| Elon Musk launches baseless Twitter attack on Thai cave rescue diver Posted: 16 Jul 2018 12:17 AM PDT  Elon Musk came under fire on Sunday after launching an extraordinary and baseless attack on a British diver who masterminded the successful rescue of 12 young Thai footballers, falsely calling him a "pedo" on social media. Mr Musk's shocking attack on expert cave explorer Vernon Unsworth included claims that he had never seen Mr Unsworth at the cave and - the false claim - that he was a paedophile. The attack by Mr Musk, 47, came after the experienced cave diver rubbished the Telsa CEO's plans to use a miniature submarine to save the boys. Vernon Unsworth, who led the rescue operation, had earlier accused the tech entrepreneur of creating a "PR stunt", saying Mr Musk "can stick his submarine where it hurts". "It just had absolutely no chance of working. He had no conception of what the cave passage was like," Mr Unsworth told CNN last week. "The submarine, I believe, was about five-foot-six long, rigid, so it wouldn't have gone round corners or round any obstacles." A "tiny kid-sized submarine" produced by Elon Musk's Space X rocket company being tested in a swimming pool in California Credit: AP In a series of tweets, presented without evidence, responding to a journalist, Mr Musk shot back.: "Never saw this British expat guy who lives in Thailand (sus) at any point when we were in the caves. Only people in sight were the Thai navy/army guys, who were great. Thai navy seals escorted us in — total opposite of wanting us to leave." In case his use of "(sus)" left room for doubt, Mr Musk doubled-down on his remarks, adding in later tweets: "Sorry pedo guy, you really did ask for it". Mr Musk has since deleted the tweets. Neither Mr Musk or Mr Unsworth could be reached for comment on Sunday evening. Why Elon Musk is the Donald Trump of the tech world It is understood that Mr Unsworth has expert local knowledge of the Tham Luang cave system where the boys were trapped, and has several years of experience diving there. Mr Musk had earlier been mocked online after the Thai football team and its coach were rescued without the help of his submarine. Mr Musk has also previously said he would be more careful over his use of Twitter, after shareholders called for a period of "peace" in the wake of a number of social media rows. "I have made the mistaken assumption – and I will attempt to be better at this – of thinking that because somebody is on Twitter and is attacking me that it is open season. That is my mistake. I will correct it," he said in an interview last week. Thai cave rescuer Vern Unsworth rejects Elon Musk's offer of mini-sub Social media users said his recent promise makes his false and defamatory attack on Mr Unsworth all the more inexplicable. Some users reported Mr Musk's comments to Twitter, one reportedly saying he "shouldn't be allowed to use " the social network " to unleash [his] followers on people like this".

| Thai cave rescue divers given diplomatic immunity: report Posted: 15 Jul 2018 09:15 PM PDT  Two Australian divers who helped extract the young football team trapped in a Thai cave obtained diplomatic immunity before the rescue in case it failed, national broadcaster ABC reported Monday. The "Wild Boars" team were stuck in the cave in northern Thailand for 18 days before Thai Navy SEALs and international cave diving experts successfully removed them in a highly risky, three-day-long operation. Anaesthetist Richard Harris and his diving partner Craig Challen, both cave diving specialists, played key roles in the rescue.

| Massive 11-million-ton iceberg towers over little village in Greenland Posted: 15 Jul 2018 06:39 PM PDT  A colossal 11-million ton iceberg is towering over a tiny Greenland village, captured in one of the most jaw-dropping photos you'll see this week. Taken by Karl Petersen on Friday, the photograph shows an enormous 650-feet-wide iceberg sitting dangerously close to the village of Innarsuit, an island settlement in the Avannaata municipality in northwestern Greenland. SEE ALSO: Antarctica is losing billions of tons of ice each year, sharply boosting sea levels Why is this a threat? According to Greenland national newspaper Sermitsiaq, some residents of the 169-population village have evacuated for fear of a tsunami, if parts of the iceberg start breaking off this close to the village's shore, causing large waves. According to the Danish Meteorological Institute, reported by The New York Times, satellite data puts the iceberg at approximately 650 feet wide, 300 feet above the water level, and weighing 11 million tons. In fact, the iceberg is so gigantic, it was picked up by the EU's Sentinel-2A satellite — yep, you can literally see it from space. Image of the icebergs near #Innaarsuit, #Greenland ���� taken by the @CopernicusEU #Sentinel-2A #satellite. The diameter of the larger #iceberg is about 300 meters. pic.twitter.com/QnB8Au5mZH — Antti Lipponen (@anttilip) July 14, 2018 According to the Times, local officials are hoping that the iceberg will be carried away by southerly winds and rising tides before any pieces of it can break off. Fingers crossed. [h/t Axios] WATCH: Rain, rain, go away — unless you have this 'Hairbrella' hat
