10 days underground - extreme cave exploration 

i can wait to do this

I love how all of us that are afraid of caves end up watching these videos

i can’t wait to wait to do this

I can’t wait to do this... in the next Minecraft update

@@EZMONKEY04 hi I’m a crocodile if you think getting stuck in a cave is bad just wait ‘til I attack you

In the snow. Up hill Both ways 🤣😂😃

Jake King I thought that was a Mexican thing but apparently all grandparents like to lie about how they got to school

Jake King xaxaxa

Don Johnson in the scorching sun

No shoes!!!!😃😁😂

Thats not a bad comment. Not bad at all. Lol pretty funny.

Dude I see you commenting on so many cave related videos hahaha

Oh damn what if that cave is the home for giant ants that came from a million years ago

I need aluminum. Urgently... for my research. Really! Just for my research. And nothing else. Nothing!

HAHAHAH BROO WTF I SAW UR COMMENT ON THE OTHER POST SAYING WHAT IF THEY GOT STUCK AND SOMEONE STARTED EATING THE HALF OF THEM THATS STUCK IN CAVE .LOL wtf is wrong w ur mind u need Jesus

100 Octrillion.

@Gold Rose I would pay good money to do this

It’s the only kind of videos I get a ohhhhh nah no way never ever they actually put you on edge but I love to watch them lol

Leamen Cone people do it for a rush and your wouldn’t even do it for £1million PUSSIO

Shut up you’re right. I wouldnt

That's like option C for me. If A and B dont work I'm outa here

They forgot the spraypaint and discoball

You're only part-correct. Cave explorers who know they are going where nobody else knows where to start searching take a pistol and a pint of the best bourbon. I would not share a drop. I won't swap for Southern Comfort, either.

Not in Canada you won’t be carry nothing expect a phone so you can wait on the cops or whatever

@@Mikefantasia22 i would bring soap and Vaseline if I get stuck

Hahaha

minecraft sucks I was thinking the same lol

Honestly 😂😂 let’s call it “ the depths”

Fax

It scared me too lol

same

Same😂

It is entrance to shit cave

thats where the shit goes in all outhouses

Me too 😂😂

Don’t worry- they have beach caves too! 🥳

Beaches suck, I’m far more at home in a cave.

:D Underrated comment!

I'm more of a dirty old parking lot filled with empty syringes beside an abandoned motel kinda guy.

@@jemand8462 Lol, came here to say this.

It's very peaceful. Just remember to set the alarm for waking up, and make sure your watch has a way of showing a full 24-hr cycle (differentiate between am and pm), because you'll lose track otherwise.

You mean crawling xD

Remember to stack stones between you and an adjacent unexplored abyss. Before sleeping on a ledge. So any sleep turnover won't initiate a fatal plunge. See RU-vid for pitfalls.

Why can't you imagine it?

@Diocletian sounds fun actually, like going to the depths of hell

Joseph Parrish at lest I'd die in the open air

@@BigMac014 but you'd stay there mummified for possibly the rest of time.

Christopher Nieman yeah, then other climbers can use your mummified body as a waypoint marker to gauge how far they are from the summit.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vclEF4MN3Z0.html i know most of yall aint paying much attention to this comment section anymore but this video is of some dude who nesr died on everest

same

Thank you sir! As always, practice makes perfect, and the benefits of a balanced diet are there for all to see ;-)

Huh huh....poop

Is it art ? Try it on home walls and video it for RU-vid. You could be the next poster child for treating homemakers.

Poop = funny 😛

I just bursted out laughing so hard 😂 caus ei can relate

Your grandfather was a brave man, with the twin risks of collapse and explosion that are uniquely high in coal mines. I would not go in there. Caving as a hobby is different; and it is one of the very few remaining places on earth where you actually have to go there, to find out what's around the next corner. No satellite, no drone, no nothing... and that is part of the attraction.

NUSKish understood. Stay safe!

@@NUSKish I have a question... There was a thriller/monster movie that came out several years ago called "The Cave"(I think). In the movie they used a hand held radar/mapping gun. How close is science to creating something close to it that would actually work? I am just really curious if it's even possible or beneficial. Thanks. Truly enjoyed the video. You got big brass balls to do something like this for a hobbie.

Science is there NOW, if you have money and the backing. blogs.esa.int/caves/2018/03/13/the-bowels-of-earth-in-3d/

The floating, autonomous mapping ball that communicates through walls, that they had in Prometheus, is still a little ways off :-)

Exploring new passages is a privilege. We do take the appropriate precautions to ensure we come out again - leaving marks, put rigging into place to ensure we can climb back up a drop, etc. As for getting stuck... you learn your limits by carefully pushing them.

Mofo Jackson aint that the truth!

We have bone DNA from their cave grave burials. They were not people. They did mate with our species. To learn if reader is not 100% human obtain a paid DNA analysis. 2019 color and racial features have no merit in DNA analysis.

