My grandfather was a mining engineer in Fiji when they had a collapse and some workers got trapped in a tunnel filling with water. He and his men worked night and day designing and building equipment to bore in and pump the water out, to keep them alive long enough for the tunnel to be cleared. The day when everybody comes out alive is not easily forgotten.
