This video does not do justice of just how far you guys went into this cave! I've been down to the water and thats a longggg way! Such an amazing cave! If you guys are ever interested in a collab let me know!
Hell yeah you guys are two of my favorite exploring channels, I’d watch it! Let me know know if you want to collab with a third as well, I don’t have any videos posted on TH-cam yet but I’ve been exploring mines and such for years. All you guys are awesome about protecting and respecting the locations you go, so I’ve got some sweet spots here in Cali that I’d be willing to share with y’all, so although I wouldn’t be contributing to xtra viewers I have dope locations I can bring to the table at least.
Man, I love that you guys put what you did in that little intro/preface thing. That’s the attitude I wish more people had, especially those who see videos or articles of responsible respectful explorers then decide to go party and trash the spots that should be preserved, respected, and cherished for future generations. You guys kick ass. Keep up the good work.
@@preztrump4310 you would, ex-prez. By the way, president ≠ king. Once you get fired, you can’t claim it’s your blood right and get the job back. the past is in the paaaaasssst, let it go, let it goooooo!
With how IQ is dropping very hard for people to understand to preserve for future generations.. But then again.. I doubt we will be here very long.. We are in revelations. End of days.
@@kadoj I almost turned it off because of that bs. Who is even hanging out in caves other than cavers? How would they even know who to let in and not let in? They would have to hire someone to go in after every caver goes in to see if the left trash behind or the next guy could trash it up and just blame the previous guy.
Coming from a background of cave archaeology, I very much appreciate the recognition of caving responsibility at the beginning of this video. Keep up the great work
@@ActionAdventureTwins always such a shame. Not only does that keep responsible cavers out, it can destroy biodiversity and significantly disrupt bat roosts. I’m all for closing off caves to help the bats with the spread of white nose, but solid caps are just terrible. A gate would definitely be the way to go.
I really appreciate these videos! I would never in my life even go into the entrance of some of these caves. You guys answer every question I have about these caves, like do you run into bugs ( you even focused the camera on them a few times ) and if you ever see crystals. The ability to stay calm in situations like this is very encouraging. Blessings and thank you.
@@TheDamageinc81 i wasn't trying to prove ya wrong man, just thought it was funny enough people watched the video to all do the same thing. So much so that when you type in George cowardin into Google Richmond Virginia is automatically entered after his name

@@eltont862 I've driven the Grand Army Of the republic Highway. Been in the top gunbar. Been though there many times. First time wondered why my Lazer detector kept going off. Until I realized the pilot s were using my car to target. Well 160 mph in a vet 😁😁 Now I don't drive fast anymore. Older. Know more than I can speak. But, very special town friend. Very. Cool. I've mined, but west of there. Crazy how a little Vien can change ones life isn't it? And the craft... Yep. I'm aware. Had to add. Long ago. I can't drive 55!!! 😁😁
With the intro you put in, I completely agree. We cannot seal off every cave just because of people who don't respect them. We need a cave that everyone can explore to their hearts' content. I mean, in the level of expertise, that is. If we can give respect to the conservation. This one is really special that it does not need to be sealed. This one needs to be shared to those who will respect it.
I've been running your videos in the background for inspiration while I work. Really love the atmosphere of these caves and how respectful you guys are to the structures and wildlife within them. It's pretty cool!
It's always cool to see candid messages from the 1800s like this, especially considering how much harder it would have been to get there back then. Bros decide to explore a hole and 1M people experience it over a hundred years later. I know we don't want people damaging nature but it's a shame we're not leaving our mark in weird places like this for a future generation to find.
Man this brings me back to a time in 1986 I worked in Shoeles Indiana and three or four of us guys went to a ditch south of town and in a ditch was the entrance! I’m reliving that time watching this !!!! 🙏🏻 thanks
So glad u guys finally released the water tunnels version of that cave. Me and my buddy used to go to that cave literally once a week for a couple months. I was wondering if we were the only ones who crawled down into the water level. You gotta squeeze your head halfway under water past stalagmites just after the waterfall to keep going.
haha that is awesome! that's exactly how it was we were ducking under stalactites and basically swimming at one point we just forgot to record that part with the go pro! that cave is truly amazing.
