Divers React to Raw Cave Diving Footage

[@alexandrahuff2303]

Lmfaooo, "stop touching me, get away from me!" You two remind me of my siblings and I debating and arguing on vacations which is exactly why I love your channel. Gus is the most impatient buddy ever and I would not want to be in front of him

[@DIVETALK]

Coming in hot!

[@stephenlamley541]

I always thought it would freak me out, but as long as there's no pressure on me personally I'm almost certain I'd love it. Must be so freeing. I imagine it being as close to floating in space as one can realistically get. Mores the pity

[@electrictroy2010]

WOODY: I thought I’d beat this one off. ME: 😳 Say what now? .

[@scambaitspidey3470]

They are definitely opposite which makes the perfect balance :)

[@miguelgarcia2480]

My favorite so far of you guys diving - learned a ton. I understand Gus' encouragement; in fact, over the years, my Dad when I was younger, my football coach in High School, and my Ranger instructors in the Army were all equally encouraging and used similar language. They all had the patience of Gus - its uncanny. :)

[@gregmeyer9595]

It’s incredible for a non diver to hear how much respect professional divers have for the natural terrain, so much as some fingerprints in the mud makes a difference. Love you guys.

[@katrinaDS]

I am watching this for the 3rd time this morning. The beginning seriously cracks me up! “Go! Go! Get off of me! Get away from me!” You guys fight like a couple of toddlers. Gus has the patience of a piss ant. (Which I can’t say much because I do too) He looks at everything real quick and is ready to move on to the next thing. Woody wants to take his time and soak up the beauty of every single thing. So it makes it entertaining for us to watch. Polar opposite people but the best of friends. 💙

[@lsewell95]

I’m only 3 minutes in and already laughing at the two of you.

[@giggitycore1982]

I love your guys' input towards each other and the calm reactions. The way I'd want a friend and/or diving partner to act and react.

[@herbertderbersfield5870]

You gentlemen have a beautiful relationship. So real and open, you also have an understanding of each other that goes past the depth of explainable. ❤ and respect

[@Lord_Sully]

This was good banter lmao. You can tell you guys are actually friends. Also these kind of caves look fun. Not the restriction filled muddy ones.

[@fumblebunny1993]

Love the good-natured banter between Gus & Woody :) I cannot dive (claustrophobia) so I live vicariously through diving videos. By far, the most exciting videos are the cave-diving ones. Much appreciation to you two for bringing great videos to us viewers!

[@priscillarose4176]

I love you guys so much. You two make the best team. And seriously the world needs a dad like Woody and an uncle like Gus.

[@dereksalazar9282]

This is the stuff I was wanting to see from you guys. That cave looked crazy with all the twists and turns. It's nightmare fuel for me, as I haven't ever done more than recreational qualification. Really good stuff! It would be interesting to see you both doing a 'gear check' before your dive, not as instruction, but more like how you self-check before you go in the water.

[@TheRealTomLauda]

Hahaha you guys are hilarious, i love the dynamic between you too ! Great dive ! I'm always surprised to enjoy your videos so much, without having any interest in diving myself. It's probably because i'm watching something that is completely out of my own world, with two great guys i feel i could be friend with. The videos of you reacting to your own dives are really great, keep them coming !

[@claudiaforstner6533]

Very well said, I love them!

[@jessicataylor1049]

I’ve never had any interest in cave diving and I never knew a single thing about it but I stumbled across your videos a week ago and I’m hooked! I watch your videos while I work and they’re just so relaxing and enjoyable. Such good content you guys!

[@andrewrobinson4959]

Love the raw footage, you guys had me in fits of laughter with Gus's impatience. one of my favourite vids to date. keep up the awesome work.

[@michelledavis5562]

Woody &Gus, a great way to start the morning!! Love ur channel!

[@samuraile6625]

It's actually good you show raw futage. It's shows you that's cave diving it's not easy and speciály if you creating content + dpd. Gus is experience cave diver and even then everyone sometimes struggle. For me well-done

[@notyourfriend1094]

What makes the channel so good is difference of opinion but at the same time understanding

[@AdamA8]

I enjoy watching you guys doing your own dives as much as reviewing other people's dives.

