In this episode I speak with joint 2019 Australian of the year,
Dr Richard Harris, OAM, who you might know as the anaesthetist
and cave diver that played a pivotal role in the rescue of the
Thai soccer team that became trapped in a flooded cave in 2018. I
speak with him about how he came to be involved in the rescue
efforts, the risks associated with the sedating the young boys
and diving them out through a narrow cave, the feelings he had
when realising they had all survived and how he views it all now,
five years on.
