The food was coming. 680 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:56,640 That's all I was interested in. 681 01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:05,040 That day, we got to have some power gel to give us energy. 682 01:11:06,440 --> 01:11:10,000 Everyone was a little disappointed. We didn't get to fill our stomachs. 683 01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:12,640 We were just eating to survive. 684 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:19,280 Once they came, I was like, "How do we get out?" 685 01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:21,680 The water still hadn't gone down. 686 01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:26,440 But they seemed unsure. They said they would let us know. 687 01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:34,560 One group stayed with us in the cave. Four officers stayed behind. 688 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:43,960 Who's that? The one with the dark blue shirt? 689 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:46,600 That's Ae's kid. 690 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,040 Titan! Titan lying down. 691 01:11:49,440 --> 01:11:51,760 It made me cry seeing our son so skinny. 692 01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:55,680 -I could barely recognize him. -He was all bones. 693 01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:58,520 But we were so lucky he was safe. 694 01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:04,920 We found the children. 695 01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:08,480 We were happy momentarily, but there was another challenge ahead. 696 01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,400 The next step was to figure out 697 01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:18,400 a way to extract the boys from the cave. 698 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:21,040 We thought of several options. I went as far as to consider 699 01:13:21,360 --> 01:13:23,840 waiting for the water to completely subside, 700 01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:26,520 which would have taken four months. 701 01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,840 In the meantime, we could send in food and water. 702 01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:33,520 I was shocked… 703 01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:38,600 when I heard that they were going to make us wait for the water to subside 704 01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:40,240 or for the rainy season to be over. 705 01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:44,240 Why did we have to wait that long? 706 01:13:47,080 --> 01:13:48,400 We felt discouraged. 707 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:45,200 We had to inform the parents. They needed to accept the risks involved. 708 01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:49,440 There was a chance that some of the boys would die. 709 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,320 Staying was risky, coming out was also risky. 710 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:55,040 They told me I had to sign a consent form. 711 01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:59,040 If I didn't sign, they couldn't take them out. 712 01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:05,400 If we waited for the rainy season to pass, it would have taken three or four months. 713 01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:07,480 Our chances would have gone down to zero. 714 01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:12,600 But if we took a risk, it would at least be 50-50, which were better odds. 715 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:16,000 We had to decide right away. It was a very hard decision. 716 01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:21,240 I decided that, fine, I'd sign it. 717 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:23,920 But while I was signing, I felt really conflicted. 718 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:29,400 I was scared even though they tried to reassure us. 719 01:16:29,520 --> 01:16:30,760 I was still scared. 720 01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:34,080 I was scared he wouldn't make it out. 721 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:49,760 They were talking about it as if diving would be something fun… 722 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:52,680 to not stress the kids out. 723 01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,000 I wanted to dive. 724 01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:03,520 We were ready. It was exciting! We really wanted to do it. 725 01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:07,240 We didn't know it was that risky. 726 01:17:08,880 --> 01:17:12,200 We were just kids. We just wanted to get out. 727 01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:13,920 That's all we thought about. 728 01:17:26,480 --> 01:17:29,680 We needed to travel a long distance. 729 01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:32,600 When we went in… 730 01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:36,520 we'd use the oxygen we had on us. 731 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:40,640 But on the way back, 732 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:46,960 we'd have to use tanks that we had placed along the way, to replace the empty ones. 733 01:17:50,480 --> 01:17:54,160 The starting point is only 300 meters from here. 734 01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:58,560 And there's a point where the water rushes in. 735 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,160 We have to dive through it. 736 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,040 Please, wait for tomorrow's update. We can do it. 737 01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,680 We're team… The SEALs team.

I was constantly calling for him. 753 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:19,200 I tried to tell myself that it wasn't true. It wasn't real. 754 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:30,560 The mission at the cave still needed to go ahead because the children were inside. 755 01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:33,240 This, I understood. 756 01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:36,720 PETTY OFFICER SAMAN GUNAN BORN 23 DECEMBER 1980 DIED 6 JULY 2018 757 01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:11,560 We could still breathe but it was getting harder. 758 01:20:13,080 --> 01:20:16,160 They said the oxygen levels were dropping. 759 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:23,320 I was extremely worried about what to do if they ran out of air. 760 01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:28,200 And more rain was coming in the next week. 761 01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:31,240 That could make it riskier. 762 01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:44,000 Today, we're at peak readiness. Today we have our D-Day. 763 01:20:55,720 --> 01:21:00,040 This was the world's first extraction method of its kind. 764 01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:06,760 The boys thought, once they got out, 765 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:11,160 they'd bike to their own homes and eat. 766 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,720 I asked to be the last person to leave. 767 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:18,040 The British divers would be responsible 768 01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:22,760 for delivering the boys to us in the third chamber. 769 01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:26,200 As for our part, we planned the operation 770 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,520 from the third chamber to the front of that cave. 771 01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:35,440 From the third chamber, we used about 200 people. 772 01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:38,040 Be careful. 773 01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:46,480 The army, left and right. 774 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:48,080 Right first. 775 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:53,560 I was the second person to leave. 776 01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:59,320 They injected me like this.
