The rescue is taking place in a mine. My statement was in no way incorrect. - Edit 1

I mean, in some vague, oh-yeah-that's-good way, I'm glad they're being rescued. I don't wish them any ill will and think it's good that this isn't ending in tragedy. But in the end, I just really don't care.

They had to put the news up on a big TV in the lunch room at work so people wouldn't slow the system by trying to watch it on their computers. And all these people were glad to go watch it on their breaks. I just don't get it. It's slow and boring watching hours of slowing ascending and descending equipment. But people couldn't get enough.

I dunno. People are awfully voyeuristic and starved for entertainment. Or I'm a heartless psychopath. Or both could be true.

I thought they usually just blew them up. Maybe that's why people are so taken by it?
