Hi,
My sis and I watched the last miner come out (He was the foreman of the group). The cameras and mics stayed on him because he talked for about 20 mins with mine officials and the Chilean president before moving off stage.
My sis translated some of the Spanish for me better than CNN did.
I was intrigued in early September when US consultants put the miners on a sleep schedule:

The Nasa team, made up of a doctor, a nutritionist, an engineer and a psychologist, has considerable experience of space missions and is used to helping astronauts cope with extreme conditions and months of solitude.
Mr Duncan, who is leading the Nasa team in Chile, said his group had been asked to provide help in nutrition and behavioural health.
Speaking at a news conference in Santiago before travelling to the mine, he said his team had seen two videos the miners made of themselves, and that a priority was increasing the miners' caloric intake, getting them on a regular sleep schedule and ensuring they remain optimistic.

I wish I had not watched at all.
Witnessing such an emotional has added to some of my normal turmoil levels.