Damn reptilian enitys in the caves having sex with humans. Just like mario themes

NUSKish *fookin* hell m8 that's deadly 🥶 just watching these guys crawl in those tight ass pockets of space is bone chillin 😨

Read Norbert Casteret's "Ten Years Under the Earth" to really get this persepctive. I myself started 30 years ago with 1-watt lightbulbs, where your peripheral vision would have nothing to work with. The difference to modern LED lighting is stunning.

Curiosity 🤤

I am tortured by the thought that I'll never have the time, the money, the equipment or friends to participate in something like this.

vacation. With you, we all got a date with dirt but not while alive.

@@mangopog9814 not me. I’m gonna be cremated and put into suppositoryz and shoved up my friends assses

@@MinoritiesRlazy lmao what

The innards of the planet are curious to me, I'd do it... Not the squeezes though.

Me too.

@R P yeah

Wait. You might be lucky enough to escape an elevator malfunction. By the roof exit hatch (its concealed). Then climb the shaft wall. Those cables are too oily. At the top the service door can be kicked open. Prying open closed doors at the next floor up is harder. To deter suicides.

Its called having a brain

Unsettling to say the least! 😖

Yeah that mechanic sucks tbh, imagine making a diamond sword

@@sofiasaldana4698 90 days in a cave, sound about right!

Brass balls. Bravo sir. Too cool

It depends on the situation what and how much equippment you bring

Hauling packs costs blood. I had zero - none - clothing change with me, to save weight. Food was adequate, the lightest possible. Personal items, none (small toothbrush + mini toothpaste only). You have to have enough batteries and a repair kit. And toilet paper. But you cut absolutely everything else to the bone.

@@NUSKish do you bring water or are you able to collect fresh water inside? Haven’t watched it all yet

@@ilikeknafs9563 Plenty of water available most of the time. A creek runs through the camp; and in fact flooded out the (very very basic) campsite that the support team were supposed to use. They had to drop their stuff and just go straight back out.

Caving if done by the guidelines is actually quite safe.

@@NUSKishHello, I have a question about the water, too. In order to drink it, do you have to boil it first, to kill possible bacteria? Do you boil big amount of it and put it into bottles to have it for later/the next day at a cooler temperature?

PS4

🤣🤣🤣

It’s mtb for me

17:56=In more ways than none.

I assume the exit is the beauty.

Have a look at my video from Castleguard Cave. Some unique pretty stuff there

Imagine going through there and you got a guy right behind you, and you gotta drop your guts, trying to hold it in..

Exactly 😃

@Lucas Miller It really depends on the cave. Above all, I have to say; if you are interested in trying out caving, do not go it alone. Going into a cave by yourself is super dangerous, hence the caveat in my earlier comment regarding "those with you." But, that's just the disclaimer I have to say before answering :). As for your body type, how flexible are you? I am just shy of 6' and make my way through the caves in my county with relative ease when wearing the proper gear. I actually lead spelunking tours of a local show cave, and my test for muscular gentlemen is to ask them to extend their arms and reach above their heads. Generally, if you can readily bring your hands together above your head when extended, you should be fully capable of the squeezes in the cave I work at, and I'd love to see you give it a shot! That being said, some of the squeezes showcased in this video were INTENSE. I would definitely qualify this cave as more expert-level, especially considering they were going into unexplored tunnels. I hope that answers your question :) .

@@user-dd4fv6qj8g you're crazy go live your dreams leave this behind its dangerous omg im scared for you

@@PrincessofthePrincesses Unfortunately I injured myself in an unrelated incident and haven't been caving a long while. So you got nothing to worry about at the moment

​@@user-dd4fv6qj8g glad your ok!

His not there, he's on a vacation in Hawaii, he says hat he waned a vacation for along time, but I know he's there because there are rumors that the ring is in Hawaii, so he's lying.

Lol

Worse. A pair of Saber-tooth Tigers. Trapped inside when their Stone Age exit collapsed.

@@toruko-ishibravo2zulu679 it's not worst considering they would have died anyway because of hunger and even if somehow they had enough food for their whole life, they would die of old age anyway

Saumy kapri no... Alive

Not entirely. We can use robots to go further

@@Methdemon i like your thinking

this took me out lmfaooo

If you can make it in, you can make it out. They would just have to pull him back and let him try going through again. You don't push so hard you get permanently stuck

I thought you meant got stuck in the way out. Well, they would need to uncork the fatass to escape 😅😂

@@mrdune5479 like John Jones right

@@snakeNP215 John Jones got stuck going into a cave, not coming back out. But I'm not saying it's impossible to get stuck, just it's less likely in the way out. You've already came through that hole once

@@snakeNP215 he got stuck trying to turn around and upside down. He wasn't actually on his way back out

Thank you! At 15:27 that's me; stunning, as you say ;-)

lmao stfu

yes

After I finish this skeleton farm I’ll be right up

Ohhh so this is the real life adaptation

Just for enderman to pick you up

You search this

Mexican Girl USA Japan France no

Among the rules of cave ethics, an important one is that this is /not/ a competitive sport (as opposed to, for instance, climbing).

the part from 00:00 to 26:14, right?

