good stuff! Good bit of threading, the rov through those supports !

[@VikingExploration60]

Great find with the two carts on the flooded level, and were those modern plastic bags down there.

[@davidseale716]

Glad your back, have missed your mine content

[@RonaldFeller-r5h]

👷🧔 pretty good controlled the wired Submarine , nice Videopart with IT ! Thanks for publishing the Video 👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@Mick_English]

Welcome back chaps. Been really looking forward for another upload. Happy New Year 👍🏻

[@milwaukeeroadjim9253]

Good video. Thanks from Illinois, USA

[@PhilipMurphyExtra]

Let's go, Now time for Lost Mines

[@W4iteFlame]

Oh, it was just ROV. Good you were safe

[@deepwoodguy2]

Turn on cc in the last part of video...they were having audio problems......going where no man has gone in 100 years.........thanks

[@colinburleigh]

Good to have you back; great ROV in spite of the problems; enjoying the book. I look forward to the slate mine.

[@andywithers592]

I missed the first time you went there. Those wagons are amazing. Just imagine the world events that have happened since these mines were abandoned. Fascinating stuff as ever, great to see you guys back underground.

[@mekanyca]

Wow nice !!

[@paulcooper9135]

Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

[@DavidRoberts01341]

Fascinating to see what's at the bottom of the flooded part of the Skipway. I was down there a couple of weeks ago, standing at the bottom of the pitch and wondering what was in the water below.. Thanks for taking the time to chat and sign my copy of the Welsh Potosi book at the end of the day in October (my other trip down the Skipway last year). The book is great: packed with information and enjoyable to read. David Roberts (not the brewer from Aberystwyth!)

[@G.C-oi3fy]

Once again a brilliant video! Thanks guys!👍

[@misterp158]

Good stuff, Happy New Year and thanks for sharing

[@TheMetalDetectingChannel]

Great vid lads, couple of scarey moments with the ROV 😅

[@alanpurdy703]

I wonder if the merky water was caused by the volume of storm water going through the mine .Great video as always .cheers Alan .

[@RonaldFeller-r5h]

A broken beerbottle ? Maybe an placed Product advertising at this Video 😂👍 , Just fun !

[@derekp2674]

Well it wasn't Purple Moose...

[@cliveruffle6016]

Happy New Year, lads! Nice to see you out and about again. Also glad the ROV is OK. Regards to Lois.

[@Luminoussound2024]

Fantastic ROV once again and say if u did get stuck what would u have to do ? Loved seeing those ore carts again , it's history all over again 🙌🏻

[@andrewfindlay9099]

Believe Gly gave you a mention on A & forgotten places on his explore of the Swastika mine

[@haraldclark6206]

Brilliant work, beautiful video of the wagon underwater just sitting there on the tracks! Shame the one level was so cloudy but well done saving the ROV adventurer! Sometimes seems like you need a button on there that just slows all the propellors down by a half or more so you can get a bit more finer control. Great work!

[@derekp2674]

Thanks very much. Some great footage, not least those wagons. Good to learns that you kept safe and also managed to recover the ROV.

[@CambrianLady]

Good to see you back for the new year. Just started reading the Welsh Potosi book (treat to me and OH for Christmas - fascinating read!)

[@sallyohalloran6650]

Love your work. It's opened my eyes to these Cambrian mountains and valleys we live in. I am looking around the hills with different eyes! So interesting. Thank you

[@kevinbrennan2004]

Good effort boys. You two, take us to places, no-one explores. Thoroughly entertaining.

[@johnclare1728]

Really great explore and also great to have you all back. Totally enjoyable. Thank you for all the work to bring this to us. Take care and have an amazing New Year.

[@VikingExploration60]

Been in this mine many times but have never been down the skipway, hope deep does it go beyond the flooded section

[@Busted-Buzzard]

Thanks from Colorado for another great video 👍

[@KERNOW08]

Good to see you back. Great footage from the skipway! Pity the level was so misty, but interesting all the same. Happy New Year!

[@michael-girard]

Great video! My exploration buddy Mike Sandone and I had two close calls with our ROV while on an expedition to a cave in Mexico. The worst of the two incidents, we had to leave the ROV in the passage powered down. The next day we returned with a Macgyver like tool a local made for us that was able to free the ROV. We lost a third of a tether in the process.

[@RonHelton]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@OreExplorer]

Shows how dangerous diving these places is. Top video folks. Are the pipes on the wall for drainage or for water powered tools?

[@derekp2674]

Or for compressed air?

[@OreExplorer]

@@derekp2674 I meant that but some reason wrote water haha. Cheers

[@derekp2674]

@@OreExplorer You're welcome. Ioan's books include many photos of these old mines and also explain a lot of the equipment that was used both above and below ground.

[@leonvanheerden9174]

The murkyness ... indicative of a recent rockfall ?

[@danosmixedgrill6067]

Hi, Ive recovered the lost audio from this video. Its a bit hissy but surprizingly good, can clearly hear all said. I can send it to you if you like. Cheers Daniel.

[@MrHTCLover]

As long as you both remember who you were when you started and take notice of small changes in your behaviours looking into the camera remember there's a lot more viewers now who are very observant like a hall of school kids on lunch break between lessons. Nice hair cut by the by.