[@Josh-hr5mc]

Almost to 200K subs. I remember when you guys were barely even close to 5K. Its awesome watching content creators that aren't doing it for money get successful at this

[@nitaiperez]

It's very cool to get a feel for your cave experience. As an AOW diver with no cave/wreck cert (yet) I was always wondering about feeling claustrophobic, but this video makes it look as safe and chill as you always relate to it. It looks like great fun, and something I'd definitely want to try one day.

[@austinsmith3187]

I respect your guys ability to talk to each other in a real but understanding way. Even when things may feel personal based on the conversation I can tell the ultimate goal is create more awareness and education of cave diving and how to enjoy it as safely as possible

[@kathyinwonderlandl.a.8934]

This is so funny you both are so comfortable with each other it’s a pleasure to watch especially in this episode being you two diving. Diving,especially cave or deep water saturation diving ,is my claustrophobic nightmare .I’d rather be swimming with sharks than scuba dive..so this channel and Hal, with Sharks Happen channel are favorites 💙🫣🫠Thankyou!

[@aaabucus3104]

I'm sure that Gus was just verbally announcing his excitement of seeing some new type of cave walls that you guys were going through that he hadn't noticed before.

[@DIVETALK]

Exactly!

[@aaabucus3104]

If I was safely able to get down that far let me tell you something right now I would be throwing f bombs left and right.

[@NinjaChokeOutside]

Thank you so much for sharing this experience with all of us Woody and Gus! More uncut dive videos of you guys please. This place looks so special.

[@huckfu5557]

When I first started watching your videos I would get anxiety feeling borderline claustrophobic feeling but over time I have seen how safe you guys make it and it has went away.

[@AngusMurray]

Hahaha well I will say it's great you go over footage! To discuss things you might not have remembered to talk about that helps future dives to go smoother

[@jodinicholas890]

You guys are so fun to watch. Thanks

[@evzl3589]

Thank you so much for sharing more details about your dives. It was very informative to see Gus's computer and Woody did a great job explaining.

[@NefariousTV]

Woody and Gus are like an angel and demon on your shoulder bickering with each other about things and it is my favorite KZbin friendship ever made. Hahahaha I love you guys.

[@DarkKoffee]

I just had a chance to actually watch it. OMG, you guys reminded me A LOT of my brother (aka my buddy) and I 😂. The dynamic between you guys is like a breath of fresh air 😊🙂. I’m not surprised at all as to why everyone loves watching your videos whether they are divers or not 😎😁

[@DIVETALK]

Thanks so much!!

[@Grimangell135]

When you first start diving with someone: "Hey! Doing good buddy! You ok? Good!" When you've been diving for a while: "Oh hurry the **** up. Come on!" You can always tell when you've got a good buddy for diving cause they get you and your humor. Love you guys and still learn so much about diving and things to avoid. Thanks to you, I am now trying to talk my dad into getting rebreathers for megalodon teeth diving.

thank you for your channel, i scuba dived only one time in my life but that was in a beautiful place in Corsica long long time ago, i use to love exploring dry cave when i was young but now i have claustrophobia and panic attacks and that would make impossible for me to even try diving deeper than 10 meters , thing is i would love to cave dive and i learned a lot with your channel, so a big big thank you as you are really cool , fun and make me dream about these crystal caves :)

[@LoveCaveDiving]

Awesome! Gus, you made me feel good when you were dropping your cookie. Looks like me setting the primary reel! I don't feel so bad. I'm going to do a cave dive tomorrow. Looking forward to it more now after watching you guys. Charging my batteries as I type. Thanks!

PMSL! Gus growled XD.. Woody did it feel like you had an angry bear behind you? haha. Gus "He probably died at the T" Woody "we didn't think it would take you 15mins to drop a cookie" I loved this video, I must admit I started feeling slightly uneasy when I seen how long it took for Gus to catch up and find them haha

[@Dee-JayW]

