We Found A Waterfall 3 Miles Underground 

no waaaayyy my name is cade thats cool

If this cave system is relatively unknown you should submit a report to the NSS so some of the members can go out there and conduct a study. Bat environments are getting absolutely decimated and cave systems like this can support the bulk of entire species of bat. Obviously it's your decision, but it could make a massive difference.

I find this fascinating and terrifying at the same time.

Watching this almost makes me want to go cave exploring but the knowledge that all it takes is a freak rainstorm outside to trap me inside and possibly die from drowning is too much.

its crazy to me that you guys can find your way back, 8 hours into the cave and you can still remember which way to go, respect

To this day I'm still amazed that y'all know how to get *out* of the these winding caves, after going deeper and deeper inside for 5hrs and more. Like there's never a moment of _"Wait a sec... did we come from this way or that way?"_ and then just come across a pile of skeletons from past cavers.

Dude, this cave was insanely cold, we need to try to climb that waterfall when the water is a tad bit less lol

Hopefully you don't wake up the dragon!!!

Do you know what would be awesome is if you guys could take really good detailed pictures of these formations that you find, and then put them in a calendar and sell it on your page. I’ve been a lot of people that like rocks and minerals would love to have some of those really unique looking formations in a big print. Anyways, it’s just an idea, love you guises channel.

Don't normally watch cave videos and I'm glad to see cave pearls and cave bacon on the one time I clicked on a cave video. I would've never known it existed. This cave was absolutely beautiful with so many cool places.

I implore you guys to find out where that bobcat got in, seems most likely there's a unknown entrance near those prints, so it would cut your total journey time to the waterfall in half. Definitely lucky those prints happened to be visible on the day you were there, they're probably washed away now making it so no one would suspect another way into the cave. Hopefully you guys remember exactly where those prints were👌

Greetings from the UK. I love your channel, this must be one of the best videos ever, thank you so much for bringing it to me. At 80 years old I think I have seen it all, but you guys prove that I have seen noting really!

Time for wetsuits! Love love these amazing caves and what it takes for you to find and film your adventure in them. Thank you so much. Nice to see more bats than normal.

"I have never seen so many bats before!" **proceeds to zoom in on a spider**

Only thing that scares me or gives me anxiety is the thought of not remembering a turn or something when I want to get back out. Thats the crazy part to me.

Old TAG caver here. I instantly recognized this cave and got excited to see an old friend. This was one of our favorite caves and my notes showed we signed the log book 4 times in the 90's. It is so excellent to see it in high definition, thank you for sharing, it seems like it was just a couple of months ago since our last trip... Hard to believe it was over 25 years ago now. You showed me parts of that system I haven't seen, thank you! That pop-up with all the elephant tracks, oh yeah. :) The only time I ever saw cave pearls. Glad to see current cavers still respecting the motto.

You guys are pretty gnarly, 10 hours underground in an ice cold water cave is no easy feat. Some amazing formations down there, especially the cave pearls. I once saw similar cave pearls in a pool of moon milk, a super white water saturated with the whitest calcite you've ever seen. Awesome video as always fellas, outstanding.

This seems like the type of cave that you go in and then the water rises and you get trapped like those kids over seas. WEATHER CHECK!!

How are the cat prints there?! Thats really cool!! I never knew you could discover so many beautiful things in a cave

This was in turns surreal, astonishing and scary. The variety of formations in that cave was incredible. I am so glad you showed us a part of the earth we would never have known existed otherwise. And very glad you made it out safely. Don't you worry about hypothermia, though? Thank you for this adventure!

what level of the backrooms is this

While I am usually sitting here cringing and with sweaty palms watching you guys in these tight areas, I am really proud to see younger generation that is so respectful. You guys are very positive, don't swear and you leave things how you found them in the caves. Minimally disturbing the environment and not taking home trinkets or destructing things. You are the kind of people that put your shopping carts back and don't go 10MPH under in the left lane. Kudos to you guys and your parents. They did well.

