Hi! I think the cause cause of the fall was putting in the rope the wrong way into the STOP descender. It happened to me once while caving and thankfully I noticed just before I started descending, but if the stop lever is engaged with your left hand, the rope should be making an S shape going into the descender. I also sometimes refer to the diagram found on the descender, since after around 9 hours in rope you have to expect that you will make mistakes. Stay safe!

I should have adressed this more in the video, thank you for the comment. A cave or mine is never worth risiking your life over, so safety should always a priority.

Cool mine! Good that you didn't hurt yourself when you fell.

[@ExploringtheNordics]

Thank you ✨

Great video as always :)

[@ExploringtheNordics]

Thanks!

Bro, that was a decent tumble. You were very lucky not to break something. It makes me wary about some of the places Ive been thinking of roping into. Just one mistake could be disaster

[@ExploringtheNordics]

Yes, things such as this reminds you that what you are doing has a danger element to it, and that it is important to double check everything, if possible also by someone else. Have you experienced any similar situations?

[@StevenAverage]

@ExploringtheNordics it was shocking how fast you fell, you had no time to do anything before you hit the ground. I havent been in any similar situations. I use ropes to hold on to but I dont abseil. Its still a good lesson for me to stay alert while underground. Everyone makes mistakes

Looked nasty when you fell.. the pulse must have gone up high ?

[@ExploringtheNordics]

Thanks! My pulse did get high, yes, but luckily I was not hurt. The rope slowed me down. A good reminer to double check the equipment and technique before you start.

Hi, what camera are you using to record theese videos?

[@ExploringtheNordics]

I am using a Gopro Hero 10 😊 If you plan on using it for the same purpose, I have heard that DJI Osmo Action 5 can be better in low light, though. It just came out, so I have not tried it.
