No wetsuits, using pool toys as flotation, wearing tennis shoes, you put yourselves at grave risk.Glad you survived. I've been caving since the 70's. Equipment matters and of course always check the weather forecast before entering.
This isn't the first time this has happened to them. Don't think they care much tbh, won't be surprised if something bad happens at some point.
They could so quickly had gotten hyperthermic if they had got stuck for long enough. This is so amateur.

wdym they are ?@@NicCageForPresident2024
I left a comment months ago pointing out this exact danger they almost faced in a previous cave and even I as a non-caver can recognize the warning signs they ignored. Really thought they were smarter than this
That cave was a giant deathtrap, glad y'all made it out safe!
Especially since it looks like they took a few kids in there with them.

Reminds me of Nutty putty cave.
Oh man you're fate is sealed bro. You're having so much fun, so I know you won't stop. Even when the signs are clearly leading to death you won't stop. God bless you bro.
They could just be better prepared
it’s sad
Give the man his 💐 before the inevitable. At this point its like if they wouldn't want it any other way is it bravery or stupidity? Maybe both? Hope it's worth it 😢
@@P.viridis Yeah, by not bringing effing kids into a cave like this!
Tbh Their silly comments throughout really shows how much they are paying attention to what really matters. and its obvious in this one that they didnt prepare properly
@2:56 Who the fuck brings their young daughter caving, especially in water? Totally negligent
yeah first time i saw them bring a kid.... and at night... if the adults want to mess around and possibly find out go ahead leave the kid at home..
The kid wasn't old enough to swim in the water and had to be carried. Isn't that enough evidence for these bozos to let her go home and watch cartoons
I think the kid was just there at the start. They used floaties to get there. They prob went back and didn’t go further in
@@shawnfoogle920you do know the young girl is 12 years old and has a channel with her dad!
Where was the kid
For the love of God don't bring kids.
That was my thought, what happened to the kids??
@@Dramatic9090The kids are fine, you can see them outside of the cave at the end.
@@conan2650 I've looked multiple times and can't see those kids at the end.
There in the background at 19:27.
let the children go explore and have fun, it was a far better learning experience, then any school lesson you can get.
It’s actually really scary just how casual you were about the danger you were just in especially given there was a child with you. Think about this, if you just happened to stay in the furthest or deepest part for ten or twenty minutes longer, that passage would have been impassable or without knowing its length, certainly not without going through it underwater. That was really close and in my view, irresponsible.
i would report this video to the police and ask them and child protection workers to do something about it if i was in this country where they are living
@@CamelliaFlingert Do you think reporting it would actually do anything? Im worried too for the kids
@@annabellef8473 Idk, i'm not living there so i don't know if law and police of this country same bad as mine (Russia)
#Karen on deck ‼️ Yea it was risky but it wasn’t you; #Burn more #Books Live your own #Life not everyone else’s
😂😂you people are ridiculous, get outside some time
“Bro the path is flooding”
“What do you mean it’s flooding?”
“Bro the path we came from is filling with rain water almost to the ceiling”
“What does that mean?”
I think you’re a bit too confident in a large group of people. I love your videos and support your channel but again with this video, I’m wishing you’d make the best decisions for everyone involved and not put yourself in this much immediate danger. Take care. Please. Especially when there is a child involved. IMO, you should only go in a river cave if the forecast is dry and has been/will be for days. Weather is unpredictable. Err on the side of caution. You will thank yourself later. ❤
for real. i love their videos but recklessness like this is gonna get them killed one of these days
@@saraschneider5797 sadly I agree. I worry about them but I admire their bravery.
@@ElissaBlankenship.
That’s not bravery. Bravery is running into a burning building to save lives. He’s just putting his life at risk for nothing.
I agree. Edward is crazy. Sometimes he thinks he's immortal. Have you seen that video of them going up that radio tower?
@@stevemiller4885 The voice of someone who has never had to recover the body of a dead child, or face their parents with the news.
No-one here is saying that they shouldn't explore caves or have fun, but exercising a little caution in a situation like this never hurts.
If someone does die on one of these adventures, where will your bravado be? At least they will get loads of views!
