One really messed up story not here is that of Peter Verhulsel. He got lost while cave diving in Sterkfontein Cave but then managed to find a large chamber with air. Problem was, rescuers thought he probably drowned and the rescue operation was called off shortly after. He survived in that chamber for three WEEKS before dying of starvation.
Dddaammmnnn
Jesus Christ that’s horrifying
Im really drunk rn, ill never go diving
TH-cam comments
WHAT THE FUCK
I am fascinated with caves but i cannot stand the idea of crawling thru a tiny space on my belly. That's terrifying.
Fr bro let robotics take over this field of exploration
Let the minecraft players do it
There are a few personal rules i follow when going cave exploring:
1) dont go alone
2) never go if theres even the smallest chance of rain
3) always keep backup flashlights and batteries on me at all times
4) always make sure several people know exactly where i'm going and when i'll be back
And finally:
5) unless i'm 100% certain that myself and those i'm with will not get stuck, never ever go into small holes with no way to turn around.
I haven't been cave exploring often cuss lots of people i've gone with have called me a hardass, but then again i am still alive and have never even remotely been in danger while caving.
also america is mcdonalds land
FUN FACT: I heard on another video that in Sand Cave, he was actually going there quite frequently to remove debris to uncover more areas, he actually was quite comfortable going in and out of the cave. Eventually, he got stuck and knocked over the lantern. (breaking it) Then, he tried to unlodge himself by pushing on some rock to get out. The rock then fell and trapped him. (I think that's how it happened, I saw it on another caving video, but who knows, misinformation is everywhere and I might just be another subject to its misguidance).
also that a copper wire was stuck through attaching to a lightbulb that he was holding for warmth. I might be mistaking this for something else
Pretty sure internet historian made a video about this, and yes all your details are correct. Tho also not just a rock fell on his leg but a ton of gravel also. Additionally the only people who would go down their for a couple of days were Floyd’s brother, a friend of his, and a journalist trying to interview him.
@@tedthemon555 thank you for confirming this to me
Man in cave?
@@Blookybloockster yep
*The last one is what broke me the most because I saw this in a Nat Geo documentary about the Nutty Putty cave incident :') and that was the reason why I developed claustrophobia.... It really broke me and terrified me at the same time...*
:’) 👈🏻🤨 Wrong one? Did you mean to put :’( ? Because that one makes more sense!
Same!! That’s literally one of the most disturbing things I’ve ever heard. I’m scared of that.
ive seen it before but a more elongated and more in detail video, it was actually terrible noone should have to go through that, no matter how bad of a person they are its tragic for the people that lost their lives i hope they live in peace forever and their familys are doing okay
I was listening and had hope he would escape but then The Snap came and I realized that he wouldn't survive
same bro he was so close, then a snap and its over
Idk why, but watching this gives me claustrophobia, but doing it myself doesn't.
A
A
It is a list of tragedies after all lol
On a totally unrelated note the map of unexplored caves and missing people have a massive correlation with each other. Dont put your life on the line stay away from caves.
but what if im a Miner?
@@weirdnesslord8573Who is mining in unexplored caves?
Dave Shaw's story is strangely poetic and bittersweet
I'm not even claustrophobic, but I'd still never go into a tight cave like that. I get stuck above ground, more than likely if someone knows I'm there they can get me out. I get stuck in a rocky cave underground, any attempts to save me could likely kill me faster.
i agree, the smallest place id go would be under my bed, but if i were to find a small soace the same size as beneath my bed, i would not go there
It’s so tight in those spaces down there. I could never go caving.
sorry about this but it must be done "thats what she said" i am so srry for doing that but someone had too! :(
@@tucker2901 I walked into it.
ty for not being mad at me but it just had to be done@@ebeneezerscrooge2942
that's what he said@@tucker2901
Imagine being stuck in a cave and random ass people say its fake or staged for attention 😂😂😂
Bro i dont understand how people willingly cave dive through tight tunnels in the dark
Your editing is getting really good!
th-cam.com/video/r_cRbEAb9lA/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=n8wealth 1:45
The too late with a skeleton tho 🤣
Wym? There’s so many bad transitions and spelling and grammar errors 😂
In all the versions I heard of the Deon Dreyer and Dave Shaw story, they didn’t go down and attach anything to them after the accident. They had decided that it was too dangerous to send anyone else down there so they intended to just leave them. The only reason the bodies came out was because they went back to remove all the gear they had left after the accident. They pulled on the line that was placed to help guide Dave to the bottom and to Deon’s body. When they pulled on that, it just happened to be one of the lines Dave was tangled in so it pulled his and Deon’s bodies to the surface. So in a sadly poetic turn of events, Dave really did end up bringing Deon’s body back to the surface. 😔 At least he succeeded in his last mission.
