Exploration And Rescue At The Box Turtle Cave

[@HumanzeeTamer]

Thats crazy to crawl around underground like that, i have a hard time breathing just watching you guys.

[@Muuip]

Nice cave! As a kid I searched years to find a cave but never did find one. He finds one every couple of weeks!

[@kathrynhodgson5037]

I fully understand why you crawl underground looking for caverns, it’s exciting! The camera must make some of those crawl spaces look smaller because I swear it looks like just my arm would fit through and you slither through like it was nothing. This sink hole looks really promising. I think the turtle should be named Lucky, because he sure was lucky you guys came along and found him.

[@joejones2582]

Little bitty turtle 🐢 love it how you just love and respect all animals your awesome chigg please never ever change

[@christopherbolton8524]

It takes a real man to save a turtles life. Happy st Pat's day .

[@computergrant1]

Hhheeeeyyyyyy Beau! Love your personality and all of your videos! Great times, and more to come! Glad that turtle didn't turn into a meal or a hidden, empty shell.

[@rmsingle55]

I want to really thank you for taking us along with you. I never had the chance to go down in something like that when I was younger and now being disabled with a lung problem doing this myself is way out of the question as being short of breath seems to have made me claustrophobic. It is strange that even watching you sometime make me short of breath LOL. I have seen times I wanted to grab your feet and pull you back and ask you if you have lost your mind LOL. All that aside I do love seeing what is under us and being able to go in places that are not places seen a lot and in most cases never seen before you all went in. The most fascinating cave you went into for me was where you found all those names on the wall from along time ago some I think were close to or in the late 1700's or early 1800's. What a connection to your areas historical past. Just wonder why they went in there.

[@bethjarvis5150]

Wow watching this video is all i want to do with that cave. They freak me out! But the video is cool. Thank you for putting them out there.

I'm a roof support specialist for a coal mining company and I highly encourage people not to do this.

[@ut000bs]

I'm a geologist and I've explored a lot of caves off the beaten path but I think watching this was the first time I ever felt a little claustrophobia. I got stuck once on the way back out of a tight hole until I realized the only reason I was stuck was because of a momentary rise halfway to panic. Makes you careful.

[@lauracullen8122]

I love turtles as much as I love you & your muddy crew. Keep him safe & healthy & i'll be sure you all get to heaven, the turtle too.

[@plum0214]

Beau the Badger, love the hand digging no need for a shovel. Great video.

[@2A4U.S.A]

Being claustrophobic I'm tensing up just watching! I have to admit I am more than a bit jealous of you guys and gals that can do this.. Big thumbs up!

[@billmiller959]

Really awsome cave. I love to explore caves and sinkholes. You seem to be in the sinkhole capital of the world. Are you not afraid that the bottom mite just fall out from under you one day. Like your whole county or state just gone in one big rain storm. Well hopefully that never happens. Lol keep up the great work. I watch your channel more then any other because your not stuck on one thing. One day detecting, one day magnet fishing, one day caves, or in the river. Well rounded show you put on. Happy hunting.

[@mtnman8876]

I'm a roof support specialist for a coal mining company and I highly encourage people not to do this. To much could go wrong.

[@froggleggers1805]

@@mtnman8876 I agree.

[@kimberlyduncan1053]

I'm just so glad you're not alone!!!! Thanks for sharing. I love these videos!

[@lindanwfirefighter4973]

I love these videos but man it makes me clostraphobic for sure. I find myself HOLDING ME BREATH!

[@toddconn8217]

exactly. I feel the same way. I'm sitting here going, please don't get stuck

[@LauraSasss]

I'm definitely having claustrophobia nightmares tonight.

[@MsKindaSorta]

I’ve waited a long time to finally watch a caving video. 🥺 Seems so dangerous.

[@connieo3618]

Me too!

[@AngelaFaithHodge]

Great to see this. The history and information you teach are incredible. Thank you for producing this podcast.

[@n8tuwstevenewland933]

Thanks for sharing Chigg. Probably on of the best caves so far. Could not believe those rooms. Keep them coming !

[@xavierjacques73]

Chiggs metal detecting days are over It's the nuggetnogging era and for new kids on the block Chigg has graduated to explorer caver discoverer

[@darlenefrancis1175]

OMG! I was so scared I had to fast forward a little. Glad you guys rescued the turtle.

[@BoshiYoshi]

Dang, when you were squeezing through that passage I was getting some serious "this hole was made for me" vibes.

[@srip63]

Edge of my seat! Holding my breath as you entered the cave of no return, almost passed out keped forgetting to breath!

[@TheMuirtonboy]

good to see your on the tv mate well done. all the best from scotland :)

[@Nikolaos34]

Chigg - I believe that black rock is manganese deposits, actually fairly common in underground environments. Cool find!

[@melanielessard128]

I died for a minute when the dirt fell on the flashlight and it went dark. Journey to the Center of the Earth!

