Super impressive in every weay. THE miners are amazingly strong, and the governemnt and I suppose teh mining company did a great job of constructing and operating a very simple but apparently effective system of escape.
Does anyone know if the ascent is made in darkness, or is there a small light in the capsule?
I wonder if these guys will be able to head back down in the future.

We can't lose sight of the fact that these men are tough men from a very different culture than the US. They are used to living in small spaces and sharing their lives as part of a communal society with each other. I just don't see Americans being able to handle this type of isolation as well as these men handled it. They are less likely to have PTS than someone from this culture. They will go right back to their lives and wouldn't need psychiatrist and anti depressants for the rest of their lives. It just the way people in most of the world handle crisis.
