-[Namhom] Give me the keys now!
172
00:12:38,876 --> 00:12:39,751
Thanks.
173
00:12:53,709 --> 00:12:55,751
Excuse me, sir. Officer!
174
00:12:55,834 --> 00:12:57,459
Sir, excuse me.
175
00:12:57,543 --> 00:13:00,043
Please, I'd like to talk to someone
about my son.
176
00:13:00,126 --> 00:13:01,959
I believe he's inside that cave.
177
00:13:02,043 --> 00:13:05,043
-All right. What's his name?
-Mongkol Bunpiam. "Mark."
178
00:13:06,459 --> 00:13:09,168
No. He's not on the list.
Have you been contacted about it?
179
00:13:09,251 --> 00:13:12,543
-I haven't. But when I heard--
-He's probably with a girl somewhere.
180
00:13:12,626 --> 00:13:13,459
Officer, please!
181
00:13:13,543 --> 00:13:16,918
-[officer] Do not pass the gate!
-Wait. Listen to me. Please!
182
00:13:17,001 --> 00:13:19,418
Just tell us what's going on! Please!
183
00:13:20,793 --> 00:13:23,876
[man] I don't understand what's taking
so long with these rangers, Nop.
184
00:13:23,959 --> 00:13:26,584
Relax. Look. They're waiting for him.
185
00:13:27,543 --> 00:13:30,626
He's like an amateur mapmaker.
Out here all the time.
186
00:13:30,709 --> 00:13:33,584
Most importantly,
no one knows Tham Luang better than him.
187
00:13:34,251 --> 00:13:36,418
Wait here. I'm sure he'll know what to do.
188
00:13:36,501 --> 00:13:37,751
What do I do, then?
189
00:13:37,834 --> 00:13:40,334
They think I'll stay here
while my son dies in that cave?
190
00:13:40,418 --> 00:13:44,459
Right now, we can only pray
that the spirits stop the rain,
191
00:13:44,543 --> 00:13:46,334
making the water level drop.
192
00:13:46,418 --> 00:13:47,834
You sound like my wife.
193
00:13:47,918 --> 00:13:51,126
Look, Coach, superstition doesn't save
drowning boys, all right!
194
00:13:55,668 --> 00:13:57,959
[Narongsak] The rangers tell me
you are a hobbyist.
195
00:13:59,043 --> 00:14:02,168
You've been exploring the cave
during the dry season for years.
196
00:14:02,793 --> 00:14:06,543
Please, tell me.
What do you know about Tham Luang?
197
00:14:07,293 --> 00:14:08,293
She's…
198
00:14:09,751 --> 00:14:11,751
Well, Governor, Tham Luang is a monster.
199
00:14:13,459 --> 00:14:17,084
The cave runs into the mountain due west
towards Myanmar several miles.
200
00:14:17,168 --> 00:14:19,834
There's multiple chambers,
caverns all different sizes
201
00:14:19,918 --> 00:14:22,543
that open and then close down again
to narrow tunnels,
202
00:14:22,626 --> 00:14:24,918
just wide enough
to get your shoulders through.
203
00:14:25,001 --> 00:14:27,876
We've assembled a group
of local rescue workers to go in.
204
00:14:27,959 --> 00:14:29,459
[man] I wanna volunteer.
205
00:14:32,543 --> 00:14:34,543
-Is your son in there?
-Yes, he is.
206
00:14:34,626 --> 00:14:37,001
Ekkarat Wongsukchan. We call him "Biw."
207
00:14:37,084 --> 00:14:38,793
Can you swim, mister?
208
00:14:45,626 --> 00:14:47,584
Now, we start in chamber 1.
209
00:14:51,918 --> 00:14:55,376
If the sump connecting chambers 1 and 2
hasn't completely flooded yet,
210
00:14:55,459 --> 00:14:56,418
it will soon.
211
00:14:56,918 --> 00:14:59,751
Once these narrow passages
are filled with water,
212
00:14:59,834 --> 00:15:01,543
our only option will be to swim.
213
00:15:03,001 --> 00:15:07,043
If the boys are alive, then they'll be
in a dry chamber surrounded by water.
214
00:15:08,251 --> 00:15:12,043
Water is our enemy here.
It's the evil in the monster.
215
00:15:15,709 --> 00:15:16,876
[wind whistling]
216
00:15:19,126 --> 00:15:20,501
[loud rumbling]
217
00:15:21,334 --> 00:15:23,251
-Is that a quake?
-[Tle] I felt it too.
218
00:15:23,334 --> 00:15:24,418
[Phong] What was it?
219
00:15:24,501 --> 00:15:26,834
-[Tle] What's going on?
-[Phong] You hear that?
220
00:15:26,918 --> 00:15:28,918
[rumbling getting louder]
221
00:15:32,626 --> 00:15:34,626
[rumbling getting even louder]
222
00:15:42,293 --> 00:15:43,626
[Tle] Water! Coach!
223
00:15:45,459 --> 00:15:46,918
[foreboding music playing]
224
00:15:48,751 --> 00:15:51,001
Tee, flash flood! Lead them out!
225
00:15:51,084 --> 00:15:54,334
Hurry! We gotta go!
The tunnel to Pattaya will flood!
226
00:15:54,418 --> 00:15:56,501
[Eak shouting]
227
00:15:56,584 --> 00:15:58,834
[boys screaming]
228
00:16:08,168 --> 00:16:10,668
[Eak] Hold on. The flashlight!
229
00:16:10,751 --> 00:16:12,959
[boys yelling]
230
00:16:15,584 --> 00:16:16,418
[Eak] Let's go!
231
00:16:16,918 --> 00:16:18,876
[boys shouting]
232
00:16:20,126 --> 00:16:21,126
[Eak] Keep moving!
233
00:16:24,668 --> 00:16:26,334
[Mix screams]
234
00:16:29,751 --> 00:16:30,876
[Eak] Help your team!
235
00:16:32,209 --> 00:16:34,709
-[Adul] Come on, Dom!
-[Dom] I'm not gonna make it.
236
00:16:35,293 --> 00:16:36,543
[Adul] Come on! Let's go.
237
00:16:37,293 --> 00:16:39,668
[Eak] Move! Keep moving!
238
00:16:40,293 --> 00:16:42,668
[Mix] Go! Go! Move it! Hurry up!
239
00:16:42,751 --> 00:16:44,584
I'm scared! I'm not gonna make it!
240
00:16:44,668 --> 00:16:45,834
[Adul] Faster! Faster!
241
00:16:45,918 --> 00:16:48,043
[Eak] Pattaya's just beyond
this sump, Biw!
242
00:16:48,126 --> 00:16:51,001
Breathe. Please believe
this is gonna work out, all right?
243
00:16:51,084 --> 00:16:54,543
Right now, go.
I'll be with Mark, okay? Biw!
244
00:16:55,626 --> 00:16:57,001
You have to hold onto Dom.
245
00:16:57,834 --> 00:16:59,709
Mark, take a deep breath.
246
00:17:10,793 --> 00:17:12,626
[Narongsak] You think they drowned?
247
00:17:15,959 --> 00:17:16,959
I think so.
248
00:17:19,126 --> 00:17:20,668
I don't know about your boys,
249
00:17:21,168 --> 00:17:22,543
but my boy, Biw,
250
00:17:23,126 --> 00:17:24,293
he can't swim.
251
00:17:27,376 --> 00:17:30,876
Until they rescue those boys,
I'm going to make offerings.
252
00:17:33,376 --> 00:17:35,334
[Biw's dad] It's not possible!
Don't you get it?
253
00:17:44,251 --> 00:17:45,168
Come on.
254
00:17:46,918 --> 00:17:48,001
Come up and pray.
255
00:17:48,084 --> 00:17:50,959
If we have any chance
of getting our sons back,
256
00:17:51,043 --> 00:17:54,251
we need to pray
to every single one of the spirits
257
00:17:54,334 --> 00:17:57,084
and beg them to help our children.
258
00:17:59,834 --> 00:18:02,584
-[Titan's mom crying]
-[Titan's dad] They're going to find them.
259
00:18:02,668 --> 00:18:05,959
Let's pray. Come on.
The governor will be able to help us.
260
00:18:07,334 --> 00:18:10,793
This is a test. We've done something
to offend the spirits.
261
00:18:13,293 --> 00:18:14,418
Your poor boy.
262
00:18:15,334 --> 00:18:17,084
Adul, as I recall, is his name.
263
00:18:19,918 --> 00:18:21,209
Are you Christian?
264
00:18:25,043 --> 00:18:28,459
[Adul's dad] We do not believe
that we can buy God's mercy,
265
00:18:29,543 --> 00:18:32,751
but I know our congregation
is reciting prayers for him.
266
00:18:33,876 --> 00:18:35,543
As well as for all the others.
267
00:18:36,834 --> 00:18:37,668
Every day.
