WATCH: Moment 12 Boys & Soccer Coach Found Alive After Trapped 10 DAYS In Cave

An incredible video out of Thailand shows the moment 12 boys and their soccer coach were rescued alive after going missing 10 days earlier during torrential rains.

The team and their soccer coach, lost for 10 days in a cave in Thailand, have been found alive, ecstatic officials declared Monday.

“Thai Navy SEALs have found all 13 with signs of life,” Narongsak Osottanakorn, the governor of the Chiang Rai province, told reporters. source

Rescuers are now working to extract the team from the cave.

The Thai Navy SEALs posted a video on Facebook showing the group when they were first found. The boys appeared to be in good health and were talking, asking what day it was and being told by rescuers that more help was on the way.

“I am really happy now,” one of the boys said in English. “Thank you.”

A British diver on the SEAL team told the group, “You have been here 10 days. You are very strong.”

Officials said the children and their coach were found to be weak and that a medic was now with them in the cave, providing medical assistance.

The miraculous rescue came during a lull in the torrential rains that had hampered the agonizing search. The respite from the rain also gave rescuers confidence to push forward in an area of the subterranean labyrinth they had hoped the boys and their coach were waiting to be saved.
