For a cave explorer he's incredibly stupid and standing in water looking at Sulphur dripping down the wall and saying "I can't imagine why oxygen would be low in here" ...I thought "surely he's being facetious" but then when he "calibrated" his sensor and continued in further I realized that he really has no clue what he's doing and probably won't live much longer at this rate.

Seeing below 19.5 is troubling. Thats the lowest I have gotten in a mine around here, any lower and I was going to turn back, but luckily that was the end of the mine. Was a massive mine, hundreds of meters in with lots of offshoots that I havent yet even explored. Its a bit of a hike to get to with no trail, its pretty clear very few people know about it. I was surprised I cant find any of your videos on it, it would be a cool place to watch you check out. 11:44 I have spent a long time searching there and I did fine a way in north east of there, but its so narrow even I would have to squeeze through. I don't mint tight spaces but thats too narrow. I havent been able to find another way in yet.

The spiders are actually Opiliones. They're not spiders because they have a stomach and no venom, but they are arachnids.

You should take a temp reading at each level and maybe a low cost wind meter. Just interesting to know.

I'd love to see pictures or a video of these mines being worked back N the Day! How did they do it,, how long did it take to dig a tunnel, etc.
@exploringabandonedmines3 жыл бұрын
A tunnel would normally advance 8 feet per shift.

I think you edited and delayed the film because some might recognize where it is and enter and disturb the stalagmites , stalactites or other nature within the cave..

Awesome Video! I wish I had the opportunity to do some exploration of old mine shafts! I’m not sure if it’s mentioned in the comments yet but I noticed at 20:56 the rock you pulled of looked like a face. Your thumb at that marker number beside the eye of the face! Well done and keep the exploration videos coming!

I kept waiting for some sort of rock slide because of taking one small piece of rock. I'm not very well educated on these matters.
