Thai soccer team planned to be inside the cave for only an hour

By Amy Sawitta Lefevre and Panarat Thepgumpanat BANGKOK (Reuters) - Twelve boys and their soccer coach rescued from a flooded cave in Thailand planned to explore the cavern complex for only about an hour before treacherous flood waters rose to trap them for more than two weeks, one of the boys' fathers said. All 12 of the boys and their 25-year-old coach were brought to safety over the course of a three-day rescue, organised by Thai navy SEALs and an international team of diving and caving experts, that ended on Tuesday.