@@ActionAdventureTwins It really is! Have y’all gone past the first drop off that goes to the waterfall? A little bit further up, there’s a second drop off that’s pretty cool. If u continue past that tho ur eventually crawling on ur hands and knees. Me and my buddy went abt 20 mins in straight crawling but next time plan to go further. A lot of mining artifacts further that way like old headlamp batteries as well as some clay figurines!
we did go into the second drop of that is where it says dead end written on a rock in this video. we should have kept going though maybe it wasn't a dead end after all. but yeah! we kept going straight for a really long time it got really tight and horrible someone wrote the place was hell and after that we had to turn around. we didn't see the clay figurines but saw some really old lamp battery packs and of course that 100 year old crush soda bottle
I have an elevator deeper than 1000 foot that starts in my basement. It still has working mechanicals and opens up to one of the most unique looking caves i have ever seen. We knew the house had a research mine but literally didn't know how deep until after purchase and then we were shocked. Supposedly the only reason for this massive drilling work was in the 60s the gubment was assessing the effect of the big boom booms on deep underground formations
Wow so cool to find under your home!!! If you want to know even more on the tunnels\cave system under your place regarding the govt research back in the day then do an FAOI request on it and inquire about it. It's very likely you can find out even more now (almost a decade later) of the very specifics on their research of the tunneling under your property..... Worth a try, never know what might turn up. Either way id love to make a discovery like that anywhere, much less underneath my own property!😜👍
There are legitimately few things I find to be more fascinating than stuff like this. Something about caverns/caves/tunnels and stiff like that.. especially "secret" ones... There are literally no words at least in the English language, that could properly articulate how utterly and insanely fascinated I am by them. Like, I legitimately have trouble watching videos like this.. not because of any claustrophobia but because I'm so fascinated by them, that I literally get anxious/twitchy and upset that I'm not there. I really want to start doing some cave exploring and stuff like this, but I wouldn't even know where to begin.
oh you got it bad haha just find an area with a lot of caves. the TAG region has the most caves but if you aren't there, there is still plenty of caves and mines in a lot of other states that can have crazy secrets and lots and lots of history, look up the caving and mining history of all the areas around you especially the hilly ones
@@ActionAdventureTwins I absolutely am haha. I don't know what it is about caves/caverns and tunnels, but just the whole idea of there being open spaces under the ground , of all different shapes and sizes, fascinates me like nothing else. Yeah, I may have to get on that sometime very soon. I live in a Washington state, really cllose to the Olympics.. so I'm sure there's plenty of places just waiting for me to explore. But I think watching you guys explore all these places has inspired me to finally go do it myself. Definitely will start slow, though. I have zero experience here, so it will probably be a while until im in places as hard core as you guys go to haha.
@@ldawg7117 If you can make it to KY, mammoth cave national park has great guided tours. there are a bunch of smaller caves in the region with guided tours.
The most dangerous thing you did was step on the crust around the waterfall. If you had fell into another chamber below. You might not have been able to climb up
They should fix the elevator and reopen this cave! It has too much human history behind it (literally thousands of years!) to be sealed away and forgotten just because of an elevator and a train tunnel!
Man, to see this cave lit with those lights again would be such a dream. Would feel so otherworldy but so cozy to me. Cant explain it, just know i want to see it 😢
I would've sworn that guy you were with the black shirt, had a beard when you guys went in....and then he DIDN'T have a beard on the way out?? What am I seeing? 😵
Beautiful stone formations and colors, it is stunnign what water and time can do... also fascinating how the type of cave you're walking to changes the sound of everything. I'm not sure how much the mic on the camera contributes to that, but near the entrance, the footsteps got a really weird sound to them, and when you reach the water, everything changes completely, down to the sound of the voices... and since caves are probably one of the few things in nature that scare the shit out of me, thanks for exploring and filming.
That was a GREAT JOB! Very nice cave. I know what cave that is and have always wanted to see it. The canyon passage looks awesome. I really enjoyed this post.
The kind of sediment rock type that is needed for this kind of caves makes earthquakes very unlikley. They need large limestone layers mixed with sandstone on top deposited by a river. Earthquake prone areas usually have more basalt rock and granite bedrock instead. Sure there can be some caves in basalt as well since old lava tubes is a thing in areas that no longer have much active volcanoes though they look very different.
@@Dragonited still freaks me out but I did go into a cave in the rainforest once. Half of it was swimming and it went on forever. The small little tight caves are the ones that make me uneasy.
The thing about caves is they've survived for thousands of years through all the large earthquakes, unless it's like an unstable rock pile type cave caves are usually pretty sturdy like there's always the chance for earthquake damage but even here in California where we have earthquakes daily we have limestone caves that survive just fine
Bravo fellas, thanks for taking on this journey! I don’t know why the F you guys do this but I’m happy to have enjoyed the journey from the comfort of my bed!
