Hear the diver who rescued the Thai boys from the cave: "Chances were small"

It was in June 2018 that 12 boys and their football coach disappeared during an outing to the cave system Tham Luang in Thailand. The incident led to a rescue effort followed by the whole world.

- Due to the monsoon rain, it was a fight against the clock, says divers Mikko Paasi who participated in the big operation.

After seventeen days in the cave, all 13 people managed to be rescued, but according to Mikko Paasi, they had not dared to hope that the rescue operation would end so well.

- When we discussed the alternatives, everyone thought that even if we only get half, it's a victory, he says and continues:

- But the end result was pretty fantastic.