[@Wvnursey]

Another great hole Chigg! Stay safe!

[@respectanimals2]

Fascinating, love watching these adventures, awesome ⛏😎

[@dannywilliams3928]

That was some pretty awesome video chegg. Thanks for sharing. And that was a great rescue on the turtle very cool. I'm sure he's pretty happy to be out of that cave.

[@larryolson8619]

What a great cave! Thanks Cigg

[@blitzb4]

3:00 claustrophobic level 10 and it only gets worse...

[@michaelws6247]

Will Hornbuckle hell yeah man. Started gettin my blood pumping.

[@ian4481]

Search up the Nutty Putty and tell me what you think about that lol

[@blitzb4]

I can't watch all of that one lol I know the one your talking about...

[@blitzb4]

I can barley stand it lol I want to tell him to stop doing these but he is a big boy lol

[@homgrownbud]

lol thats nothing

[@simonwalters6733]

Love love love the cave vids, moaaaar please

[@nanachick05]

How exciting to be the first to see something like that. Very nice cave.

[@rondathiesen9317]

Very cool cave! Poor little turtle!

[@ruserious7319]

i love the underground adventures! ive slowed my spelunking due to my children so it's always a treat to be able to experience these thrills. never change chigg🖒

[@libbynester1814]

Awe Chigg, what can I say. That was awesome. However, I have came to the conclusion that you may be part groundhog with all of your burrowing instincts and abilities. I appreciate getting to go along for the journey. Thank you.

[@sunshineglendakentucky239]

Wow👍great video but I’m thinking.. omg chig. Get out safe. I love your videos!!!this one made me nervous!🙏

[@onwardsandupwardsrockhounding]

That sinkhole definitely panned out, nice job again. Onwards and upwards my friend!!

[@JanVafa]

Thanks for rescuing the Cave Turtle!!!!

[@DirtDigglerDetecting]

Had some time this morning to get caught up on your videos. Like my Adventure lesson for today i learned. watch for turtles in caves. I love going out and adventure and making videos. Thank you for the continued inspiration. HH James

[@julieheilman2065]

When you took ur helmet off I was freaking out!!!! Thank you for what you do to make this video.

[@jonce6750]

you always make great video's thank you so much .

[@ogbobbydee]

The rock is the Waynesboro Formation. Primarily limey shale, but it has interbeds of limestone in it.

[@redmachine914]

that blue colored rock is beautiful

[@redmachine914]

well it looks blue with the lighting.

[@robertsnyder5149]

That was kool chigger! Find more caves!

[@lisafarr2317]

Brave 2 enter the hole. I would scream just putting my head in there. I will leave it 2 the experts like you n watch from the edge of my seat n keep my eye out for critters n crawlies.

[@pamelasinclair-karney8856]

Great adventure, Very interesting .

[@arthurc1971]

That is amazing...those blue rocks are interesting.

[@debrabrooks6138]

Personally I would be starting up a bucket burgade and start hoisting that loose dirt out but be very careful!!!! Fantastic Find!! 😊

[@jimnorthland2903]

I was thinking of more of a PVC rail system! But yeah, dig it out.

[@debrabrooks6138]

I keep wondering if all that loose dirt could perhaps be hiding more of a deeper passages, bad wording,..I wonder with all the loose dirt gone how deep would the passages be?

[@geoffreyjones2000]

You saved a turtle friend :) They increase the sugar levels in their blood keeping it fluid for winter time. Well done sir. peace

[@jimkey920]

A very nice find a cave of some volume and who knows. The black rock color is most likely Iron Oxide. It would be interesting to know if it is a surface deposition or is actually within the rock. I hope the Box Turtle survived; no telling how long he had been down there. Amazing!

[@depleteduraniumcowboy3516]

That's one lucky turtle! Glad you guys saved it. Interesting rock formations would like to know more about those. Thanks for sharing!

[@Anna-mv4ly]

Thats amazing how that turtle was way down there, I wonder how long he was down there for? Thanks for sharing this video, I'm claustrophobic and I all most had a panic attack , I thought you all might get stuck down there, I'm so glad you all made it out. Great video .

[@NUGGETSHOOTER]

Enjoyed the video Chig....

[@davisdavisdl]

Seriously, that is some dangerous looking material in those holes. You are braver than I. Good luck.

[@SeattleRingHunter]

I had not realized Aquachigger was a spelunker, this obviously wan't his first underground rodeo. Reminds me of caving in Northern CA when I was in college.

[@exploringwithamission]

Cool looking rock colour Great adventure thanks for sharing

[@tacocin]

Did anybody else's heart skip a beat when he knocked the camera over and the screen went black for a second? Geez!!!

[@jenmorricone4014]

Can u say, "Out of your damn minds?" Tempting fate if you ask me.. I guess some people live for the adreneline rush. Godspeed Aquachig.

[@jgalloway2407]

I think the black may be iron that's leaching out of the rock - I've seen a similar looking iron rich crust on sedimentary rocks before.