That is a really fun spelunk. I imagine there was a tour service operator on it years ago with the elevator and the old European spiral stairs they put in. How did a guy explore in 1865 with no battery flashlights? Wow, that must had been a slow, but epic explore for him. The bottle is a keeper!
@@Worldofourown2024 yeah carbide lamps are super cool cause they burn acetylene they produce from the carbide which is super bright it would definitely be wild having some little rocks to put in your lantern as your only light source though
@@noodlelynoodle. It was a clever little fairly bright torch light, but came with some risk of explosion with a reactive chemical process producing highly combustible gas coming out a pinhole in the reflective requiring regular cleaning.
Okay so I legitimately would like to know how you guys find your way back out of those places. You don't leave any markers and you go down so deep at some point everything looks the same doesn't it?
Couple things I need to ring in on! 1 thank u all for Poor taken this very scary venture for us to see a part of this construct we live in so thank u so much 2nd I’m so inspired by what I’m seeing I can’t even put it into words mabey in a few days I will it will take me that long to take in what I just saw that I truly never thought somthing so beautiful could exists still!!!! considering anything man gets there hands on gets ruined thank u it has given me. Different perspective… Rob
I just found your channel, and the videos you guys make are really f'n cool. This (and other videos of much more claustrophobic caves) reminds me of when I went spelunking in Yosemite. If you guys ever travel to Yosemite sometime, please check out the Spider Caves. It'd be awesome if you could make a video on them. A thrill of a lifetime for you and a trip down memory lane for me :)
I love the respect for nature and it’s beauty it’s not all about the thrill of caving but seeing something wonderful most people don’t get to experience
I know exactly where you guys are in this video. I actually live in that city and used to be an avid caver. If you guys go back I would love to TAG along.
I know I've been in this cave with you once before but I don't ever remember going to the end well anyway I had a good time thanks for the adventure take care of yourselves be careful.
Before I was fully grown (I was 5'11" 155lbs) I left an oval river stone from the Potomac river (in Maryland) , hidden in a spot that's not easy to get to. You have to shimmy a ways to get to it. I put my initials, J.E.B. on one side and Whoop! on the other. The stone is about 6-7" across the longest dimension and is about 2 inches thick in the middle. Tag me in a comment if you find it.
Is this the secondary cave at the foot of lookout mtn? I’ve been trying to find where this cave is and I’m not making much progress, I have an outdoors page and wanna go and journey through this cave but cannot find solid evidence of exactly where it’s at. Any help would be appreciated please!
I'm pretty sure that you're correct. The tour guide I was talking to said the way to get in the old part of the cave (used as a Civil War hospital) is in the tunnel the Southern Railroad Company built. *officials say it is blocked off but as you can see it's not
Thank you very much for sharing these tremendously fabulous explorations with your followers, these interiors of the earth are wonderful, they lead us to discover the beautiful planet we have, your experiences are unmatched!🙏😯💪👍👏💯
At 12:58 the corrosion on the rocks with the flowing little water fall is a good example on the effects of consistent flowing water on rocks. Pretty sure you can cut those out and make stone bowls out of em.
