[traingosorry]

Is anyone watching this?

So overwhelming - big lump in my throat

Watch Live Event - ABC News

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

I am watching...praying...crying..holding my breath
Amazing...praise God

 

[traingosorry]

One miner has already been reunited with his family, and another rescuer is on his way down any minute now. It's so risky.

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

I will be a long night...imagine being the LAST one up
Praying the Lord will go before each one, and be with each one on their return

 

[traingosorry]

I missed when the first rescuer reached the miners and the response he received. I hope they show again the second time.

CNN has videos of the first miner being reunited with his family

2nd miner getting suited to go up. The other miners hug him and wish him luck.

Barely holding it together here!

2nd miner is almost at the surface! His wife/partner waits anxiously!

I can't imagine being claustrophobic and having no choice but to go in that contraption.

 

[HotRhymez]

Hope everything goes smoothly and safely.

The second miner is out and HAPPY! He came out chanting and jumping up and down! So wonderful to watch this.

 

[Perhaps Today]

Praying everyone gets out safely.

The families must be so glad to be able to watch video of their loved ones from down below. So cool to be able to watch as they wait for the capsule to reach them.

It's pretty personal - many of these guys are right down to their skivvies!

 

[Mrs. Luther073082]

I'm watching it but soon I'm going to be too tired to stay up anymore. So happy for them, though

 

[Drax]

Praying everyone gets out safely.

Same here!

 

[Blank123]

I've only started watching now. praying for a safe rescue for everyone

 

[traingosorry]

4 miners out and they are going back for more! I hope everything keeps going as it has been and all miners make it out alive and well (especially the one miner who has some explaining to do about his mistress--may he live to see another day)!

This was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen! It's so weird how with all the coverage you feel like you're right there even though it's so far away! Did anyone see the tshirts the miners were wearing, with the Bible quote on them? I heard one of the miners was an evangelical preacher, so glad that God found ways to bless them and bring them closer to Him despite their situation!
