As a dry caver gus, it seems like we mutually think each other is the crazy one for the hobbies we engage in. When you dry cave, you have a helmet and knee pads, elbow pads, boots, ropes and most importantly, an infinite supply of air. With cave diving, it's a race against the clock, and so much can go so wrong so fast. I don't know how you do it, but of course much respect.

[@josieanti.jostar515]

And as someone who does neither, I commend you both haha

[@sammoyers905]

I love caving. I have done it since I was young in Boy Scouts. I have been diving since 1977, and never even considered anything beyond Cavern. These two guys have got me teetering on the edge. I REALLY want to see the crystal caves, and I am intrigued, but I still have that little voice in the back of my head that says, (usually in my daughter's voice. 😊) "Are you FRACKING INSANE!!!" So, I get it.

[@jackn8384]

an infinite supply of air... until a flash flood.

[@LuxFuxx]

Who the hell first saw this tiny hole and thought "Yep, I'm going to dive head first into this."

[@mas1158]

I would never do that. Too tight AND also submerged the level of anxiety thinking about being there alone is unreal😬

[@michaelcrossey3532]

As a completely recreational diver with claustrophobia issues I just wanna say I find this channel to be absolutely amazing.

[@Krystal-O]

I normally don't like when people just quote the video in the comments. But Woody sneaking in the hilarious: "I wasn't talking about you... but if you're paranoid, I get it". Funny af, you two together 🤣

[@wouterbmx072]

The trully amazing and terrifying thing is that someone once went in there as first person ever, not knowing what lies ahead, only going through a tunnel with barely if any possibilty to turn around...

[@Jimmy_CV]

I've been snorkeling at Madison blue , I always wondered what the cave looked like.

[@melissadinapoli7253]

Okay…..listening to the “why” while watching this video of these guys perfectly executing the “why” I finally understand your passion. People always ask me “why?” About riding a motorcycle 🏍, I see (or hear) a few bikes go by and I stop what I’m doing and poke my head up instantly wishing I was along side them. Everyone has their own passion that inspires them to work hard honing skills and building experience, always striving to better their own skill sets, even as claustrophobic as I am I actually felt your excitement about doing something not everyone CAN or WOULD do!! I have a new found respect for cave diving, keep the videos coming and thank you for taking us where no claustrophobic has gone before 😊🙏🏻👍🏻

[@teeandkids937]

My anxiety just quadrupled from behind a screen haha I’m in awe of people who do this regularly and maybe slightly jealous haha :p the water is sooo clear!

[@BrianaCunningham]

I always find the crystal clear water just so magical looking

[@whatsgoodmyguy4391]

Yeah I find the same clarity in the Caribbean... Lol.. no caves for me.. I am suprised that they dont use a submersible with radar and cameras before going in..

[@madelinehoyt7685]

It always just surprises me there is clarity or any kind haha

[@HS2103]

Great way to start a Friday. Really cool to see how the whole punch in, punch out system works, and understand the rules a little better. Awesome video as always guys!

[@mclovin2408]

Today sucked, but woody and Gus always make bad days better, legit helps me work better when I listen to them.

[@nerodcs3087]

the cave looks awesome, but knowing you can't just turn around because its so tight make me...uncomfortable even behind by screen :)

[@heyitsalannaluv]

I seen this video lol..I love how I a non cave diver has watched so many cave diving videos..thanks to you guys you really opened me up to seeing these beautiful caves that I would've never seen if it wasn't for dive talk..can't wait to see what you guys say!

[@marcontreras8932]

Cave groupie

[@nickdanks2811]

Your channel has inspired me to get my open water certificate! Thank you Woody and Gus for the great content and educating us about the world of scuba diving!!

[@jayneethereal4014]

Can I just say, I HATE reaction videos. They usually are just people stealing people's content and having nothing to offer to the experience. But I watch about 6 Dive Talk videos a day because you guys not only have great reactions but you also have sooooo so so much knowledge and valuable input! Im not a diver but you two are inspiring me to get into it! Thoooooo I should probably learn how to swim first🤣

[@jg2072]

As a former law enforcement officer who has dealt with body recovery I appreciate the tablets letting people know what to do.

[@welovemarbles7191]

It's always interesting to me how different people are from each other. Some people find this thrilling but I would be terrified. This is your vacation but my worst nightmare. Really cool to watch though.

[@gabriellafox7948]

I agree!!

[@towelman8589]

Love the consistent content! You guys are seriously the perfect team 👍

[@rainbowraver666]

this makes me wish there was like a cave diving video game or a game where you have to go exploring in the wilderness looking for new caves and mapping them! I would never want to do it in real life but it looks so magical and I feel like it would be really fun to have mechanics for different gear set ups and get points based on how well you follow the rules and how well you keep your trim and buoyancy :)

[@CChissel]

Closest thing I can think of would be Subnautica, there are caves but it’s not really about that. I would love a cave diving game, a good one that is.

