Australian expert ‘over the moon’ to have helped rescue 41 men trapped by tunnel collapse in India

How long before Elon Musk calls him a pedo

I love good humans. Great result for him and all that that worked so hard for it.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Arnold Dix, a Melbourne specialist in underground transportation and infrastructure, is being hailed after his efforts helped save workers stuck inside a blocked tunnel in the Himalayan mountains.

Dix told Channel Seven’s Sunrise on Wednesday morning that once he was asked to help he found himself “literally in a helicopter being whisked out like in a MASH movie up into the Himalayas” and “was confronted with something I’ve never seen before”.

Describing the scene of the mountain when he first arrived, Dix told Sunrise it “had an avalanche with millions of tonnes of rock and a huge cavity inside”.

The task that lay ahead for the huge team of experts, who had come together from all over the world, was no easy feat, Dix told Channel Nine’s Today show.

He described the gruelling process of having to dig “100 millimetres at a time” while balancing the risk of triggering another landslide.

The workers were eventually pulled out through an escape pipe on Tuesday night after the last stretch of rubble was manually drilled by the specialist team.
