Miners freed from the dark mine!!! Yay!!!

Post #1

Post by WinePusher »

Question: If you were stuck in a dark pit for over 2 months, with 30 other people in a small, confined area, with only a little bit of food to eat each day, and little to no entertainment, what would you do to keep yourself entertained?

I would:

-Dig holes and chuck rocks
-Play hide and go seek or Truth or Dare
-Meditate

I'd probably do yoga exercises, honestly. It doesn't require any light or much space, it keeps me busy, keeps my muscles from going bad and hopefully prevents me from going insane. I'd also sleep a lot. I like to sleep.

Isn't it amazing that all of them survived and were rescued? I saw the rescues as they happened on TV, it was so moving to see the moment when they were reunited with their families :D I also liked that many people I know from several different countries were commenting on it. For once we were somewhat united over something good and not a tragedy.

Since somebody was getting food and water down to them, could they also get batteries, lights, e-readers, handheld games and blackberries to them?

To those who would thank God for these miner's deliverance, would you also blame God if they were lost?

A lot of this.

And some maths, probably.

While getting them out of the mine would've been a nice move on God's part, it would've been even more thoughtful of him not to put them there in the first place.

They sent up videos of themselves, so they probably had a camera that they could send back and forth. So yes, they could probably send them stuff to do: books, lights, etc.