268
00:18:49,084 --> 00:18:53,584
Chamber 3 was as far as we made it
before the water forced us back out.
269
00:18:54,334 --> 00:18:56,834
This is chambers 4, 5, and 6.
270
00:18:56,918 --> 00:19:01,251
1.6 miles at least,
buried under 600 meters of limestone.
271
00:19:02,459 --> 00:19:04,584
Then you hit Sam Yak.
That's the T-junction.
272
00:19:04,668 --> 00:19:07,251
That's where the path splits.
They could’ve gone either way.
273
00:19:07,334 --> 00:19:10,918
If they hung a right at the Monk’s Series,
that’s where the water’s flooding from.
274
00:19:11,001 --> 00:19:12,668
If they went that way, then they
275
00:19:13,251 --> 00:19:14,751
almost certainly drowned.
276
00:19:18,584 --> 00:19:22,001
If they went the other way,
left at the T-junction?
277
00:19:22,084 --> 00:19:24,876
To Pattaya?
Oh, they'd have a better chance.
278
00:19:29,626 --> 00:19:33,043
You’re telling me there’s a huge beach
inside these mountains?
279
00:19:33,126 --> 00:19:35,209
Not exactly paradise but it’s elevated.
280
00:19:35,293 --> 00:19:40,001
It's a big sandy hill that--
Dropping down into a pool of water.
281
00:19:42,376 --> 00:19:44,626
And we can't reach there
without scuba gear?
282
00:19:44,709 --> 00:19:48,293
We're gonna need more than air tanks
and a diving certificate.
283
00:19:48,376 --> 00:19:52,793
The current in these sumps is fast.
It's filled with silt. You can barely see.
284
00:19:52,876 --> 00:19:56,168
We're gonna need extremely fit divers.
285
00:19:57,209 --> 00:19:58,043
Then, who?
286
00:19:58,626 --> 00:19:59,751
Navy SEALs?
287
00:20:01,168 --> 00:20:02,001
Sure.
288
00:20:03,334 --> 00:20:05,209
[chuckles] Sure! That'd be great.
289
00:20:10,126 --> 00:20:11,459
[Kiattisak] It's probably nothing.
290
00:20:11,543 --> 00:20:14,376
Just kids being kids, off on an adventure.
291
00:20:15,293 --> 00:20:17,334
Let the local authorities handle this.
292
00:20:18,293 --> 00:20:21,418
You don't want to risk losing face
over some merest problems.
293
00:20:22,751 --> 00:20:23,709
You're above this.
294
00:20:24,418 --> 00:20:28,293
Please, sir. The people here
aren't as experienced as I am.
295
00:20:28,793 --> 00:20:31,251
They've already said
they're going to transfer me,
296
00:20:31,334 --> 00:20:32,918
what else could they do to me?
297
00:20:33,001 --> 00:20:35,251
Are you sure you really want to do this?
298
00:20:35,334 --> 00:20:39,418
You're asking me to call for
the most elite special forces we have,
299
00:20:39,501 --> 00:20:42,709
who are a little more than focused
on their annual exams right now.
300
00:20:42,793 --> 00:20:43,626
Yeah.
301
00:20:45,876 --> 00:20:47,501
Those servicemen,
302
00:20:47,584 --> 00:20:49,501
they are not your friends.
303
00:20:49,584 --> 00:20:52,668
At the end of the day,
they will not lose face for you.
304
00:20:52,751 --> 00:20:54,084
Or anybody else.
305
00:20:54,793 --> 00:20:57,376
Imagine, if they help you
306
00:20:57,459 --> 00:21:00,126
and the situation
starts to go bad out there.
307
00:21:01,793 --> 00:21:03,376
Think about their reputation.
308
00:21:03,959 --> 00:21:05,334
And your reputation.
309
00:21:06,793 --> 00:21:07,793
Remember…
310
00:21:09,751 --> 00:21:11,293
when you first sent me here,
311
00:21:13,793 --> 00:21:17,334
you said to me,
"It's hard for people in the capital
312
00:21:17,418 --> 00:21:19,918
to understand what's happening
out in the country."
313
00:21:22,084 --> 00:21:24,918
You told me to put my faith
in the men on the ground.
314
00:21:26,084 --> 00:21:27,209
Remember that?
315
00:21:30,793 --> 00:21:31,626
Okay.
316
00:21:33,209 --> 00:21:34,251
I will allow it.
317
00:21:34,751 --> 00:21:37,501
But you'd better hope
those boys are still alive.
318
00:21:40,168 --> 00:21:41,084
[phone clicks]
319
00:21:43,334 --> 00:21:45,043
[Eak and Mark gasping desperately]
320
00:21:48,084 --> 00:21:51,793
[Note shouting] Damn it!
How is anyone ever gonna find us here?
321
00:21:51,876 --> 00:21:53,293
[Mix] I'm too young to die!
322
00:21:53,376 --> 00:21:55,043
-[Mark gasping]
-Okay. Okay now.
323
00:21:55,126 --> 00:21:56,334
[Mark gasping]
324
00:21:56,418 --> 00:21:59,001
[Titan] I'm only 11!
I got a long life to live!
325
00:21:59,084 --> 00:22:01,959
-[Eak] It's okay. It's all right, Mark.
-[Mark crying]
326
00:22:02,043 --> 00:22:05,793
[Night] It's my birthday. I don't care
that my mom bought a SpongeBob cake!
327
00:22:05,876 --> 00:22:08,043
I just don't want her
to eat it without me!
328
00:22:08,126 --> 00:22:09,418
[boys crying]
329
00:22:09,501 --> 00:22:13,459
[Nick] Are your parents
gonna eat it without you? [sobbing]
330
00:22:13,543 --> 00:22:16,084
[all crying and groaning]
331
00:22:20,876 --> 00:22:23,293
[Biw] Hey. Come on. Hey.
332
00:22:23,376 --> 00:22:26,001
[Phong] Get off! Leave me alone, Biw!
333
00:22:26,626 --> 00:22:28,626
-[Biw softly] Hey.
-[Eak] Let me.
334
00:22:29,834 --> 00:22:32,918
-Phong. Phong. Phong!
-[Phong] Go away!
335
00:22:33,668 --> 00:22:35,543
Settle down. That's enough!
336
00:22:35,626 --> 00:22:37,793
We're all standing here in our graves!
337
00:22:37,876 --> 00:22:39,793
No one will ever find us!
338
00:22:39,876 --> 00:22:41,334
[solemn silence]
339
00:22:44,126 --> 00:22:45,834
Nobody is dying here, Phong!
340
00:22:46,501 --> 00:22:48,293
No one will die in here!
341
00:22:51,668 --> 00:22:53,376
[crossly] Now, everyone, sit down!
342
00:22:54,584 --> 00:22:55,834
And you too, Phong!
343
00:23:03,001 --> 00:23:06,543
We can get scared.
That's fine. But don't panic.
344
00:23:07,043 --> 00:23:08,293
[Phong sobbing]
345
00:23:08,876 --> 00:23:10,376
I'm gonna get you home, okay?
346
00:23:19,626 --> 00:23:20,918
[wails]
347
00:23:24,168 --> 00:23:25,126
[man echoing] Eak.
348
00:23:32,418 --> 00:23:35,084
At the monastery, when I was growing up,
349
00:23:35,709 --> 00:23:37,251
whenever I was upset,
350
00:23:37,334 --> 00:23:39,459
the monks would make me
meditate with them.
351
00:23:41,001 --> 00:23:42,543
I didn't wanna do it.
352
00:23:43,626 --> 00:23:44,668
But you know what?
353
00:23:45,293 --> 00:23:46,334
They were right.
354
00:23:46,418 --> 00:23:47,793
If we meditate,
355
00:23:49,459 --> 00:23:51,501
we'll have something to focus on.
356
00:23:52,876 --> 00:23:55,126
It'll stop you
from freaking out like this.
357
00:23:55,918 --> 00:23:57,376
When our minds are calm,
358
00:23:58,209 --> 00:23:59,793
we can overcome fear.
359
00:24:08,168 --> 00:24:10,168
[Adul sobbing]
360
00:24:16,834 --> 00:24:18,626
[gently] Adul. Adul?
361
00:24:20,543 --> 00:24:21,626
Let's meditate.
362
00:24:22,709 --> 00:24:25,501
You don't need to be
a Buddhist to meditate.
363
00:24:27,501 --> 00:24:28,709
Do you wanna try?
364
00:24:28,793 --> 00:24:30,501
[Adul breathing rapidly]
365
00:24:30,584 --> 00:24:31,751
Let's try, okay?
366
00:24:34,876 --> 00:24:37,293
[softly] Close your eyes. Close your eyes.
367
00:24:37,376 --> 00:24:39,376
Good. Take a deep breath.
368
00:24:39,876 --> 00:24:41,876
[Adul breathes more slowly]
369
00:24:42,876 --> 00:24:43,709
[Eak] Good.
