These guys have been pretty lucky for how lax they are with some basic safety measures and risk taking and going into most caves with little knowledge on what to expect. Also what are they thinking going into a sealed government site? Best case they're treading on an area that has a reason to be preserved for cultural significance or future research. Worst case the cave is sealed because it known to have a variety of different ways caves can be too dangerous, like instability or unbreathable air either from dust or the air itself. Also them recording themselves acknowledging there's a "No Trespassing" sign and going in anyways is also a great idea.

TN has some hot caves, from leaking dump sites, remember places like Oakridge area 50-100miles radius and 'the Bomb' development, and some leaking dumps in Eastern TN too over karst! If thinking about a gas detector don't forget about a bump tester fir it to, so you know it is actually working, but the cost is a lot for just a cavers, and maybe a Giger counter for a few caves I've heard about that are actually radioactive 'hot'. Sorry I don't have specific cave names or locations to share. Just that there are a few 'hot' caves, more than just radon because of leaking dump sites. Glade you left the possible arrow head. I hope you let the archeologist know about it and sent them the pictures, and the location. The value of some things can not be only measured in money. Knowledge and history do have value on there own, even if not everyone thinks it's valuable unless money is involved. Simple taking it word mean it's non-monetary value would be lost. And some places the law is written that you need to not take it, helping to keep sites from being plundered hopefully. Thanks for sharing in your exploration. Looks like a cave to me.

We had 2 well on out farm in Florida one was a artesian well and the other was a pump well the pump well was Sulphur which was ran into the house had to get so many water system ans it still was Sulphur smelling but out artesian well was so deep it did not smell of Sulphur which we end up using it to the house and drinking water for the cattle and horses. But the pump well water terrible smelling and it left lime calcium Sulphur and iron stains on everything.

@@frankmacleod2565 My understanding from ---as he considered himself the one to know (he wrote several books) that a pre-form did not mean it was not finished, it related to an era as well (he was rather condescending to me until he realized i was not a student). As I was told at the University heat treatment will turn the chert hues of pink to brown. other stone that flaked well might not be heat treated in younger eras. Heat treating before knaping will make for sharper edges and thinner form. But it's always good to check with a local university to know who was in the area and when.

[@PositronicDiscombobulator]

I spent years underground and scaling walls and backs (Roof) was done everyday. Mines are constantly caving in as the rocks expand and the crushing weight does it's thing. The slabs above you can be pried down with the slightest bit of leverage. You can even do it by hand and it's impossible to tell if one will bring the rest down. Sometimes, you can't see if one is about to fall until you walk under it to the other side of it. It's the walking under it that freaks me out and I would even be afraid to raise my voice in there.

I live in the Pennsylvania Coal Region and for years the government has been blocking off abandoned coal mines. They do it for safety and mine runoff kills streams. When I was young we had sulfur creeks around where I live. These days they make settling ponds to remove the toxic mine runoff and some creeks are starting to recover. When I was in high school a few of us would go down into the mines and every single one we knew of got blocked off. Some you can't even tell a mine was there.

Dude! Your subscriptions are astronomical now! I startedwhen you had maybe 770 subscribers! Congrats! You are now an American success and can start selling Action Adventure shirts! I can tell you why you've succeeded: 1. This is the most important - you can hold a camera without jerking the camera around and snapping your head back anf forth and up and down so much the viewrer gets car sick and pukes. MOST cavers do that, older guys just can't handle watching them. This is the most important thing. 2. Your fun to listen to and love what your doing. It's infectious. And I don't like spiders either so I know right where you're coming from (never trust anything with 8 eyes). 3. You find great caves and push new passages where you can, it gives viewers a sense of adventure. 4. You get in tight spots that give us claustrophobia that are still mostly safe (if they scared me too much I'd have to stop watching, I don't want to support something that could end you) (please never slither down super tight passages that start sloping down hill, those things have become death traps many times over the years. Hanging upside down is fatal in the youngest strongest people in at most 3 days, usually 2, the lungs fill with fluid after screaming headaches begin, humans just aren't made for that). 5. You make enough so people can make a habit of watching once or twice a week or so, and they start looking forward to it. So there you go - so start buying some silver while you can, the American dollar will be inflated to worthlessness in the next 3-4 years, it can't be stopped at this point, so take advantage of silver & gold while you can and make hay while the sun shines, the precious metals will gain a lot in value and you will be left with something when our economic system caves in and depression hits in 3 or 4 years (when this happens who knows if youtube will stick around) - Yes I'm one of those edgy-kated types that had my own business for 30 years and learned a lot of economics and finances, now I'm old but you're young enough to take advantage of what I learned - the dollar has lost near 90% of its value since I was a kid, it will be a lot worse for your generation (I remember 10 cent coca colas in glass bottles and 4 for a penny hard candy).

