Can't just let them die down there. And all rescuers (firefighters, policemen, etc) risk their lives.

excellent point about the fact that all rescuers risk their lives. come up with a decent strategy, like the large human suze drill hole, and let whichever rescuer go down that chooses to.
The men down there need to be fought for. human lives..

Are 172 lives worth saving? What about 100? 50? Where do you draw the line?

You have to rescue them, but it's clear that some better technology is needed for communications and life support.

Chances are, those miners are already dead. And now 3 more rescuers are dead. Enough is enough.
