I can't get onto the link, but if it's the same miracle we're talking about here, yes, it was truly great.

It's so nice to hear about a story with a happy ending, when it seems we mostly hear about sad news.  I'm so happy that all the men got out safely!  :)

I may be a 40 year old male from Australia but I shed a tear and got goosebumps when they interviewed one of the survivors standing next to his wife. He too was holding back.

I worked with someone who left the railways to work in the
mines at Moura Mine in Central Queensland. He and 12 others were killed in a collapse there.
In local news Ipswich has just remembered the collapse at a local mine that also killed 12 miners 30years ago.
