        Why don't you use small boats or kyacks to extract the boys across the water basins. Have the divers push or pull the boats so they will not capsize. You would not need to teach the boys how to swim or scuba dive. This will work.

        It won't, it's a cave, they'd need a submarine, and it's so thin that divers have to take off their oxygen tanks to fit

        Don't see how a submarine will work. It will be heavy to carry. Plus small boats or kyacks should fit they are flat in nature.

        Certain parts are completely underwater. How would a kayak or canoe work if it would have to be completely submerged underwater?

        It doesn't appear that a boat or kyack would be submerged. I looked at the cave layout on several reliable sources and I did not see any obstructions as you mentioned. As I said, another option would be an inflatable raft.

        Thanks for a better map. The one I looked at initially, it appeared there was a surface for the boats or kyack to float on, but there's not. Looking into other solution.

        🤔Does ANYONE understand the logic used behind bringing out the STRONGEST boys "first" & leaving the weakest behind? Will they get any "stronger" the longer they are "in" the cave with air running out, & water running in? I, don't get it! Can someone help me understand?

        They needed the strongest who can withstand the very difficult dive and 4km walk out to safety without being too weak@to risk the lives of the rescuers.

        Hate to say it but how come there wasn't an entire truck load of O2 tanks?? Why did they have to end the rescue to go get more O2 tanks?
