Meanwhile, the Thai navy divers have pulled four of the kids out already using the advanced technologies known as "a face mask" and "swimming"

He's trying to help save a bunch of kids' lives, that's always a good thing as long your efforts aren't so misdirected or incompetent that they're foiling other attempts (they aren't)

maxing out the cynicism gauge a rich guy deeply concerned with his image notices that some children have become newsworthy for their dire situation. normally he does poo poo all for children but this time there's an opportunity for a PR win so he announces on twitter to the public and the media that he's going to help save them, as advised by his image consultant

he weighted that thing so it'd have neutral buoyancy, right? otherwise it'd float super forcefully. you'd need to adjust the weight for each kid. what's the rated full/empty weight? nvm just saw the vid Uncle Enzo fucked around with this message at 01:57 on Jul 9, 2018 |

I'm sure that you could easily get a rigid metal cylinder large enough to contain a 12 year old child around an underwater corner where highly trained combat divers have to take off their equipment to force their bodies through
