  1. It’s hard to beat a success story with brave men and women coming together and accomplishing something extremely difficult and dangerous. I bet it will be a while before those kids go exploring in a cave again. I’ve been into some caves, I’ve done a little bit of diving, I don’t think I would want to mix the two.

  2. It would be great to have photos and recognition of all the divers who actually brought the team members out. Everyone is thankful the boys were rescued, but all those involved in the rescuing should be given credit for their professional expertise, too. Real heroes actually doing good!

  3. Hey kids, says the coach, let’s go check out those caves! It will be great and nothing will happen! We have no food, no communications gear, no problem. We’ll be back in an hour!

  4. Extirpated: I heard that there were signs posted that warned not to enter from June – August due to potential for floods. I guess the young coach didn’t believe something so bad could happen
