My teacher was discussing about them today - since it was Thanksgiving here in Canada two days ago, she was thankful for them finally being rescued after being trapped there for quite a long time.

I, myself, am also thankful for the miners now finally being saved. It's also great to know they are safe, happy and can finally go home. =)

Isn't that rather obvious? They picked the weakest amongst themselves to be cannibalized.
Kidding, you fools. They had food sent down to them that they rationed out. Duh.

You're hopeless. No one died, no one was cannibalized. They lowered food down to them for the last two months and they rationed it amongst themselves.

A mine shaft collapses and you are telling me it isn't surprising that not a single person died after 2 months?
