Title: 'Mission accomplished': All 33 miners rescued

Man, I felt so fucking bad for the miners when this shit happened. I mean imagine being in a dark, rocky, 90% humidity environment for over 2months, (shakes) no way i would survive.

I am really happy they are removed and rescued. Just look at Chile, i mean the president is just like a regular normal guy, the entire Chile people are like a family together, whereas Americans we dont give a shit to each other (kinda)

I am surprised Obama didnt visit Chile and the miners, atleast show some respect, I mean wouldn't you guys agree? or is he too busy fixing our shitty economy?


I saw the entire live video, from the testing the capsule, to removing the 5-6th miner out..

I honestly saw so much happiness in that country compared to ours. Makes me want to cry just now, because of the way our beautiful country is operating like McDonalds making a shit sandwich. You guys all know the 90's era... Good ol days...

Sorry I'm just missing too much of the good times.

Ditto for England.

I think it's great and I'm glad to see all of them were rescued, can't imagine how it would have been down there.

Bear Grylls whos a guy teaches tv viewers on how to survive, said he wouldnt be able to survive for a month.

I mean if you think about it, they were 33 people. one was a basketball coach, another medical doctor i think?, etc etc.. these guys got togther as a team and said WE WILL NOT GIVE UP!!

I am really impressed on how can one go pass limits of the human body.

Too bad no one cares about Australia! <3

@osaeed2k9:
America has lost its personal responsibility. The dems in Congress and the White House placate to that fact by instilling more and more government control over our lives and our businesses. It's time to go back to the 90s, back to responsibility, back to pride.

Anyway, Chile is a proud country because they are rather self sufficient, hard working, and isolated. They don't bathe themselves in luxuries, they do what needs to get done and don't fucking bitch about it. Frankly, I don't think 33 American miners would have survived for 69 days in that mine, it's a mentality and a cultural thing.

"I mentioned on Twitter how 41 years ago the world watched men walk on the moon," said Connie Preti of New York. "Today we are seeing men come out from the earth. It's equally striking."

Indeed to Connie!

Actually thats not true, several years ago we had a similar incident where 6 guys were trapped in a way worse situation, and I saw it covered on CNN and.... bush made a statement. No one in australia cared for that part :P