370
00:24:44,501 --> 00:24:46,543
Everyone, let's try it.
371
00:24:47,376 --> 00:24:48,668
Let's try, Tee.
372
00:24:55,751 --> 00:24:56,584
Mark, let's try.
373
00:24:59,334 --> 00:25:01,209
Now focus on the tip of your nose.
374
00:25:04,834 --> 00:25:06,418
Okay, and inhale Lord.
375
00:25:09,334 --> 00:25:10,543
Exhale Buddha.
376
00:25:11,959 --> 00:25:13,793
And inhale Lord.
377
00:25:13,876 --> 00:25:15,543
[boys sobbing]
378
00:25:15,626 --> 00:25:16,834
[Eak] Exhale Buddha.
379
00:25:19,584 --> 00:25:21,876
[chanting] Sabbe Satta!
380
00:25:22,709 --> 00:25:26,459
Whatever living beings there may be,
381
00:25:27,793 --> 00:25:29,668
whether they are weak or strong,
382
00:25:30,709 --> 00:25:32,834
omitting none, the great or the mighty,
383
00:25:34,251 --> 00:25:35,834
the seen and the unseen,
384
00:25:37,584 --> 00:25:40,209
may all beings be at ease.
385
00:25:43,126 --> 00:25:45,126
[silence]
386
00:25:56,168 --> 00:26:00,043
[Namhom] I've looked everywhere.
He wouldn't run away. He's not a bad boy.
387
00:26:00,126 --> 00:26:02,126
[officer 1] Could be more mischievous
than you think.
388
00:26:02,209 --> 00:26:04,584
Please. His coach would know him. Please.
389
00:26:04,668 --> 00:26:08,001
[officer 2] Hey! He already told you,
you don't belong here.
390
00:26:08,084 --> 00:26:10,001
It's better that your son's not here.
391
00:26:10,084 --> 00:26:11,501
We'd better be prepared.
392
00:26:11,584 --> 00:26:14,418
Now the story's on the news,
we're gonna see many more like her.
393
00:26:14,501 --> 00:26:17,709
You're not from around here.
Your accent sounds foreign.
394
00:26:17,793 --> 00:26:20,334
Please. I wouldn't lie to you, sir.
395
00:26:20,418 --> 00:26:23,626
He went missing.
He was-- He was with the Wild Boars--
396
00:26:23,709 --> 00:26:26,501
[officer 2] You can get in trouble
for falsely reporting a missing child.
397
00:26:26,584 --> 00:26:28,668
-Show me your papers.
-[Namhom] But…
398
00:26:32,501 --> 00:26:35,126
-Coach Nop! Coach Nop!
-[officer 2] Hey! Stop!
399
00:26:35,209 --> 00:26:37,334
-[Namhom] Coach Nop!
-[officer 2] You need to calm down!
400
00:26:37,418 --> 00:26:39,626
Stop it! I could have you
deported, you know?
401
00:26:41,876 --> 00:26:42,709
Governor.
402
00:26:43,418 --> 00:26:44,293
What's going on?
403
00:26:44,876 --> 00:26:47,501
[officer 1] Sir, this woman
says her son’s in the cave.
404
00:26:47,584 --> 00:26:50,209
But all the children
and guardians are accounted for.
405
00:26:50,876 --> 00:26:54,668
Please, sir. Please believe me.
I know my son's in there.
406
00:26:55,334 --> 00:26:58,834
Coach, my son. I beg you.
407
00:26:58,918 --> 00:27:01,668
You know my son Mark, Mongkol Bunpiam.
408
00:27:01,751 --> 00:27:03,168
Okay, yeah. I know him.
409
00:27:03,251 --> 00:27:05,668
But I didn't see Mark
at the field yesterday.
410
00:27:06,418 --> 00:27:08,543
Mark hasn't come to practice for a while.
411
00:27:10,876 --> 00:27:11,876
[voice cracking] No.
412
00:27:15,876 --> 00:27:16,709
I've come up
413
00:27:17,918 --> 00:27:19,209
with no Thai papers.
414
00:27:20,084 --> 00:27:21,834
With no documents at all.
415
00:27:22,501 --> 00:27:25,668
I am Tai Yai. I am from Kengtung.
416
00:27:25,751 --> 00:27:30,501
Why should I risk everything to come
if I didn't believe my son's in that cave?
417
00:27:30,584 --> 00:27:33,501
Unless I thought
he was really here. [sobbing]
418
00:27:37,459 --> 00:27:41,834
Okay, she stays. Until we're certain
how many kids are stuck inside.
419
00:27:43,209 --> 00:27:45,043
[Nop] Namhom. Namhom! Namhom!
420
00:27:53,001 --> 00:27:55,501
-Phong. Phong.
-[Phong groaning] What?
421
00:27:57,001 --> 00:27:58,084
What is it?
422
00:27:58,668 --> 00:28:01,043
What is it? Why-- Why you waking me up?
423
00:28:01,543 --> 00:28:02,418
[Eak] Come here.
424
00:28:03,334 --> 00:28:05,668
[Phong] What's going on? What?
425
00:28:06,376 --> 00:28:07,293
What's with you?
426
00:28:08,709 --> 00:28:13,084
Tee. If we go far enough,
we can connect to Myanmar and leave here.
427
00:28:13,626 --> 00:28:16,793
You'll be in charge while I'm gone, okay?
428
00:28:17,668 --> 00:28:21,209
-Make sure they don't pull any pranks.
-Okay. [moans]
429
00:28:24,251 --> 00:28:25,459
[Phong] What's going on?
430
00:28:28,793 --> 00:28:30,168
Phong, follow me.
431
00:28:30,251 --> 00:28:32,084
[high-pitched squeaking]
432
00:28:34,001 --> 00:28:36,626
[Phong] What's that sound?
Are there animals in here?
433
00:28:37,959 --> 00:28:39,043
[squeaking continues]
434
00:28:48,501 --> 00:28:49,626
[Eak] Wow.
435
00:28:50,376 --> 00:28:51,793
[Biw moaning]
436
00:28:52,376 --> 00:28:53,251
Mom.
437
00:28:53,918 --> 00:28:56,376
[groaning] We're out of Lactasoy.
438
00:28:56,459 --> 00:28:57,668
[Eak chuckles]
439
00:28:59,876 --> 00:29:02,334
Let's go. We need to explore.
440
00:29:03,543 --> 00:29:05,376
[Phong] You think there's really
a way out?
441
00:29:07,168 --> 00:29:09,043
[Eak] The path to the right is steep.
442
00:29:09,668 --> 00:29:11,168
But it's safer from the water.
443
00:29:12,584 --> 00:29:13,959
There is a way out of here.
444
00:29:18,793 --> 00:29:19,626
Phong.
445
00:29:20,543 --> 00:29:21,626
Slow down, Phong.
446
00:29:32,168 --> 00:29:33,209
You doing okay?
447
00:29:34,626 --> 00:29:35,459
Phong?
448
00:29:46,793 --> 00:29:47,668
[loud crunch]
449
00:29:48,543 --> 00:29:49,376
[groans]
450
00:29:51,959 --> 00:29:52,793
[groans]
451
00:29:55,168 --> 00:29:56,043
[Phong] Eak!
452
00:29:57,418 --> 00:29:58,251
Phong.
453
00:30:00,543 --> 00:30:01,376
Phong!
454
00:30:03,043 --> 00:30:04,709
[Phong weeping]
455
00:30:07,668 --> 00:30:09,793
[Phong sobbing desperately]
456
00:30:13,668 --> 00:30:16,334
[Phong] You were wrong!
There's no way out!
457
00:30:17,918 --> 00:30:19,959
[shouting] How can you be so calm?
458
00:30:20,043 --> 00:30:22,459
You know we're stuck in here now!
459
00:30:23,543 --> 00:30:26,501
I know there are people out there
looking for us right now.
460
00:30:27,626 --> 00:30:29,834
[sobbing] Nobody is looking for me.
461
00:30:31,668 --> 00:30:33,001
[Phong sobbing]
462
00:30:35,418 --> 00:30:36,251
Phong.
463
00:30:36,834 --> 00:30:39,376
I only have my grandmother.
464
00:30:40,293 --> 00:30:42,043
Before I left yesterday,
465
00:30:43,168 --> 00:30:45,459
I fought with her really badly.
466
00:30:46,251 --> 00:30:48,959
She's trying to send me
to my uncle's in Chiang Mai.
467
00:30:49,043 --> 00:30:54,043
[sobbing] I was so mad at her,
I didn't tell her where I was going.
468
00:30:54,126 --> 00:30:57,168
I even thought, "Maybe I won't come home."
469
00:30:57,668 --> 00:31:01,793
"So she can see… how much she needs me."
470
00:31:02,459 --> 00:31:05,709
[voice breaking] I didn't--
I didn't mean for this to happen.
471
00:31:06,584 --> 00:31:09,626
I don't want this! [sobbing]
472
00:31:11,376 --> 00:31:13,209
Phong, listen to me.
