Imagine being that one guy with the skillset of being both an anaesthesiogist and an expert cave diver with decades of experience and getting that call. Absolutely crazy rescue.
I'm not a cave diver but I am an anesthesiologist and I can confirm this whole operation was patently insane. I honestly believe Dr. Harris went into this mentally prepared to accept a 0% survival rate. I've known about this for years but every time I hear about it again I end up in tears and utter disbelief.
I was thinking the same thing. Must have been a crazy experience.
@@pochopmartinthere is a really good documentary about this on Disney+...
He said that even getting one out alive would be close to a miracle and that he knew this was so unbelievable insane. He was fully prepared that this would not end in a good way, especially as you had medically untrained people administer a second dose along the way. While swimming in murky water, holding up the children and equipment and through a wetsuit without any desinfection...
@@pochopmartinI just watched the documentary and yeah he said that he just lied through his teeth about how this could succeed because it was their only chance
😮
Anesthesiologist and diver combo is absolutely insane talk about the right man at the right place .
He waited all his life for that moment 🦸♂️
God makes a way
And not just a dover, but an experienced cave diver.
Didnt see god do anything here@@Chill227
Kinda sus human trafficking vibes tbh
Imagine how lucky the one kid felt when he went home early
He probably would have had mix of guilt, anxiety and luckiness
Also would anyone know what happened to the boys if he went as well? The parents didn't know anything so maybe the group didn't think to tell anyone where they were going. If so he saved their lives.
@@moent00 true 🤔
If the kids died he would probably have survivors guilt
@@Randomdudelolz fr
The stars truly aligned for these boys. It's insane to think about how they barely avoided death. The man who was an anesthesiologist and an experienced cave diver, who was just so happened to be friends with the cave diver who just so happened to be there during the incident, who just so happenedto have explored that cave extensively enough to be able to map it. And that team was only pointed to that cave, because ONE team member got picked up by their mom.
So true. I also can't help but think what would have happened had the country been one like Russia or Iran. Too proud to accept foreign help the way the Thais did
Sometimes fate is incomprehensibly generous
get closer to God pls there is gonna be many people who arnt going to make it to the kingdom of heaven🙏✝️😊l
@@blitzFN100 keep your religion to yourself ffs
@@DomAtaGlance Russia regularly offers help rescuing people when disaster strikes. what you are on about ?
To anyone who knows cave diving, the levels these guys went to to save these boys is absolutely above and beyond. "Swimming against the current, dragging ourselves along the sand with our hands" is absolute insanity. In cave diving, spatial skills and maintaining your orientation and visibility is critical. Dragging themselves like that in an already murky current must've kicked up an incredible amount of silt. Meaning these two civilian chads were already in passages with no visibility and also basically manufacturing the exact silt storm conditions which KILL most cave divers, intentionally, just to try to save people they'd never met. Absolutely incredible willpower, calm under pressure, and plenty of pure skill. Just crazy.
The Brits are tenacious and relentless
Just incredible really. Amazing
@@aaronbethom8166 they really do like the idea of being able to say they were the first do anything new
It's absolutely fascintating watching a very niche set of skills being utilised by a couple of civ's to coordinate this rescue. Everything about this is no stroke of fate, these men were meant to be there.
I forgot about the silt. You're absolutely right. It takes extraordinary ppl to be able to do something like this & do it successfully.
Here is a good example of why good CGI is necessary in depicting these kinds of stories.
I must have watched hours of news and footage of this rescue. I had absolutely no idea it was this mind-numbingly difficult.
The guys who gave and risked their lives, the Brits who kept going knowing they had no way back if they didn't find an air pocket, are beyond brave! The word hero is thrown around a lot these days, but if these guys aren't heroes, idk who is!
The craziest thing is that the CGI in this video doesn't really convey quite how horrible parts of this cave are. We're talking zero visibility, strong currents and incredibly small passageways (40 x 70cm). To fit a fully grown man equipped with long distance diving equipment through such a narrow gap is a challenge itself, to do that with a child strapped to them without knocking off their masks is another thing entirely.
And to think that troglodyte Musk slandered one of the British divers, even hired private peepers to dig dirt on him, just because he called him out on his PR stunt with his useless minisub.. Just shows what a despicable person Musk really is.
@@retromunkey like why would a dosen of kids wanted to explore this cave without proper equipment is beyond my imagination
@@putraduha3176 you must not have ANY imagination then.
Robin Anna’Niaz - NEO did an amazing job depicting how extensive the cave network was!
I cry ugly when I hear that desperate "thank you" from one of the boys when they found. Could not imagine the feeling of fear and gratitude he has at that time.
I couldn't imagine how they must have felt, being stuck there for 10 days, not even knowing how long it's been, how long they'd have to wait, IF help was even coming.
@@Amanda-zt8et cannot imagine being stuck there for so long at so young, terrified it was all going to end there :(
That's when I started to tear up.
The combination of being an anesthesiologist plus being a seasoned diver...holy mother....he was born for this day literally
Cave diver at that. About 1% of recreational divers have the proper skill set to cave dive. And of that 1% there’s not very many with the skill to traverse a cave like that.
I had no idea the rescue was so incredibly complex. If this was in a movie, people would think that it was too unrealistic. This has to be one of the most impressive things ever accomplished by humans.
I agree! I was shocked to learn the details!
I loved the rescue. It’s in Hulu and Disney+. There’s some even more mind blowing details
Agreed - breath taking heart stopping shocking - never felt so stressed and anxious before. Elation at successful rescue - unbelievable amazing hardly comes close to describing this.
@@radbradboy2319whats the movie name?
I watched the movie a few years ago and it gave me shivers multiple times. It was so scary. Glad they could rescue most people.
I just realized... that one momma's boy saved their lives. If he had gone with them, there would have been no one that knew when they had gone.
Yes. 😊
Crazy that one boy was lucky
Seeing the poor boys waiting for someone to come get them broke me completely. They looked so helpless, stressed, lifeless...I bawled my eyes, my heart could not take it. I am so glad they were all rescued by a marvellous team.
and in the pitch darkness 😭
you're not the only one
Ty for this comment..I don’t have the guts to finish the but reassurance that they survived makes me feel alot better💔
I remember when this happened but had no idea how crazy the actual rescue efforts were
its probably just bc im a democrat but i was so happy when i heard these children were saved! republicans would rather them get sh*t in a school

