaving today)

Hoping.

What time is it there right now? Tia.

(Sorry replied to older post I think)

The life stream sounds like eggs frying to me. Maybe I'm hungry.

Please let this rescue remain successful!!!

I'm going to try to stay up as long as I can tonight.

I think he means forced by the situation, not by people.

I suspect these boys, while frightened, wanted to emulate those who discovered them.

I really hope they can get all five out tomorrow. I thought they would get them all today; I was wrong.

If they can't do all five, I wonder about one of the stronger boys staying behind. Coach won't give up if one of the boys depends on him.

We're back covering the incredible #ThaiCaveRescue again - live updates here from the @bbcnewsasia team and our colleagues in Chiang Rai

Cave rescue enters day three

 

[abeaman02]

As a result, the boys, aged 11 to 17, have a surprise in store: when they are safely brought out, and once they have recovered, they will be sent by their parents to local monasteries to have their heads shaved and serve as Buddhist monks.

Can I just say this may not be a surprise they are hoping for

“The group includes six Australian Federal Police divers supporting the Thai Navy, together with a liaison officer and interpreter and Dr Richard Harris, a specialist in hyperbaric medicine.

A 100-strong support team is pumping out litres of water to stop more flooding in the caves.”
