How did the Chilean miners escape?

Welcome to History's Not Boring by Kidopoly.com! I'm Mira! And I'm Finn! Have you ever wondered what it's like to be trapped deep underground? Deep in Chile's Atacama Desert, an unbelievable true survival story took place in 2010. When the San Jose copper mine suddenly collapsed, 33 miners were trapped 700 meters under the ground! That is twice as deep as the tallest building in the world is tall! For 17 long days, nobody on the surface even knew if they were alive. Suddenly, a tiny drill broke through the rock and came back up with a note: 'Estamos bien en el refugio los 33' (We are well in the shelter, the 33 of us). The whole world watched in amazement as engineers worked day and night to build a special escape capsule called the Phoenix. Could they pull everyone up safely? After 69 days in the dark, every single miner was lifted to the surface alive! Join Mira and Finn as they uncover this incredible story of teamwork, brilliant engineering, and never giving up!
