The Great Cave Rescue

This is the story of the miracle rescue of the Wild Boars soccer team and their coach from Tham Luang cave in northern Thailand last year.

Keen to go exploring after soccer practice, the boys and their coach ignored the sign at the cave entrance warning visitors not to enter during the monsoon season. The 12 boys and their young coach became trapped.

They were trapped in an air pocket, surrounded by rising waters, about two kilometres from the cave entrance. None knew how to dive.

The boys were found by a pair of British divers nine days after going missing and the international mission to rescue them riveted millions around the world.

Expert British, Australian, US, Chinese and other international divers joined the Thai Navy SEALs and hundreds of local volunteers to save them.