I went through a huge spelunking phase with my best friend. Every weekend we would find a new cave, mostly always in north Alabama/ south TN. After being in any cave for at least 3 hours, everything starts to look the same. We would mark our path with neon orange yarn. The last time I ever went into a cave, we lost where we placed the yarn when we decided to turn back. We were almost 3 miles in. My everything was wet, and i started to really be unsure. Panic is going to be at the front of your mind but it HAS to be pushed to the back of your mind. You have to find your way out. And you have to do it all without hurting yourself. Although you’re underground, there can sometimes be 50-70 ft drop offs down into jagged limestone. You break a limb, especially a leg, you’re sure to die down there. Unless your partner is very competent.

It's so crazy what unbelievable and beautiful areas are underneath our feet. Thank you both for another amazing adventure.

No no no. No thank you. I'd be scared of getting lost. Omg. You guys are so brave. It's beautiful. Thank you for getting this amazing footage and sharing with us who could never do this kind of stuff.

Just when I think you can't top a cave.. Then you find this. By far one of the coolest and certainly most unique caves I've seen y'all visit. The first half of that cave is just incredible! 😎 Wish I knew what cave this was!

Lol, "it's getting better" is a relative term ;). I'm purely a mine explorer, yours is the only cave exploring channel I watch :). That said, I think that cave would be well worth me going outside my comfort zone and exploring.

Some of the most amazing formations I've ever seen thanks for taking us along

This has nope written all over it.

Wait, what? Cat paws footprints on a cave that deep? How? That doesnt make sense hahah is that some kind of pattern formation? Because it looks so odd for being made by nature You were going into some kind of portal to another world there lmao

The power of water is insane.. I commend you guys for taking the risk to show us this hidden beauty of the world. I have unlocked a new fascination thanks to this video and will probably binge caving videos for the next several months

Thanks for doing this and filming it, because I would never attempt to do what you're doing. I guess it would be from a fear of drowning or the chance that it would collapse on me, but a heart felt thanks is appropriate.

Thanks for sharing those formations. 7:05 The "chandelier" of thin spikes over the lumpy bumps with broken bits looking like a dinosaur nest is just not a situation I could imagine on my own. Caves are cool. Wild wild flowing stone it goes it goes. And I didn't get wet.

Equal parts fascinating, wholesome, and enthralling. So many almost scripted perfections.

Lets hope the cat is friendly if you stumble across it,an angry cat on your face is no fun 😀🇬🇧🍺

The only thing stopping me from laying face down and scooting through a few inches of water under a large overhanging rock is every fiber of my entire being.

This cave is amazing, those formations would be so awesome to see IRL, do u guys travel to other states to check out caves? I love these videos, if I weren't claustrophobic I would love to check out some of these places

Anyone have thoughts on how/why a bobcat would be hanging out a few miles underground? I know they have great eyesight in the dark but surely in the pitch black of a cave they wont see anything. How would it know where to go?

This one was like an art exposition inside a cave, lol

That was definitely sketch. Splitting up was a terrible idea. 4 is the right number so that if anyone is hurt, one can stay with them while the other 2 go for help and no one is ever left alone.

It's awesome what you guys are doing, but I really hope you guys always think safety first. If that cold would have immobilized one of you, your 10 hour day, would get much, much, longer, AND you'd have to help organize rescue party. Hopefully you guys keep thermal blankets, hand/foot warmers, splints, bandages, thread and needle, etc.. there's lots of helpful stuff, I'm sure you know. My old guy senses are kicking in and hate to hear or see you guys in bad or deadly spot. Do you guys bring any sort of protection? Like a hand gun, or big blade knife? You never know who or what you'll cross in one of your adventures.

