I mean having your luck run out is one thing, but having air bubbles cause an underwater mud slide that traps you in a cave which has never happened before in cave diving is a whole nother level.

[@KarstRats]

It haooens more often than you think. A lot of thatvstyff is only suspending itself because of water pressure. Add air and displace that water and change the pressure. Cave divers risk it a lot more than I think they even realize. Especially those who explore new caves. Once a cave has been gone in thousands of times it's kinda deemed stable by association. But yeah. I will only ever dry cave because of this. Whats there you know is decently solid because it's suspending itself with no help from other pressures. Yeah dry caves collapse some times thafs usually from a massive amount of age. Or because it spent half it's life under water that dried up. Making mud aka "the chinking of a cave" crack up and get brittle. Those dry caves can suck a big one and I'll stay away. A solid limestone cave though? You're statistically safer in a limestone cave during an earthquake than you are on the surface if you're around buildings and trees. Which most places have.

[@KarstRats]

But in this case it had never happened before so they didn't realize this could happen.

[@kkonaice]

Around 4 years ago, I was river rifting near the Royal gorge and our instructor pointed out a rock sticking out of the water. He told us that the rocks was hollow on the inside from erosion and that underneath the water there’s a decent sized opening. He then told us a while back a newly married couple decided to go on a river rafting trip for there honeymoon in the spring time (waters the highest and roughest in spring) and during the section with the rock, the husband fell off the raft and instead of trying to lay flat on top of the water he tried swimming for the raft. Before he made it he got sucked into the hole drowning in the process. The opening was too small to recover his body and it remains that way too this day. The rock bears the nickname “Widows Rock”. The though of suddenly getting sucked inside of a rock and not being able to get through the hole you came in is terrifying.

[@kkonaice]

Looked these up and they are called “undercut rocks” and they are pretty common and extremely dangerous. People get body parts stuck in them all the time.

[@kaialolll]

yeah, i had to further my understanding through reading the comments

[@unai_asecas9070]

I still don’t. The cave must be “m” shaped where the middle stem is longer and so it balances on this middle stem and one of the side columns. There must also be a hole in the middle to go from one side to the other and one of the side columns is shorter and leaning against a solid rock. Let’s say they were going from right to left of the “m”, when they were in the left side the bubbles of their breathing lifted the left side making the rock rest on the right column which stepped on the line. This is how I see it but I might be wrong.

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

As the kind of guy who "will go down swinging"... If my best efforts can't save my own life, then the "next best" is that whatever my progress might accomplish before I'm done is at least enough to get someone else out of it alive. I don't know how Parker would feel about it, but I've noticed that a LOT of us (as adventurer types) seem to act and feel a lot of the same ways about a lot of the same things. ;o)

[@umbramaex]

That’s heartbreaking. I really feel like because Bill was the more experienced - he left Parker to try his best to find a solution. But Parker was probably panicked out of his mind and wanted to find another way too, but unfortunately perished. Bill just sitting there in the water, not caring, really says it all. He feels the weight of his friends death on him and he wants to go with him too in that moment. 😢 Also… Parker taught the cops how to rescue divers and they cared for him so much they gave no hesitation to be there early morning to get their friend back. 😢

[@MegaDudeman21]

[@user-ik7vm1kt6q]

On almost all of these videos, survivors are mentioned to re-enter the sport and often the exact cave they were endangered in. Many find this strange, but I completely understand it. I'm not a participant in extreme sports of any kind, but the overwhelming urge that first person felt to go down and dive into an underwater cave must be strong enough to beckon the ones who already made that choice back in.

My safety diver, (girlfriend), found me naked and unconscious with a spilled beer on the floor next to an empty bag of cheetos. She said my fingers and face had orange stains on them. She was able to fireman carry me to safety (bedroom). It seems I had become complacent and too comfortable and not recognizing the dangers of being alone in my man cave.

I will never scuba dive in my life-have no desire to. But your videos are so interesting! It’s like I’m terrified but just can’t look away.

