And no wonder: the song text as well as the bouncing, energetic beat works well with scenes that give conclusion and release of hidden emotions. When look closer at it, it has had a lot of appearances in movies and television over the years. I’m obviously not the only one who finds it catchy. Once again it runs on repeat in my head and I can’t find the button to make it stop. And I curse the moment when the idea to write this post popped into my head. It’s one of the stickiest songs I know of. Tonight for the first time just about half past tenįor the first time in history it’s gonna start raining menĬan you hear it? Of course you can. "I mean, you really could not invent that – that's exactly what happened.Humidity’s rising, barometer’s gettin’ lowĪccording to all sources the street’s the place to go It did make it very stressful on the last day, and once they got them all out, they couldn't have gone back in. "On the second night of the rescue, the rain came down very fast and an awful lot of water started filling the caves. "They had three days of getting them out, and they knew the monsoon was coming," Nicholson says.
#It was raining that night movie movie#
Title cards at the end of the movie state that "volunteers diverted an estimated 56 million gallons of water from the cave" and "farmers who suffered losses were offered government compensation."Īnother card reveals that just days after the rescue was completed, monsoon rains caused the cave to become "completely submerged for eight months." The film depicts a race against time to complete the mission before the cave floods again. Howard says he wanted to highlight the Thai people's rescue efforts and "improvisational problem-solving": splitting bamboo in half to create pipes that would carry water out of the caves, and sacrificing their farmlands for water to be pumped onto. How long did they actually have until the cave flooded again? As you see in the film, (the divers) had to re-administer the ketamine several times because it was a (roughly six-hour) journey and the ketamine would keep them fully unconscious for one to two hours."
And then the anesthetic was ketamine, and it was a lot. Then there was a drug to dry up the saliva in their mouth so they didn't choke while unconscious. "There was a tranquilizer to calm them down. "There were three drugs," Nicholson says.
That risk was devastating."Ĭhoosing which drugs and how much to inject was a challenge in itself: If the boys were given too much, their respiratory systems could shut down if they were given too little, they could wake up underwater and drown. And those who did "were very anxious about it because had it gone wrong, it was a man-made intervention that would have been killing them.
It's true that "the parents never knew," Nicholson says. "No one must know about the method you propose, not even the parents," the governor replies. Given how weak the boys were, and the length of the swim out of the cave, the only option was for the divers to put the boys under using anesthetics and carry them underwater.īefore the rescue, Harry Harris (Joel Edgerton), an anesthetist and cave diver, tells the local governor (Sahajak Boonthanakit) their plan and that they are expecting some casualties. Were the boys actually given ketamine injections?
