The Internet has alwasy been quick to be humorous about all sorts of events. Thankfully, this time it was a good thing that could have turned into a really bad thing.

In an unprecedented rescue operation that captivated the eyes of the world for months (but mostly for the 24 hours the actual rescue was carried out in), Chile has proved that miracles are real and all obstacles can be surpassed when faith is kept, when people work together towards a common goal, and good Engineering is brought into the mix (yeah, I'm an Engineer p).

And how is this related to Nintendo? Well, "Super Mario" was one of the miners trapped and rescued! In case you haven't read/heard/seen the news, one Mario Sepúlveda was nicknamed "Super Mario" by his coworkers. And in that spirit, the Net has replied with an obvious image about the rescue.

I wonder how many of the miners will decide that this line of work is not for them anymore.

Surprisingly... not many :S I, for one, would immediately quit my job if something this traumatic ever happened to me (God forbid)... But I've seen some interviews and most of them can't wait to get back on the job! :O
