Too often Movie stars sport stars and others are classed as heroes, but these rescue workers are the ones i would want in my corner if I were in danger

I agree!

i agree 100%. my husband retired from the MSHA rescue team last year. i was sooo relieved because everytime he was called out you knew that the conditions were extreme. they have to deal with trying to rescue, and if that's not possible then they deal with the recovery. it's not often you see a miracle, especially one this great!! pray for the victims & their family, but also pray for the rescuers & their families when these disasters happen.

I agree. I think the 6 who went down to help rescue are among the bravest men in the world. What a great international feat.

I've been hoping all would make it and they have. Thanks to the rescue team.

I am so pleased that someone has mentioned South Africa. I beleive that one of the drills used came from S.A. Well done to all involved.

I understand that Murray and Roberts were the first there and drilled the initial hole - do not know if they did more but know that they were still there up to a day ago. Well done Murray and Roberts !!!

Thank you to the South Africans, who made this rescue operation possible and successful!

It was awesome that they all got out alive, we should all take this time to thank our Creator for delivering them all out safe and sound. I can only imagine how the families feel right now.

Agreed, thank God they are all out safe and sound!