473
00:31:14,209 --> 00:31:15,418
I'll tell you something.
474
00:31:18,709 --> 00:31:20,168
All I had was my dad.
475
00:31:21,334 --> 00:31:23,334
[muffled Buddhist chanting]
476
00:31:28,918 --> 00:31:30,959
[distant gong rings out]
477
00:31:33,168 --> 00:31:34,126
But then he died.
478
00:31:37,293 --> 00:31:40,209
My uncle said he was taking me
to the monastery for…
479
00:31:42,543 --> 00:31:43,668
better education.
480
00:31:45,084 --> 00:31:47,418
It was so I could have
a better life, you know?
481
00:31:54,584 --> 00:31:56,459
But it didn't feel that way at first.
482
00:31:58,334 --> 00:32:00,501
Being sent away is never easy.
483
00:32:03,584 --> 00:32:04,626
It really hurts.
484
00:32:07,543 --> 00:32:09,668
But you are gonna keep going.
485
00:32:11,001 --> 00:32:11,918
[Phong sniffs]
486
00:32:13,501 --> 00:32:15,293
And you will survive this.
487
00:32:20,584 --> 00:32:22,584
[breathes shakily]
488
00:32:24,001 --> 00:32:24,834
Better?
489
00:32:28,126 --> 00:32:30,001
Yeah. [chuckles]
490
00:32:30,084 --> 00:32:30,918
What?
491
00:32:31,668 --> 00:32:34,543
Biw sucked a dude's toe.
492
00:32:35,251 --> 00:32:36,918
Thought it was Lactasoy. [laughs]
493
00:32:37,001 --> 00:32:40,001
-Never gonna let him forget that.
-[Phong] Never.
494
00:32:40,084 --> 00:32:41,501
That's crazy.
495
00:32:50,751 --> 00:32:51,834
Now what do we do?
496
00:32:55,668 --> 00:32:57,376
[Eak] Be careful. It's slippery.
497
00:32:59,918 --> 00:33:00,751
[Phong] Huh?
498
00:33:03,126 --> 00:33:05,376
-Eak! Wait!
-[Eak] Hmm?
499
00:33:05,459 --> 00:33:06,293
[Phong] Look.
500
00:33:07,084 --> 00:33:09,501
Over here. We missed it on the way in.
501
00:33:10,501 --> 00:33:12,668
Looks like some kind of writing
on the wall.
502
00:33:14,001 --> 00:33:15,334
You see what I see?
503
00:33:17,751 --> 00:33:18,709
[shouts] Yeah!
504
00:33:19,209 --> 00:33:21,209
[dramatic music playing]
505
00:33:33,959 --> 00:33:35,668
[man 1] Guys, the military's here!
506
00:33:37,209 --> 00:33:40,084
-They're here to help us!
-[man 2] It'll be okay. That's them.
507
00:33:51,084 --> 00:33:53,834
What do my men need to know
before they go into the cave?
508
00:33:53,918 --> 00:33:55,709
Before we strap on scuba gear
509
00:33:55,793 --> 00:33:58,459
and things escalate,
we need to take a wider view.
510
00:34:00,001 --> 00:34:02,251
The boys' lives are at risk.
511
00:34:02,334 --> 00:34:05,001
But there are about to be others.
512
00:34:05,084 --> 00:34:05,918
Yours.
513
00:34:06,918 --> 00:34:09,834
-You brought a doctor with you?
-Dr. Bhak is a SEAL.
514
00:34:09,918 --> 00:34:14,126
A combat medic and certified expert
in extreme health crises.
515
00:34:14,668 --> 00:34:17,876
The boys have been inside
since Saturday afternoon.
516
00:34:18,626 --> 00:34:21,501
We have no idea how much food or water,
517
00:34:21,584 --> 00:34:23,293
if any, they have with them.
518
00:34:23,376 --> 00:34:26,793
Given the obvious circumstance,
I’d say it’s generally good news.
519
00:34:26,876 --> 00:34:29,293
We know they're young.
They're soccer players.
520
00:34:29,376 --> 00:34:31,126
So we know that they are fit.
521
00:34:31,626 --> 00:34:34,084
As long as they’re not injured
or infected with something,
522
00:34:34,168 --> 00:34:35,293
they should be in good shape.
523
00:34:35,376 --> 00:34:38,793
A few days without food
is unpleasant but not deadly.
524
00:34:43,459 --> 00:34:45,168
[clears throat] Okay. Well, uh,
525
00:34:45,751 --> 00:34:49,584
as far as I know,
there’s only one way in and one way out.
526
00:34:50,084 --> 00:34:51,459
[Titan] This way out?
527
00:34:52,251 --> 00:34:53,376
No way.
528
00:34:53,959 --> 00:34:56,459
[Eak] Imagine a mountain, like a pyramid.
529
00:34:56,543 --> 00:34:59,959
Wide bottom, narrow top.
Phong and I already checked it out.
530
00:35:00,668 --> 00:35:02,209
If we dig up that way,
531
00:35:02,293 --> 00:35:05,334
we'll reach the top
in about five to ten meters.
532
00:35:05,418 --> 00:35:06,668
No way.
533
00:35:06,751 --> 00:35:08,209
[Eak] Well, see for yourself.
534
00:35:09,168 --> 00:35:12,251
Look at all this rough rock.
You can see that it caved in.
535
00:35:12,334 --> 00:35:16,001
If we all dig together, we'll probably
climb out into the middle of a field.
536
00:35:20,751 --> 00:35:23,751
Come on, guys. Who's gonna help us dig?
537
00:35:27,543 --> 00:35:29,168
I can help out with the digging.
538
00:35:30,251 --> 00:35:32,668
All right. Mark's gonna help.
539
00:35:32,751 --> 00:35:34,251
Anybody else?
540
00:35:34,334 --> 00:35:35,626
[silence]
541
00:35:45,584 --> 00:35:49,001
[Eak] I know you're hungry.
I won't tell you to not think about food.
542
00:35:49,793 --> 00:35:53,584
I can tell you that it's easier
to go without food than you might think.
543
00:35:54,376 --> 00:35:58,251
-I only ate one meal a day for ten years.
-[Titan] Yeah, you were a monk then.
544
00:35:59,209 --> 00:36:01,251
[Eak] You think monks never get hungry?
545
00:36:01,334 --> 00:36:05,043
At first, the hunger was so bad
I didn't think I'd ever survive.
546
00:36:05,126 --> 00:36:08,168
But one day,
a monk told me to drink water.
547
00:36:08,251 --> 00:36:10,793
So I drank. And I drank a lot of water.
548
00:36:11,459 --> 00:36:14,376
There. We can drink from here
because it's filtered
549
00:36:14,459 --> 00:36:15,793
through the stones,
550
00:36:16,668 --> 00:36:18,834
Try to imagine you're eating KFC.
551
00:36:18,918 --> 00:36:20,918
[chuckles] So, who wants to go first?
552
00:36:22,584 --> 00:36:23,418
No one?
553
00:36:24,334 --> 00:36:28,251
Hey. You go first, Titan.
You're small but you got a big mouth.
554
00:36:28,334 --> 00:36:29,251
[Titan] Hmm.
555
00:36:29,334 --> 00:36:31,209
-Go on.
-[Eak] It's decided.
556
00:36:31,293 --> 00:36:33,626
[Titan] Um, I don't know.
557
00:36:34,668 --> 00:36:35,501
[Tee] Really?
558
00:36:35,584 --> 00:36:36,543
[all] Drink it!
559
00:36:36,626 --> 00:36:37,459
[Titan sighs]
560
00:36:40,209 --> 00:36:41,834
-[Titan groans]
-[Eak] How is it?
561
00:36:43,001 --> 00:36:44,959
It tastes like my grandma's cooking.
562
00:36:45,043 --> 00:36:46,501
[all laughing]
563
00:36:46,584 --> 00:36:48,751
-[Night] I'll try it now.
-[Note] I'm next!
564
00:36:48,834 --> 00:36:50,001
[boys calling out]
565
00:36:50,084 --> 00:36:50,918
[Eak] Try it.
566
00:36:51,001 --> 00:36:52,959
-[Phong] Drink it.
-[Mark] Does it taste good?
567
00:36:53,043 --> 00:36:54,793
[Night] Yeah, it does. Tastes great.
568
00:36:54,876 --> 00:36:56,834
-[Phong] It really does!
-[Night] Tastes weird.
569
00:36:56,918 --> 00:36:58,251
-[Eak] Tee.
-[Phong] I want more.
570
00:36:58,334 --> 00:37:00,209
[boys continue chattering]
571
00:37:00,293 --> 00:37:03,751
Organize everyone into groups,
just like on the soccer field.
572
00:37:03,834 --> 00:37:05,459
We'll each take turns.
573
00:37:06,376 --> 00:37:09,084
And start saving flashlights
for digging only.
