I still get chills thinking about the mine rescue in Chile.
I was just rereading the entire event last week.
That capsule.
They would’ve had to drug me first before strapping me in to it.
Get this .
If it had jammed it had an escape mechanism.
You could be lowered back down.
On a cable.
It was an amazing deep rescue.
All the background noise about the miners I ignored.
Chile really got it done.
