  • Four months after 33 Chilean miners were rescued from a half-mile underground, where they lived in daily fear of death for over two months, psychologists say all but one of them are experiencing serious mental stress. Bob Simon reports.

    Clearly these men are suffering from PTSD. The mining company got off scott free in spite of reported safety issues BEFORE THE MINE collapsed. They should have had to give these men a huge settlement paid as one lump sum or in payments. It's just wrong they have been abandoned as they have been. It's an injustice to these men who worked so hard for this company who doesn't give a shit about them.

      Dee Marie Dubois,
      I would think they would be way up on a scale of PTSD sufferers. Pinera doesn't care. He gave such trite responses. These miners must have awful nightmares and suffer over sensitization and be hypervigilant. It's highly likely they deal with insomnia and flashbacks. Emotional detachment can be a big issue. Families suffer. They all, definitely, deserve workmen's compensation and damages from the company.

      You don't even know HALF the story bro. The movie didn't tell you that the 33 Chilean miners found lizard creatures underground that were absolutely diabolical. That's why they had to sign a non-disclosure.
      This information was given to the public by whistle-blower Donald Marshall.

      true, unfortunately the PTSD will probably haunt them for the rest of their lives. I truly feel for them and for our own civil servants that get caught in natural disasters, terrorist attacks, and similar situations only to have our American Government turn its back on them. Think about the 911 rescue workers and even our own military, they have been swept under the rug.

    It seems that the government dose not care as much for the 33's health as much as there own image, Because some of them can't work and do require such payment like disability checks. The fact that some of there disability's were taking seems a bit crazy and uncalled for. Some of these men need and deserve that disability check for what they went threw.

    I think they should be grateful they have a president and people who rescued them. I mean with those odds where do you hear such rescue efforts. And after watching the movie have they forgotten how much will they had to live. Nothing mattered down there except to get out and be alive. And the fact this guy say he'd feather be dead after all those efforts.
    Granted they should get compensation and get disability benefits.
    There's plenty of people who probably get it. Why stop these guys.
    Still even though it's tough they should look around. They are alive and that's all that matters.

      Aisha Aslam you don't understand PTSD. He said he feels like he hasn't been rescued because the person he was before is no longer there. What they went through no one can begin to imagine. It's hard to just continue on with life when death should have come for you. The mind is a battle that most people can't win. Leave them alone and pray you never experience something that changes your whole life.

    He mentions an event from a friggin' Fairy Tale as if it was an actual historical event lol my 5 year old is smart enough to have figured out the MANY physics and reality defying aspects of such an ABSURD story!
    "The rescue of the 33 trapped Chilean miners, an incident as harrowing as Rudolph getting teased by his fellow Reindeer, with an ending as happy and cathartic as Rudolph finally being asked by the man himself to put his bright, shiny nose to good use guiding the sleigh that night!" 🤣
    I mean, if we're going to stick with make-believe stories for our comparisons lol why shouldn't the Loch Ness Monster or Dracula be invoked as well?!
    Many of the tales pulled straight from Mother Goose and Grimm are more closely tied to what's actually possible within the shared reality we experience than Noah's freaking ARK!

    I'm sorry for how these guys feel, but I have to wonder what has changed in humanity's latent toughness over the past 60-70 years. The people who came out of Nazi concentration camps went thru far more than 69 days of terror, starvation and abuse, but we don't hear about any of them having PTSD or taking multiple meds to get thru the day. They weren't hailed as heroes or taken to Disney World or given any disability payments; they just went out and made their way back into life, finding jobs, creating families, enjoying the little things- after having lost EVERYTHING. We are wimps these days, regarding any period of suffering as something that requires psychiatric treatment and sympathy instead of realizing that the tough times make us stronger, wiser and better human beings.

      PTSD was not a known diagnosis back then. So, it would likely not have been identified or treated like now. Many evidence based psychotherapists today. Cognitive Processing Therapy. Prolonged Exposure Therapy. EMDR.

      Seriously this is one of the most ignorant and ill informed comments I have ever read. The reason that PTSD wasn't diagnosed in the 1940s is because it wasn't recognised, it doesn't mean that people didn't have it. If you want to see the proof look up Patric Stewart's Who Do You Think You Are? It's very clear that Patrick Stewart's father was post traumatically stressed from his engagements during WWII.

      +talitakoomi I love your idiot words about toughness as a person who is obviously a moron and has never suffered shyt. Just that you think people coming out of WW II camps aren't still kvetching and demanding payments for their alleged suffering proves you don't know fuk shyt about anything. There are still active Naz1 hunters hunting elderly Germans and attempting to extract every penny they can get from them and their families to be sent to another greedy 6ew to live large on their genocidal settler colony in Palest1ne.

    The millions upon millions of dollars spent rescuing these men isn't payment enough? If humans were logical, they would have left them do die. But we're not! We have empathy, for people in a situation like that, and even one life matters. But it has to end somewhere. They shouldn't be coddled by the government forever just because they were trapped in a mine and were rescued. I do however think that the mining company should be held accountable for putting people in a mine that doesn't meet some kind of code.

      ajbutch123 they are asking for their life back and no one can give it to them. Dollars can't compare to a human life. They should have been compensated but they weren't and now we are asking them to move on. You must have never had anything tragic happen to you. Well you are blessed because some of us humans struggle with the nasty hand that life has dealt. Don't ever judge another man's struggle.

      Without going into my life story, I do know how it is being dealt a shitty hand in life. What you don't seem understand is that is part of life, and sometimes 'it is what it is'. So get over it like every one else has to.

      +ajbutch123 Well then you're a very bitter person. I can't believe you can lack so much compassion and claim you have been through tough times. I have been through more shit in my life than most and yet I manage to be compassionate, I couldn't stand to see anyone suffer. I suppose that's the difference between a victim and a survivor.

      bournemouthlass I'm a bitter person? If someone has issues because they were trapped in a mine, then rescued... they had some underlying problems in the first place. I would be thankful I was saved, then move on with my life. PTSD from combat I totally get. Issues from being stuck in a mine for a month is craziness.

    What else do they want? Do they even know how much it cost to get them out? They worked for a private company even, so how is that the President's fault? Typically "goverment as a babysitter" mentality.

      Are you kidding? They deserve disability bc they are legitimately disabled and unable to function in their lives because of something THEY had no control over. 2 months of continuous trauma and expecting to die. Went to work one day, did everything right, and were buried alive. And the president bears responsibility, bc the private company WAS NOT properly prosecuted or made to pay damages by the government as it should have been, even though it was completely complicit. It continued to send its workers down into a mine they knew was unstable, didn’t put an emergency exit bc they were cheap, had outdated/inaccurate maps, and left only 3 days worth of food down there when it takes months to drill down that mountain. It had no legal ground to stand on. How did it win the case? Corruption.
      Meanwhile all these miners want is adequate medical care and disability. How much does that cost for only 33 men who experienced what’s regarded as one of the worst traumatic events in recent history and captured the attention of billions?
      You have a typical idiot who doesn’t understand how a stable, developed society works mentality.