574
00:37:09,918 --> 00:37:12,251
Do you really think that's the way out?
575
00:37:12,834 --> 00:37:14,876
I don't wanna take a chance if it's not.
576
00:37:14,959 --> 00:37:17,334
I think it's worth a try. Don't you?
577
00:37:26,376 --> 00:37:27,584
[phone rings]
578
00:37:27,668 --> 00:37:29,543
TMD. Noon. Can I help you?
579
00:37:29,626 --> 00:37:30,834
Hello, it's Pim.
580
00:37:30,918 --> 00:37:32,334
We spoke yesterday.
-Hi, Pim.
581
00:37:32,418 --> 00:37:34,126
I saw the local news report online.
582
00:37:34,209 --> 00:37:36,668
Have you been able to find
the soccer players yet?
583
00:37:36,751 --> 00:37:39,793
Not yet. But the rescue team
is actively working on it.
584
00:37:39,876 --> 00:37:42,876
The governor would like weather reports
every hour. Is that possible?
585
00:37:43,459 --> 00:37:45,793
Yeah, sure.
If you need anything else, just call.
586
00:37:45,876 --> 00:37:46,959
Thank you so much.
587
00:37:49,293 --> 00:37:50,668
-[Noon] Odd, sir.
-[Odd] Hmm?
588
00:37:50,751 --> 00:37:53,251
The governor in Chiang Rai
wants reports hourly.
589
00:37:53,334 --> 00:37:54,168
[Odd] Hmm.
590
00:37:54,876 --> 00:37:57,751
Yeah. Call everyone back here,
and set up a meeting.
591
00:37:58,501 --> 00:37:59,543
Wish you luck.
592
00:38:01,959 --> 00:38:04,376
Um, I'm taking this as an actual command.
593
00:38:04,459 --> 00:38:05,293
[Odd] Mm-hmm.
594
00:38:10,501 --> 00:38:11,709
Everyone ready?
595
00:38:15,168 --> 00:38:16,709
[Vern] Chamber 3 is fail-safe.
596
00:38:17,376 --> 00:38:19,709
The boys have to be beyond chamber 3.
597
00:38:19,793 --> 00:38:21,793
[Bhak] Hello everyone. Make way, please.
598
00:38:21,876 --> 00:38:23,584
[parents talking excitedly]
599
00:38:24,459 --> 00:38:25,543
Our son will be fine.
600
00:38:33,668 --> 00:38:37,293
[Vern] You have to imagine that every
raindrop that falls is an added risk.
601
00:38:37,376 --> 00:38:39,834
The more it rains, the worse it gets.
602
00:38:39,918 --> 00:38:42,126
And it's all flowing into that cave.
603
00:38:47,751 --> 00:38:50,334
If the current's strong enough
coming off the T-junction,
604
00:38:50,418 --> 00:38:51,751
it’ll be kicking like a mule.
605
00:38:51,834 --> 00:38:54,293
So you’ll need all your strength
for the next sump.
606
00:39:01,793 --> 00:39:02,668
Go.
607
00:39:10,168 --> 00:39:12,876
[Vern] Not only is it narrow,
but the turns are sharper.
608
00:39:13,376 --> 00:39:16,334
There are more alleys.
Most of all, stay in your lane.
609
00:39:16,418 --> 00:39:18,459
Don't wander into the alleys
or you’ll get lost
610
00:39:18,543 --> 00:39:19,751
and deplete your oxygen.
611
00:39:20,251 --> 00:39:21,918
Watch your reserves.
612
00:39:22,793 --> 00:39:25,418
Every millimeter forward will be a fight.
613
00:39:25,501 --> 00:39:26,543
[diver gasps]
614
00:39:27,668 --> 00:39:29,626
[Vern] It's an underwater battle.
615
00:39:31,001 --> 00:39:31,876
Good luck.
616
00:39:43,418 --> 00:39:44,376
[Phong] Can you move it?
617
00:39:46,001 --> 00:39:46,918
[groans]
618
00:39:47,668 --> 00:39:48,668
[Eak] Not on my own.
619
00:39:48,751 --> 00:39:50,293
Let's try again. Now.
620
00:39:50,376 --> 00:39:51,918
[Phong] Come on, guys.
621
00:40:11,043 --> 00:40:13,793
[Appakorn] The situation
is more complicated
622
00:40:13,876 --> 00:40:15,584
than we initially thought it was.
623
00:40:16,168 --> 00:40:18,043
But we'll try again tomorrow.
624
00:40:26,793 --> 00:40:29,001
[all grunting]
625
00:40:34,709 --> 00:40:35,834
[all grunting, groaning]
626
00:40:39,043 --> 00:40:41,418
-[Phong] Oh my God!
-[boys grunt in frustration]
627
00:40:41,501 --> 00:40:43,334
-[Night] That was tiring.
-[Mark] Damn it!
628
00:40:43,418 --> 00:40:44,251
[Eak sighs]
629
00:41:18,584 --> 00:41:19,793
[gasps]
630
00:41:29,376 --> 00:41:30,376
[dull thud]
631
00:41:33,834 --> 00:41:36,709
[diver breathing erratically]
632
00:41:47,959 --> 00:41:50,501
-[man 1] They're coming.
-[man 2] This way.
633
00:41:53,376 --> 00:41:55,918
[people talking expectantly]
634
00:41:59,168 --> 00:42:01,168
[solemn silence]
635
00:42:01,251 --> 00:42:03,584
[somber music playing]
636
00:42:33,918 --> 00:42:36,334
[people muttering worriedly]
637
00:42:39,584 --> 00:42:42,668
[Narongsak] The boys
have been inside for four days,
638
00:42:42,751 --> 00:42:44,626
and we haven't made any progress.
639
00:42:44,709 --> 00:42:46,334
They don't have many more days.
640
00:42:46,418 --> 00:42:49,584
I will not be reckless with my men.
641
00:42:50,293 --> 00:42:52,834
We will move as fast as it is safe to.
642
00:42:52,918 --> 00:42:54,751
I'm not asking for recklessness.
643
00:42:54,834 --> 00:42:56,959
Nor am I questioning your system.
644
00:42:57,043 --> 00:42:58,626
Systems save lives.
645
00:42:59,418 --> 00:43:02,126
But we need to change tactics.
646
00:43:02,209 --> 00:43:04,751
We haven't even made it to chamber 4.
647
00:43:04,834 --> 00:43:06,501
I’m open to ideas.
648
00:43:08,626 --> 00:43:10,543
I think we need specialists.
649
00:43:11,751 --> 00:43:13,251
You are the specialists.
650
00:43:13,334 --> 00:43:16,626
There’s no one better
at underwater diving than Navy SEALs.
651
00:43:16,709 --> 00:43:19,043
I’m a doctor, but I’m not a surgeon.
652
00:43:19,126 --> 00:43:21,459
Can I perform surgery if I have to?
653
00:43:21,543 --> 00:43:25,001
Sure. But you wouldn't want me to
because that's not my specialty.
654
00:43:25,501 --> 00:43:27,168
I put myself on the line
655
00:43:28,001 --> 00:43:31,293
with the ministers in Bangkok
to get you all here.
656
00:43:31,376 --> 00:43:33,251
[yells] Now you're saying
you cannot do it!
657
00:43:33,334 --> 00:43:34,168
[Chet] Governor,
658
00:43:34,834 --> 00:43:35,793
we’re SEALs.
659
00:43:36,626 --> 00:43:38,293
We’re trained for combat diving.
660
00:43:38,376 --> 00:43:42,043
Beachheads, limpet mines,
fast attack boats.
661
00:43:42,126 --> 00:43:44,334
But here, we have to learn as we go.
662
00:43:44,418 --> 00:43:45,959
We've never done this before.
663
00:43:46,959 --> 00:43:47,793
Okay.
664
00:43:50,084 --> 00:43:50,959
Then who has?
665
00:43:52,084 --> 00:43:54,334
[Vern] Governor. I have an idea.
666
00:43:56,501 --> 00:43:58,459
First, you wanted Navy SEALs.
667
00:43:59,459 --> 00:44:03,043
[angrily] And now, I just heard
from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
668
00:44:03,126 --> 00:44:06,376
that you have divers from half a dozen
other countries coming in?
669
00:44:07,251 --> 00:44:09,168
[shouting] Have you lost your mind?
670
00:44:09,251 --> 00:44:10,751
It's been four days.
671
00:44:11,751 --> 00:44:14,751
The doctor's saying
that they're beginning to starve.
672
00:44:14,834 --> 00:44:17,918
Would you rather
let the boys die in the cave, huh?
673
00:44:26,543 --> 00:44:29,001
I'd rather you consider
they may not be alive in there
674
00:44:29,084 --> 00:44:31,626
before you make foreigners
aware of our predicament.
675
00:44:38,793 --> 00:44:40,876
There's no coming back from this now.