I swear at about 13:16 the kid asks "can we go back now" and no one replies to him. I can not believe they were in this cave like this... it gives me anxiety as it is. But this here is just a death trap. The signs they had to turn around were all over.
The fact that everyone here was fine bringing a child with them….to something extreme as caving. Especially when no one properly researched the weather? (Or seemingly anyway. But I think it would be even worse if they researched the weather and decided to go anyway)
They are needlessly putting this child’s life in danger and to me that is extremely irresponsible parenting. I understand, adults are going to do what adults want, make the decisions and choices they want to. But bringing a kid into this. Not okay.
It's blowing my mind that they would bring this kid along on this trip and on top of bringing her take her so deep into the cave. I mean if you want to be stupid as adult then whatever I guess but don't put the child's life at risk
Hehe yeeeeah bro’! Bro-skiee,
Yeeee! Shakabrah!
The ego tripping here and overconfidence is what will eventually get you and your team into a situation you can't get out of
And taking a child with them ):
Tell me you're in your 20's without telling me you're in you're 20's... Guys, you need to take weather/precipitation seriously. You don't understand how lucky you just got.
let people live it’s always old farts trying to ruin the fun for others just because they can’t have fun anymore
@@PEPPACHICKENyou need to respect your elders they got to that age for a reason and it's not by being carless..you can live your life but not be dumb
@@heyitsalannaluvprobably one of the dumbest takes imaginable.
@@PEPPACHICKENAnd let young people die for their stupid mistakes? Nah. Let people live, that's the point. Prevent people from dying over stupid stuff.
They need to think about the rain too
If y'all keep doing this, you're going to find exactly what you're looking for, and it's not above the ground.
Im no caver but as someone who has had a near death experience the adrenaline rush you get I feel forever changes your brain chemistry and you do seek more whatever the cost to feel that again.
yeah, its around 6ft deep
@@Thorfinn_editZ1 it's far deeper for cavers

Nothing better than watching this in a warm bed before i fall asleep 😊
It’s sometimes hard to tell what is edited for production value for clicks/subs/revenue…….but I’m of the opinion he was legitimately at risk. While they mentioned they’d been in there earlier, it isn’t in the video, so it’s hard to compare the water conditions earlier. With only a few inches of airspace and nearly sumped, he decides to hastily exit, with only his nostrils above water until he finally submerges in one fell swoop and narrowly misses connecting his head to the ceiling. But the trend in this trip continues as it has in the other installments regarding safety, attire and decision-making……and that there doesn’t seem to be any real leadership during the trip…..the kind that establishes safety boundaries in proper attire and moving underground. The chain of decisions leading up to certain risky behaviors are easily dismissed because more disastrous consequences have been averted so far. It seems to be every man/girl for themselves. Not to mention being knowledgeable about the weather enough to know if there’s a chance of the kind of rain that will put your life at risk in a known wet cave where the decision is made to go to those wettest parts. As much as they are submerged, the could stand to be wetsuited (it looks like the girl might be). A simple injury could render an immobilized, wet group member hypothermic in short order. At 2:02, one of the group falls while simply navigating a very shallow stream passage and is visibly injured (though he is able to continue). The shoes he has on appear to be athletic shoes, not sturdy boots with lug soles. At best, they could be hybrids of some type. Then at 3:12, he dares Edward asking if he wants to race. Others appear to have similar shoes. Edward does have on adequate footwear. At 4:32, another one announces “a slide.” The route taken was a curved chute to the right, and maybe he’d done this before. But there is also an exposed cliff for another 20 feet or so to the water to the left. And Edward jumps for what looks to be 6 or 8 feet, and nearly gets injured (another has to ask if he’s alright at 8:43). This is the first video where they recorded actual intentional (8:16) and unintentional (11:51, where you can see a ceiling formation fall in front of his head at the bottom right) speleothem destruction. They also continue to trust unknown rope with their weight (10:08) frequently. Just get everyone on the same page for attire and moving underground safely and abide by that as a group. Even for recreational stuff like this, a conscientious trip leader could mean the difference between “sending it” and getting “sent” when nature ups the ante.
