Typically karst areas only, otherwise we drill to underground aquifers like porous bedrock past confining layers that hold water. Most are not underground caves but layers of porous substrate like sand and gravels, bedrock fractures
Do you have a pic of how you fastened your camera to the downhole rig? I’d like to do the same for my old well, but don’t want to risk losing my camera.
I think it'd be neat if somebody did a bore exploration video like this only to find small critters living in some water-filled void. It would be an opportunity for doing some science at that point. (If things could live off of deep ocean vents, then why not some other mineral consuming bacteria?)
and this is why my former landlord told me not to drink out of the tap it was well water, that shit stunk and gave me heartburn. i thought wells were clean
No normally, the PVC extends to stable rock. In my area casing typically is only the first 60-80ft of a 200-foot well. Below that, the bedrock will be fractured, allowing water to flow. This well appears to be drilled down into an aquifer that looks like it has been pumped dry. This is not what a well typically looks like inside. At least in my area. The purpose of casing and casing grout is to keep surface water out of the borehole in order to prevent chemicals and pathogens from the surface groundwater from entering the well. Casting is also used to keep soft layers from collapsing into the borehole, but casing is expensive so it typically stops at stable rock.
PVC casing? And it appears badly ruptured. Well casings in the NE are typically steel and about 50’ long. 100’ if you have a well driller who isn’t a gambler. And an aquifer that low would be a sign to move. Cool video tho.
I'm trying to figure out the insane pump you need to get the water up this high, or am I missing something here? (drilling wells isn't very common in The Netherlands, where I'm from, though they used to be more common in rurar areas back in the days)

Crazy that there's just ground water and MASSIVE underground caves under us everywhere at all times

This is one of trippiest videos I’ve randomly come across 🗿
That ended well.
Well done 👏
Well played good sir, well played
Oh well.
Bazinga
👏👏👏👏
Never saw the bottom of a well before so thanks for your video.
"The Texans dug too greedily and too deep, but the Balrog couldn't fit through the well bore, so everything turned out okay."
Reminds me of that scene in Bill & Ted where they're falling to Hell but it takes so long they start playing 20 questions on the way down.
Imagine forgetting to hit record
if he had live feed above he could go further in.
So much effort it too this great job!!
That's one heck of a selfie stick
You are not supposed to mine straight down. Did minecraft teach us nothing!
darn lucky that all that bouncing around didn't take the camera off
Thanks man it gives goosebumps
amazingo! there's couple of cave! sick
3:19 one of the rarest green smaragds ... 25K just sitting down there
How can you tell it's emerald? Genuinely curious
Looks nothing like a Minecraft emerald, how could you tell
Do you have a pic of how you fastened your camera to the downhole rig? I’d like to do the same for my old well, but don’t want to risk losing my camera.
all that dry filterpack. Mined aquifer or seasonal variation? Pump test time? The slots look as though cut with a circular saw as often done.
Very cool !!!
well done man
Liked it allot, what well pump have to go through 😮, I would have stopped and checked that green blockage on pvc 6”
Who else got claustrophobia watching this video ???
I did. It got pretty scary mid way through.
Ja
Casing is broke about 100-150' down. It will let grout, sediment, contaminated water through..its at the 2 min mark in the vid
Deep hole. Also the water was so clear down there.
What is that at the bottom of the home?
What's the green thing at 3:19 ? I'm assuming debris from up top or a piece of the casing.
Upon first glance, I thought it was a piece of plastic until I looked up what jade is.
@@blackout7028 That's makes sense.
it was a piece of tape
I almost hypnotized 😂
Pretty well
There's a water-resistant balrog down there.
The second half of this video felt like being chased by a creeping darkness
2:00 bro hit a leaf...
2:20. Looks more like a piece of green plastic scrap.
Amazing caves😂
You know that scene in the Lord of the Rings, when Gandalf and the Balrog are falling and falling to the subterranean sea in the depths of Khazad-dûm?
All's well that ends well
It looks like there's been some tectonic movement. Are you going to try to salvage it?
No looks like the aquifer is down. It may be time to drill another well.
I'm too claustrophobic for this shit
@@inkedtoo1097 i'm with ya started sweating watching this
Looks like an episode of "Curse of Oak Island".
Si tratta di un pozzo artesiano ad uso domestico?

How to take the water?
This reminded me of the intro to Dr.Who.
What's the green thing at 2:18
👍
good luck getting a pump down that thing.
At 2:20, how the hell is a plant growing down there???
Looks like a green tape
I did not know that backwards hyperspace was possible.
Looks like a colonoscopy exam…
omg thats deep.
300 feet, most wells in my area are at 400.
Well done
Subject matter with deep content. Thanks TH-cam
I can see Gold there take me in😮
Your turd’s POV as you’re rushing to the bathroom:
and this is why my former landlord told me not to drink out of the tap it was well water, that shit stunk and gave me heartburn. i thought wells were clean
If you live in an area with a lot of fracking, I would not advise to drink well water either.
I do this but with a 20k borehole camera but looking into coal mines for foundation design
tnx amezing

I’m a little confused, I thought the pvc was suppose to be submerged in the water. How do you guide the pump to the water?
Normally it is. This well has a low water level, maybe from drought.
No normally, the PVC extends to stable rock. In my area casing typically is only the first 60-80ft of a 200-foot well. Below that, the bedrock will be fractured, allowing water to flow.

Wonder what happened at 2:06? A bit of a disconnect.
Tectonic activity
You should had put depth reading as it goes down till touching.
Welletywelletywell
2:45 its now in a cave
It's a bore not a well...a very dry bore, that aquifer is depleted.
PVC casing? And it appears badly ruptured. Well casings in the NE are typically steel and about 50’ long. 100’ if you have a well driller who isn’t a gambler. And an aquifer that low would be a sign to move. Cool video tho.
This is likely in the hill country, given that it’s drilled into limestone. And I’ve worked on some wells that were 700 feet deep.
I live in the NE and mine is 450' steel casing. Holds about 600 gallons.
Exactly what I was thinking.
I'm trying to figure out the insane pump you need to get the water up this high, or am I missing something here? (drilling wells isn't very common in The Netherlands, where I'm from, though they used to be more common in rurar areas back in the days)
There’s a huge space at the end
There are a lot of caves in this area.
@@andywende4189
How big? 100s of miles of underground caves with its vast network that can make a person lost easily.
This is why "can't find the hole" jokes exist
I'll bet it caused a moment or two of consternation every time the drill dropped into one of those smaller "caves" and dropped a foot or two.😕☹😮😮😮
The well ending
Well I’ll be damned
3:24 i want to sit and live there.
well well well what do we have here
Well...
Whoever drilled that well ought to be sued. 10-20 feet with no pipe? No gravel? You can see where the foot has been sitting stuck in the clay.
🏊 300 3:35
What a horrible feeling watching that
Jimmy Hoffa ?
Don't drink the well water in Texas .... ✔️
Phone numbur pls

Question what are those cut slits looks like 3 two on the top and one at the bottom they start pretty deep 2
When the water rises because of much rain or other cases, it can sink into the ground trough these cuts so it doesn‘t rise til the top of the pipe
Cool thanks
🤦 damn I should have realized that again thanks
It's to let water in from the aquifer, a pump is installed in the bore to pump the water out.
oil well right?
Water
D-did you see oil or water down there?
Bhai aapka contact no send kijiye
Kya karega