There are caves in Southern Kentucky that would absolutely blow your minds. Luckily they're kept secrete because everything would be ruined very quickly. These caves go VERY DEEP Underground. You know how massive mammoth cave is so you can imagine how big the ones are farther south. One of the caves " Allegedly" is where some guys found a type of rail system really far underground. Not like your typical train tracks though. They're saying its part of the secrete rail system that many claimed existed that stretches across the country and ties all military bases together as well as top officials of some of the major corporations. I can't confirm that, I was just told by a guy that is a brother to one of the men that found it. So take that with a grain of salt if you want. But I've seen enough other unbelievable things around there thats makes me feel not surprised if it turned out to be true. Theres many more scary things found in some of these caves there in Southern Kentucky. Ill tell you the general location because I know for a fact nobody will ever find them. Its unbelievable how they're hidden. They are somewhere around a small town called Monticello and the Daniel Boone National Forest. Beautiful mountains and country side. I wouldn't be caught dead in the Daniel Boone National Forest after dark though with all the scary things in there. During the day and with a crowd its absolutely breath taking as well. There are many other caves in that area that are awesome as well that are already known and would recommend them highly to any caves looking for new caves to explore. That state sits on top of limestone which is why there are so many caves. There are SOOOOOO many more that people know about there. The limestone also is why Kentucky is known as the bluegrass state. Grass gets so green that sometimes it almost has a blueish color at times. I love going back to that place. I much prefer Southern Kentucky though. Love to move there one day myself. Maybe after I finish my film about caving in Kentucky. Omitting certain caves of course. I found out about them early on into the project and slowly was directed to the brother. I was so impressed in the guys that found them. They had enough sense to NOT contact any government agency with their findings for obvious reasons. They would take it over and then deny its existence. No these guys did the rt thing and contacted professors and specialists etc and made sure they could trust them before allowing them to see what they had found. According to them once they're finished with their investigations etc, they will shares the findings with everybody. That to me was such a great move not contacting any Gov agencies police included because in the end it always ends up at the top. I will tell you this much....giants absolutely 100% walked these grounds at one time! Thanks to the Smithsonian most have no idea about all the skeletons of giants that have been found and many in Kentucky. There are these large hills and under some of the hills skeletons of giants were found and the Smithsonian quickly gathered them up and destroyed them. Those they didn't destroy were hidden away. For the longest time they were hidden in the basement of the Smithsonian but when the docs started coming out talking about all the giants that have been found over the years and then just vanished and the fingers started getting pointed at the Smithsonian...they got a bit nervous and they took them elsewhere. They will not destroy these because there were good DNA on them. My guess is Cloning. Yes its very real and has been going on secretly for a long time. They were forced underground so to speak because of the unethical concerns. Scary just thinking about them cloning a giant. So yeah....Kentucky is a very interesting place rt now.
It would be good to consider that meeting people in the subterranean areas might not be safe. DUMBS are built to bypass national laws, from what I hear.
The A A Twins are amazing. I'd bet that despite whatever conditions they encounter, if they had heart monitors placed on them, their heart rates would likely be pretty close to their normal ones. 'Big balls, cool tools', you guys are incredible explorers............
I’ve watched other channels videos of exploring the cave, and they only sent it the elevator shaft and turned around. Y’all actually push the envelope by far showing us more.
@@davidortiz3094 The state ordered it closed and made them cut the elevator cable. But don't worry, the operator has another very popular cave attraction 50 feet away
Amazing! The entrance and the submerged restriction seemed like the worst of this one! Absolutely beautiful, and balls of steel for going that deep! Haha 😅
Somebody spent a lot of time and money on fitting that cave out to be toured. Where exactly is this cave? I'm curious if someone is currently trying to fund operations there. It's a lovely cave, it should indeed be opened to the public
@@TheDamageinc81 That makes sense, but the dates don't match up to what I noticed. The wiring and equipment looks to date in the 70's, I think there is more history forgotten than what you said. Cool to know though, 😎
10:10 I have strong reason to believe that George Cowardin was a hand engraver in a family of jewelers. Would explain why it was so fancy!! ;) They still own an active jewelry shop, "Cowardin's" in Richmond, VA.
Just saw this, awesome vid!! I had a very burning question: have you guys or anyone ACTUALLY went all the way until the end of the "Dead End ☠️" path? I'm very curious if something was hidden there.
Silly question When you go mine exploring, AND know there is a probability of water as some point, How come you don't at least carry/pack In some full body wades. Too heavy ??? Thanks for sharing with us. Especially those of us who either don't have the money, transportation or possibly disabled. 💗💗💗
We don't bother with the waders, if we encounter water, we just go in anyways. The water is 56 degrees Fahrenheit which is cold but you wont freeze. At one point on this trip we were up to our chest in water but the go pro had died without us realizing it so we didn't capture it on camera.
To me this really seems like you're climbing around inside a melted building. Imagine the water just surging out of nowhere while you're down there. You've got a sack on you, no denying that.
Was searching for the M Cave and stumbled here ........lol but wow our Earth is very mysterious and fascinating at the same time thanks for sharing with us and always be cautious.
This is a cave that I would love to check out! I’ve been in the caves out in Dahlonega Ga out in the woods, my Granddaddy used to mine those caves……some of those are beautiful, but this one is gorgeous 😍❤
Amazing video, guys. You got some really beautiful shots. May I make a suggestion for the narrator? One less bowl before the next one? LOLOL You’ve got a pot laugh to rival the best of them!
