/thai cave kids general/

Can't they just drill a narrow hole down to where the kids are for air? After that's done just slowly widen that hole while dropping food down it until it's big enough to winch then out

Divers finally reaching and meeting the kids yesterday, providing food and oxygen tanks

Whats the full story, why are the kids in a cave?

They have only 3 or 4 days until the next storm, that could flood the cave totally, so they have no time to drill.

Unfortunately, one of the divers, ex-SEAL passed away yesterday while delivering them food

He seemed like a top bloke, RIP

Damn, hope they're quick learners

how did they get caught in the first place?

This is a retarded idea and if they tried it it would prove his Hyperlooo project unsafe - one failure along 5 km of this tunnel collapses the whole system, killing everyone inside.

>team of football players and their coach
>apparently theres some tradition in that place to go in that cave and write your name on the walls for luck
>while they are inside, a fuckhuge storm happens, the cave starts flooding
>they go deeper and deeper inside, around 2 miles but the water traps them
>now not only the cave its flooded, but the water also collapsed some sections of the cave, making it even harder to swim back to the exit
>a professional ex-SEAL diver already died while deliverying them stuff
>monsoon season is about to begin, with even more rain in the coming days, its basically race against the time
honestly, it doesnt look good, anoter storm is upcoming and they are getting out of options, apparently they are teaching the kids how to use scuba gear and will most probably try to make the swim out, assisted by profesional divers, but theres a huge chance for most of the kids to die that way, since even pros already died in that water

see

Isn't clawing your name onto a wall, and 10 of your friends doing the same, not nice for the environment?

So this whole story was a FIFA pub campaign

They will 'miraculously' find a cave back entrance just under the word cup final stadium.

Nigga its the original form of lasting human expression

It's certainly going to last longer than those boys now

I mean it was going to anyway

damn...

And for most of history, humans have been burning down forests to make space. Doesn't mean we should keep burning forests.

how are /sp/‘s dolphins doing?

>Isn't clawing your name onto a wall, and 10 of your friends doing the same, not nice for the environment?

They're literally just scratches on walls. Seems nicer than walking away from the Paris Climate agreement.

Its not good, user...

fuck, poor bastard. They really were never meant to be in the water that long

poor kids. i cant remember the last time i felt so bad for a group of people i dont know personally

Felt pretty bad right now watching england play when I understood that it's not coming home

What kind of international collaboration is going on to save these kids? I know there are some Australians there. There are a lot of experienced cave divers from around the world who might be able to help, but I guess you also can't have thousands of people trying to get into the cave

>notice cave is flooding
>go deeper into cave
Seriously what IQ do you have to have

yhea they should have just swam back outside instead of trying to escape the flood haha

we’ve sent some cave diving experts from the army and the federal police. The guys leading the diving part are all british with the thai navy seals included. There are expert divers from all over the world involved, some from here, europe, even one from Israel
The problem with the Thai’s navy seals is they are trained for sea diving, not cave diving, which is a whole new thing to contend with. You need specialised equipment and training

why didn't they just know it was going to flood and not enter the cave in the first place?

it wasnt like a slow piddle of water was filling up the room/chamber they were in. its probably like hundreds of gallons of muddy water making it impossible to climb

>The problem with the Thai’s navy seals is they are trained for sea diving, not cave diving, which is a whole new thing to contend with
Honestly, they shouldn't have allowed anyone who wasn't specifically trained in cave diving to enter.

They don't have cave divers, their SEALs are the closest thing they have.

Then have trained foreign volunteers do it. I don't think national pride is worth getting SEALs killed

Mandala effect

Why not just don't care and let em die? Is rescuing them really worth it?

They are little kids. Isn't it heartbreaking having 12 little kids die all alone in a cave?? I really really hope they save these kids just in time to see the World Cup.

yes, they need to se ENGERLUND bring it home !

If one of them wanted to suicide instead of suffocating or starving to death and they asked for a gun would the divers deliver?

Doesnt mean we still dont
Or that we shouldnt

Is it too complicated to simply bring in diving equipment and resque em via flooded passageway?

t. never tried diving

What about digging a horizontal tunnel? It's easier you just have to locate them precisely.

Don't they have a bigger pump?
Also contact has been made, right? They're not low on food but low on oxygen is what I'm getting.

Why dont they get a very long tube and use that so that the boys can get air and dive out to safety?