The quote “came with a price” was so incredibly powerful. Rest in peace to the two navy seals who passed away for the boys. You are truly unbelievable heroes.

@@syarifairlangga4608 A blood infection
Sadly one of the boys killed himself at school in UK a few years later at the age of 17 years. Duangphet Phromthep, the captain of the Thai football team turned 13 while trapped in the cave. He was found unconscious at Brooke House College in Market Harborough, Leicestershire, on 12 February and died two days later at Kettering General Hospital. Following an inquest into the 17-year-old's death, a senior coroner recorded a conclusion of suicide. It could not have been foreseen or prevented as he was not known to mental health services, and it is not known why he took the actions that he did. The police investigation has found no evidence of third-party involvement or suspicious circumstances.
Liar delete this
Honestly, I think it's safe to assume it was PTSD.
Just because you're out of a horrifying situation, that doesn't mean the situation is out of you, that poor kid must've had some really severe mental scars, imagine spending that long inside a cave with no supplies not knowing you could be just counting time until your painful and slow death, let alone a 13 year old.... Of course this was going to cause great mental damage.
That is to say, "could not have been prevented or foreseen" my ass. If we took mental health as seriously as physical health, I strongly believe he would have been with us.
I'm surprised all these boys weren't kept on at least monthly mental health check ins given their circumstances.
It's really tragic how people will receive all sorts of donations and healthcare right when a disaster hits, but when the time comes to transition to long-term care and mental health counseling, all that support just disappears. Everyone wants to shower victims with money when they see a story on TV, but nobody is responsible enough to continue to support people through the years of mental health counseling they'll need. This poor kid was killed by the caving incident -- his injuries just took longer to take him. This could have been prevented if he'd gotten sufficient treatment.
@persephonenychta695 yeah that is certainly likely
It could have been compounded by other stuff like bullying too- I'm sure you guys agree that you don't need mental illness to have thoughts on suicide
I'm genuinely tearing up because this has been one of the most heartwarming stories I've read in a while.
As an anesthesiologist, I can't believe this went off without a hitch. I know there were no other options but the amount of things that needed to go perfectly right so many times is incredible
It's anaesthetist not anesthesiologist.
@@williamhornabrook8081 🤦♂️
@@williamhornabrook8081 Imagine thinking you know more about this person's job title than they do
@@williamhornabrook8081 Anesthesiologist is a real term and thats what they are if they used it I imagine. The arrogance is astounding. Anesthesiologist is generally someone with at least an MD and a specilization in the field of Anesthesiology. The meaning of anaesthetist varies between british and american english. In the US it is a non physician practicing Anesthesiology like a nurse. In british english it's basically the opposite and refers to a physician practicing it in the field. Anaesthesiologist is the most widely used term though.
@@XMysticHerox hey buddy, you have to have a medical degree in the US, feel free to look it up then correct yourself
Imagine what these kids and their coach went through. They were stuck in this cave system for 10 days, having lost all sense of time and slowly losing hope to even survive in the first place, only for a diver from England to show up and lead the team to rescue them. It's incredible that those first moments were caught on camera, it sent shivers down my spine to see that footage.
Incredible respect for the Thai navy seals, the foreign rescue efforts, and of course the two heroes who gave their lives in aiding the rescue.
0ĺl
Yeah scary, they learned one heck of a lesson I guess
Even longer than 10 days actually, 10 days was just when they were found but it was several days after that the last of them was rescued!
May these heroes never be forgotten
imagine being in a cold wet void for 10 night only for a a floating light to appear and say " ello lads, whats all this then ? fancy a cup of the old cha ?"
This is one of those moments where you get a glimpse and how fucking amazing human beings can be. The fact the team survived in that part of the cave and then the efforts that everyone went to in order to rescue them is so amazing and beautiful.
sad to learn about the suicide of the soccer team’s captain this week💔
i’ve been stuck in a cave myself (for almost 2 hours, so not anything like this at all), but i still suffered some mental trauma from it. but even i can’t even begin to understand the psychological impact this must’ve had on him especially at his young age.
rest in peace, Duangphet "Dom" Phromthep, the world will remember your name!
Oh no! Why did he do this 😭