[@CChissel]

@Danny Al Nah

[@rainbowraver666]

@@CChissel yeah i'm picturing the aesthetic of subnautica but more realistic mechanics and different objectives

[@bibrosko]

There's a cute (but v easy n chill) one for the WII its called Endless Ocean... I played it all the time as a child. You can pet the fish too sooo great game

[@bibrosko]

Apparently theres also an endless ocean 2 that seem to have more mechanics or at least more stuff on the UI... Never played it tho! Now i kinda want to...

[@jacobcook1608]

Honestly I think that's why yall get along so well is bc yall are so opposite but yet have the for the most part the same kind of energy about cave diving I love the tiny little bickering yall do about the speed of Goin through the cave

[@lilheinz9496]

More people will adopt this channel as a guilty habit over time. I can already see the algorithms working more in your favor than it used to. Good work guys keep it up!

[@bren8168]

Love your videos guys, I'm a driving instructor i use your videos as audio books while I drive to and from lessons and the fact yous explain everything that is going on I don't have to be able to watch the video and can just listen to the story while I drive.

[@eliz_scubavn]

That cave looks like it would be awesome to dive in. Like was mentioned, the fact that they’re able to go into there and do what they’re doing is a testament to their skill. I can only hope to get cave certified one day.

[@lsewell95]

Great video guys. In the event that you encountered a problem in this cave that required you to thumb the dive, would you attempt to turn around in a tight restriction or would you push forward until both divers can safely and easily turn around? I would think that it would be dependent on the problem and where you were inside this cave but I’d like to hear your perspective.

[@DIVETALK]

Great question, it really depends on the spot. There was one dive where we were at tight tunnel like this and instead of going backwards we just went further in for a minute until we found a big enough spot to safely turn around. All 3 of us were able to turn around and exit the tight tunnel safely.

[@monkisethojane2218]

Nice one there I had that in my mind at those tight spots.. scary thinking about it.. metres underground in the dark. Stuff of nightmares.

[@MegaCharns]

@@monkisethojane2218 no they had light we could definately see them

[@computerbob06]

@@DIVETALK Hello gentlemen. You should check out some UK cave diving videos, where cave diving started in the 30's of course - although I believe there were some folk free diving caves in the 20's. 4 Celsius only, and mostly pretty silted out, might not make for the best prese tation on your channel, but it seems to be a whole different take on diving in caves!

[@johndoe7270]

It's nice to see you guys just enjoying a video.

[@BluTheMermaid]

This is what I imagine being a fish swimming inside the coral is like. It looks so awesome!

[@ericw.integrityfirst3069]

Have been watching all Your videos and just realized I hadn't subscribed, sorry, problem solved, as a long time FF/Medic, one of my jobs has always been confined space rescue/recovery. I just moved to Wakulla FL, and somebody asked why I hadn't tried cave diving. After watching Your video's, Mike Young, and came to learn I was living 10 minutes from the legendary Edd Sorensen for years, I'm frustrated I didn't know about this sooner! So, I've stopped by Edd's shop and will be putting together a safe, attainable training schedule so that hopefully by next year I'll be certified and have enough experience to see this amazingly beautiful underwater world! This video is a cave 1 hr North of me! Thank You for Your video's and always stressing safety first!!!

[@TickTockTimeTraveler]

as soon as I saw Woody's coffee cup enter the frame I knew this one was gonna be fun. Thank you for the video to start my morning!!

[@annikkirahko6714]

You guys make me wanna learn how to dive. I really wanna do this now it looks so fun! I went to my first dry cave last weekend and now I really wanna learn how to do this!

[@diss-abledgamer5370]

Woody has a way with words, it's just so well thought out and wise. Always a pleasure to listen to his kind and objective words of wisdom!

[@ABN6565]

Rocks are supposed to be wet when high quality H²0 em! Can't wait to see you guys there

[@jordanharris5013]

I think having both camera angles makes the video better. If you take out one angle I think the overall video would be worse. It's amazing pov from the 1st person but the 2nd guy filming the 1st going thru obstructions is awesome too so I think you need both.

[@moysauce788]

Props to Gus on the splicing of the videos! Made it more cohesive and I'm sure it wasn't easy to do!

[@sstout86]

Always stoked for a new video from you guys!!!!

[@SewFloSewing]

Wow that cave looks awesome! I have lived in Florida my entire 30 years of life and it wasn’t until I discovered your channel that I learned there was cave diving here. I have no interest in diving but I love watching, you guys introduced me to something beautiful that I didn’t know existed around me.

[@TK-on6eb]

You should watch & react "Diving into the unknown" documentary! Story of four Finnish cave divers face their worst nightmare when two of their friends drown deep inside an underwater cave in Norway. When the official recovery operation is called off by the Norwegian and British authorities after being deemed too risky, the friends set out on a secret mission to retrieve the bodies themselves. One of the best documentary i've ever seen!

