About this cave & expedition:
This is the only tour available of Son Doong Cave by the official tour operator Oxalis Adventure Tours. This cave is located in Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park, Quang Binh, central of Vietnam. This cave has been featured before on CNN, National Geographic, Huffington Post, BBC, ABC News, etc. Imagine trekking straight into the depths of the world’s largest cave which can fit a Boeing 747 flying through the largest passage, on an expedition unlike any other. Son Doong Cave is a masterpiece of nature with otherworldly landscapes, enormous stalagmites, and statuesque stalactites - hanging from the ceiling and rising from the ground like an alien species. The real jungle inside the cave will amaze you in every way, while misty clouds envelope the scene. The fossil passage will allow you to understand the formation of this ancient limestone.
Alan Walker's hit song "Heading Home" was also filmed in Son Doong Cave, Vietnam, and was produced by MER and directed by Kristian Berg.

I found out about this cave from a Joe Rogan podcast. Anybody else? They mentioned that this wasn’t even discovered until 1995? That’s crazy!

Yea literally 5minutes ago I watched Rogan Shorts then put it in KZbin haha let's see what it's like 👍

Same same…I’m definitely thinking of going. It’s only $3000 to go through it when it’s in season….I’ve climbed some mountains in the alps and in southern Germany Bavaria. Been all through Europe. Planning some places in Africa as we speak. I’ve done like 40 of the 50 US states. Been all through the Middle East. I’ve yet to be in Asia tho. This seems like a perfect way to see part of Asia for the first time.

For them to state that the first person ever to set foot in this cave did so in 1995, that's an pretty audacious claim to make. How the hell would they know!? There's so much hubris packed into that statement.

[@new002one]

Wow youre triggered by that? Reasoning is the KEY here. Without advance climbing gears and expertise, do you think anyone can just drop hundred of feet into the cave and start exploring until the end of the cave? Do you think any locals can do that? These people are all experts in cave exploring and they still had a difficult time if not planning carefully.

I think I saw this cave on a South Korean Tv Show called "(?) Jungle". They were trying to catch food in the opening of the cave. It looked exactly like this video. The show travels to different places and I know they were in Vietnam. Yeah, I think they repelled down a big hole with birds in it.

[@Skank_Hunt42]

The local Hmong people that use to live near the cave before the Vietnam war shared stories about how the massive cave use to be home to a small group of shape shifting creatures. They told stories of some villagers who survived encounters with the shape shifters. Everyone who survived thier encounters tell a very similar story. They talk about encountering other villagers deep into the jungle while on a hunting and gathering trip. They say the shape shifters would look very similar to someone they know from thier own village but there's subtle differences that's off about the person like their ears are small or the persons forehead is a little bigger or thier fingers are really short with 7-8 fingers on each hand. Also the villagers speech is different such as a slightly higher voice. The real scary detail is what they say when they talk to you. They refer to humans as a cow or cattle. They would say, "how are you living today cow" or "are you traveling with a group of cattle". No one is sure what happened to the missing villagers that encounter the shape shifters in the past. The ones who survived said if you come across someone that looks familiar but greets you by calling you a cow with a higher pitch voice with an empty stare, run and don't stop or look back until you come to an open feild. Only then you can stop to catch your breath but as soon as you catch your breath, you need to continue running until you reach the safety of the village. Another horrifying detail about the shape shifters is that they can't bend at the knee so if you are being pursued by a shape shifter, run up hill........

“Pulling your weight” is a colloquialism meaning doing your fair share. If they each did more than what they all greed to, it means they achieved more/overcame more than they thought they would. That’s evolution, bud. They even explained the difference between the trees (same DNA, different look) and the bugs (likely different DNA). That’s why she took a sample…. to test it.

[@jasonbourne1596]

@@Oozes_Dark The weight being pulled had a set amount, it's 100 percent. It's literally impossible to pull more than your share of that weight until someone doesn't pull their share. It's not evolution, evolution is BS psuedo science. It's adaptation. If you get locked in a basement and don't see no sun for a year, you'll be white as a sheet too, that's adaptation. Stay out in the sun you'll be red or brown, but eventually brown unless you're already black, then you'll just get blacker. It's adaptation not evolution.

Maybe climbing through and accurately surveying a relatively unmapped cave takes expertise. Maybe there’s no way to get to those holes without damaging the environment and lowering supplies from them would risk another collapse. Maybe their time in the cave was also limited due to flood risk.