Watch the rest of his videos. You'll see even more. He has one where he went down in a wet cave during a rain storm and almost punched his ticket. I think they ham it up a for views but they are still doing alot of unsafe activities.
And if their incompetence causes a disaster some poor people will be called to rescue idiots with no regard for their own safety.
They are definitely documenting the leadup to their deaths. They just don't realize it.
The fact they bring a kid along on this is insane
Wow man you seem to have put a lot of effort into your comment I respect that. I didn’t read it all because I have ADD but I can respect the effort
bro this is crazy. its sad to think that this is how others have perished... fatigued and stuck in some muddy rocks and water :( RIP. Also that you may potentially end up this way, too. Thanks for the video. Stay safe man!
You guys were so close to being on a Dive Talk or Mr. Ballen video. Stay safe out there!
It easily could be still 😂
Dive Talk probably will make a video on it. I have a feeling they will say it was silly, rightfully.
I went looking for a comment like this. Definitely don't want these guys to end up on Mr. Ballen.
@@avereth Watched their follow up they are a statistic waiting to happen.
😂😂😂
Gonna die chasing the algorithm. At this rate it is inevitable.
That was a close call. Glad everyone is safe. Zero clue why there is a toddler in there. Wow.

The flooding part was fake af. He said the GoPro filled up with water like it's not waterproof. Then they get out and the water flow is the same as the beginning, everything is dry, and the rest of the crew is dry above the shoulders. Definitely just found a flooded offshoot to use as click bait. His hair was literally already wet from when he went through it the first time. 😆
That said, these guys are clearly amateur af and it's no wonder they don't get replies when they supposedly message bigger TH-cam channels to collab. Zero technical expedition skills on display here.
@@awkwardautistic barely even got memories, ts a baby ain't no way they really thought it was smart to bring a young kid caving, not only that, but into water-caving?! Like bro the mindset they will give those kids is going to be horrible, they chase deadly activities, and kids should not find no fun in that, until they truly know the risk, horrible parent(s) to even put their kid in that situation
@@thedislikecounter9095 you can have fun with small kids... I've taken my kids all over the place. But you have to be smart about it... some things are just too risky.

how young is that kid? CPS should be notified.
Was looking for this one comment. Like right? Dudes goes into the tightest places with water and has gotten away. Praying for the streak to keep goin stay safe!

I get the rush, but hello nah, I'd rather get bit my my cane corsos. 😅
You guys are really experienced, please don't die doing something extremely careless.
Yeah we gotta be more careful I just broke my foot jumping across ledges. Will be out of the caves for a little while as it heals -James

@@ActionAdventureTwinsget well man!! Love what yall do but definitely tread lightly!
dumbass @@ActionAdventureTwins
As soon as I seen the cupped out floor(turbulent fast moving water) at the beginning and the water lines on the walls… I knew while it was raining outside that cave was the worst place to be.
CPS would love this video
I really get such a chilling feeling everytime he’s like “want me to just send it” without any second thought. I hope I don’t end up seeing a horrible title about your final time “sending it”
They can die down there! Poor parenting. Sad sad!!
So glad everyone is safe, cave looked like a death trap from the entrance
Some people are sure willing to risk your life to be entertained. I would rather see you in many future videos about beautiful caves than in a few videos about risking your lives and you no longer being here.
And, as others have said, bringing a little kid in there is insane.
The little kid has a shit ton of experience and is the likeliest, being smallest, to get out should shit hit the fan.
@@AlexVardr This means a child has been taken into a dangerous environment many times, originally with no experience. If there's a flash flood, no one's coming out. If there's a situation where the child is the only survivor, then there's the trauma from being in that situation. Kids aren't little adults, their brains are still developing and can be deeply scarred by trauma.
@@stlmopoet You risk your kid's life every time you go on the road to drive somewhere, at least the kid will have interesting memories. But these guys went into a cave that could flood, while it was raining- nobody should have went in. Caving by itself isn't dangerous if you follow the rules and there's no reason a kid can't do it as long as an adult is with them to make sure the rules are followed.
