Do you have fears of dark places?
Suffocating? Being left for dead? Drowning?
Not being able to tell your family how you feel about them before dying?
These fears were a reality for a Thai Soccer team trapped in flooding cave structure. The rescue was incredible.
How did the kids keep it together and survive this ordeal?
Luckily, the Thai soccer team trapped in a cave mile underground with tunnels filling with flood water had a superhero for a soccer coach.
What was his superpower?
Ekapol Chanthawong spent ten years training in meditation as a Buddhist monk before becoming a soccer coach for 11-16-year-olds.
The coach taught the boys to meditate. This helped them stay calm, peaceful, and conserve oxygen. It was a life and death situation. Meditation helped the kids manage their fears. We all have them.
The coach spent an hour meditating individually with each boy prior to them being extricated from the cave.
This was one of the most challenging rescues in recent memory.
A Thai Navy Seal diver died during the rescue process.
