Each week we decide who's to blame for historical tragedy.

And each week you tell us if we got it right.

My name is Rebecca Delgado Smith and this is the aftermath.

Hey everyone, thanks for tuning into the aftermath. Today we'll be talking to a

senior drilling application engineer at Center Rock Inc. the company that was in

charge of rescuing the 33 miners.

His name is Richard Sapi,

and as the Chilean miners like to call him,

Sopito.

Richard, well, thank you so much for joining us today.

From what I understand, you were part of the successful drilling team

that assisted in the 37-day rescue operation of the 33 miners.

That is correct.

You are definitely a true hero and worthy of what we call around here, the big clap.

So thank you so much. And thank you. So walk us through at one point in the

69 day ordeal did you and your team get involved and can you talk to us

about what you encountered at that point? Well I think it was two things that got

our attention of the initial cave-in of the mine, it was announced to the world, and not another word. They mentioned there was 33 miners, didn't know if they were dead or alive, and we'd listen and searched out, we could not find any other information until 17 days later and that's when they had actually got a small hole drilled from the surface into the mine and confirmed that all 33 miners were alive.