[@6969SpAcE6969]

My deepest respect goes to anyone riding the line between life and death, for they know how to truly live in the presence of death. Onwards and on, the spirit lives on. I’m sure his passing was far beyond tragic.

Staying underwater for 4 house doing nothing we drive me crazy! Such a sad outcome!

[@FordRangerClassics]

I've been thinking about getting into diving in general, and I told myself once I got a little older I had to start reading again. Seems like a good combination since my knees hurt

[@brianweaver327]

I've learned everything I need to know about cave diving by watching videos like this one. Namely, I've learned to never go cave diving.

[@SprayNmount]

Cave diving just seems so dangerous. I’ve watched many videos like this and people probably shouldn’t go to tight places where they can’t breathe.

[@EverlastGX]

I heard this story before. It's one of the most horrifying cave diving story.

[@the_Z48F1]

You are one of the best at this

[@diving6524]

I used to do underwater recovery for our fire department. I learned so much about so much it’s not for everyone I can tell you that you never quite prepared for what you’re gonna find.

I was a camper during the 2000s and a counselor in the next decade at the camp built around this spring. lived 2 miles away, and spent every summer for years there. never once did I hear about this. we heard about the cave divers death, for sure, but always heard it in relation to Wakulla springs (half a mile or so away, but feeds into the same cave system. pretty wild to learn.

[@asylumental]

Its kind of sad knowing that they could have probably dug themselves out with that 45 minutes of air. They kind-of wasted it in the confusion, not knowing what to do because of it being an incident that hasnt happened before.. its a tragic learning event for others.. hopefully if it happens in the future then the divers will know to just try and remove the sedement from the hole that got filled.

[@mela8940]

Hi there. Thanks for the beautiful videos. It's respectful and informative, at no point do I feel it's seeking to capitalize on tragedy. The facts and emotion relayed are so honest that I'm often time left with immense sadness for the loved ones of the lost. Your videos serve as a reminder to not only be thoroughly prepared but also not to take anything for granted, to live each moment. Thank you once again.

[@datacipher]

lots of people take morbid pleasure in the deaths of others. A form of schadenfreude. It makes one feel better about their life and their decisions. This is nothing but exploiting tragedy. You enjoy it - Own it.

Dangerous hobby or career for people to do. I hope the risk is worth the reward. RIP 🕊️ at least he helped save his friend. I feel bad for the guy, but more so for his family and friends that have to live with that horrible loss in their hearts. God bless them.

[@yolorodriguez4794]

The moment I heard "Indian Springs, Florida" I knew someone was going to die. There's nothing you could possibly see down there that's worth your life.

[@TeaCup1940]

I think the thrill is that they know they can die and to make it out alive is an accomplishment. Maybe that's why they do it. They want to engage in a dangerous and potentially fatal activity. They must like the risk. If they were afraid of death, then why risk it unnecessarily for no good reason? Now the rescuers are a completely different story. They dive to save somebody's life. That is a honorable mission.

[@gwugluud]

6:20 - That's where you call off the dive and turn back. If you like yourself at all.

[@kurbis0729]

This happened while they were turning back though…

[@stevenwilson8718]

This one should definitely be on dive talk

[@MordecaiAliVanAllenOShea]

Cave diving seems akin to regular people deciding to go be astronauts and just winging a mission.

[@syntaxerrorsix3137]

I can assure you we aren't "winging" anything.

[@MordecaiAliVanAllenOShea]

@@syntaxerrorsix3137 that analogy was a whoosh for you, I guess.

[@syntaxerrorsix3137]

@@MordecaiAliVanAllenOShea No, it was simply inaccurate. We don't wing anything. We use extensive training, risk mitigation and plan each dive individually.

I’m sorry but if you get a sigh of relief every time you get out of a cave why would you enter it to begin with obviously you don’t like it 😭

It was both mid January and mid shit-push when Scary Interesting posted, the sheer excitement and intrigue of such occurrence relieved my agony as the remaining solid mass exited its tunnel gracefully.
