Two buried Miners found alive!
A few minutes ago a newsbreak announced the two miners have been found - alive! They are getting them out now.
Good rescue after 5 days. The families will be ecstatic, pity about the other guy though.

Wonderful,
Lots of sad faces fundraising at the Lonnie Footy for the miners family. Bet there some smiles now!
Someone has smiled down on them
