The enthralling autobiography of cave-diver Rick Stanton, who played a leading role in the Thai cave rescue in 2018
Rick Stanton MBE GM served as a firefighter with the West Midlands Fire Service, but it was his 'hobby' of cave-diving that consumed his time. He has quietly spent forty years exploring caves around the world, steadily building his unique skill set as he defied limits, pushed boundaries, and discovered parts of the earth that had never been seen before. Along the way, he and his dive partners became the ones to call for the most challenging cave rescue and recovery missions. In 2018, he found himself on the world's stage when he and John discovered the Wild Boars alive, trapped inside Thailand's flooded Tham Luang cave. Rick needed to rely on all the experiences and friendships he'd gathered along the way as he carefully planned and then successfully executed one of the most noteworthy rescue missions on record.