holy crap i know i’m not alone when i say, i had NO clue how complex and frankly horrifying the rescue was. i cannot imagine being in a cave and told they were going to tie me up and sedate me. like nah man i’ll just die. absolutely beautiful, one of my favourite human moments.
"Look! A bat!" *stab with syringe 😅
I'd love to be sedacted ngl, I don't wanna feel, hear, or be awake for the journey through the dive. It pretty smart plan, although it dangerous because it never been tried or done in these conditions that why Australian Doctor thought more than half would die.
i love to be sedated at that point . i want to feel no hunger tiredness sleepyness etc at the same time .
You should check out the Nutty Putty cave accident.
@@FinnishArmy The fact that the lifeless body is still deep within the cave is haunting.
The fact that they could still talk after 10 DAYS in the cave totally baffles me. Without food, and the youngest kid was still alive, that too makes me appreciate how the assistant coach handled the situation. I believe the 2 Navy seals are happy in heaven seeing the 13 gentlemen smile everyday.
One of the lads died in the uk it doesn’t really say how but yeah it’s a sad story for him
Oh, I just watched that, it's the team captain that passed away, so sad indeed.
@@overlord_0150recently? Just saw this rescue, the coach died? How?
@@bobbythomas6520 Still unclear. It appears he might have suffered an injury during a soccer game and passed away in his sleep, but many details were not revealed.
@@bobbythomas6520 Not the coach, but Dom, one of the boys who was the team's captain. He was 13 at the time of the incident and 17 when he passed. He'd recently gotten a scholarship to an English football school and it seems as though he sustained a head injury during a game or practice. He was found unconscious in his dorm one morning and passed at the hospital two days later.
I really really did not cry the past 5 years or so. But as one of the British Divers says: "I am sure that you would have helped as well" is busted out in tears. I think he said it so purely. I don't know what to say. Amazing video thank you
No harm in crying.
I have no doubt if the roles were reversed, hypothetically, the Thai people would help a British set of kids and tutor trapped in a cave with same circumstances, or any other country for that matter.
We are all human beings when it comes to life and death. It’s only the internet that makes people doubt, unfortunately.
Bless you. 🙏
It's honestly beautiful when talent across the whole world come together to do something undeniably heroic like this. Events like this is why I still have an unbreakable hope for our species.
the thing that makes me most emotional about this story was told after they were released. because of the risk involved, the divers asked for the healthiest boy with the highest chance of survival if something went wrong. the translator told the boys just to choose amongst themselves, and they chose the boy who lived the farthest because they thought they were gonna bike home, and wanted him to get home first since his journey was farther.
😢
Uh please speak English, "the diver asked for the healthiest boy if something went wrong" why? You don't even explain this. "The translator told the boys to choose amongst themselves" choose amongst themselves for what? To escape or to be let out first? I literally can't tell what you are talking about
@@floseatyard8063
- Rescuers asked for the healthiest boy, that might survive if something went wrong
- The boys were told to choose the healthiest among themselves
- The boys choose the one that lived the furthest away from the cave, because they thought they were going to have to cycle home on their bikes
@Myeloon so they wanted a healthy boy to see if their rescue would work and they chose the guy who lived the furthest away from the cave to make his trip home shorter?
@@floseatyard8063 you wouldn't be able to understand a story for your own life.
Anyways, here's what happened:
•They asked for the healthiest boy with the highest chance of survival if something went wrong.
They asked for the healthiest boy, because the healthiest boy has the most possible value.
Example: if you had to either kill a cancer patient and a child, the best option would be to kill the cancer patient, the same reason they asked for the healthiest boy.
as in, the others would not be guaranteed saving, because of risks such as the cave caving in among other things.
This, however was not conveyed by the translator.
The translator instead asked the boys to choose among themselves to be saved.
The boys chose the one with the house wich was furthest away.
It seems they thought that they would all be saved.
Basically, they chose the one with the house wich was furthest away because they just wanted to be nice.
As they thought they would all bike home, and because his house was the furthest away, so it would take the longest to get to his home.
They aren't selfish.
when he said "what ultimately convinces him is not a change of his risk assessment but the realization that there's simply no better option" really comes to show how dangerous this entire thing was
hey man, did you know that the BIBLE GODS WORD is there and you can read it? WITHOUT JESUS UR GOING TO HELL CAUSE WE ALL COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD, AND ARE ALL UNRIGHTEOUSS NOT EVEN ONE IS RIGHTEOUSS, BUT JESUS GODS SON CAN SAVE YOU ! GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON THAT WHOESOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE,
WHOESOEVER FOLLOWS ME WILL NOT WALK IN THE DARKNESS BUT HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE ~JESUS , U GUYS FOLLOW SATAN RIGHT NOW UR GOING TO HELL FOREVER WHERE THERE IS WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH, REPENT TO JESUS BEFORE ITS TO LATE❤❤❤❤
The line that gave me chills
@15:37 timestamp of that statement
At 15:30 he assesses their chances of survival to be low. But as low as they are, there's still a chance.
this's the first video that i ever saw in this channel and i can't express how perfect this video! english isnt my first language but i didnt struggle with it at all , the man speak slowly and clearly that anyone can understand easily .. everything in the video is just soo good thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻 and im so happy that all the boys are fine 🙏🏻
Those rescuers are absolute heroes. When humanity works together for the benefit of humanity, it’s a beautiful thing. Instead of wars and exploitation
Kudos to the two divers. They took the gamble of instead of going back, they went further in with limited oxygen. Definitely a heart-stopping situation
Goosebumps, these British divers are elites. They deserve a million dollar each!
good
salute
endless respect
One of the drivt died ..after some year
The assistent coach wasn't mentioned much here, but he was a hero just as much as the rescuers in my book. Stuck in a cave with 12 kids and he was supposed to be the adult in this situation, yet he was only in his early or mid 20's himself. He did a great job at keeping the boys calm, and keeping their spirits up. He led meditation sessions with them and rationed their food. As oxygen in the cave got lower and lower "keeping them calm and leading them in meditation" was very important to minimize their oxygen use.
Let me add for al those getting upset: the caves were explored pretty regularly and all of them had been there before. The rains that flood the caves every year came months earlier than the usual rainy season, which causes the trouble. I don't think thats gross negligence on he coach' part. He didn't do anything out out of the ordinary going in there at that time of year, the weather justacted very diffrently than the locals had always known it to act that year.
But why didn't any of the parents know that their children were with him and I would think that would be something to mention to the coach as well 🤔
Imagine preparing to die with 12 kids.
@ei2u43 Exactly smh
@ei2u43 It came weeks earlier than expected I think
Mid 20s still a kid lmfao this generation is such a disgrace
Those two men who lost their lives to save those children are heroes
Both of them shouldn't join the rescue because they aren't professional and make the situation worse
@@Vladimir-Putin-1952you need mental help