Wow I don’t know how you guys don’t get lost, I get lost in Minecraft caves 🤣 lmao but on a serious note your bravery is outstanding I’m praying for you and your friends stay safe in these narrow caves! Godspeed and God be with you
What you stated, in the beginning, is why I have secret lava tubes/caves. Only a couple trusted people know their locations to protect them. Others do know because I've seen evidence of them being down there (Stacked rocks markers). Too many delicate features that a crowd of people would easily destroy. Thankfully the openings are so difficult to find they don't even show on Google Earth. No one carving names and dates, etc... They're also too dangerous to encourage or show the inexperienced where they are.

oh you got it bad haha just find an area with a lot of caves. the TAG region has the most caves but if you aren't there, there is still plenty of caves and mines in a lot of other states that can have crazy secrets and lots and lots of history, look up the caving and mining history of all the areas around you especially the hilly ones
@@ActionAdventureTwins I absolutely am haha. I don't know what it is about caves/caverns and tunnels, but just the whole idea of there being open spaces under the ground , of all different shapes and sizes, fascinates me like nothing else. Yeah, I may have to get on that sometime very soon. I live in a Washington state, really cllose to the Olympics.. so I'm sure there's plenty of places just waiting for me to explore. But I think watching you guys explore all these places has inspired me to finally go do it myself. Definitely will start slow, though. I have zero experience here, so it will probably be a while until im in places as hard core as you guys go to haha.
So was it a tourist cave?
Please consider how horrible it would be to die in a cave before you go. Don’t get too gung ho be safe
@@ldawg7117 If you can make it to KY, mammoth cave national park has great guided tours. there are a bunch of smaller caves in the region with guided tours.
Absolutely amazing and telling of how big this planet and everything underneath us really is!
fareal tho...
God is Great! Because He is the Creator:D
Read journey to the center of the earth.. Its hollow
The most dangerous thing you did was step on the crust around the waterfall. If you had fell into another chamber below. You might not have been able to climb up
They should fix the elevator and reopen this cave! It has too much human history behind it (literally thousands of years!) to be sealed away and forgotten just because of an elevator and a train tunnel!
Man, to see this cave lit with those lights again would be such a dream. Would feel so otherworldy but so cozy to me. Cant explain it, just know i want to see it 😢
You guys got a nice zest for going places . This trip 👳 into the void was a good one .
Cool cave system 👍 It's like being in the Goonies movie Finding the ship and treasure at the end 😂
I would've sworn that guy you were with the black shirt, had a beard when you guys went in....and then he DIDN'T have a beard on the way out?? What am I seeing? 😵
Beautiful stone formations and colors, it is stunnign what water and time can do... also fascinating how the type of cave you're walking to changes the sound of everything. I'm not sure how much the mic on the camera contributes to that, but near the entrance, the footsteps got a really weird sound to them, and when you reach the water, everything changes completely, down to the sound of the voices... and since caves are probably one of the few things in nature that scare the shit out of me, thanks for exploring and filming.
That was a GREAT JOB! Very nice cave. I know what cave that is and have always wanted to see it. The canyon passage looks awesome.
I really enjoyed this post.
I keep thinking about an earthquake happening while caving and it sends chills up my spine!!! Very impressive cave system!
The kind of sediment rock type that is needed for this kind of caves makes earthquakes very unlikley. They need large limestone layers mixed with sandstone on top deposited by a river. Earthquake prone areas usually have more basalt rock and granite bedrock instead. Sure there can be some caves in basalt as well since old lava tubes is a thing in areas that no longer have much active volcanoes though they look very different.
@@Dragonited still freaks me out but I did go into a cave in the rainforest once. Half of it was swimming and it went on forever. The small little tight caves are the ones that make me uneasy.
The thing about caves is they've survived for thousands of years through all the large earthquakes, unless it's like an unstable rock pile type cave caves are usually pretty sturdy like there's always the chance for earthquake damage but even here in California where we have earthquakes daily we have limestone caves that survive just fine
You guys show us a lot of hidden things or something like the truth inside an abandoned tunnel.thank you
Completely agree with you there, some folk just don't deserve the beauty. What a stunning place.
Bravo fellas, thanks for taking on this journey!
I don’t know why the F you guys do this but I’m happy to have enjoyed the journey from the comfort of my bed!
My back hurts just from watching this. 😂 Thanks for posting these fellas!
That is a really fun spelunk. I imagine there was a tour service operator on it years ago with the elevator and the old European spiral stairs they put in. How did a guy explore in 1865 with no battery flashlights? Wow, that must had been a slow, but epic explore for him. The bottle is a keeper!
kerosene lantern?
Carbide mine lamps😮
@@ronalddaub9740 Oh OK. Yea, I read a carbide lamp burned white which is like LED in a sense. So they did have lights! Cool.