676
00:44:41,834 --> 00:44:44,418
People might think
you're doing this to save face.
677
00:44:46,084 --> 00:44:47,709
But you can't save face
678
00:44:49,126 --> 00:44:52,668
for an entire government,
the whole of Thailand.
679
00:44:53,251 --> 00:44:55,418
[unheard dialogue]
680
00:44:55,501 --> 00:44:58,793
[Kiattisak] If it doesn't work out,
no one will touch you.
681
00:44:58,876 --> 00:45:01,209
You'll be lucky to just never work again.
682
00:45:01,751 --> 00:45:03,418
No second chances here.
683
00:45:04,793 --> 00:45:06,001
Don't fail.
684
00:45:11,501 --> 00:45:13,459
-[phone clicks loudly]
-[inhales deeply]
685
00:45:17,168 --> 00:45:20,543
[Mix] At least no one will die of boredom
from my dad telling that story
686
00:45:20,626 --> 00:45:23,209
about how his friend
got trapped in a cave ever again.
687
00:45:23,793 --> 00:45:26,959
Now he can talk about
how his son got trapped with his team.
688
00:45:27,043 --> 00:45:28,459
-[Note chuckles]
-Wanna hamburger?
689
00:45:28,543 --> 00:45:30,126
-[Tle] Yeah. I do.
-Here.
690
00:45:30,626 --> 00:45:32,584
-Hey, I want pork.
-[Mix] Just a minute.
691
00:45:33,084 --> 00:45:34,251
-[Tle] Mix.
-Huh?
692
00:45:34,334 --> 00:45:36,001
-You forgot the sauce.
-Oh really?
693
00:45:36,084 --> 00:45:38,251
-Where's your appetite, man?
-[Tle chuckles]
694
00:45:38,334 --> 00:45:39,543
-[Tle] You.
-Don't be picky.
695
00:45:39,626 --> 00:45:41,334
[Tee] Shift change! Note, you're up.
696
00:45:41,418 --> 00:45:42,501
-[Note sighs]
-[Tee] Go.
697
00:45:42,584 --> 00:45:45,543
-I'm waiting for my pork.
-[Tee] You'll have to take it home.
698
00:45:45,626 --> 00:45:47,501
-Go.
-[Note] You're such a spoilsport.
699
00:45:48,001 --> 00:45:49,626
-Is my grilled pork ready?
-Sure.
700
00:45:49,709 --> 00:45:51,418
-[Note] Thank you.
-[Tee] Let's go.
701
00:45:52,418 --> 00:45:54,751
[Note] You're always
interrupting my meal, Tee.
702
00:45:56,459 --> 00:45:57,668
Tle. Tle.
703
00:45:57,751 --> 00:45:58,584
[Tle] Huh?
704
00:45:59,084 --> 00:46:02,293
Hey, it's your turn. How long
do you think before he realizes it?
705
00:46:03,834 --> 00:46:06,709
Oh, man, I don't know.
He'll be pretty pissed off.
706
00:46:06,793 --> 00:46:08,501
-At you!
-[laughs] Oh yeah.
707
00:46:15,918 --> 00:46:18,668
If anyone can get those boys out,
it's these guys.
708
00:46:18,751 --> 00:46:22,459
They've come from, uh, Finland,
Canada, Ukraine by way of Cyprus,
709
00:46:22,543 --> 00:46:24,793
oh, and my first love, the United Kingdom.
710
00:46:24,876 --> 00:46:28,084
Rick Stanton and John Volanthen,
leaders of the pack.
711
00:46:28,584 --> 00:46:30,584
Thank you for coming all this way.
712
00:46:31,293 --> 00:46:32,251
And so quickly.
713
00:46:32,334 --> 00:46:36,209
The SEALs can help you
with the scuba gear and anything you need.
714
00:46:36,709 --> 00:46:41,084
Oh, uh, we appreciate that,
but, uh, we only dive with our own gear.
715
00:46:41,168 --> 00:46:43,584
You think your gear is better
than my SEALs gear?
716
00:46:43,668 --> 00:46:46,043
We find the gear
that open water divers use
717
00:46:46,126 --> 00:46:47,751
doesn't work for caves.
718
00:46:48,334 --> 00:46:50,834
We tuck our air tanks here, under the arm,
719
00:46:50,918 --> 00:46:53,376
on the side,
so we're not bumping the ceiling.
720
00:46:53,459 --> 00:46:54,959
Uh, water-light helmets,
721
00:46:55,043 --> 00:46:58,793
floats, doesn't sink,
and protects your head from stalactites.
722
00:46:58,876 --> 00:47:00,584
The mask is secured underneath.
723
00:47:00,668 --> 00:47:01,959
What is that?
724
00:47:02,043 --> 00:47:04,918
-Oh, that's, uh, that's my wing.
-Your what?
725
00:47:05,001 --> 00:47:07,418
It's a buoyancy device I fashioned myself,
726
00:47:07,501 --> 00:47:10,459
uh, out of an inner tube
of a motorbike tire.
727
00:47:10,959 --> 00:47:11,918
Works a treat.
728
00:47:15,918 --> 00:47:18,501
-Doesn't it, John?
-It's an inflatable ballast.
729
00:47:18,584 --> 00:47:20,084
Keeps you level in the water.
730
00:47:20,168 --> 00:47:22,793
So you're not constantly bumping
into the stalagmites on the floor,
731
00:47:22,876 --> 00:47:25,918
which are very sharp
and will cut you and your suit up.
732
00:47:26,459 --> 00:47:30,418
All these will enable you
to make forward progress?
733
00:47:30,501 --> 00:47:32,584
[John] Only way that's possible
in the silt water…
734
00:47:32,668 --> 00:47:35,584
Only way you have a chance
in the current is to lay the guideline.
735
00:47:35,668 --> 00:47:38,418
From the first chamber
to as far as it takes to find them.
736
00:47:38,501 --> 00:47:40,501
Now, the guideline is like
737
00:47:41,459 --> 00:47:45,209
Ariadne's thread to Theseus
in the labyrinth of the Minotaur.
738
00:47:46,084 --> 00:47:47,209
[Vern snickers]
739
00:47:48,668 --> 00:47:50,501
Without it, we're all blind.
740
00:47:50,584 --> 00:47:53,084
We lose time and oxygen
searching out the blind alleys.
741
00:47:53,168 --> 00:47:55,251
And we have to
relearn the route every time.
742
00:47:55,334 --> 00:47:57,376
So, instead, we secure it,
743
00:47:57,459 --> 00:47:59,418
tying glow sticks on for visibility.
744
00:47:59,501 --> 00:48:02,293
And the next man comes along, adds to it.
745
00:48:02,376 --> 00:48:04,459
What else? What else do you need from us?
746
00:48:04,543 --> 00:48:07,459
Rope. And lots of it.
747
00:48:07,543 --> 00:48:10,459
I'll find you the rope.
Get prepared to dive.
748
00:48:11,293 --> 00:48:12,501
[dramatic music playing]
749
00:48:16,709 --> 00:48:19,418
[Appakorn] We must move
safely but urgently.
750
00:48:19,501 --> 00:48:21,918
The foreign divers
will lay down the guideline
751
00:48:22,418 --> 00:48:24,876
while we pre-position supplies
in each chamber.
752
00:48:29,043 --> 00:48:33,626
In the event you find the boys,
I'm issuing you all extra gel packs.
753
00:48:37,251 --> 00:48:38,626
Why bother with this, huh?
754
00:48:39,126 --> 00:48:41,543
The kids are probably already dead.
755
00:48:42,251 --> 00:48:44,834
[Night's dad shouting]
Night! Please! Come home!
756
00:48:44,918 --> 00:48:49,293
[Tle's dad shouting] Tle! It's me! Dad!
757
00:48:49,376 --> 00:48:51,626
We may not be there to help find them,
758
00:48:52,126 --> 00:48:54,543
but we can have faith.
759
00:48:54,626 --> 00:48:56,084
It's the best we can do right now.
760
00:49:04,168 --> 00:49:07,084
The boys' bodies are now entering ketosis,
761
00:49:07,168 --> 00:49:09,293
the state of burning all their fat stores.
762
00:49:13,834 --> 00:49:17,251
Their bodies are now starting
to eat their own muscles to stay alive.
763
00:49:18,084 --> 00:49:21,626
Whatever strength they have,
they'll be fighting to keep.
764
00:49:29,709 --> 00:49:31,626
[Night's dad shouting]
Please come back home!
765
00:49:31,709 --> 00:49:32,876
Night!
766
00:49:33,501 --> 00:49:35,626
Please! Let's go home together!
767
00:49:42,293 --> 00:49:44,834
[Bhak] If they have
a clean source of water at all,
768
00:49:44,918 --> 00:49:46,918
they might have a day or two left.
769
00:49:50,959 --> 00:49:53,959
And as the neuro and limbic systems
start to malfunction,
770
00:49:54,584 --> 00:49:56,334
they will have hallucinations.