I'm a diver, and I have sworn time and time again that I will never get my cave diving certification, because it's just too dangerous. In diving classes they hammer into your head that you should never EVER enter a cave without certification, because it's just so dangerous, and I have insane respect for people who must have heard those warnings, but decided to do it anyway because it meant saving lives.
Exploring the unpredictable cave is basically Russian roulette.
Yeah thats crazy
The amount of skills necessary for this kind of operation are huge and these 2 brits divers are absolute "machines". The intelligence they have, coordination, calmness, precision, analytical minds, problem solving with creativity etc. This whole operation is a statement of the processing power of our brain and how far we've come as a species thanks to it. No other species could have done that! The brain wins over body. You could have the best body ever, made perfectly for diving and still fail miserably without a powerful brain. I have huge respect for their minds first 👏
Fascinating how much processing power there is in a relatively small space.
Edit:
I got rid of my old comment because it wasn’t good.
@@KidPix55 People make mistakes and have lapses in judgement, that does not mean they deserve death. These were literal children and their coach, each of whom had families, lives, and aspirations. If your child, or anyone you care about, was in danger because they were trying to have a fun afternoon and bit off more than they could chew because they didn't fully understand what they were getting into, and the only people who could save them refused and recited your own words to you, you would live the rest of your life in unbearable greif and resentment.
Yeah what they did was stupid, but we don't learn by not making mistakes. I guarantee you they'll never do it again.
Yea. You have a good point there. I got rid of my old comment because, now thinking about it, i was wrong.
Ive seen so many videos discussing horror stories about cave rescues and the likes going wrong and being a tragedy that this video was SUCH a relieving watch. Thank you for bringing this story to life in such an engaging way.
This story is so wholesome and it all shows how teamwork makes the dreamwork.
I was a doctor at the field hospital that day. I remember every child coming out of the cave, shivering cold. We helped them breathe and provided warmth to them. After that, they woke up and became conscious. Dr. Richard Harris did an amazing job. He calculated the medication dosage perfectly so the children wouldn't wake up too early or too late. It's unbelievable that all of these things could happen.
Respect to u 🫡
Damn this comment deserves more attention.
Respect sir thank youu
Very impressive work done by all the rescuers. May God bless you all
This did not happen LMAO but seeing people believe it is funny
I love the togetherness and selflessness of all those helpers daring to do this crazy rescue-mission.

