Amazing isn't it?
Can't see why SkyNews needs to have psychologists yattering on about if it is normal for them to be so happy and outgoing when they get to the top. Seems like they expect them to be dour Uk miners rather than happy Chilean ones!
It is going amazingly well, home it continues smoothly.

It seems to have been a very proffesional planned and executed operation. Chile can be proud of herself!

Oh and I have a feeling that the hard part has only just begun for the miners. I mean the threat of getting trapped as they did was something that they lived with every day, but all the media attention is something they will never have considered.
