What's so special about the diving mask for the Thai team members?

Diving plan to escape Tham Luang cave for 13 Thai team members "Wild Pig" is considered the most feasible solution in the context of a storm coming to this area again. The diving mask equipped for 12 boys is also very special.

Guardian Subsea Services in Bangkok is discussing with Thai authorities to provide diving masks suitable for the shape and size of faces of 12 " Wild Pig " boys stuck in Tham Luang cave.

The small diving mask is prepared to bring into Tham Luang cave to serve the rescue of 13 Thai team members stuck.

Specifically, Mermaid Subsea Services Company offers to provide AGA Divator masks. This is a full face mask and is specially designed to fit children. In addition, children will be wearing diving suits, boots and helmets. Divers will stretch the rope so they can stick and follow.

Mr. Ruengrit Changkwanyuen, a coordinator of the international diving group, said they will not wear 12-liter oxygen bottles but instead, the swimmer will provide them. Along the dive route, going out every 25 - 50m, the rescue force will also set up oxygen tanks to help you quickly add oxygen in case the oxygen supply tank is empty.

Chinese swimmer who participated in the rescue of 13 members of the "Wild Pig" team , Zhou Yahui said, "The water level in the cave will decrease but that does not mean that the children do not have to dive out. And there is no guarantee for this activity. '

Oxygen cylinders are pumped for rescue purposes.

Meanwhile, hundreds of soldiers and Thai police continue to advance into the deep forest above Tham Luang cave to find an alternative escape route for those who are trapped.

If you can find an alternative escape route, 13 people stuck in the cave will not have to dive through the swampy, intertwined areas and the vision will be zero in Tham Luang cave. Because even professional divers were injured in the process of entering the cave to rescue the stranded group.

Volunteers who dived into the cave to rescue 13 Wild Pig team members admitted that if the rain falls again, taking the group stuck out in the dive path will face countless risks.

'This is clearly not the easiest route but the most frightening,' said Claus Rasmussen, a member of the international rescue team in cooperation with the Thai navy.

'This is a large cave system and is nearly 10km long. When heavy rain falls, the entire cave will be flooded. When diving in the cave, the air is very little , 'said Maksym Polejaka, a diver who spent 5 days leading Thailand's SEAl task force to find 13 missing people.

Also according to Mr. Polejaka, rain will create tight currents that make swimming impossible but even when the flow is strong, swimming is extremely difficult.