771
00:49:56,418 --> 00:49:58,418
[female voice echoing] Biw. Biw.
772
00:49:59,584 --> 00:50:00,459
[Biw] Princess?
773
00:50:11,501 --> 00:50:13,668
[Tle's dad shouting] Tle! My son!
774
00:50:13,751 --> 00:50:15,834
[Night's dad shouting]
Daddy's waiting for you!
775
00:50:22,418 --> 00:50:26,043
[Bhak] The real danger now is that
they're in a chamber that's too small.
776
00:50:27,043 --> 00:50:30,043
They've depleted
their oxygen levels to toxic.
777
00:50:30,126 --> 00:50:33,709
Dioxide buildup in the lungs
will eventually cause hypoxia,
778
00:50:35,043 --> 00:50:36,876
which means their hearts could stop.
779
00:50:46,834 --> 00:50:47,918
Eight days.
780
00:50:49,126 --> 00:50:51,709
They'll start to have
motor muscle trouble now
781
00:50:51,793 --> 00:50:53,543
if they can still move at all.
782
00:50:55,001 --> 00:50:57,126
And, in addition to hallucinations,
783
00:50:58,251 --> 00:51:00,834
their internal organs
are starting to lose function.
784
00:51:02,543 --> 00:51:05,084
The strain is now affecting
their nervous systems.
785
00:51:06,709 --> 00:51:07,959
They may not know it yet…
786
00:51:10,376 --> 00:51:11,459
but they are dying.
787
00:51:11,959 --> 00:51:16,251
[Adul humming]
788
00:51:16,334 --> 00:51:18,543
[Mark coughing]
789
00:51:27,751 --> 00:51:29,376
[Eak] Titan, how are the others?
790
00:51:31,251 --> 00:51:33,418
[Titan] All too weak to get up except me.
791
00:51:35,793 --> 00:51:37,293
[Phong panting]
792
00:51:38,959 --> 00:51:41,418
-Hey, take a break now.
-[Phong] Yeah. Yeah.
793
00:51:41,501 --> 00:51:42,418
Go get some water.
794
00:51:42,501 --> 00:51:44,793
[Phong weakly] Yeah. [groans softly]
795
00:51:48,376 --> 00:51:50,376
[boys groaning, sighing]
796
00:51:50,876 --> 00:51:51,834
[Titan grunts]
797
00:52:01,459 --> 00:52:02,793
[Titan] Aren't you coming?
798
00:52:03,751 --> 00:52:05,251
I'm gonna dig a little bit more.
799
00:52:06,959 --> 00:52:08,543
[Titan] You need rest too, Eak.
800
00:52:09,209 --> 00:52:10,918
[Eak exhales deeply]
801
00:52:17,459 --> 00:52:18,959
I've told you about my brother, right?
802
00:52:24,043 --> 00:52:26,043
My name, Eakaphon…
803
00:52:28,751 --> 00:52:30,626
mixes both of our names together.
804
00:52:32,834 --> 00:52:33,876
But he had leukemia.
805
00:52:37,918 --> 00:52:39,043
And I watched him die.
806
00:52:40,209 --> 00:52:42,209
[poignant music playing]
807
00:52:48,126 --> 00:52:49,501
My life changed after that.
808
00:52:53,709 --> 00:52:54,668
My mother died.
809
00:52:56,334 --> 00:52:57,459
My father died.
810
00:53:05,876 --> 00:53:07,793
Right now, Mark isn't doing very well.
811
00:53:09,918 --> 00:53:11,793
[voice breaks] You guys are starving.
812
00:53:15,251 --> 00:53:17,001
But I won't lose my family again.
813
00:53:22,418 --> 00:53:23,709
[stones clacking]
814
00:53:27,626 --> 00:53:29,626
[earth scraping]
815
00:53:36,959 --> 00:53:38,959
[Eak grunting softly]
816
00:53:51,793 --> 00:53:53,001
[foreboding music plays]
817
00:54:01,418 --> 00:54:03,459
[thunder rumbling]
818
00:54:03,543 --> 00:54:06,459
[gentle music playing]
819
00:54:09,626 --> 00:54:11,543
[Narongsak] The rain is getting worse.
820
00:54:12,376 --> 00:54:16,001
And so are the water currents.
It's more dangerous for our divers too.
821
00:54:18,001 --> 00:54:20,001
Is there any chance we find them alive?
822
00:54:22,209 --> 00:54:26,293
It's been almost nine days
without clean water and food.
823
00:54:27,418 --> 00:54:28,626
Sir, we can't lose hope.
824
00:54:29,501 --> 00:54:30,459
I'm sorry, sir.
825
00:54:38,626 --> 00:54:40,543
Pull back the divers and my team.
826
00:54:43,251 --> 00:54:44,709
I can't risk more men.
827
00:54:48,959 --> 00:54:50,959
[poignant music playing]
828
00:54:57,376 --> 00:54:58,376
[Eak sniffles]
829
00:55:15,543 --> 00:55:17,543
[breathes shakily]
830
00:55:30,084 --> 00:55:32,084
[mouthing prayer]
831
00:56:06,834 --> 00:56:07,793
Please don't.
832
00:56:10,834 --> 00:56:12,751
I don't even know how I ended up here.
833
00:56:14,834 --> 00:56:17,293
Maybe you were led
to be together with me here.
834
00:56:17,376 --> 00:56:19,251
Our instincts are good guides.
835
00:56:22,459 --> 00:56:23,584
We've met before.
836
00:56:24,543 --> 00:56:27,084
You told me your son
is in the cave, right?
837
00:56:28,334 --> 00:56:29,293
His name is Mark.
838
00:56:30,001 --> 00:56:31,001
Mark.
839
00:56:34,376 --> 00:56:35,959
You must let me thank you.
840
00:56:39,459 --> 00:56:41,084
This is from the monks.
841
00:56:48,793 --> 00:56:50,209
Midnight meditation?
842
00:56:51,876 --> 00:56:53,626
I can't sleep, like you.
843
00:56:57,501 --> 00:56:58,959
It's a Shan tradition.
844
00:57:00,709 --> 00:57:02,126
Sand for each boy.
845
00:57:02,959 --> 00:57:04,251
Twelve in total.
846
00:57:05,668 --> 00:57:07,459
And one for Coach Eak.
847
00:57:08,459 --> 00:57:09,584
Thirteen.
848
00:57:10,334 --> 00:57:11,168
Yes.
849
00:57:12,709 --> 00:57:14,876
For me, faith is all that matters.
850
00:57:16,293 --> 00:57:17,668
I don't have money.
851
00:57:18,709 --> 00:57:20,209
I don't have power.
852
00:57:20,709 --> 00:57:21,834
I only have faith.
853
00:57:23,001 --> 00:57:25,126
Faith that my son is in there.
854
00:57:27,459 --> 00:57:28,834
And I'm choosing…
855
00:57:31,126 --> 00:57:33,084
to have faith that you will find him.
856
00:57:34,293 --> 00:57:35,918
If I wait for him here,
857
00:57:36,876 --> 00:57:38,751
that you will bring my Mark back.
858
00:57:38,834 --> 00:57:39,793
[Namhom sobs]
859
00:57:41,751 --> 00:57:43,376
What is it you believe?
860
00:57:44,209 --> 00:57:45,543
I believe in science.
861
00:57:47,959 --> 00:57:50,584
But now, science has failed me.
862
00:57:50,668 --> 00:57:52,668
[thunder rumbles]
863
00:57:54,293 --> 00:57:56,168
Mother nature is in the way.
864
00:57:57,709 --> 00:58:00,418
I wonder if I really have
offended the gods?
865
00:58:01,876 --> 00:58:03,501
I bowed my head to pray!
866
00:58:05,168 --> 00:58:07,501
But I couldn't bring myself to believe.
867
00:58:08,043 --> 00:58:09,543
[Namhom] It's a big ask
868
00:58:10,876 --> 00:58:12,876
for a man of science to give up
869
00:58:14,709 --> 00:58:16,751
and surrender to belief.
870
00:58:18,251 --> 00:58:19,959
I'm not proud to admit it…
871
00:58:24,334 --> 00:58:26,209
I'm going to need a miracle here.
872
00:58:26,293 --> 00:58:28,293
[poignant music playing]
873
00:58:30,501 --> 00:58:32,584
So does your son, in there.
874
00:58:43,959 --> 00:58:45,959
[poignant music continues]
875
00:59:00,543 --> 00:59:03,043
[people talking excitedly]
876
00:59:10,209 --> 00:59:13,084
[muffled chanting]
877
00:59:16,918 --> 00:59:18,918
[crickets chirping]
878
00:59:26,543 --> 00:59:27,376
[phone rings]
879
00:59:30,959 --> 00:59:34,334
-Ranger Pim speaking.
-[Odd] We think we've caught a break.
880
00:59:36,668 --> 00:59:37,793
What are we talking here?