@@tylerchambers6246children can't consent to this level of danger. Comparing this to being in a car is ridiculous.
Did i see a fkn little kid at 2:58 seems really risky to bring them in a cave like this. don't know what they where thinking.
Exactly
That kid and her dad are badass cavers and she seems pretty fearless. She's willingly exploring places 99.9% of people won't go and looks to be enjoying the hell out if it. Leave it alone.
@@smileyrva well at face value it still looks risky. I mean if anything goes wrong with either the kid or anyone else it can mayhem. Heck I didn't know the context as much as what you seem to know but I still stand with what I said.
Two kids. The little girl is seen being reckless in every single video she shows up in lol
@@smileyrvahey, 🤘, that kids fearless and knows what she is doing. If your going to teach them, teach them young. But she seems well taught already.
The girl who always travels ahead of you guys .not paying attention to anything just going and going.... I was sceptical about and about their channel.. but I strongly disagree with taking a 3year old in ice cold water to explore... not able to keep up .. 4:59 I hope this comment finds that channel 4:59
Yeah they seem to love breaking every rule, one day I'm going to realize I haven't seen a video of theirs for a while, go a do research and find out they got themselves perma-banned from life. Feels like a case of when, not if.
It's one thing for them to risk themselves but risking kids is just not cool.
Abusive and tragic
Yeah, I try not to judge but seeing the toddler-aged kid at 2:55 was kind of disturbing, even disregarding the accumulating rainwater. The teenage girl is one thing, she's free to choose her hobbies, but bringing a toddler underground seems way too dangerous. I'm not sure I'd say it's abusive, but it's definitely taking risks that I would argue are not worthwhile. Definitely negligent
@@entropybear5847 im not sure you can get perma-banned from caves. Its not like they bought tickets
Ok, I've been seeing all of these "kid" comments, but I don't see any "toddler" or anyone young anywhere around 2:55. Can you please give me an exact timestamp?@@Rynthion I see at 13:30 there is a kid. But there just isn't any "toddler" at your timestamp of 2:55. What am I missing, thanks.
Man that water filled that passage up fast, I was literally watching it rise. You had seconds before you were camping out till it drained out. That was a close one
Indeed it was, I love your channel btw great content keep going you will blow up ! Be safe much love ❤
@@LeaveNoTraceehey thanks
Someone said in your comments that you guys are pushing yourselves too hard and are scared you may not return, ive been following ever since I asked you guys on facebook if you had a youtube, and im starting to agree
Like i said when i messaged you guys, stay safe down there as it can turn from fun and games to near death in seconds without warning
They're really actually starting to scare me too, especially with the little involved 😢 I was nervous at first but its getting down right real life horror movie
@@carleewalton9760 yeah id hate to see them become another youtube caving horror story :(
Dude gets dopamine from almost drowning, whole new level xD
When i was a young teenager, my science class went speilunking. It was incredible, but i got too confident in my zeal. I got wedged really really snug, & had to relax my muscles i didnt know i even had to reshape my torso to slip & wiggle free. I had a panic attack while stuck that really affects me to this day. So watching this video i had a mirroring visceral primal fear response, so thanks for sharing as it helps me to process a rough incident from childhood.
When you look at the coloration of the walls and see signs of standing water ABOVE your head, you might wanna think again.
Id be like hell no from the entrance
Why are they not wearing wetsuits? If something goes wrong and they have to spent some extra time in the cave they probably will die from hypothermia before rescue arrives. The lack of safety is pretty concerning
I feel bad for all the salamanders and frogs that will suffocate when they have the seal off the cave you're gonna die in
Lol
Holy shit.
Thought I was tripping hearing kids voices in the video. Tf are you doing? Those kids need to be taken away from whichever idiotic parents allowed them in there. Absolute disregard for their lives.
She's 19 you goof, she's just short
I'm the kid, I have highlander syndrome. So now your making fun of special needs people, wow. I hope you feel better
@@funfinding4two955 why are you talking in third person?
Also if you have a rare condition that makes you look and sound like a child, it's not "making fun" when people think you're a child.
Shocked you all are still alive.