Awesome video today, sometimes I get a little bit nervous for you guys, just be careful. ❤️

What precautions do you guys take against spreading white nose to the bats that live in these caves?

how are mobs not spawning for you guys

Your videos awaken my twelve year old self. I was a climber, explorer. Thanks. Do you have any way to show how deep you are and where you are in relation to the surface? I can imagine you in a world somewhere under a shopping mall.😂

5:50 that looks human made, like cut blocks. Nature doesn't make uniform cuts like that

Thanks so much for sharing this. I'm scared of heights and closed spaces. This is the only way I can see these wonderful places.

Yeah climbing up and down loose rocks and boulders held together with wet clay is going to be a no from me dog.

Well done unfortunately I will have nightmares. I am extremely Clostrophobic. even watching you guys go through. These caves gives me the chills but it's really cool to see. Thank you for being explorers be safe.

What an adventure these videos take all of us on! Keep up the great work and stay safe!

I miss doing this in my youth. I spent alot of time in hoy cave in Kentucky. It had some impressive spots. I'd sneak friends in and explore for hours. This was back when the back entrance was still hidden. I actually dug out a few spots that lead into new areas previously unknown of. Lots of fun. You guys are living the dream.

That chandelier of soda straws made me gasp while I was watching. Those were some gorgeous formations. There's no way I could manage those crawls you guys do... just watching them from the comfort of my home gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies. So thanks for taking us along to see these wonders.

"See ya later!" - Famous last words

Like always you guys thanks for letting me tag along the water may be so cold that I am now sitting in front of a nice fire take care of yourselves be careful.

Just imagine getting all the way down and your light dies

True explorers, thank you so much for showing most of us scenes, that we would never get to see in a lifetime. Thank you so much again.

4:25 That's quite the phallic collection. 😆

Are those tracks fossils, Or at least very old and preserved animal prints? Very cool! Also those ropes at the end in the waterfall, from previous explorers or from a water well? Amazing rock formations, especially the giraffe spots 😂 I wonder what minerals cause that!

That's crazy

Oh man! So many bats! I love bats though they dont scare me at all. They are one of the most awesome creatures and have such a great benefit to nature its incredible. I rescued one once when it flew into my house and knocked itself out. I put it in a box with a little blanked so it could hang onto it upside down and gave it water in a soda bottle cap. It hung out for 3 days until it finally recovered enough to fly away. It was awesome to watch. I've been a huge bat fan ever since.

what you guys do is cool but please be careful about disturbing bats in winter. They hibernate all winter and if disturbed will awaken and die from starvation and exposure.

I would love to do this but not crawl through the super tight spaces. I’m cool with going as far as I can on 2 feet and turning back around lol. Also idk how you guys find your way back out in areas that you have to zig zag through multiple places. I’ve tried to find tv shows of people doing this because I love the way everything looks. Shockingly nothing really exists. I’ll be watching your videos.

I want to know if there is an opening you guys are unaware of for those cat prints. That is nuts! Were they fresh or fossilized or hardened like they've been there a long time?

The paw prints were AWESOME!!

How do you find these locations in the first place? It’s really awesome and creepy at the same time.

I don’t understand how people can do this. I’d turn around at the first narrow passage! 😅

Thanks for taking us on this journey with you guys by documenting it, was super cool.

We are deeper than anyone has ever gone! Oh hey is that a rope swing? Lmao

What an experience! 🤩The cave is unbelievable. Don't know how you guys can handle that cold water though. Thanks for taking us on a YT adventure.

I've translated his phrases. "I'm gonna send it" = Dangerous but not overwhelmingly so, can probably expect a snag here and there. "I might send it" = Wildly dangerous and has a very real chance of death.

You guys are true adventurers. Maybe a bit uncatious though. Thanks for sharing this gem.

Awesome adventure but you guys are nuts.

Wow. Whats the deal with the cat paw prints? How did a cat get back that far in a pitch dark cave? Are they fossilized? That is really wild! Great video!

Makes you wonder how far down in the earth water is going... and how much is there really hidden from us....

Well, I got to come along on another great adventure with you. Thanks for taking the time to film, edit and upload to you tube. I would never get to see this stuff otherwise!