I've come across each of these stories over a few different channels the past year or two. And I must say that you've done them all an honor in your re-telling of them. I've even watched the longer documentary on the tragedy of Dave Shaw's dive attempt. I'll never know why people put themselves in situations like these. Perhaps it's because I'm not the skinniest or smallest of guys. Maybe it's because I don't care for deep water nor do I have the patience to do compression stops to dive at depth. Or I could just be a skeered of being dead when I could easily avoid it all together. I guess we all have different ways of finding excitement in life. Whatever the case may be, I thoroughly enjoy this channel and the safety it provides as I watch people either much more brave or a little less smart than I venture out into the world to not only do things but do things in places that I try my best to actively avoid!
Perfect comment!! Do you mind adding me to it bc I feel the same way!!!
I will state this as it's needed. A 30% chance of rain doesn't mean it might rain. It means it WILL rain, only 30% of people will see it.
Misinterpretation:
• There's a common misconception that a "30% chance of rain" refers to the percentage of the area that will receive rain. For instance, some people might think that if there's a "30% chance of rain," then 30% of the area will receive rainfall. However, this interpretation is not correct according to the standard way meteorologists express precipitation probabilities
The editing is absolutely crazy!! Love your vids . Keeps making them ❤❤
did anyone else notice the shocked guy meme at 21:39?
hopefully it wasnt just me
I did
Idk how some of your videos have such few views, when your editing is so good and the narration is high quality
"Cave exploring can be one of the most rewarding experiences one can have"
LITERALLY no reward. A waste of time, energy, and dangerous (sometimes lethal).
Dang dude, your content is amazing. Discovered it yesterday and I’m gonna say you earned my subscribe! You don’t just talk about stuff, you actually analyze it and tell the story. Thank you.
those stories are horrifying. i would never go caving.. even tho this video needs more views and likes. its clear there was alot of work pt in this vid
5:15 overconfidence can f you up
The last story made me cry 😭
Dude.. I felt a fucking chill and had tears in my eyes man.. i'm glad that he at least had that radio at the end.. 🥹
I appreciate the Man in a Hole inspiration, beautiful video.
You deserve 100 times you subscribers and views keep up the good work!
why am I watching this? I have claustrophobia! make me stop!
N o
No
To me this is absolute pure nightmare fuel. The ocean is scary. But caves with water, no, just no.
These stories are literal nightmare fuel.
Props to the editing of this video
This is fucking stressful. I can’t stop watching, this video is so good
youve got no idea how much i love your editing, and the litle "Yes this is how they dig." and "Spoiler: Hes dead."
man this man has some great humor
im not a claustrophobic, but im not going cave exploring anymore
""It's a fucking skeleton"
"Of course it wouldn't float"
"What the.."
Why you'll never find me in a cave (except for Minecraft 😃)
9:25 Nutty Putty cave would beg to differ.
The last one is by far the worst, its what I fear about cave exploring
The last one is just terrible in every way and I am so claustrophobic about it
Exactly bro, he was stuck there, and when he finally got a glimmer of hope, it was taken away almost immediately
That Part where you Introduce John Jones and then have a Graphic Drop a Giant Stone on top of Him....was a little Crude...
17:02 bro looks like the og spiderman
Love ur channel broski
I wanna go back in time and find the mf that looked at the tiniest little cave tunnel and said "Im gonna go through that and normalize it" and when I find him im gonna slap him
Bro slap him? I’m finna make him extremely claustrophobic for normalizing risking your life crawling in dark and tight spaces that aren’t as fun as much things in life
this is exactly why I'm never gonna go cave exploring
Im experiencing Claustrophobia, just watching this. 😮
Amazing video sir
Loved the comment about the metric system, I had to reread it just to make sure I read it correctly.
What do we learn about that? Don't go into caves.
That editing!!!!