@@Worldofourown2024 yeah carbide lamps are super cool cause they burn acetylene they produce from the carbide which is super bright it would definitely be wild having some little rocks to put in your lantern as your only light source though
@@noodlelynoodle. It was a clever little fairly bright torch light, but came with some risk of explosion with a reactive chemical process producing highly combustible gas coming out a pinhole in the reflective requiring regular cleaning.
Seeing all of those old dates are awesome
Okay so I legitimately would like to know how you guys find your way back out of those places. You don't leave any markers and you go down so deep at some point everything looks the same doesn't it?
I believe they use the markings on the wall already, like going in a hiking trail and having signs.
They drop popcorn
Couple things I need to ring in on! 1 thank u all for Poor taken this very scary venture for us to see a part of this construct we live in so thank u so much 2nd I’m so inspired by what I’m seeing I can’t even put it into words mabey in a few days I will it will take me that long to take in what I just saw that I truly never thought somthing so beautiful could exists still!!!! considering anything man gets there hands on gets ruined thank u it has given me. Different perspective… Rob
Man I’d be afraid I’d get lost and not be able to find my way back out!
cave diver here with over 20,000 dives. love ur videos!!!!
I just found your channel, and the videos you guys make are really f'n cool. This (and other videos of much more claustrophobic caves) reminds me of when I went spelunking in Yosemite. If you guys ever travel to Yosemite sometime, please check out the Spider Caves. It'd be awesome if you could make a video on them. A thrill of a lifetime for you and a trip down memory lane for me :)
Thanks man! If were in the area we will definitely check it out!
I love the respect for nature and it’s beauty it’s not all about the thrill of caving but seeing something wonderful most people don’t get to experience
I know exactly where you guys are in this video. I actually live in that city and used to be an avid caver. If you guys go back I would love to TAG along.
I know where there at just curious as to how they got in. To my knowledge the only entrance was in a tunnel, and was sealed in 2005 ish.
That distance sound at (TS) 10:36 wasn't made by either one of you 3. Great Video
Creepy
Thank you for exposing these caves now I see where they take people that is missing
The signature from 1911, can you imagine exploring the cave in 1911 with the lighting they would have used back then. Unreal!
How you guys EVER find your way back out AMAZEZ me! Thks fir the video & happy exploring!
I know I've been in this cave with you once before but I don't ever remember going to the end well anyway I had a good time thanks for the adventure take care of yourselves be careful.
Before I was fully grown (I was 5'11" 155lbs) I left an oval river stone from the Potomac river (in Maryland) , hidden in a spot that's not easy to get to. You have to shimmy a ways to get to it. I put my initials, J.E.B. on one side and Whoop! on the other. The stone is about 6-7" across the longest dimension and is about 2 inches thick in the middle. Tag me in a comment if you find it.
Is this the secondary cave at the foot of lookout mtn? I’ve been trying to find where this cave is and I’m not making much progress, I have an outdoors page and wanna go and journey through this cave but cannot find solid evidence of exactly where it’s at. Any help would be appreciated please!
I'm pretty sure that you're correct. The tour guide I was talking to said the way to get in the old part of the cave (used as a Civil War hospital) is in the tunnel the Southern Railroad Company built. *officials say it is blocked off but as you can see it's not
Thank you very much for sharing these tremendously fabulous explorations with your followers, these interiors of the earth are wonderful, they lead us to discover the beautiful planet we have, your experiences are unmatched!🙏😯💪👍👏💯
At 12:58 the corrosion on the rocks with the flowing little water fall is a good example on the effects of consistent flowing water on rocks. Pretty sure you can cut those out and make stone bowls out of em.
Some info about what this place is and where it is in the video would be helpful. I can't hear the dude talking he's not facing the camera lol
Nope. It’ll be guys like you that ruin places like this by steaming or something about it.
Just stay on the internet where you belong or in your city please.
Sorry bud get back behind to ur computer screen.
@@GraniteMtn618 What a nice community you cave climbers are.
@@nonethelessfirst8519 you guys are such a nice community.