@@047Kenny Something like 40% of all cave divers die while cave diving. Every time someone suits up to dive in a cave, they're playing russian roulette
there’s one thing i never understood - if it was so hard to get out of, how did they get in? did they wiggle their way deeper and deeper as the water rose?
@@hanywhiskey They walked/crawled in. Then the water came and blocked off their way out.
@@hanywhiskey before there was water it was obviously easier to just walk in, I’m guessing as it started raining they frantically tried finding a good safe spot by going deeper and deeper
I feel sorry for all of them of course, but I can’t imagine how the assistant coach felt. He was responsible for them, the guilt he felt and possibly still does must be insane.
@@jayzayproductions5454 It’s a typo, the same way you made a typo with capitalizing C in your own correction. This is a RUclips comment, not English class.
Agree. I’m sure he never dreamed this would happen.
But he made a incredible thing for the boys...if im not mistaken please correct me if im wrong he is also a monk,so he teach the kids to meditate so they consume less oxygen because they are trapped..and meditation is the key to survive. So kudos to him
thats the coach problem..
they know that cave not a place to play joke...but why choose cave for training ....
Incredibly well put together
This is one of the most fantastic stories I’ve heard. I remember when this happened. I did not know how intricate the rescue was. How amazing.
Another admirable thing that cannot be neglected is the fact that all of Thai Navy Seals who stay in the cave with the boys have a chance to go out with the drivers. At that point where everyone including the expert cave divers themselves realized that this might be the last possible chance to go out before the gigantic storm come. But the seals insist to go and stay to be the symbol of courage and hope for the children. Moreover, the Seals also entertain the boys by playing games and singing during the time to reduce their stress.
The real heroes are the English and Australian men. How about talk about them. Navy seals and police were useless.
🎉🎉... This made me cry 😢😢
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m pretty sure they were inexperienced cave divers and used up all of their air tanks so they were forced to stay with the kids but played it off as staying to keep them safe. In reality they had no choice of going back and I believe only 1 or 2 went back cause they had enough air
@@Itzwapusk inexperienced? I think so
To those that blame the assistant coach, there is alot more nuance to the situation that wasn't mentioned in this video. The rain season in Thailand usually only starts around mid to late July. The coach and the boys went to the cave at June 23 and the rain has started unexpectedly early. Weather prediction in Thailand is not as accurate as for example, North America because the weather is very different and usually unpredictable, so there was no way that they could have known that the rain season would have started early. It should also be noted that the coach actually got the kids to stay calm during the situation and even gave up most of his food to the kids. All in all, it was a very unlucky situation.
So no one had a cell phone with a weather app? Just flip phones?
Edit: Okay guys, fine! I didn't know no normal person in Thailand knows how to go on the weather app to check the radar! Geez.
@@noazucar519 Did u not read the comment, it was unexpected that the rain season started early. They couldn't predict it.
Nah this is pure ignorance and is absolutely the fault of the coach. You don't bring a dozen kids that age that deep into a cave system with 1 adult present. Only a total idiot would do such a thing, especially if he wasn't experienced in caves and they clearly did not have enough gear in the off chance they did get stuck. Weather can change fast in any area of the world and you need to be prepared for it.
@@noazucar519 “weather prediction in Thailand isn’t as accurate”
Idiots. Who brings 12 kids in a cave...so stupid.
Impressed by the way you created this video, good job.
I've seen the Netflix series about this rescue. It's just as good as any good movie
Them seals are so unbelievably brave. Absolutely amazing. Everyone coming together to save these people are fantastic and awesome. This video is amazing and insane and intense.
Oh gosh. I don't think I'd ever seen a map of just how long and narrow the cave system was, and how deep in they were! What an incredible effort by so many people to make sure they got home safely.
Agreed - great to see. Also worth remembering that there would have been other branches and passages that aren't shown, making navigation even more difficult as it wont always have been obvious which way to go, especially in murky waters.
😊😊
get closer to God pls there is gonna be many people who arnt going to make it to the kingdom of heaven🙏✝️😊p
I had absolutely no idea how large that cave system was. Horrifyingly incredible.
This is why you should never ender a cave without proper training.
You dont know how deep it goes, what happens in there. For example, in this case, they did not understand how quickly the cave would get flooded if it rained.
Southeast Asia is known for a region that has the most insane and diverse cave system like this. Like Son Doong cave in Vietnam, probably had another world in there. This is what this exact same British diver rescuers team said about the cave in Vietnam: "Any cave in the world will be able to fit comfortably inside Son Doong cave when it's connected -- it's just outrageous in size." You can imagined how massive those cave are that they had their own wildlife in there.
@@roteschwert water erosion. The ground is filled with water. Over time, this can erode the ground under, which makes “underground rivers”
This is also what causes sinkholes. They are caused by thoses caves collapsing, forcing the ground above to fall down into the caves.
wow you did such an amazing job telling this story! and your animation were very good as well. I am impressed and subscribed!
I'll never get tired of thos beautiful story, bless all of them
Today marks the 5th anniversary of this incident. Huge respect for those brave kids, the coach, and of course, the rescue team. I wish them all the best with their future.
Rip to the divers
Ah yes, huge respect to the coach for going inside a cave during flood season and getting stuck together with actual children who didn't know any better. Huge respect for costing 2 people their lives and leaving a dozen kids with severe trauma. But oh he only went there a month before monsoon season was supposed to start, not his fault that nature didn't keep her schedule.