It's too muddy and narrow. One expert diver already died and he was by himself. If they take the kids out that way it's a high risk of everyone involved dying.

i fully believe the first thing they heard from the brit divers that found them was
>it's coming home

since that point the only thing keeping them alive is the hope that they will be alive to see it happen

Easy for you to say but America refused other cunts' help when hit by Katrina.

The Thai gubmint doesn't want to be seen as utterly useless and their SEALs will never get any experience if they don't do the job.

That's what the plan but it gets harder as time passes on. The caves are flooding even more and there are parts where scuba equipment can't pass through now.

>isn't it heartbreaking having 12 little kids die all alone in a cave
Idk, not for me at least bc I stopped giving shit on anything that's irrelevant to me desu. Also, it's their fault to go in a stupid cave. Considering that these kids are local, shouldn't they know that they'd be fucked when they go into the cave knowing that the rain is common during summer?

Put a rope through the tunnel kids can follow the rope and don't need to see.

Fuck off Melon Usk, your idea is retarded and your tunnel fetish less than shit.

Why don't they just use the eagles to fly out from the cave?

just anesthetize the kids and put them in a bag with oxygen and push them out through the water lol

You are going through your edgelord phase right now. When you get to be older and you start realizing how precious life is then you will start to feel how other people do.

> Also, it's their fault to go in a stupid cave
They are kids and don't know better. Kids think they are invulnerable

lol

drilling is extremely slow, it worked for the chillean miners, but they could just chill in the mine for 2 months without a risk of drowning or running out of oxygen, those kids have a few days left

You'd have to lubricate them thoroughly

Then better drill the fuck out of that mountain and fast.

lmao what was Katrina? Bunch of retards who refused to evacuate sitting on their roof, getting "rescued" and then collecting welfarebux. What would other nations have done?

Well there are foreign volunteers but I assume no expert cave divers because if there were, wouldn’t they have already done it? Also I doubt kids their age will understand English that well

I'm not aaying the same thing as musk I'm saying like use a hose so they can breathe through that or even better just pump oxygen in through that
Musk was proposing some shit about a 1 diameter nylon tube, I'm saying just use a bunch of garden hoses

They were with their coach.

excellent post

Jesus chrirt that number bless you my child

>Idk, not for me at least bc I stopped giving shit on anything that's irrelevant to me desu

It's alright to be a psychopat, it's not your fault. But you should be put in a cage to protect society.

The coach is a kid as well isn't he? I heard he's 25.

25 is basically 50 in asian years

fuck food and oxygen, what those kids really need right now are some english flags and a plasma TV with cable access so they can watch the footy

some 25 year old boomer should know better

And the coach was an idiot, but he has nothing to do with the kids other than he failed in his duties.

Not to stereotype but males in their 20s are not the best for judging risks either, and the brain itself isn't finished developing til 25. They infamously do stupid stuff to themselves all the time, its just a shame that little kids were dragged into it.

Why not use a long enough hose as air supply instead of oxygen tanks? It would make the rescue easier, right?

These kids are 100% going to die.

Nothing short of a miracle can save them, and there are no miracles.

>It's alright to be a psychopat, it's not your fault. But you should be put in a cage to protect society.
But I never committed any crimes

Some Britbong had a good idea - in the series of controlled explosions create a syphon and drain the cave that way. There's probably more caves locked from the rest. Just blow the shit up in a smart way.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_Miracle

How fast can a tunnel boring machine drill a massive hole just short of the children?

Why dont they just cover the boys in one of those water repellent coatings and just walk through the water???

How is that suppose to help them breathe dumbass. Nobody cares if they get chocolate in their shoes.

The caves are completely flooded, there's no walking.

Why don't they just dump a bunch of gelatin in the water so that it turns solid and they can dig them out?

I think thats a good idea but the rain might fuck with it. Or put a TON of super super fast instant gel.

>In the past 48 hours the oxygen level in the cave is rapidly dropping

Irrelevant, oxygen line has been run in

cool idea: send a bunch of women down there and start an underground society

The cave system is constantly flooding, if they stopped pumping it would kill them already.

>since one of the team has discovered a light source

Proof? This doesn't exist in any news article.

Start pumping IN a TON of super super fast instant gel. or something else that instantly hardens that can help stop new water inflow as well if they do that because water couldn't get into the narrow passages if its blocked up with super gel.

But there are rescue dolphins there.

This nigga knows

Then send in the americans after the rain stops to eat their way through and save the kids.