Glad somebody has the balls that I lack to do something like this. Cheers, fellows!! Nice work
There are caves in Southern Kentucky that would absolutely blow your minds. Luckily they're kept secrete because everything would be ruined very quickly. These caves go VERY DEEP Underground. You know how massive mammoth cave is so you can imagine how big the ones are farther south. One of the caves " Allegedly" is where some guys found a type of rail system really far underground. Not like your typical train tracks though. They're saying its part of the secrete rail system that many claimed existed that stretches across the country and ties all military bases together as well as top officials of some of the major corporations. I can't confirm that, I was just told by a guy that is a brother to one of the men that found it. So take that with a grain of salt if you want. But I've seen enough other unbelievable things around there thats makes me feel not surprised if it turned out to be true. Theres many more scary things found in some of these caves there in Southern Kentucky. Ill tell you the general location because I know for a fact nobody will ever find them. Its unbelievable how they're hidden. They are somewhere around a small town called Monticello and the Daniel Boone National Forest. Beautiful mountains and country side. I wouldn't be caught dead in the Daniel Boone National Forest after dark though with all the scary things in there. During the day and with a crowd its absolutely breath taking as well. There are many other caves in that area that are awesome as well that are already known and would recommend them highly to any caves looking for new caves to explore. That state sits on top of limestone which is why there are so many caves. There are SOOOOOO many more that people know about there. The limestone also is why Kentucky is known as the bluegrass state. Grass gets so green that sometimes it almost has a blueish color at times. I love going back to that place. I much prefer Southern Kentucky though. Love to move there one day myself. Maybe after I finish my film about caving in Kentucky. Omitting certain caves of course. I found out about them early on into the project and slowly was directed to the brother. I was so impressed in the guys that found them. They had enough sense to NOT contact any government agency with their findings for obvious reasons. They would take it over and then deny its existence. No these guys did the rt thing and contacted professors and specialists etc and made sure they could trust them before allowing them to see what they had found. According to them once they're finished with their investigations etc, they will shares the findings with everybody. That to me was such a great move not contacting any Gov agencies police included because in the end it always ends up at the top. I will tell you this much....giants absolutely 100% walked these grounds at one time! Thanks to the Smithsonian most have no idea about all the skeletons of giants that have been found and many in Kentucky. There are these large hills and under some of the hills skeletons of giants were found and the Smithsonian quickly gathered them up and destroyed them. Those they didn't destroy were hidden away. For the longest time they were hidden in the basement of the Smithsonian but when the docs started coming out talking about all the giants that have been found over the years and then just vanished and the fingers started getting pointed at the Smithsonian...they got a bit nervous and they took them elsewhere. They will not destroy these because there were good DNA on them. My guess is Cloning. Yes its very real and has been going on secretly for a long time. They were forced underground so to speak because of the unethical concerns. Scary just thinking about them cloning a giant. So yeah....Kentucky is a very interesting place rt now.
It would be good to consider that meeting people in the subterranean areas might not be safe. DUMBS are built to bypass national laws, from what I hear.
Great read! Thanks for sharing!
The A A Twins are amazing. I'd bet that despite whatever conditions they encounter, if they had heart monitors placed on them, their heart rates would likely be pretty close to their normal ones. 'Big balls, cool tools', you guys are incredible explorers............
@13:08 what's that blue thing in front of your hand?
I’ve watched other channels videos of exploring the cave, and they only sent it the elevator shaft and turned around. Y’all actually push the envelope by far showing us more.
Wonder if any Confederate soldiers used that cave system with some of those signature dates. Great video as always
Glad you can remember how to get out.
Somebody tried to turn this cave into a tourist attraction but it didn't work out.
I wonder why
@@davidortiz3094 probably liability reasons
@@davidortiz3094 The state ordered it closed and made them cut the elevator cable. But don't worry, the operator has another very popular cave attraction 50 feet away
@@neobayer what's the name?
Lookout mountain cave but ruby falls just above it is still open
Amazing! The entrance and the submerged restriction seemed like the worst of this one! Absolutely beautiful, and balls of steel for going that deep! Haha 😅
Somebody spent a lot of time and money on fitting that cave out to be toured. Where exactly is this cave? I'm curious if someone is currently trying to fund operations there. It's a lovely cave, it should indeed be opened to the public
It used to be a hospital for confederate soldiers in the Civil War.
@@TheDamageinc81 That makes sense, but the dates don't match up to what I noticed. The wiring and equipment looks to date in the 70's, I think there is more history forgotten than what you said. Cool to know though, 😎
@@CommunityGuidelinez I think the railroad company put that infrastructure in.
@@TheDamageinc81wow! Very interesting.
I bet the dude who wrote his name and 1911 never woulda imagine he would be on a TH-cam video super cool
If the trash is just left there in a hundred years it’ll be treasure to those people just like the old trash is to us now.