[@dupeesfashionconsultant4204]

Starting my first dive training class next weekend, which is something that I never even considered getting into....until I found this channel last year and am now extremely excited to get into it. I love these guys, thank you very much for the inspiration

[@gaatjullieniksaan535]

I'm from the Netherlands and love your channel. I'm no diver but love the clips your make with comments on other clips.

[@sliceoflife8107]

I wish I was able to get scuba certified. When I was a kid I had a near drowning incident in a pool when I was left unattended. Since then I get an intense fear when I feel water on my nose. Even if it's in the shower I freeze up and panic. It's kept me from doing a lot of things I want to do since I used to live on the coast. I've tried to get over this fear but I'm not able to. I have to wear a mask whenever I get into water, which is fine until it comes off. The best I can do is whitewater kayaking. So far I have only been capsized twice but I was able to stay calm and get my face out of the water. Thank you for letting me live vicariously through you all.

[@Bourdaga]

Awesome reaction! I loved that you were talking about a place I've been ! Madison Blue is in Lee Florida about 40 min from Moody AFB and we would go swimming there all the time ! I would love to go back cave certified!

[@Yggdrasil42]

I'm with you Woody. When do we leave? ;) Haven't dived any Florida caves yet.

[@nattoralikk]

Just got my open water thanks to you guys! Did it in Eilat at the Red Sea and it was an amazing experience, it's like being on another planet

[@nattoralikk]

@S M Yeah the coral reef here is incredible, so much beautiful coral and animals to see

[@nattoralikk]

@S M I'm really glad I chose to get certified here yeah. If you ever come back, I'd really recommend checking out the Israeli side here in Eilat as well. There's two fantastic shipwrecks here. One is called Satil and is about 20m deep and the other around 30m. I'm continuing and doing my advanced open water now and so did Satil today and am doing the other one tomorrow. Was real magical, lots of lionfish and angelfish and other things to look at.

[@nattoralikk]

@S M Thanks man, you too!

[@JP-jp9jz]

I CANNOT stop watching even though how panicked I get just watching this. I would love to experience this as a hobby in my life. I just have to get over 1. The fear of being stranded under water or even above water for that fact. 2. The claustrophobia. Big respect to all who does this for fun.

[@JovanValentin711]

I don't dive at all. Always wanted to try it out one day, but idk!! Great video and they were definitely Cool, Calm, and Collective.

[@leealpalazzolo8024]

I use to dive when I was younger, adv. open water, but that would give me a panic attack! Love watching you guys, great channel.

[@lydialeigh4]

I liked having both perspectives of the dive. Great video of a really interesting looking cave system. I am definitely going to check out their channel. I also wondered how/when they would turn around if there were a problem. Glad you guys answered that.

[@Fresh_Biscuits]

Wow almost 200k! That's awesome guys. I'd LOVE to see the percentage of divers/cave divers/cavers that are subbed VS the people like me me who have never caved.

[@johncrea9395]

Guys This tunnel takes you to more BIG cave. I want to say that there is over 6000ft at Madison, max depth is 130 This is one cave that should be on everyone's bucket list. It is located about 1hr west of Luraville/Ginnie area, and about an hour east of Tallyhassee. Tons of tunnels, and just some of the most beautiful cave Bottom line you gotta go, and probably dedicate a weekend for diving there, then come back again and again John

[@ereynoldful3974]

I could be wrong but I could've sworn I met you Gus before you did Dive Talk when I worked at Madison Blue Spring and they had volunteers building the newer stairs. But not sure. It may have been Lafayette Blue cos we would sometimes work the park there. Anyhow...who knows but love seeing my favorite spring in the world on your channel guys. Madison is beautiful right now but the rain is coming in and it may go back up this week. It was browned out last month for a bit.

[@peezdoc]

"patient like me"... Hahaha instantly thought of the same thing Woody said about that previous video. That's hilarious...

Hey Gus and woody thanks to you guys I start my open water cert august 6th through ssi. Thanks for your inspiration and passion it really helped me decide to actually go for it. Thanks for all you two do.

I’ve learned just from the KZbin videos you guys have, lol you have taught me well already. Yes I do, seven minutes and four seconds into the video. I have not once lost the line.. 😁💪🏼 never took my eyes off of it it’s one of the primary things I pay attention to. It’s underneath and to the left, it was to the right around that bend.

[@jasonmcmillan6598]

I am a diver. I also teach firefighters at the state fire academy. We teach that a firefighter should NOT modify their scuba configuration for the purpose of getting to the fire. We do teach modifications of the Scba system for self rescue or to get to a FF in distress. The reading is if you got to get weird to get in- you are increasing the risk to get out 3X Seeing divers do weird stuff to explore gives me great pause

You all got different balls to brains ratios 😂