@@toxihex876hat’s your problem? They had explored the cave before and did not expect the rain to occur as they were inside. Those odds were very slim. Accidents will happen, don’t act like you’ve never made a mistake. I hope whenever you make a mistake you are belittled just as much as you are trying to belittle a man who tried his best to keep the kids safe. He rationed food and taught meditation to conserve oxygen. Get that stick out of your ass and be a decent human being.
@@toxihex876 do research before making points or you’ll be taking responsibility for the words you’re claiming to be true about an incident you haven’t even seen. The rainy season started early they didn’t know the children nor the coach, it was a popular spot with people going in for adventure often. They were just unlucky don’t blame anyone it’s easier to do that sitting on your comfortable couch idiot
It's an absolute miracle that none of the kids died. Every single person who helped bring them out are hero's they risked their lives for those kids and 2 of them losing their life without even thinking they all just jumped in to help. ❤❤❤ True heros
One of the boys recently passed away 😢
@@b4rricade331 what happened to him??
@@massabiq9015 he died of an accident which is all the information I could find
@@b4rricade331I still think it's pretty weird that there's no elaboration on his cause of death at all on the news after a few day. He seems like a really good ambitious kid too
Spoiler warning
Wow.... This definitely made me cry.
How amazing how so many people from around the world and the Thai navy came together and saved these precious, innocent children.
I was so happy to see their smiling faces at the end!
All of those men, both the ones who risked their lives and the ones who gave their lives to help these boys are absolute heroes. Mad respect and love for them.
I heard the story in the news at the time but only now I got to know the crazy logistics of the rescue, this was truly insane
One of the boys from the cave rescue has already passed away since then.
@@davidpark2509 really? What was the cause of death
Hi, a Thai person here. It's nice to see respectful coverage like this because let me tell you the Thai press were NOT. After the boys got out and recovered, one show invited them and had A REPLICA OF THE CAVE made and had them go through it to test "if it's like the real thing"
that's fucked up, have these guys never heard the term PTSD? trauma? mental health?
@@capybaraandwatermelonenjoy8208 considering the education here, i don't think so. there's another incident where there was a shooting at a mall where the gunmen took hostage of the people there, but then the press REPORTED ON WHER THE PEOPLE ARE HIDING
sufficed to say, they are very not good at their job
@@capybaraandwatermelonenjoy8208 as an asian, asian people are amongst some of the most socially inept people you will meet. These people have heard of these terms but call them "excuses" and "bullshit"
@@capybaraandwatermelonenjoy8208 Trust me, a lot of Asian still see mental health as is not that important and some didn't even know it exist, especially the older generation. As long as you not going insane, there is no "mental health" problem. Sad but true, and i am Asian btw. Hope the new generation will stop being so ignorant and take this important issue seriously.
@@Justin1an yeah, mental health is real and has science to back it, i hope the stigma around it changes with the newer generations and access to information online
This was by far the finest display of human grit and resilience. I have tears of joy in my eyesand immense respect for the cave divers and the entire team.
Every time I hear & rehear the details I can’t help but laugh in amazement... so many things could’ve gone wrong 🤯
I agree, its fucking amazing!! Gives me chills just listening.
I'm with you buddy.👍
You sweet summer child 😂 Your type was the kind to get swept up with Kony2012 😂
People always hate on the British for their history (understandable) but you can’t deny their grit, determination and balls
Simply freaking amazing... RIP to the hero's that gave their life for those children.
this video was so moving genuinely
An incredible story told by an incredible storyteller
Neo is great, he could make a video on literally anything and it would be top content
shut up
There's better narrators out there.

I was an helper that day, and you couldnt believe myself, but i was terrorized how those children came out of the cave, the skin was so blue/white. An immense clap to the divers. Maximux Respect.
Thank you for helping 🙏🙏
Hats off
How do we know if your not lying
I also helped that day. I remember everything so much. The challenge very challenging.
@@donovanisabeast1946 he probably isnt but even if he is lying, they probably did come out looking pale and there probably were helpers there that couldnt believe themselves after they saw them. Cant you just accept it
All the rescue team should get recognised forever. Such a brave task.
i remember this story being covered extensively but NEVER heard the part about them being sedated, that is absolutely insane. and even more insane it worked! great great video :)
RIP to the 2 heroes that gave their lives for these children. You will never be forgotten!!!
Argeed
I can't hold back my tears may God bless those 2 who gave their lives for the children
Bet you don’t even know their names
@@sagethorburn9821 bet you didn't watch the video
its unfortunate tho that only one of the men received a statue of them. just because the other guy didn't die immediately doesn't make it any less of a tragedy. rest in peace to both of those incredible soldiers ♥
It's insane to think that these kids survived the mostly dark cave for TEN DAYS, surrounded by water not knowing whether help will come or not. Imagine if they didn't have lights and the expert divers missed them... It's as insane as the story of the man who were trapped on the sea floor inside of an air pocket of his sunken ship
What is this story called?
@@maeg.9123 the story of Harrison Okene
Yeah they webt to collect the bodies and where suprised they found him still alive
INSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANE

What an amazing story and an video well done, thank you
This was incredible! Great video
The Amazon movie and National Geographic documentary are both incredible. But this is a very well done short form version
The Netflix series was also great
Thirteen Lives was the best version.
@@zZiL341yRj736 I liked the Netflix show better because it fleshed out a lot of things, but the 13 Lives film was great too.
@@zZiL341yRj736 13 reasons why was trash. Never watched it.
Disney did it first
I live in Chiang Rai (born and raised here). It was definitely a weird experience went I found out that the cave was just a 20-30 mins drive from my house. The whole city (Chiang Rai) was just people waiting to hear the news and normal trying to volunteer to help, people donating mass amount of money and people from around the world coming to help. The hospital of where the boys stayed was with 5 mins from my house. I really appreciated how even just once humanity tried to work together.
get closer to God pls there is gonna be many people who arnt going to make it to the kingdom of heaven🙏✝️😊q
@@blitzFN100r/youngpeopleyoutube ?????
did you donate/volunteer?

@@blitzFN100*cough* Thailand's main religion is Buddhism *cough*
I don't want to hear anyone suggest ever again that humanity is great because of X famous painting, or Y tall building, or Z latest tech invention. The courage, knowledge, resilience, teamwork, and quick thinking of all the people who rescued these boys and their coach is a greater monument than any of those physical things by far.
Great job with this video. I was emotional through most of it. It's incredible what our species can do when we work together.
Ah yes, the time we all had a glimpse of what kind of person Elon truly was.
“pedo” 😐
Jesus I remember when Elon called the guy a pedo and then cried in court that he was just joking
@@rebeccareturnmykids9207 It's a good thing that the channel omitted that segue from this story, keeping it focused on the real topic, instead of making it about the attention-seeking narcissist.
Elon was correct. There is a lot of power behind the people seeking to keep the truth here a secret.
@@RyanAmparo-tl you mean truth obsessed innovator.
Those kids were not as this story describes
I couldn’t hold my tears back when the kids hugged their rescuers, hats off to the whole navy Thai team and the English divers, god my Heart is heavy
Ugh same. This is the first mini documentary I watched on this story because it always made me emotional. Happy I gave in and watched one 😭😭 I had no idea how complex the rescue actually was

I wasn't expecting to cry but I did at the end
I remember this. This news had me on edge the whole time. I still cry when I see those boys huddled together in the dark.
11:15 This manchild got mad that he couldn't be the center of attention
pipe down
Well, that sink was not let in.
It was an Australian anesthetist who put forward the idea to sedate those folk inside to cave to get them out. It was a huge risk, which paid off. He was awarded Australian of the Year. Very deserved!
"Australian of the year" I do not care of Nobel prize, this is the prize that matters the most to me now. So badass
Actually Rick put forward the idea 15:13 and Richard at first said it was too dangerous but changed his mind 15:26 but it’s still amazing how well he administered and calculated the drugs effectively
Did they stop breathing while being sedated? I dont understand how that works
@@southeastlosabbas9123 ……no. They were anaesthetised to a level they were unconscious, but still able to breathe. It’s called a ‘twilight’ one. The person is not as fully ‘under’ as in a General Anaesthetic. It’s acts more as a sedative, which is what was needed, to stop the boys’, & coach from panicking at any time during their underwater retrieval from the cave system.
@@SunSunLittleSun ……he’s an Anaesthetist, that’s his daily job. Of course he’s excellent at it!
Just imagine the relief that those 13 kids felt when they saw that light come up from the water. Not realizing just how difficult it’s going to be to actually get out. I followed this as it happened, and this is the first time I actually understand what happened. This video is great.
How the boys get inn the water cave.
@@remusayta9937 there wasn’t water. The cave flooded with them in it.
This was absolute masterpiece ❤ subscribed
vibed with ttheir so much. unmatchable level of quality. will be recommending ttheir to more people!!
Even though I know the outcome, I was still on the edge of my seat. I think that is a testament to your storytelling ability. Great video! So glad they all miraculously survived.
I didn't know the outcome. I can tell you that the part were he explained to plan to have the boy unconscious and tied had me quite uneasy. It was a relief it worked for some of them, but then explaining they had to attached the scuba mark on the smallest child, I was sure he was about to say he didn't make it. To think there actually was a rescue that was crazier then the unrealistic ones we often see in child show on tv says it all.
“If you could something for someone else’s child I’m sure you would too, we just had specific set of skills that proved to be useful in the situation.” Hats off to everyone involved, and god bless the 2 marines who lost their lives for these boys and their coach.
hey man, did you know that the BIBLE GODS WORD is there and you can read it? WITHOUT JESUS UR GOING TO HELL CAUSE WE ALL COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD, AND ARE ALL UNRIGHTEOUSS NOT EVEN ONE IS RIGHTEOUSS, BUT JESUS GODS SON CAN SAVE YOU !

