    This is that same video!!!!! 19:08 around here there is this crazy snarling sound it’s terrifying and nobody ever brings it up. Iv seen this video before I think like a year ago even.

    Frank and or Sharon are pretty smart posting this video. Not all of us have seen their older videos. I imagine parts 2 and 3 might ve played in the coming weeks but I needed to see more. I was up most of the night watching their videos. It's weird how addicting it is to watch someone exploring a hole in the ground.

    @10:08 their should be rope mat to stop the rope from abrading or being damaged especially with that length of rope going over the edge glad you showed the three to one that can be easily converted to a five to one if needs be and possible more, kudos to the search and rescue technician , great upload indeed

    I remember this video very well. In the words of "Marv" from "Home Alone 2", "WOW.......What a hole!!!!!!! I would have been worried about some edge protection on the rope, but all went well & that edge seemed to be rounded quite a bit.
    I'll bet Gabe looks back on this & has a good laugh at the sounds he was making while going down. He's a much braver person than I!!!!!!! I would have probably passed out from anxiety LONG before I ever made it all the way down!!!!!!! The good thing about a shaft this deep.......you'd have enough time to recite "The Lord's Prayer" before you hit bottom!!!!!!!

      @@exploringabandonedmines are you sure? As long as you can see each other, and there is a clear sight - a VHF or UHF radio should be able to communicate. But of course, the person on the top needs to hold the radio close to, or over the mine shaft. 100 - 200 m is no distance for a VHF/UHF radio - as long as there is no obstacles in the way. But maybe you are right, and maybe you have tried it and if so - i won't debate you :). Anyway, a very exciting video. Greetings from Norway. 73 LB5JG
