The members of the football team survived nine long days trapped in the Tham Luang cave before they were found with little to no food or water supplies.

According to the Mirror, the victims survived on a little carry-on snacks, water from stalactites and meditation.

On July 2, divers finally found the team alive after being trapped in the cave for nine days. Divers had to dive for nearly four hours through the narrow and twisting tunnels of Tham Luang cave in search of victims.

However, it took another 8 days for the team trapped about 4km from the cave entrance to be rescued.

On July 8, rescuers were determined to get the victims out. Each boy was escorted out by two divers through dark, narrow, flooded tunnels.

The roller went on to reveal that, at first, others disagreed with the idea, but he stood his ground and was determined to defend his plan.