Just found your channel and LOVE it! ❤Hello from Canada, 🇨🇦 I was certified through PADI in the 90’s. Our dive instructor/master was like a drill sergeant, he owned the local dive shop and had been a commercial underwater welder. Anyway, we complained about his rigidity and rules but I tell you, all of our class were excellent divers by the end of our course. Classroom I still remember how to calculate dives in a dive book, and our whole class drove to Vancouver Island for our open water. In April, in the Pacific. 44 degrees F …. I have never been so cold as that( which is why I bought a dry suit after) 3 days out on the ocean doing our dives. I dove all around the Caribbean and watching these videos, the moving of hands is making me crazy, that was drilled out of us immediately we were streamlined and knew how to frog kick as well as fins. We also knew to not TOUCH anything. My faves were wall diving and drift diving. Im too claustrophobic to do cave or wreck diving. I once dove with a group of people from USA, and we were on a reef dive. These people had there hands on everything and one kicked her fin, dislodging a part of the reef 👹 I believe they get a half hour pool training at some resort then are let loose. So it has been 20 years since I dove but hoping I can resume at some time soon. Great channel! ❤

Have you guys ever gone to a cave and decided that there were too many divers ahead of you? Seams like there is a point especially at narrow caves where you'd want to avoid going in case anyone had a problem and needed to get out of the cave.

Y'all have the best dynamic lol. It's always nice seeing you react to your dives.

[@MF-le7fp]

Woody, and Gus....awesome channel guys! I've enjoyed going through and watching your vids since discovering your channel a week ago. If I may, I have one constructive criticism, as well as a video idea (request), for you guys. The criticism is in regard to the audio volume differential between your commentary dialog, and the audio of the videos that you've been reacting to. Some have been better than others, but the majority are way off. One of the Mr Ballen vids' volume was so low that I had to max the volume. Which nearly blew my speakers when yall stopped it to comment. lol. While I realize yall are experts in cave diving, and not video editing, this is an issue that I think will pay dividends if it is rectified in future videos, sooner, than later. Don't know what editing software yall are using, but many have a "function" called "audio gain leveling, or matching", when laying down, and splicing video tracks in your timeline sequence. "Power Director" is what I use video editing, and it works very well for Windows OS. The video idea I have for you guys is to start doing "reviews" in regard to items, and equipment, which are manufactured specifically for "cave diving use" (ie deep depth pressures, and darkness). In other words, comparisons between flashlights used for recreational diving, at shallow depths, and flashlights used for 100+ meter dives in complete darkness. The lights yall prefer to use, and why. As well as who makes them. Basically, conversations about ALL your gear. One video mentions a "Megalodon" rebreather. It would be cool to see yall show one, and talk about what its best applications are, strengths, weaknesses, etc. And the list goes on. Dive computer brands to avoid because of frequent failures, etc. Dive line build materials, strength ratings, common brands, etc. Hopefully this is something that yall might find worth while in pursuing. I think many would find these types of videos very interesting, and possibly helpful. One last question....have either of you ever heard of a flashlight made by "Acebeam", called the "W30?" It's supposedly rated for diving up to 100 meters. It has one of the highest Candella ratings in the world, but it's Lumen output rating is only 500L. Sorry for the "novel", and thanks for any reply. 👍

[@John.Diaper]

Ever since Gus got that top of the line Petrel 3 from Shearwater it makes cave diving so much more ultra precise and fun that he is diving at a astronomical level of efficiency combined with an unheard of level of perfection that he was not aware of his actions. With the Petrel 3 Gus was able to not only able to advance his diving but he was also able to hit a skill level previously unheard of giving him the perfection of Brian Kakuk, the courage of Mike Young and the heart of Edd Sorranson. Put on top of that the speed of Usain Bolt and the formula one engine on his wrist you have the pinnacle of excellence. Hell, I have to include the soul of Sheck Exley too lets put that in there. So for Gus it was not that Woody was going too slow it was that to him Woody was basically at a standstill. Woody you must agree with me now after reading all this that Gus can not possibly be held responsible for his actions and that its actually your fault for wearing the Petrel2 and putting everyone else at risk.

Hey guys! Love your videos, I've been watching them all day. I'm no diver but I've always been extremely fascinated with it. Even knowing dangers and extensive procedures. However I like to free dive rivers in the summer to clean garbage and look for pretty rocks lol. I've found your videos SUPER informative and I have to say I enjoy all of it. Though much of the Information doesn't pertain to what I do some wim techniques and gear setups are very helpful. I've seen bike pump tanks for shallow diving but never strusted It. Watching you guys has shown that it's no simple task even when dealing with "simple situations" and "simple gear" I have a newfound respect and you guys and helps me see just that.
