They weren't sure, but they thought they heard almost like a bubble come out of the water and the word, hello. And they were up on this ledge. The water had receded a little bit. And so they immediately kind of went down off the ledge towards where the water was. And they turned on their flashlights. And there, miraculously, were two British divers who had spent 10 days trying to get in there.

They had been there alone, without food, without water, without a way to call for help, without warmth. for 10 days, and they had been miraculously found.

Well, the divers say they were horrified at how they looked, right? They looked so emaciated, right? You could see the effect of 10 days of no food combined with all the effort they'd put into digging. they were even more amazed by the demeanor of the soccer players. There wasn't a single trembling lip, right?

They smiled, they seemed happy to see them, and they just were shocked that here was a group of people who'd suffered, in some ways, the most horrific deprivation possible, but that deprivation did not show on their facial expressions.

He reassured them that the boys were going to be okay, that they were okay, that he was looking out for them. He also apologized for what happened. But he basically said, I'm with the boys. I'm taking care of them. They're going to be okay. You're going to see them soon. I'm very sorry for what you've gone through.

Yeah, I mean, I think he understood that everything that he said was going to have a huge impact on the boys. And so he was very, very careful in a number of different ways. First, he never used words like trapped, right? He never used words like stuck, right? He never emphasized that they were in a perilous state.

Um, he always, um, another thing that he did is that he understood that his strength was their strength. And sometimes he got overwhelmed and he, he needed to cry.

it would break them and they would sort of lose sort of essentially all hope. So he understood that he had to focus. He, you know, understood that they needed a shared goal and that they really truly believed that they were working towards a real possibility.
