The book “Trapped” talks about how 33 miners from San Josè survived in a dark, empty and confined environment for 69 days, it also talks about how dangerous the corruption and greed the “people in charge” had.

This book thought me a-lot about spelunking and cave mining, I learnt about how hard it could be to rescue people from extremely violent environments, and what it took for people to survive in it. the book also switches from time to time to talk about other people that got trapped and survived, or didn’t. to the miners trapped 2000 feet below, hope was almost vital to their chances of survival, because when the miners lose hope, they might as well be dead already.

any one that had experienced being trapped would know the story of a plane that crashed in the snow of a icy mountain, the people that survived the crash weren’t in the same team, therefore lead to their lack of progress to survives and find a way home, the copious amount of time the survivors spent lost in the snow was eating away at their mental health, which lead to violent thoughts of desperate attempt for survival, which lead to cannalblbism to their dead peers, partners, and even family.                                                               To the trapped miners, this story was the guide to their survival, it had set all the worst examples for the miners, so the miners did the opposite, they chose a wise leader, made sure they were all in the same side, then planed for food and entertainment to pass time with, and all the other needs for the following mouths, and kept away from even the thought of cannalblbism.
