    Some other troubling aspects to this story that weren't touched on in the vid.. Floyd was all scratched up and had open wounds which were constantly being exposed to water that was mixing with his poo. If he didn't die in the cave, he may have died anyway from disease or perhaps blood clots from remaining locked in place for so many days, especially with 1920's medical.
    Also, that whole 4hr moment with Miller trying to free the leg just had me thinking of what the smell must've been like for him in that spot @_@ (in addition to trying to concentrate while doing a full body stretched contortion while upside down)

      Part of it is that a lot of people then wanted to preserve the "purity" of the experience by making it a bit of a struggle to move around. Part of it was probably to impact the stability of the cave as little as possible. And honestly, he was probably hoping to make his job easier by opening up the cave to tourism first and using the proceeds to open up the pathway more.

      My guess is that the main entrance was more or less a security deterrent as no one was willing to go past the turnaround but him thus if he got to where he needed to be he could easily look around for better points of interest to make it more accessible instead of his way of entry.... or he was an idiot who thought everyone would be super willing to crawl in a 9in non-supported hole to look at some fancy white rocks for a silver doller, idk 1920s where wild after The Grate War.

    You've probably already learned this from researching yourself or the comments section, but back then water purification was not as prevalent as it is today.
    It also wasn't shoved down everyone's throat with the constant "You need to drink more water" rhetoric that goes around today. (as if water is a cure-all.) So the question of "why not water?" is because it simply didn't come to anyone's mind for it to be the first thing to think of.
    Coffee, alcohol, etc were the main drink's mostly because of all the processes they went through to create them. They were seen as 'healthier' because there would be a lack of parasites, diseases in it, etc... that un-purified water can carry.
    I mean even where I live, in Kentucky, we're constantly advised to boil our tap water before drinking it. (Because the government is far too lazy to do any decent repair work on the main water pipes) So people either buy bottled water at the store, or just don't drink water here. (Cause the water in kentucky (in most places) still contains rust, lead, dirt... whatever is in the ancient pipeline. They only repair and/or replace the main pipeline when it finally breaks and they "have" to do it.
    So, it makes sense that water was not a "go to" thing at the time (it probably still wouldn't be, even in modern kentucky)