That's definitely an arrowhead the napping on both sides tells you it isn't a flake of chert.and the swirly fossils are gastropods pretty much just old snails and mollusk like you said.

It never ceases to amaze n horrify me how many spiders are in these places...

I find myself wondering what they are eating in there??!!

But they are thriving in caves and finding other insects to eat. Doesn't look like a place I'd want to spend my months or years of life as a spider.

Yes brother, Real deal for sure. Cool find keep it! You was ment to find it. cool video brother Thanks for sharing.

[@dougwirtz1712]

You guys are making me wanna go explore.

[@kshanda]

Is it possible a cave was already there that had a coal seam in it that they then mined out? A reverse of you guys finding a cave in a mine, found a mine in a cave, haha? Those spiral fossils are really cool!

[@Dawid_Balcerzak]

That was soo mastered, seeing wide passage but 2 spiders on large webs on the way : "Noo bro, shamee, but it's the end of this route" 😂😂😂

[@peterodushkin8434]

Thanks for the awesome video. As far as I know if you find ancient artifact, you get to keep it I don’t know if you took it or not but it’s definitely a keeper.

[@SchoolforHackers]

Depends on where. You can’t on federal land.

[@roadkillavenger1325]

I'm an artifact collector, and that is 100% an ancient knife.

[@acm_1028]

Ya I was thinking a tool of some sort but not an arrowhead. If that's the case isn't it illegal to remove it from the location?

[@TTOS69]

​@@acm_1028lol if it's illegal it's just bc money can be made off it. Rather these guys take it as a keep sake than it be lost in the Earth forever or sold between rich people...

Scared of spiders but not afraid of a possible collapse?

[@PathosBedlam]

The metal rectangle you found was a part of an old internal combustion engine (It goes on the top part above the pistons and the hole was for adding oil). Likely a 4 cylinder from the size of it, possibly diesel, like a generator or something running outside the mine, to provide power and lighting in the tight spaces and keep the air clean. If anyone knows the model it's from or the correct name of the part add it in the comments. I think it's called the Rocker Cover.

[@NeoRipshaft]

For the arrowhead I expect if you locate the nearest anthropology department and fire off an email to em basically showing what you found and where you found it, they'd be able to tell you a lot about it since they'd know what groups operated in the area and around what times etc. and also inform you on how to best handle that kind of thing in the future, plus whatever other questions you guys have - they're usually happy to share knowledge.

[@frankmacleod2565]

No, they wouldn't be able to tell them much. It's a flaked flint cutting tool, they were made all over the world just like this, from millions of years ago until the modern era. They used to be much more common, but everyone takes them when they're found, so now they're not as common

[@geronimo5537]

likely would also get some form of trespassing fine or summoned to court for admitting to being in a federally blocked location.

[@frankmacleod2565]

[@BabbittdaWabbitt]

Seems like a natural cave adjacent to an old coal mine. The wall helps reduce acid mine drainage by keeping air / oxygen out. The company I used to work for got several. contracts in WV sealing up old mine openings.

Maybe more of a spear tip than a arrowhead but nonetheless a sick find.

[@AKay-pp8en]

That was fascinating, thank you!

[@comhaltacht315]

I love how they went through all that work to seal off the cave, but forgot the massive hole next to it.

[@daleolson3506]

It was done in 1940 ,the side eroded

[@sk1ntownsteelers]

Panthers cave in tionesta pa would be a great place to explore. Lots of caves and carvings in the rocks.

[@wickedone6476]

That was a stone knife , roughly 9,000 to 13,000 years old. You should have kept that, chances are that if you don't retrieve it then it will likely never see the light of day again , given some time it may be destroyed by the minerals building up on it and it becoming part of a mineral formation.

[@DrewishBear]

Definitely 13 billion

[@delonjohnson5907]

Why not leave it? I mean it's literally part of that habitat and would do better there than be a trophy.

[@DrewishBear]

@@delonjohnson5907 they should have left their knives too and gone home and brought back more..all tools should be abandoned in nature, naturally

@DrewishBear it's been there since the original settlers so your argument is invalid. Our would you go to a native American burial and strip it of everything so you can sit them on top of your Playstation
