The Miners Are Alive!!

[Captain Football]

Isn't this the best news to come out of Tasmania all day.

We may be at odds with the AFL over issues with the game, but it is only a game after all...especially after news like this.

If there is a God I'll have a beer for him tonight.

[Fev0lution]

Stealing my joke. Lame

 

[Captain Football]

Crude but....

one of the miners found alive was supposed to be the siren guy at todays game. This reeks of conspiracy!!!

What does that have to do with anything???

I first posted the if he heard the siren joke in the general board but realised it would get more coverage in teh tlc board so i deleted that one and put it in the tlc topic, then 2 minutes later you repeated a very similar joke. Therefore you stole my joke.

Had absolutely nothing to do where the topic started.

Getting bigger, they have just started digging for the miners.

 

[Bartram_Class]

Apparently they've been sent Ipods to ease them through the final stages of the rescue operation.

What songs do you reckon would be on the playlist?

Blue Sky Mining

[Katthawk]

they sound like they have the whackiest sense of humour.

I am so looking forward to them being out. It is so close and yet so far.

it's a great story.

ONE METER TO GO

 

[RoosterLad]

the Miners can see the drill thing now but probably wont be out till tomorrow

 

[roostersgal4eva]

estimated time 4hrs + 2hrs for the guys to be checked by medicos before being brought to the surface

 

[weagles_fan]

How long have they had no food for?

 

[Monkster]

How long have they had no food for?

I understand they've been sending food and water down a tube.

 

[MRobbo]

Both miners were freed at around 4:50am


Amazingly walked from the lift to awaiting families and into ambulances and clocked off at 5:58am


The left the site enroute to Launceston Hospital at 6:15am


FANTASTIC!!!!

 

[red+black]

great news. i woke up early at 5:30, put the radio on, and heard they would be free shortly.

great news. they reckon they'll be at the funeral today. don't think they'll play footy on the weekend though.

and i have to say it again, David Koch is an embarassing tool. i can't believe he jumped into the ambulance. channel 7 have obviously paid $500,000 for the story.

 

[Blues_Man]

Knowing Todd ..they will definately be at Larrys funeral later today