Guys I think this might be a caving video
Really
Really
Nah that's crazy!
I thought I was watching a drifting competition.
I really need glasses.
You don’t say. 😮
Thank God you guys all got out when you did. I can not even say how much of a legend your buddy is that ran his plan and then just waited for all of you. 10 or 20 minutes more, maybe a lot less than that even, and he would have been having to call a rescue in there, maybe even a body recovery. There was a lot of area in there that seemed to have good air flow and possible other entrances. Mos likely there were lots of places you could have safely gotten to and remained above the water and in fresh air, but who knows what might get sealed and cut off from fresh air as the water rose. I believe that as soon as I felt that the water was cold, I would have called it and gotten out of there though. Hypothermia could have easily taken you all out as well. That system looked amazing and it is definitely not for just any casual that does not know what they are doing or is alone, but it is wild just how close you all came to an extremely serious emergency or someone not getting to go home. Not exactly how you want to learn those kinds of lessons, but at least you all learned them and can teach others before they have to find out the hard way. Out of curiosity, are any of you divers or have any of the equipment and training for underwater exploration? They are very different disciplines, but I am just curious since I have seen a few vids of yours where the cave systems had wet sections.
Yeah we got underwater episodes
Nah you could probably just stay in there over-night until the water goes down..
@@liamc1102 first, the water was cold meaning hypothermia, and if they could only get to an air pocket Instead of a chamber then hypoxia. Many large caves have to be signed into meaning if you don't sign out by a certain amount of time then they automatically call in a rescue. Maybe they might have gotten lucky and survived the night, but what is a big maybe and that should NEVER be considered as an option. You always want to get out and they barely did. These guys appear to be very good at what they do and the best in the world at things like this and cave diving have died in the past, safety has to be the absolute highest priority and they were reminded of that on this occasion. I will guarantee that if you asked any of them they would tell you something very similar if not the same thing altogether in their own words. You just can not have that kind of blasé attitude about safety with these types of activities. These guys clearly know how to prepare and be safe, and you can tell from watching that they know perfectly well how close it was. I was simply acknowledging the facts of the situation as could be seen. Wild things can happen to anybody, and talking about talking about it honestly is a good way to help others become aware of things to watch out for and/or be prepared and trained to deal with.
Damn that looks scary af, and you managed to continue filming for as long as you could… what a legend.
I really like your content but sad to see you keep pushing your luck more and more with so many safety rules neglected... how long will it be before any of this negligence costs you dearly?
That’s why we all watch

No adventure is worth dying in a cave
Oh my. Been there, done that. Almost got trapped in a New York cave when the water rose unexpectedly. It was terrifying. Our rule of thumb with kids caving was they had to be able to hold their own. I started caving when I was seven, but I was fit and could do most things the adults did, other than vertical. That came later when I was twelve. Glad you got out okay, Edward. Sorry about your go pro and light, but they’re replaceable. You’re not, dude. Cave on!
Where abouts did you used to go caving?
@@defunctuserchanneldont enter a cave when its raining.
Caves in New York? Isn't that called a subway? 😂
Where in Ny and what cave ?
I’m a Ny caver/mapper/digger here curious about where as most the caves up here don’t flash flood unless you’re in BZ or something along those lines
The cave was Onesquethaw Cave nr. Clarksville, NY. We were past the barnyard and nearly got caught on the other side of the duck under just beyond, when the entrance flooded. We swam out and had to stay high in the turbines at the entrance. I’ve never been more frightened in a cave.

Oh my God that’s pretty terrifying.
I’m very relieved that all of you guys made out safe and sound ❤
Whoever you're with sounds fun as hell
I feel like caving is as close as you can get to dungeon crawling in real life. You don't get to fight monsters or find ancient treasures and magic weapons, but you at least get to explore a cool area and admire the geology.
For real!! Part of why I love these guys' videos. That feeling of exploration is tempting even me to try out caving lol
@@maxwelldavidson4157 I've been in a couple caves. It's a fun time. I'm on the super casual side though. No equipment, don't do squeezes, and don't care for wet socks for hours on end if I can help it.
