I just saw a 5 min video on comcast.net that the rescuers were able to lower into the emergency shaft of the mine. 33 miners have been trapped since Aug. 5, 2010, that's crazy. The hole that the rescuers have dug to the emergency shaft is only big enough to lower down food and water to the men. I just hope they make it out of there alive. According the video the rescuers say it would take weeks to dig these men out. During that time, they may all suffer from depression, anxiety, and who knows what else. For now, they just play cards and make jokes to pass the time. I bet they're all going crazy to take a shower and to get a nice hair cut and a clean shave. I feel bad for them.
