The Resume

    (1961- )
    Miner in Pennsylvania
    One of nine miners trapped at Quecreek Mine (July 24-28, 2002)
    Last one rescued and thus spent longest time trapped (almost seventy-eight hours)

Why he might be annoying:

    He looked like a minstrel performer.
    Being that he was the last rescued, he gets the media glory (July 24th at 8:50 PM-July 28th at 2:45 A.M.).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He and eight other miners were trapped in a flooded mine 237 feet under Somerset Pennsylvania.
    He graciously allowed the eight other miners to be rescued before he was.
    Miners in order of rescue:
    1:00 a.m. Randy Fogle
    1:15 a.m. Harry Blaine Mayhugh
    1:30 a.m.Thomas Foy
    1:40 a.m. John Unger
