So That's How Diamonds Are Made!


So exactly how bad would it have to be before you did this? On a side note...this has been all the buzz. That's alot of AK-47's waiting to be bought for sure!

Knowing I'm in an illegal shaft, and wanting to make more money, it would have to be as bad as if I knew no one would come to my rescue. That's probably how they must have felt. I mean REALLY, making jokes about their wives remarrying after their dead shows how much they thought they weren't going to survive. Eating coal and drinking their own urine also shows their wanting to survive and escaping the mine.

Well, I'm thinking it was pretty bad...I mean, they were in an illegal coal mine, with no food, no water, no electricity, with nothing. I'm assuming they were really thinking they were going to die but decided to try and save themselves. They were making jokes about dying and their wives having to marry other men, so they must have not had very much faith that they were going to live. I'm fairly certain that the men were very scared and just wanted to get out of that mine, even if it was illegal to be there in the first place. I wonder what their wives said when they heard about all those jokes!
