Someone I know posted this:


‎33 miners were rescued in the 33rd week of the year; it took 33 days to drill down to them; they were brought to the surface on 10/13/10 which equals 33.


Is this information accurate?

Also, the name of the drill that helped rescue them was named 'pheonix' ???

Does anyone else think there might be a connection between some of the big 'accidents' that have been happening lately?

How is that a "myth"? It's just polite manipulation of data to come up with something interesting.

Were all the miners brought up on the same day?

Why did the addition of the date conveniently leave out the "20" in "2010"?

etc.

I say myth because there are obviously a lot of people out there who believe this.

And I get the whole manipulation of information thing..
That's what caught my attention.
My interest was sparked because I have been watching that show Rubicon.. :D
