  1. Hopefully Dr Fauchi doesn't try to spin this off as some underground flu newly discovered just to cover up new gain of function research

  2. Wow so glad he made it out , some dont😢

  3. They should have left him.

  4. These people really need some therapy or a different hobby

  5. What a testament to the skill and fortitude of these rescuers. Absolutely amazing rescue and outcome. I think they have earned the respect of everyone everywhere. You guys are the best. Hats off to you all.

  6. Administration just can't resist giving away millions in tax money to anything that doesn't contribute. Soon Biden will just put a giant PEZ dispenser of 100 dollar bills at every American border.

  7. I'm suddenly feeling claustrophobic just hearing how far below the surface of the earth he was.
    Thank God he made it out and can get the help he needs. Praying for fast recovery.
    Thanks to the rescuers. You all deserve to be greatly honoured.

  8. "Cave rescues are always easier said than done. Anyone that’s part of a successful cave save deserves extra praise." The energy in this video is contagious. I'm hyped!

  9. Marjorie Taylor Green, trying to undo our Democracy by removing president elec,t Joe Biden. She should dismantle QAnon, she's a product of them, and so are most of the Lunatics, who assaulted the Capitol…

  10. Kinda like if you go skydiving. You made a choice to engage in something dangerous. This man made that choice. Hopefully Turkey sues him for every bit of money they spent on rescuing him.

  11. Cave rescues are always easier said than done. Anyone that’s part of a successful cave save deserves extra praise.

  12. Amazing and bravo to all who took part in the rescue.

  13. They said it might take up to a week to get him out. They did it in 1 day. Wow 1:15

  14. Hey, Elon, what do you do when that happens on Mars?

  15. Thank you to the Turkish taxpayers who probably paid about $900,000 for this rescue.

  16. Yaayyyy!! So happy he is safe !! 🙏

  17. Lucky man. Great rescue!
