4 of the 39 miners are trapped in a ONE MILE underground after a scoop bucket that brings them to the surface detached and blocked the mine off early sunday

It happened in Ontario, Canada at Vale's Totten Mine where the miners went to refuge stations as part of protocol where there is food and water and the ability to contact loved ones

As of now, 4 are still trapped and are still climbing since Sunday MORNING!!

One of the first miners out tells the meia he was higher up than others so his trek up the ladder was shorter,,,

He said the 1850 foot level climb began where it took him in total 2 hours and 50 minutes to get out with breaks every 40 minutes to take a breather.

He said it was a long trek and hard on the arms and it wasn't alike a cave in or out but just a long ladder. He said they remained positive with other men behind him where they made jokes and used a telephone to call loved ones to make it easier

It's unclear how long food and after will last but one of the miner's wives is concerned for her husband who is one of the 4 still trapped and climbing

She said they received bags of chocolate bars, energy bars but says it is not a well balanced meal to provide energy to those men who have to climb 3100 feet to safety

The rescue operation is still underway with 33 of the minors are out

Miners who can't make it all the way up will be pulled up using ropes

I'm not sure what's worse, being stuck underground for 4 days, or having to live in Sudbury, Ontario
