The Rescue of Trapped Chilean Miners

About the Book

On August 5, 2010, miners were happily mining in San Jose Mine, a copper and gold mine in Copiapo, Northern Chile. Suddenly, they heard the sound of rocks falling! The miners ran to the nearest exit and found that it was blocked. Then they checked the other exits, unfortunately, they were all blocked, too. They headed over to the safety ladder and started to climb. Too bad the ladder only went up 150 feet
