    She should be made pay the costs involved. She was even warned not to try it

    I love the bit where they say chocolate bars were given to the children who were trapped.
    I could picture the report saying
    "rescuers attempted to give the children chocolate bars in an effort to keep them calm and occupied during their ordeal, but the treats were taken by the large woman as they were being brought to the youngsters"

    The woman became trapped in the Tunnel of Love

    ROFL! This should be all the incentive she needs to get herself in shape.

    She lost her footing and went down in a splits position.

    Ouchies. She should be made pay.

    This comment got a chuckle out of me. :D

    Ha, that is classic. :D:D

    I'd just hope that they didn't get hungry while they were trapped in there because it would be the ultimate irony :D

    My fave part of the report -
    One rescuer was able to climb over the woman to deliver insulin to the diabetic.

    Great imagery.

    I have been to the Cango Caves in South Africa and they are an amazing aspect of nature. There are if I remember possible 3 sections to the caves. The first part very big and open, the second part you have to slip though a series of tunnels and then the next you have to crawl. Now at the time I was about 15 stone and I would not go past the first area simply because of the fear of getting stuck. How this person thought they could get though is beyond me.

    The Cango Caves as I said are spectacular and if you ever get a chance to Visit South Africa, jump on it. It’s the best place I have ever visited in my life.

    There is always one……

    One would have thought that caving obviously wasn't the best sport/activity to be taking part in if you're a land whale. She received fair warning, quite a few infact, now she should pay the costs involved for paying no heed to said warnings.