Yep

now eat

@@Adar195 ok daddy

It was certainly memorable. The support team deserve HUGE credit for braving conditions that were as bad as the worst you see here, both ways, in one single trip.

Self-rescue, if at all possible, is THE preferred option. Everything else takes days. So - stabilize, splint, duct-tape, fill up with painkillers and get out. If that is not viable, someone spends a day getting out, calls in via the Iridium, and triggers a big response.

You blast them with a 12 gauge and eat the stew

NCRC.regfox.com/2019-ncrc-spar-redmond-oregon

Easy. You call the manager, they open up the emergency door in the ceiling and bring that person to the ambulance.

@@vivvpprof lol

Vballnut2117 or, they could’ve used sonar... They use sonar when finding oil deposits in the Middle East all the time.

Harris Naseem don’t lies naseem

I used to be big into caving , when going into unexplored caves we would bring big spools of string. If you get lost just follow the string to the exit

Indeed. And I enjoy that sort of thing /even more/, since I've experienced the opposite :-)

That was poop

Not chocolate..

Mostly "colour shock" after seeing mud for so long. Oh, and a warm bath!!

A “ufologist” who can’t spell “ufologist”. Imagine that. 😂

@@davidwarren719 I'm into UFOs & ALIENS not spelling bees. What is it to you anyways.

A fair point. That cave is fairly well known to not fill up, so it's more a matter of convenience rather than survival. But drowning is one of the major causes of cave fatalities, so it has to be taken seriously.

Bring a fuggin chizel. Make it better each time. Anywayz. Why ?

Ah yes Shit

Wow sence u said it like that just around the corner time stands still I'm in not lol different strokes for different folks but to many possibilities to die in a really shitty way put stuck in cave in with drowning burning that adventure sucks

You get to know your friends, and yourself, very well on a trip like this

Rashad Dior smart man, always gotta have a backup plan

Why a 38 though why not something else

Eardrums will explode if you shot a gun in a cave ide try to find a quieter way to kill myself that would be to painful

@@ss-tz1jg with the right gun you wouldn't even be able to register the Sound you'd be dust

@@ss-tz1jg If I'm at the point where I'm going to shoot myself in the head, weather or not I can still hear is not much of a concern.

YES! In this place, the outside world hardly exists.

@@NUSKish, Been many many years since i've had the chance to even do baby caves. Hopefully find some folks to change that with sooner rather than later! Keep exploring

Theres still something interesting about exploring a natural structure humans weren't meant for. Some of those enormous drop offs and waterfalls were pretty cool.

Its cool to me. So far underground all alone creating in holes the size of your body

@@Soulos-oq7ij I'd still get nervous if my supply bag got snagged or jammed somehow in a crevice, or, worse yet, the bag stayed put and I became jammed instead.... I love the idea of exploring subterranean passages and chambers... I used to go with some friends when I was younger to explore a couple of 'wild' caves near us, but nothing as tight and confining as shown in this video! I'm quite older now, so this type of challenge and strenuous excercise is beyond my physical capabilities! Still, I love watching spelunking videos on this forum! They take me 'into' worlds that I shall never be able to see in person!

If it was between life and death and you had to make it through that cave to live,I bet you would surprise yourself and make it through.

Very rarely. It has happened to me, never while inside the cave, and never really seriously. But then, if I weren't confident of managing it I wouldn't go, and that translates to the subconscious as well (or it's the other way round). Preparation is important, mental at least as much as physical.

One of the few redeeming features of a tight cave like this, is that you actually don't need all that much light - there are no wide open spaces. Also, modern cameras have amazing sensitivity (at the cost of dynamic range unfortunately). That said, I burned about 6 AA batteries per day for personal light and cameras; as well as having another six 18650-size 3Ah lithium cells for the "film light", a 600-lumen Lupine Tesla. The AA's were Energizer Ultimate, a single-use lithium battery with about 3Ah in it, and the best I've come across. I used them to drive a USB charger, since everything today is rechargeable. On my first trip to Castleguard Cave in the Rockies in 1994 the budget was 3 D-cells per day, just for personal light. Today is better :-)

NUSKish I was wondering how many batteries you brought. Thanks. Nice work. Much respect

See above - times 10 days + a little margin. One of the reasons I use lots of disposable AA's as the power source is that it's easy to track consumption, rather than having some monster powerbank where it's much harder to know what's inside.

AD ASTRA This trip was very special due to duration and need to save weight. DIsposable AA have 50% more energy and weigh 10g less per cell. I saved 300g this way, same as two freeze-dried meals.

Thanks. It not about being fearless, it's about knowing what to fear and how to deal with it.

Eric ace Calimbahin Sorry, but i don’t... i know a family who lost a caver.... and nope the father and the wife are not happy at all and wounds are not healed... but hey, i’m very sure he had fun i guess... some people need to do that but its better if they are totally alone, so if he doesn’t give a damn about his life, he doesn’t have parents or kids to be broken after him...

Thank you sir
