Baku – APA-Economics. After being trapped more than 2,000 feet under the earth, the 33 miners in Chile have been rescued from the mine, Washington Post reported.
The 33 miners were underground for 69 days. Each man was raised through a narrow hole in a small metal container as the world watched and the nation of Chile relished in a groundswell of patriotic pride.
Chilean President Sebastian Pinera has been at the rescue site, cheering and hugging the miners as they surface. A field hospital has been set up nearby and therapists have been on hand to help the miners adjust to reentering life above ground.
"We always knew that we would be rescued," Mario Sepulveda, the second miner rescued, said shortly after he emerged. "We never lost faith."
The men were trapped underground since surviving the Aug. 5 mine collapse.