10:10 I have strong reason to believe that George Cowardin was a hand engraver in a family of jewelers. Would explain why it was so fancy!! ;) They still own an active jewelry shop, "Cowardin's" in Richmond, VA.
Just saw this, awesome vid!! I had a very burning question: have you guys or anyone ACTUALLY went all the way until the end of the "Dead End ☠️" path? I'm very curious if something was hidden there.
Same 😅 I'm guessing death and or a big drop or strong stream but I have no clue! Might see if its mapped or something
Much respect for these videos! I love watching them! It gives me an adrenaline rush 😂
Silly question
When you go mine exploring, AND know there is a probability of water as some point,
How come you don't at least carry/pack
In some full body wades. Too heavy ???
Thanks for sharing with us. Especially those of us who either don't have the money, transportation or possibly disabled. 💗💗💗
We don't bother with the waders, if we encounter water, we just go in anyways. The water is 56 degrees Fahrenheit which is cold but you wont freeze. At one point on this trip we were up to our chest in water but the go pro had died without us realizing it so we didn't capture it on camera.
Standing water in old mines can trap gasses that can kill you if the water becomes disturbed
Man watching these tight spaces makes me so uneasy. Great video 👍🏾
Does this cave have a name?
Visit Ruby Falls, it has everything you want.
من که درمنزل در ایران نشده ام همراه با شما دراین غار نوردی هم راه شما هستم سپاسگزارم خسته نباشید و موفق باشید ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi 👋👋
Just came from watching videos of people dying from either falling or getting stuck in caves. Makes this look all the more dangerously risky.
Wow! Man the erosion and the deposition in the waterway was amazing!
NNNEEEEERRRDDDDD
To me this really seems like you're climbing around inside a melted building. Imagine the water just surging out of nowhere while you're down there. You've got a sack on you, no denying that.
I am Glued to your channel... Just amazing... Thankyou 👍..I love it when you find water...
Im shocked they didnt go down those stairs. Usually if something is scary, bad and sketchy, you boys love it 😂😂
This channel is just pure gold bro. Hats off.
Was searching for the M Cave and stumbled here ........lol but wow our Earth is very mysterious and fascinating at the same time thanks for sharing with us and always be cautious.
you're inside something more ancent then you know... the fact that people renovated it means that there was something there in the first place.
Those waterfalls and the cave formations were sick af!
Thanks man! we can't wait to come explore some caves up near you soon!!
Two new words I've learned from this channel are Formation & Artifacts.
I'm trying to figure out how someone got the elevator doors into the cave and the cement blocks. Must be another entrance.
I have a hard time catching my breath even trying to watch this video. Just slammed a glass of wine with a 5mg. val. Let's enjoy..........
I really envy you guys that can do this. It is so cool.
This is a cave that I would love to check out! I’ve been in the caves out in Dahlonega Ga out in the woods, my Granddaddy used to mine those caves……some of those are beautiful, but this one is gorgeous 😍❤
All the little pockets carved out of the steps on that waterfall were so damn kool
Loving this, I keep ducking my head lol totally amazing down there wish I had the courage to explore them deeper..
Amazing video, guys. You got some really beautiful shots. May I make a suggestion for the narrator? One less bowl before the next one? LOLOL You’ve got a pot laugh to rival the best of them!
Just looked up and found out about George Cowardin in Richmond. Was born in 1886 so would have been 25. Pretty neat
Man I would get so lost trying to get back out .. I don’t know how you guys don’t loose your sense of direction
Wonderful underground
Caves
You are are a real Hero's
Thank you
Too dangerous stay safe we love you and your efforts
Wow I don’t know how you guys don’t get lost, I get lost in Minecraft caves 🤣 lmao but on a serious note your bravery is outstanding I’m praying for you and your friends stay safe in these narrow caves! Godspeed and God be with you
Thanks! I've wanted to see what was in there since I was a kid in the '70s.
What you stated, in the beginning, is why I have secret lava tubes/caves. Only a couple trusted people know their locations to protect them. Others do know because I've seen evidence of them being down there (Stacked rocks markers). Too many delicate features that a crowd of people would easily destroy. Thankfully the openings are so difficult to find they don't even show on Google Earth. No one carving names and dates, etc... They're also too dangerous to encourage or show the inexperienced where they are.
Perhaps you could record a video of them without divulging their location.
@@burtpanzer I have posted several of them. Short and full versions all POV minimal talking.
That was hella fun! I would've worried that the bottom would drop out in several places. I salute you guys! Safe and fun exploring to you!!! Thanx-)