881
00:59:37,876 --> 00:59:39,043
In millimeters?
882
00:59:39,543 --> 00:59:40,834
How much of a break?
883
00:59:42,043 --> 00:59:44,043
[silence over telephone]
884
00:59:47,126 --> 00:59:48,501
I want Noon now.
885
00:59:48,584 --> 00:59:49,751
[people softly gasping]
886
00:59:55,293 --> 00:59:56,668
Hi, Pim. It's Noon.
887
00:59:57,584 --> 00:59:59,876
Trust me. It's not going to rain.
888
01:00:01,084 --> 01:00:03,626
[Pim] They're saying no rain
until at least noon.
889
01:00:04,459 --> 01:00:05,834
Probably a little longer.
890
01:00:07,001 --> 01:00:08,334
I think we should go for it.
891
01:00:22,084 --> 01:00:24,209
The odds are nearly impossible.
892
01:00:25,501 --> 01:00:29,793
But we've all seen statistics
be wrong before.
893
01:00:31,793 --> 01:00:35,918
We've all seen the power of the mind
overcome the power of the body.
894
01:00:37,084 --> 01:00:38,293
We all have doubts.
895
01:00:39,251 --> 01:00:41,209
We all have a crisis of faith.
896
01:00:42,334 --> 01:00:45,251
We've all had days of rain that never end.
897
01:00:46,001 --> 01:00:47,584
But the rain ended!
898
01:00:48,543 --> 01:00:49,834
It wasn't supposed to.
899
01:00:51,043 --> 01:00:54,834
But it wasn't supposed to start
when the boys entered the cave either.
900
01:00:56,209 --> 01:00:58,626
Faith has a way of dealing us a hand
901
01:00:58,709 --> 01:01:00,334
that we don't always want.
902
01:01:00,418 --> 01:01:05,043
Challenges we could do without.
But challenges can be opportunities.
903
01:01:06,459 --> 01:01:09,584
Maybe you don't believe
you have an opportunity here.
904
01:01:10,293 --> 01:01:13,418
Or maybe you believe
it has passed us by already.
905
01:01:14,543 --> 01:01:17,168
Maybe you believe
the boys died on the first day.
906
01:01:17,918 --> 01:01:18,793
Or the third day.
907
01:01:19,459 --> 01:01:23,251
Drowned in water or got sick or starved.
908
01:01:24,543 --> 01:01:27,668
But I've seen a shrine
that bloomed in the jungle,
909
01:01:28,668 --> 01:01:30,168
filled with offerings.
910
01:01:31,043 --> 01:01:32,626
I've seen Buddhists,
911
01:01:32,709 --> 01:01:35,626
Christians, and animists,
912
01:01:36,126 --> 01:01:38,293
heads bowed in prayer.
913
01:01:39,126 --> 01:01:41,918
I've even bowed my own.
914
01:01:45,501 --> 01:01:47,084
Whatever you believe,
915
01:01:48,293 --> 01:01:50,584
believe in these boys.
916
01:02:00,376 --> 01:02:01,293
[John] What is it?
917
01:02:02,709 --> 01:02:03,918
[distant muffled voices]
918
01:02:12,209 --> 01:02:14,043
[muffled voices continue]
919
01:02:14,126 --> 01:02:15,126
[weakly] Biw.
920
01:02:17,834 --> 01:02:18,834
Biw. [sighs]
921
01:02:19,709 --> 01:02:22,793
[Biw, sleepily] If it's a ghost,
just ignore it.
922
01:02:24,168 --> 01:02:27,334
-[Rick] W-- Watch your step.
-[Adul] It's coming from the water.
923
01:02:27,876 --> 01:02:30,209
-[muffled voices continue]
-They sound foreign.
924
01:02:32,459 --> 01:02:34,459
[Biw moaning]
925
01:02:35,418 --> 01:02:37,543
[voices get louder]
926
01:02:37,626 --> 01:02:39,084
Foreign ghosts?
927
01:02:39,168 --> 01:02:42,043
-[John] Which direction do you think?
-[Rick] Definitely not behind us.
928
01:02:42,126 --> 01:02:44,543
I don't believe in ghosts.
929
01:02:49,334 --> 01:02:50,584
[Adul shouting] Hello?
930
01:02:51,918 --> 01:02:52,751
Hello?
931
01:02:54,043 --> 01:02:56,209
Hey! Come here! Quick!
932
01:03:01,084 --> 01:03:02,584
[John] Are you a Wild Boar?
933
01:03:04,709 --> 01:03:06,918
-[Adul] English?
-[Rick] Yes. [laughs]
934
01:03:07,001 --> 01:03:08,918
-[Adul] You speak English?
-[Rick] Yes!
935
01:03:09,834 --> 01:03:12,043
-[Adul] Where are you from?
-[Rick] The UK!
936
01:03:13,043 --> 01:03:14,418
[John] This is brilliant.
937
01:03:14,501 --> 01:03:16,584
[Titan] Where are my parents?
Is there anything to eat?
938
01:03:16,668 --> 01:03:19,334
-[Adul] Are there rangers outside?
-[Tle] Is my mom mad at me?
939
01:03:19,418 --> 01:03:21,126
[Tee] Adul, what did he say?
940
01:03:21,209 --> 01:03:22,543
[Tle] What's going on?
941
01:03:22,626 --> 01:03:24,084
Did you get lost?
942
01:03:24,168 --> 01:03:25,418
[Rick laughing] No.
943
01:03:25,501 --> 01:03:28,543
We're not lost. You're lost.
We've been trying to find you.
944
01:03:34,834 --> 01:03:35,959
Say your names.
945
01:03:36,584 --> 01:03:37,418
Here.
946
01:03:37,501 --> 01:03:38,876
I'm Adul.
947
01:03:40,793 --> 01:03:41,626
Titan.
948
01:03:43,668 --> 01:03:44,543
Phong.
949
01:03:45,376 --> 01:03:46,209
Mix.
950
01:03:47,251 --> 01:03:48,084
Night.
951
01:03:48,959 --> 01:03:49,793
Dom.
952
01:03:50,543 --> 01:03:51,376
Biw.
953
01:03:53,126 --> 01:03:54,001
Tle.
954
01:03:55,001 --> 01:03:55,834
Nick.
955
01:03:57,334 --> 01:03:58,168
Note.
956
01:04:00,209 --> 01:04:03,209
I'm Tee. And this is, um…
957
01:04:05,668 --> 01:04:06,501
I'm Mark.
958
01:04:07,793 --> 01:04:08,626
Mark.
959
01:04:09,959 --> 01:04:11,501
[inaudible dialogue]
960
01:04:11,584 --> 01:04:13,459
[poignant music playing]
961
01:04:23,793 --> 01:04:27,793
LIST OF MISSING PEOPLE
962
01:04:27,876 --> 01:04:33,126
13. MONGKOL
963
01:04:48,501 --> 01:04:52,751
[Rick chuckling] Twelve of you!
How is this possible?
964
01:04:53,334 --> 01:04:55,418
[John] Where is your coach? I-- Is he…
965
01:04:56,043 --> 01:04:57,168
Did he survive?
966
01:05:24,584 --> 01:05:26,501
[Rick] Coach. [chuckles]
967
01:05:27,251 --> 01:05:29,418
We've been searching for you for ten days.
968
01:05:29,918 --> 01:05:31,876
[John] We are so glad to find you safe.
969
01:05:33,043 --> 01:05:34,293
We thought you were dead.
970
01:05:35,084 --> 01:05:36,251
How is this possible?
971
01:05:36,793 --> 01:05:37,876
He made us dig.
972
01:05:39,293 --> 01:05:40,668
On a strict schedule.
973
01:05:41,334 --> 01:05:44,501
He taught us to fill our bellies
with fresh water.
974
01:05:45,626 --> 01:05:48,084
He taught us to meditate
975
01:05:49,418 --> 01:05:51,084
to conserve our strength,
976
01:05:51,834 --> 01:05:54,334
to focus our minds, and calm us.
977
01:05:55,459 --> 01:05:56,626
And to save your oxygen.
978
01:05:58,043 --> 01:06:00,126
Faith. He never gave up.
979
01:06:02,668 --> 01:06:06,293
[John] This… It… [voice quavers]
is simply extraordinary, Coach.
980
01:06:06,376 --> 01:06:09,418
You should be proud
for what you have done.
981
01:06:11,584 --> 01:06:14,626
[breathes shakily]
What will happen to us now?
982
01:06:15,209 --> 01:06:16,043
[moans softly]
983
01:06:24,001 --> 01:06:24,918
I don't know.
984
01:06:25,793 --> 01:06:28,876
But you saved these boys.
985
01:06:30,001 --> 01:06:31,668
Now it's up to all of us
986
01:06:31,751 --> 01:06:33,043
to rescue them.
987
01:06:34,751 --> 01:06:36,751
[rousing music playing]
