3. That is a brave man - the first rescuer down and the last man out of that mine
Not a job most people would even consider.

Did they turn the lights off when he left?

4. Nope. Lights left on. Camera left recording. Pretty incredible scene, and an amazingly brave man.

5. I know I would have
No I am not special.

As my husband likes to remind me... I have that special touch of insanity.

And to those guys, the shift super, that's what leaders do. The rescue workers, that's what we do...most of the time out of sight and out of mind.

Thank a firefighter. Most I know would if they were trained for that task, in a New York second.

And to them a salute.