Plenty of D&D dungeons I ran were inspired by caves I've been to. One was very much inspired by a scenario like this - it started raining outside, and the group was at the bottom of a cavern having to find their way back up as the cave fills up with water
Love it! We need to get back down somewhere soon.
Damn right
OMGOSH 😮 I was holding my breath! Glad y’all are ok. No more caves in the rain!!❤
Me toooooo 😮😢
My biggest fear happened! I always thought this could happen. Stay safe guys! Thanks from Brazil!
have you, your brother, and your friends defined limits for yourself? if so, would you please share what those personal limitations and boundaries are? are you scared of anything or have preventative measures to avoid putting yourself in harms way? would you consider this sport a form of self induced adrenaline addiction? i’m so curious how people are primed to live life like this since i could never imagine being in them. thanks for sharing your caving experiences!
Super fucked up bringing kids in there.
Cry more
@@ActionAdventureTwins I’m not gonna be the one crying if it goes bad down there.
@jackv3713 sorry dude, people just calling the dads who bring their kids along bad parents just really irked me. We don't think they are bad parents in the least bit
@@ActionAdventureTwins a few days removed I can say that I probably overreacted a bit. But it comes from a place of concern. Tbh I’m guessing you take a lot of extra precautions w them, but you’ve also gotta admit the way your videos are presented highlights the risk of caving, and hearing a little kids voice in the background can be concerning since they don’t really understand the consequences of what they are agreeing to do. For all I know that system is known to be safe if it rains outside, but it seemed like you guys weren’t sure and I thought that was irresponsible. Idk man I enjoy your content I just get worried when kids get brought along on adventures where death is a realistic potential outcome - ocean gate sun comes to mind how the son was scared but wanted to connect with his dad doing something he loved. Anyways, apologies for coming off as a dick, and stay safe especially with the little ones.
@jackv3713 no worries man! We will definitely try and up the safety in our trips if we are caving with people who aren't very familiar with the places or are younger
That cave looked so fun though! Like a waterpark. Glad you guys made it out safely!
Anyone ever try hiring you guys to be rescue workers? You boys have nerves of steel. When you can laugh in the face of danger then you’ve got guts.
Shoot glad we made it out! That cave was the definition of fun
We almost didn't make it man, that was a close one.
@@funfinding4two955 Why am I reading that there was a "toddler" in the cave? I didn't see one. I saw Hannah , who is 12, but that was all ! People are saying there were "2 kids in there". Glad y'all are OK !
@saffycatamos people are crazy. Cavern reaper did bring his daughter who has also been in caves also to show her the entrance because she wanted to come with. So he showed her, then they left and waited for us to get out. That's why Cole aka cavern reaper wasn't in the rest of the video, and I don't think to many people say much about Hannah anymore, I think they have come to realize she's the real deal and can handle herself pretty well.
I’m surprised no one has called CPS. Just because you’ve spent a lot of time doing something, doesn’t mean you’re “experienced” in the sense of being knowledgeable - I live in NH where “experienced” hikers die all the time. People with thousands of trail miles die bc you can’t get away with the same mistakes that might not be a big deal elsewhere. Like running shoes or cotton clothing.
Skiing is a great example of the difference between, let’s call it “ability” and knowledgeable experience: I have a friend who is an expert skier, and I mean expert. S&S couloir, that kind of thing. Lots of time in the backcountry. But, he has zero technical avalanche knowledge. He might carry a beacon, probe, and shovel but god knows the last time he practiced, if he ever has. And he definitely doesn’t know how to perform stability tests. If “CTM15 down 32, SP” doesn’t mean anything to you, you don’t really have true “experience” in avalanche terrain, I don’t care if you beat Body Miller!
Yeah, I'm allergic to drownding, so no way would I set tube in there! Glad y'all made it out safely.
That seemed only a few minutes away from becoming a MrBallen video. 💀💀💀
Not the first time they have been a few minutes away from becoming a MrBallen video. Give it a like 2 or 3 years.
That's kinda mean. I don't know if you intended so but you almost seem like if you want something to happen to them just leave them be@@McFwoupson
@@user-by9ks6nc9t nah I don't want it to happen to them but I can't lie that I won't be surprised if it does. Their lack of regard for safety is astonishing.
