I tried all my browsers, Twitter, Facebook, and nowhere can I watch this video! In fact my browser crashed. :mad:

I will have to wait until someone puts it on YouTube, that usually works for me. :rolleyes:

I just want them to get some food and water asap. They look like babies. They are babies. I'm just so happy they are alive and that they stuck together.

Did the coach not speak to the rescuers? (Because only the boys are being mentioned.)

It's hard to tell who is speaking. The boys are looking behind them at times so I think it may be the coach answering but he is toward the back of the group.

It's incredible that they are in comparatively good shape, isn't it? I thought at least a few would have been injured, have infections, suffered from diarrhea from drinking dirty water, or worse. But maybe these kids are tougher than we know, their bodies used to playing in mud and have scratches etc.

Live: Thai cave rescue - CNN
The Thai NAVY Seal released a video that appears to be the very first moment when the trapped boys were discovered.

One of the rescuers tells the boys in English with a British accent: “You are very strong.”

Here's their conversation:

  • Rescuer: How many of you?
  • Boys: 15 (inaudible)
  • Rescuer: 15, Brilliant! We are coming, many people are coming. Many people, we are the first.
  • Boys: Asking what day it is.
  • Rescuer: Monday, you have been here 10 days, 10 days. You are very strong, very strong. We come, ok, we come.


These are the first images of all 12 boys and their soccer coach. They were found alive in a cave in Thailand. pic.twitter.com/YAkWOihXgg

The coach is only in his twenties so I think he is being lumped in with "the boys". I heard an older voice so I think he is there.

Earlier it was said that there is a Navy Seal Doctor on hand who will go to them and make sure they are all strong before they are moved out. It was said it could take months to get them out depending on their condition when found. That said, they all look to be in good shape for what they have endured. I hope they can be safely brought out in the next few days or a week and not months from now.

I just heard a journalist on CNN say the latest estimate is 12 hours to get them out. They will go immediatey to a hospital to be checked out. The hope is to drain enough water that they can walk out or be carried, possibly by stretcher.

I have a feeling the coach is dealing with his own embarrassment and guilt on top of being starved and exhausted. He probably doesn't want to say much. I hope they go easy on him. He's young and I'm pretty sure he's learned his lesson.

They are speaking Thai among themselves but I think it's the coach that is speaking in English to rescuers. Also, feel your pain Elainera with videos/browser crash and found VPN helpful.

No. Just 13.

The number 15 was from garbled conversation with multiple people speaking. But the response back is clearly "13?"
