The ordeal of 33 trapped Chilean miners is finally over after the 24-hour operation to bring them to the surface. The shift supervisor was the last to be freed. They'd spent more than two months trapped underground, following a rockfall. All 33 emerged safely - and in much better physical condition than had been expected. But they're still being given thorough checks in hospital.
