Just seen on the news they did sedate the boys! That was a pretty big risk in itself, but they seemed to have a pretty good plan in place and pretty much had to carry them the whole way through! I now have even more respect for the rescuers, if that was even possible!

It's incredible that they had them strapped under a diver whilst sedated. How the divers coped in that situation is testament to their bravery and strength and skill. How they kept the boys breathing throughout the ordeal is even more incredible though, as if there wasn't enough to worry about.

To be honest they would of panicked that much in the total darkness I don’t think they would of been able to carry enough air with them for that time.

I’m a padi dive master so can understand how difficult it would be for a first time dive in those conditions.