Wild Cat paws!? That deep. My mind is trying to create a scenario. But how! Why. So many questions.

That seems like the deepest cave that you guys explored so far, try wearing a wet thermal suit next time, you don’t want to get hypothermia. It would be extremely difficult for medical attention to reach you at those deep depths.

I’m shocked they didn’t find a chest

I love how you got all the way to that waterfall just to find a rope left by somebody who made it even _farther_ in. Cavers really are a unique kind of people. I’ve rarely seen a video where any cave explorer made it _past_ where someone else has dared to go and that’s just nuts to me.

How do you keep from getting lost in the cave systems?

Right out from a Jule’s Verne Book ‘’Journey to the Center of the Earth 🌍’’……. Fantastic Exploration AA-Twins…….. Awesome Videotaping 🎆

Proud of you boys for always pushing forward.

Some of us learn to walk only to crawl again.

I definitely enjoyed this one. One of the most intense cave videos of yours that I've seen. Love the cheetah rock with all the black spots!

You know good and well there are lands and worlds under our feet...there are too many folklore tales of worlds inside of this world...all that talk of the Hopi and Navaho (I think) people that "disappeared" into the earth... My point...my point is...with what I've seen in your vids...I think it's a real possibility that not only could that be a reality...but that you guys might well stumble upon real "proof" of that reality. KEEP GOING!! Your videos are incredible...truly incredible...

As an avid consumer of y'all's content I'd love to see y'all interviewed about your favorite experiences, scariest moments, greatest finds, climbing/ lighting/ filming equipment reviews, do's and donts of caving, tips and tricks to staying warm and navigating your way back out. Y'all are some epic explorers! I'd love to join y'all for an adventure one day! Keep being badasses fellas. Thanks for taking us along!

Those cat 🐾 paw prints all (the vast majority of the prints) appear to be going the same direction,with some older than others. These prints and their orientation of going the same direction (up hill) is a strange find,almost as strange as those 2 cigarette butts (Winston Mentals,unless mistaken.) After careful examination,ALL of those paw prints head the same direction,with none that I can discern going down the slope exceptionally odd.

Absolutely love seeing every video yall make. Incredible journeys. Just please check water table and weather before you leave ❤ would be nice to keep seeing videos from yall Edit, incredible cave formations here, really spectacular stuff

Growing up while at a family's friends house their kids of the neighborhood discovered a cave similar to this. But while was getting mapped out a group of thugs snuck into the cave an in the span of 24 hours they spray painted penis' everywhere, trash everywhere and broke ALL the cave formations easy to access. People can just suck.

To niesamowite miejsce! Łał!!! Jestem zachwycony. Brak mi słów. Coś fantastycznego. Jakby na inne planecie. Brawa za odwagę chłopaki.

When I hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2019, I discovered that there must be a large cave under the trail. It was in the first 10 miles or so. It had rained and water was running down the mountains and crossing the trail. But at one point the water disappeared into the hillside but I could still hear it running under my feet. There must be a small cave system there that the water flows through. I didin't see an opening large enough to get into, but i wasn't really looking for one. Just a not for future finds.

There is no amount of money you could pay me to go down there. You guys have balls.

Love the formation @8:10 I lost the comment but I second the guy suggesting you hook up with bat researchers if you haven’t already. You could probably help out a ton.

Not only are you guys having healthy fun but you are brave and letting us see wonderful hidden places. Much Respect

what state are you guys in? does that cave have a name? awesome video, that cave has some beautiful formations.

That cave was incredible guys! Good find!

3:25 somebody put A heart and initials on a rock. Looks like somebody was in there before.

Don’t you know the rules??? You have to place torches to remember where to go when you head back

Good you made it back out of the cave , Rocks and Boulders have minds of there own gravity is king and water erodes over time my thought is if an obstruction plugs the flow or drain area the water could act as a sink with a stopper in it - could result in a very bad situation and hypothermia is not your friend

The rocks at 5:55 look like building rubble
