The president faced several risks in order to rescue the miners. For instance, he put the lives of other people to risk when he allowed them to participate in rescuing the lives of the miners even though he had been told that there was only 10% chance of the miners to be alive and later it went below 2%. The rescue was also risky since the people who got involved in the rescuing could hurt the miners while trying to help them. It was also risky since the mining place was very deep and therefore it could result in more danger.