[@patrickodonovan5066]

Fantastic content. Thanks for uploading this.

[@macdonaldsadler]

Love your videos, and great to see your on history channel over here in blighty.

[@scottsmith4111]

Hey bow a another good video thank you so much for it and thank you for saving that Turtle there he is going to make it now

[@geyotepilkington2892]

I have a box turtle so I was happy to see em saved

[@dmcjr1375]

You guys are nuts! LOL

[@B60IN3]

Why do I watch this stuff? On the edge of my seat and have to remind myself to breath. Don't see how y'all can do it!

[@whodat3750]

Looks like an oil shale. Great video and find.

[@glendasheaffer4459]

I'm glad Mr. Turtle was saved. I couldn't crawl in closed spaces (can't spell the word) but like what you do.

[@curbsidejunkies]

I'm so glad you got into you cave exploration! I've always enjoyed your videos but these are really cool. They are definitely some of my favorite but they give me total anxiety! I've been following your Channel 4 a very very long time. Maybe 8 or 9 years I guess? I bragged to my brother because on my other Channel that I actually started watching you on you actually subscribed to my channel haha! If you're ever in the north Texas area send me an email! Got a few places I'd love to take you metal detecting as well as a pretty cool Cave system! Thanks for years upon years I was genuinely unique and entertaining videos!

[@frankmaxfield7025]

I love the video aqua but I gotta say you guys are brave. The looks of those walls and roof they could collapse in at any time and nobody would ever be able to get to you. I've done my fair share of dumb stuff but I keep my ass out of sink holes lol

[@dyannejohnson6184]

Any ancient volcanic history near by.....looks like an ancient tube. Right Colorado and texture...from the armchair that is!

[@PreacherDigger]

Enjoyed. Thanks for sharing. Hh

[@robertgemski7728]

I would freakin freak out the fact there was 3 of yous at the end there drove me nuts haha

[@beartooth8865]

Fascinating!

[@HellBillyDeluxe]

My claustrophobia sure ticked while watching this one haha!

[@tylerpassannante3868]

Good job saving the turtle. 🐢👍

[@scottytoorottie]

This was a fantastic venture! Awesome video 🤩

[@beepseatsfindingfoodtreasu8756]

A cave expedition turned into a rescue! Well maybe not news worthy but it was to the turtle! Thanks for the video! Beeps.

[@rossgraveley]

Another cool cave to clean out tunnels in then explore it

[@chasetonga]

Well, that was claustrophobic.

[@jimgriffiths9071]

It would be nice to see an actual effort of digging out that system in a multi-part series. This was a good one!

[@Azphreal]

When Chigg was digging did anyone else have the theme from the great escape running through their head?

[@IronClad292]

Sooner or later Chigg, you'll find the right cave that takes you to the center of the earth, complete with giant mushrooms and Dinosaurs !!

[@advenzures]

Great video and awesome adventure. Thank you for sharing.

[@Ellis157]

this is awsome thank you sir

[@Ellis157]

chig you are the man with a big heart thank you sir

[@rjb91366]

Looks like there might just be gold !!

[@brendaproffitt4807]

Wow that's so cool and amazing too see. awesomel job thank you so so much..

[@melissamayeaux6501]

You guys are braver than me !!! Too many places for snakes to hide. Lol

[@williamhernandez.littlebig2530]

Love your videos bro

[@XBLPrinceMell1]

Your videos always make my night 100x better

[@SilverSlayer1971]

sweet find beau..hope you strike it rich..

[@snowballil3133]

Might be greywacke a dark coarse-grained sandstone containing more than 15 percent clay.

[@shewolf5098]

Poor turtle, Hibernation mode must have saved him till you guys came along.

[@HillbillyNitroUSA]

Yep, the further you go the tighter it gets, the harder it is for me the breath. I can't handle tight spaces... 😨

[@diggitallindadirt3283]

I explored a lot of caves here in Tennessee when I was a kid I crawled quit away underground bu now it gives me the heebeejibbies to even think what I did but would not do it now lol

[@sr.chinta-louisetorpey5566]

Chigg I'm always so scared for you when you go into caves. And this is a sink hole which means, it's not finished sinking maybe. Wait, where's the ropes!

[@gogetter8866]

It was exciting! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@anonymouse7074]

"turtle soup tonight?" LMAO

[@WanderIndiana]

Thank you, to all, for rescuing the turtle and taking us along. What fun!

[@thecopperminer6175]

I'm to afraid of being buried alive to go exploring underground especially in a hole that has already collapsed. I love your channel tho! Thanks for the great work you do!

[@mikeblock3214]

You guys are crazy..cool but crazy.

[@mudduck754]

Caves, places that when you were a young kid you got in to trouble playing in and or around. But as an adult, older, slower,fatter. Its okay to play in. Is it just me that finds that funny?

[@stoutexpress8952]

WOW no could do buddy!!
