N' then I might just Jump back on An' ride Like a cowboy Into the dawn ........To Montana.
69 days underground
I have been watching the live coverage of the Chilean mine rescue and they have just brought the first miner back to the surface.
.... incredible.

the second miner is free. It seems to take about 12 - 15 minutes to bring them to the surface.

I just have to echo a tweet I saw earlier. Stop calling this a miracle. It's SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING!
This is bound to make a great movie.
I do hope they are not forgotten in two months. I seriously think someone should invent a drink called the Chilean Miner so that the memory lives on.

To the people that got out alive; it's a ****ing miracle to them... no matter how much science is involved, it's up to the individual involved to make that call.
And looking above, nobody said "miracle" once. I'd call it an incredible (in the truest sense of that word) that they lasted for so many days, underground and got out alive.
As far as the drink idea, I'm totally down for that.

You think? I reckon it would be a particularly boring movie. I can't imagine sitting around for a couple of hours watching it being acted out.
33 Chilean miners singing Elvis songs in the semi-dark, ho hum.

...the guy with the wife and the mistress has just arrived at the surface, looking a touch sheepish. Both wife and mistress are at the minehead waiting to see him, uhoh.

actually a chilean miner is a widely known about sexual action kinda like a rusty trombone or a dirty sanchez.
see what you do is get a prostitue and **** **** then have her go halfway ***** ***** and then wait a while then ***** and then ******* and you pop some of those celebration poppers, then when shes done you don't pay her.

I think a good screenplay would wrap up the whole rescue in about a half hour and have the rest of the movie be about their reintegration, health problems, mental breakdowns etc.

You're not wrong there. They were trapped half a mile below ground and had food for 2 days.
For 19 days, nobody even knew there were any survivors. The way they found out was when a probe drill broke through the roof of the drive they were in and a miner had the opportunity to tie a note to the probe head.
If you are religious person, like most of those miners were, then it's a miracle for sure.
It has snatched records for deepest, longest survival for any mining disaster.

all 33 miners have reached the surface. Everybody involved in the rescue should be patting themselves on the back right now.
