"The junior football team and their coach have been found alive in caves in Thailand after ten days being trapped by flooding. Wonderful news!  "
It is good news. The coach's engine has probably flooded. |

At least they're safe, experts are saying it would be very dangerous to attempt a rescue via scuba diving and safer to wait for the rainy season to end. They seemed in good spirits despite their ordeal.
Having survived ten days in pitch darkness without food is remarkable in itself, it would be tragic to now put them in further danger by rushing to get them out, so the long game is probably the wisest. |

"They can teach them all to scuba dive in 4 days.So they'll be out soon.  "
Unlikely they can teach them to get through quite a technical cave system unlit and unaccompanied in 4 days given that it took some very experienced divers to get in and find them.
Sadly I fear thus still might not have a happy ending aa getting them out will be extremely difficult but potentially a necessity if water levels consider to rise or conditions in the cave deteriorate |

"British expert knowledge wins the day again.
"
It’s fantastic they have been found alive. Heard it on the news last night. Britain do have some amazing trained search and rescue teams. So many times in various types of disaster. It a British team that has been called in.

Finding them was hard .They will lay guide lines to get them out.Ive done many cave dives and wreck penetrations.Getting lost and running out of air is what kills you.Now the route is known this is less likely to happen.Training them in a cave won't be easy but seems the quickest route out. |

The kids are malnourished can't swim and trapped in a cave. Everyone commenting is saying that it may be safer to leave them Thete for 4 months so despite your experience I'm really not convinced by your assertion they can be taught to scuba dive in 4 days |