Takes a special type of person to go spelunking.
the rain wasnt stoping lmao
These videos go hard at 11:30 at night
8:09 how did we get an account of what happened in the cave if everyone died
Literally what I was thinking but I didnt question it lollll 😂
I never worry about the dangers in those caves.....mainly because I'd never enter one of them!
I love that you’re using pictures of Cillian
1:08 Holy crap I didn’t catch on to that being PAD for a second. I thought it was just a clip of the TH-camr who’s clip we were about to watch. Until I notice his mouth was syncing up. 😆😂🤣 This is the first time I’m seeing PAD’s face. I can say......... His voice and face definitely match what I would have expected. 👍🏻
9:51 when i see my homies
For the disaster Turned Carnival story my mind went staight to "if he cuts off his foot he could get pulled out of the place.
Wow good going David
I love pad’s new……wait pads …..PADS?!??
The section "Disaster turned carnival" was potrayed in Billy Wilder's film Ace in the Hole (1951).
31:04 is that johny sins
Pixels after dark never fails to rail me from behind
Bushman’s Hole must have a lot of tourism from him lmao
Woah woah what you mean by that?
@@shinkser he never fails to fuck me from behind ♥️
I just noticed, The Internet Historian deleted his video about the third case
Well he is an ableist so he was never very bright, that case was important
@@gem_b7798 I too hate the ables
@@gem_b7798 What did he say that was ableist?
20:24 my favorite country "McDonalds Land"
My brother screamed “GYAT” when pixels after dark appeared on the screen
this is insane
"Spoilers, he died" is the message written
My mother in law explored the nutty putty cave when she was in her late teens/early twenties
"Never let pride get the best of you " _Nutty Putty cave
BEWARE OF ZOMBIES 27:19
19:40 Does that looks like FOOD and WATER.
At Halloween event I went to Jacobs Well A popular swimming located that is Haunted after 12 people died in the underwater cave system
Always a pleasure having to pause this thrilling video to convert feet to meters 😝
yeah, feet, pounds, miles, yards
the imperial system is so bad that even drug peddlers resort to kilos and grams
By order of the peaky fokin' blinders
but bro the end Jack edwards Jones bro i feel SO bad and sad for him he was so close
18:50 didn't he already break the lamp at this point
Don't mind me, I'll just be here screaming.
damm i felt that last one
21:39 bro fucking used the "no way" guy
I don’t understand, how were they able to see John’s face but not manage to get him unstuck? Like, if they were face to face wouldn’t that mean he was lifted out of the hole enough to be where they are?
From my understanding he got pulled up a little bit and was able to turn around but before he got out completely the string breaks and he fell back down there
18:36 WHAT DOES THAT SAY
12:38 i bro did not just use that video 💀💀💀💀
A carnival was set up to provide liquor and entertainment.. what in the actual fuck.. I've never heard anything more "American" in my life 🤦♀️ and on that note maybe I'm actually not stoned ENOUGH for this😂
OMG! I hate caves went twice in my life last one was 2011 in Mexico never again.
If i cant walk upright or minimum crouch then its a no its just to risky people are crazy sometimes but i guess its a passion.
At what point do we all just like, agree to not go in caves
If i ever die cave diving dont try to rescue my body. Im already dead. No sense in someone else dying to save me.
...the casual dropping of a happy meal and coke took me tf out..😂 I'm too stoned for this shit 😑
Yeah lol that was funny as hell. I was like oh my god a fucking happy meal. Thats not enough food there 😂
This is why I don't do caves or sucba diving
“Died doing what he loved most” yeah I’m sure he loved suffering from starvation, dehydration and hypothermia.
That's not what he meant
Caving was what he loved most!
Yeah seems like they have a very boring life.
You must be fun at parties
Judging by the thumb nail... I'm gonna assume this guy got beat up in the cave since his shirt is not dirty.
27:14 beware of zombies
what i got here is: do not get into caves. Don't die in clautrophobia. Be happy
why was bro playing inspiring music
I can't believe they set up a fucking carnival while some dude was probably breathing his last less than a mile away,
never to see his family or friends again
He said he would recover the body for the fam and he did
Oi at 31:10 that’s not a medical professional 🤨
Is pixel from New York?
I thought for a sec they would survive, sadly they didn't.
WHY GO IN A CAVE, IN A SMALL TUNNEL , WITH A CAMERA IN YOUR HAND MAKING IT HARDER
these guys bro i am mad and i am scared