Just wish them luck I'd say they are reading these comments and I do think they would be more cautious. @@McFwoupson
@@user-by9ks6nc9t hopefully. On the other video where one of them entered a flooding cave with like a few inches of air space, the only comment they responded interacted with (pinned and gave it a heart) was from another youtuber saying it's fine and that they enter flooding caves all the time lol. But ye hopefully they do and learned from this experience.
18:38 FYI. he could just swim the 4 meters, but he figured this looks more dramatic to his viewers..
Love the consistency keep posting till you find something crazy
I don't like that you bring this little girl there. She way to young to be doing these dangerous caving things 😲
Yeah,? Is she? Age equals maturity? She must have 100s of videos online of caving because she's inexperienced and it's to dangerous, o wait, thats me, not every kid is raised to your standards, some are adventurous and strong.
@@funfinding4two955 Dawg youre gonna die
@@funfinding4two955 Don’t have kids
@funfinding4two955 Can't wait to see your kids' name in a headline with that attitude.
@@funfinding4two955goofy🤡🤡
Second time this has happened during Fall/Winter for you guys. I would be more cautious next time.
Stand on my head ! I love the teamwork and heart they have.
Sometimes you just gotta offer a hand.....or head, lol
Y'all are going to get one of you killed.
Loving these Thursday night uploads!
....it's Wednesday LOL
@@Anthro777 😅
@@Anthro777Thursday for some 👍👌
never underestimate the power of nature... you should always be checking weather before caving, and getting reliable info from people who have caved there before, to learn likeliness of flooding etc, based on weather and time of year etc
They kinda like to challenge nature as their luck has got them out of very deadly situations as this, but they keep pushing it with dumb and costly mistakes that can take their or their friend's lives, water caving is much much more dangerous compared to regular caving, but these guys seem to love water caves cause of the adrenaline it gives them when they come face to face with a deadly factor
how much are those pants with the baggy area in the groin? ive started climbing recently and keep splitting the groin area in my pants (trousers) - im wondering if there is any cheap way of getting something better.. or if they are always really expensive for specialist climbing / parkour / caving clothing?
This was too scary. Glad you're out safely.
Almost ended up on Mr Ballens list. Didn't you check the wheather forecast?
I loved the video and am glad to see ya'll made it out safely. I love all your videos, it's really fascinating! However, I do not want anything happening to you so since I care about you I want you to be as safe as possible so you can make a lot more videos for me. 😁 Thank you! lol
Super badass cave great job guys!! Dragon egg huh?!? Peace and much love to y'all all be safe out there!! 🥰😁✌️❤️💯🙏
9:00 its cool to see things living so far deep inside of caves. I wonder if they could be new species. Or for how long they might have been isolated for. Where I live we don't really have caves unfortunately. would love to get into exploring
Lemme break it down for ya. That small fish came in there by mistake. For fish species to survive all the way deep inside a cave in complete isolation is impossible because they wont be having any source of sunlight or food. That small fish got inside with the incoming water from the surface. In deep caves you will generally find small salamanders as they can live without food for longer period of time
Another daily dose of people with death wish. God, it's so lame to be person with rational sense of fear, I never ending up in such interesting situations! But thankfully there is youtube.
This channel is super cool. No ads no intros or outro just simple. Guys have good cameras n lights. No too much commentary and the editing is good. Either they grew up rich but humble or they worked their ass off for what they have. Good work guys
God forbid these women went in there alone, without the direction of a biological male
@@AndyKolawhat
@@AndyKolaWho pissed you off today? Need to talk about it?
@@AndyKolaplot twist unknown to you, that kid showed them the way through a cave in a previous video she was familiar with.
Grew up rich...definitely no. Hard workers... definitely yes!
This channel is like watching a reeeeeeally long snuff film. You know eventually it will be called "adventure dude".
The extent you guys go to to show us these amazing caves is crazy lol thanks for a awesome trip❤
Bringing a child with you is idiotic. The poor child doesn't see the dangers like an adult does.