Peculiar set of skill
If someone made this rescue into a 4.5 hour movie I'd watch that twice. This is absolute insanity, imagine being that ONE GUY who's an anesthesiologist AND cave diver who just so happens to have a ton of experience with that specific cave. Just unreal
this is the first piece of media that made me cry
fun fact: one of the divers helping was later lost in a cave diving mishap himself and stayed put in an air pocket for 27 hours and was miraculously saved by a man in 45 minutes after arriving at the scene.
The individual rescued was a younger unnamed member of the team. Neither of the expert divers, John Volanthen or Rick Stanton.
@@JA-ez4to if you're talking about Josh Bratchely, he's still an experienced diver, but even the most expert cavers/cave divers get stuck sometimes, its just bad luck a lot of the time
also he was not 'unnamed' he literally got an MBE for his efforts in this rescue lol
@@crwydro The comments in reference to this video, he’s unnamed in this video if I’m not mistaken? No offence was intended. Pointing this out so he’s not confused with either of the named divers.
@@JA-ez4to ah I see, don't mind me then lmao
When the boys were found and they told them it had been ten days it made me teary because of how long they had been there and how they still held on, they’re so strong
use normal emojis in nicknames
@@originalni_popisovac ?
@Richard Gilley found as in they didn't know exactly where they were so they did have to "find" them
@Richard Gilley they could have been anywhere in that multiple-kilometer-long branching cave, dry or submerged, alive or dead. It took them 10 days of searching to find them. yes "found".
@Richard Gilley your missing brain cells
Great work brother ❤
I remmbered rhis long time ago. It was pretty much talked in news and papers we use to read at library. Learning the details now its amazing and pretty touching
When he said they were dragging themselves along in the sand, every Cave diver out there instantly knew the danger levels yet he had the humility to not explain to the general public that doing such a thing in such a situation is a literal death wish, especially when you ALREADY can’t see your hand in front of your face, kicking up more silt, mad respect to them 🙌
What's the risk ????
@@chintamanipandit37 it’s a huge risk. They are basically blind and getting push back by the water. So they are basically crawl/dragging themselves on the floor while seeing nothing to reach deeper into the cave.
@@chintamanipandit37you should definitely binge some cave diving videos on YT - nightmare fuel, but fascinating...

This rescue story has everything: International collaborative rescue teams, scores of willing volunteers, a strong will to survive while dealing with personal tragedies, phenomenal problem-solving efforts in the face of tremendous obstacles, and ultimately a collective human effort that displays how wonderful the human race can be towards one another when we all just work together.

@Richard Gilley the person Musk called a pedo was not a pedo. It was a baseless claim Musk made because someone finally told him he was an attention seeking idiot.
As a Thai, it was incredibly nerve-wracking to get updated on the news as the days went by to see if they had escaped or not. I am really happy this story is getting shared around the internet. There were many heroes who were the only reason the survivors were alive. Thank you for sharing this story.
By the way, sadly, one of the children who were survivors of the incident died to heart failure. He got a scholarship and was playing football in England man how tragic :(

Right, because they had no way of knowing... I would had died tbh I probably would have had a panic attack the minute I learned we was lost

Omg, I cried tears of joy when the guy discovered the boys and asked them how many of you are here. Omg, what a roller coaster of emotions!
Wow... thank you all to the divers and all the people for not giving up ❤❤❤
I wish this video touched on the standpoint of the people trapped in the cave, that's all that is missing from this. Like how they all survived for so long, how they found the place where the rescuers found them, etc. Other than that, I am surprised that you actually did the animations yourself, it's beautiful and professional! Hope your hardwork is paid off the way it should be.
I would imagine there isnt that much material to go on, and if you really think about it, thats a good thing. I think these boys had enough attention on them when they where rescued and maybe a trauma for life, no need to add onto that by bothering them after with questions over questions.
But I agree, I'd also be interested how they managed to keep it together. Even more interested on why the assistant coach would go this deep into a cave with football boys right after training
I vaguely remember the coach (?) saying that the way they didn't starve to death was by meditating all day, to prevent unessecary energy usage, and they only drank the dripping cave water, as the storm water flowing beneath them was dirty and could cause sickness. They would also only use a flashlight one by one whenever they needed to go to the bathroom, otherwise they sat in complete silence and darkness all day, just meditating and praying for the best. And while they were being rescued, the other boys were given some sort of nutritious gel to keep them alive.
There's a film called Thirteen Lives. It's excellent and goes into these details.
the Netflix docuseries and the accompanying movie takes all of the boys' perspectives
the docuseries really highlights in a cinematic format how everything that should have went right, went right and how each element could make it go wrong
I think Neo wanted to capture the full story of the situation in a more condensed fashion, especially since the details that weren't included already have their own medium to consume them in
@@pygmypuffin Great thinking and perseverance by everybody. After being there for so long, trapped in darkness in a concealed space as water is rising and potentially going to drown you with nothing to eat and barely anything to drink, and very little chance of survival, they still made the most of the situation and not one of them panicked.
