I did not mean to post two articles on the same subject but I just found this.

No problem. Millions, if not billions, are following this story.

This is a fascinating story; I just hope none of the rescuers perish from their efforts having to make multiple trips to their stranded point.

Good article.
They said they’ve already hooked up dive lines, glow sticks, and can store extra oxygen tanks along the way.
That seems to be a good method, to my untrained eye.
Also on a side note:
>> Still, the British Cave Rescue Council said
There is actually a club, that has meetings about cave rescues? There is literally a club for everything.

Is it feasible to drill an escape hole above the chamber they are in and lift them out? This was done for Chilean miners several years ago.

I wonder why there isn’t some kind of zero buoyancy sealed capsule that could hold a kid and O2 supply long enough for a a trained diver to pull through, or if some kind of cable guidance system could be rigged.

I still say build a coffer dam and pump the cave out.

The kids could then just walk out.

SCUBA with over-the-face masks and guiding hands from the military.
