Stone Age Cave still In use today - Thor's Cave

[@suehouston7908]

Love this! You make real the "clan of the cave bear" artistic process. Thank you!

[@jerbear7952]

Fascinating hearing it in your voice. Fear of a cave is perfectly healthy. Good job working through it.

[@bettthompson4733]

Will you are amazing! Thanks for sharing your craft with us. Hope you have a good night and I’ll see you again. TCY PeaceOut 🤟❤️😊

[@crimsondog93]

i cant being to explain how i feel about this... imagining this pagan site and Thor was believed to use this cave.. fills my heart with joy.. thank you Will

[@coinhoover8542]

Oh man ! This is 5 minutes from my house i wpuld of loved come to catch up with you Will! We metal detect on the fields by there. Also I climb in the cave :) thanks great video

[@Quantrills.Raiders]

your fear of cave bears isnt unreasonable, its evolutionary instinct passed on by your ancestors who likely inhabited the same cave!! Its why kids are scared of the dark, very cool to think about

[@a.y.t.a.s.494]

Great flute playing. Very atmospheric

[@kc3718]

the museum up the road in Buxton has loads of carved antler tools found in the locality by local antiquarians such as Thomas Bateman and has a antiquarians study full of mesolithic, neolithic and bronze age goodies. Well worth popping in and seeing.

[@radagastaddams3703]

imagine being in that cave with a fire going. u start playing your music & as u look through the flickering fire light, on the other side of the flames, u see your ancient, ancient ancestor watching & listening. music brings the ages together for a brief moment.

[@clintmarable4087]

Ok Will next video needs to be a Stone Age flute playing tutorial!

[@spikewillow4552]

What an amazing place ! 🖤🤘Thanks for sharing brother

[@elliotepic7081]

Thumbs up for staying and confronting your fear, absolutely beautiful cave and the music transported me there right beside you.

[@elisharead7698]

Wasn't expecting it, but that little song of yours was beautiful. Made my eyes water.

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

I’m pretty crap on the whistle to be honest but the acoustics in the cave were amazing

[@elisharead7698]

@@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival I really enjoyed your ice age is coming video. Looking forward to hearing the end of it!

[@domytar5395]

absolutely brilliant Will Lord. Grendel is a word you dont wont to hear in a cave like that.

[@John-wo5bp]

Oh wow trippy I been there hiking was in 1980s I no clue was stone age i was a weird kid always picking up flint nodules i see a monster bit carried it back to learn how to shape it love stone age and bronze age period 👍🇬🇧🐾🦊

[@karlalton3170]

Was a good guess you was going there 😁😁👍👍

[@me_caveman2540]

(turns corner and suddenly cave bear) keep up the good work Will.

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

😂 that would be an interesting video 😂

[@KathrynLiz1]

One can see why a necklace of deer teeth would be a precious thing indeed because of the hundreds of hours of meticulous work that went into its creation. Such a gift would be one to treasure indeed, and I am sure that back in the Neolithic times that was the case. In some very important ways such technology as the Dremel motor tool has cheapened art of this kind and, while making it more available to more people, has made the artifact less precious in absolute terms, notwithstanding that the spirit in which one makes something with one's own hands to gift to another is the same no matter where in the last several thousand years it was made or how long it took to complete. Such things are truly gifts of love, and confer prestige on those to whom they are given. 🙂

[@stevenkimsey7039]

Cool! Play some Jethro Tull🔥

[@2gpowell]

Hi Will, wow, thanks for taking us along a very mystical place!

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

My pleasure!

[@tectardedprepper8954]

Best lesson learned from the past and from this is patience. In a world of instant gratification , we have lost the truth you find in waiting for something and the joy of receiving and accomplishing it . God Bless You ALL in Jesus Name Amen 🙏

[@jodojodo8558]

The mighty Thor himself would be proud of such a mead hall

[@mattford8499]

🙏 for my Friday gift. Love the outrow ❤️

[@marcterencemckenna]

That is maaaaaad. I saw faces all over those walls naturally occurring in the rock. I dunno if you've ever taken a lot of mushrooms but I can almost invoke that feeling of what it must have been like to trip balls in that cave a 1000 years ago. Craaaazy

[@Traveler13]

Amazing place is Thors cave and its history, I was there last spring and loved it, a flat bit above it ideal for a wild camp with amazing views I thought of trying, in better weather, great film loved it👍

[@hawklord100]

Fascinating Will and a great video, the black Spider illustrates that it is a regular interloper to the cave as it has maintained its black colour for camouflage, I can remember sharing a fridge in a house with students and it wasn't cleaned for nearly three years LOL, and when we went to clean it at the end of our tenure we found Albino Spiders living in the (rather dirty) lettuce bin at the bottom of the fridge which no one had used for the last year as it was so full of 'mess' LOL

[@__--JY-Moe--__]

it's helpful to lean on the facts, when u'r not sure..the black widows here, jump..only if u'r not smiling!!

[@hawklord100]

Watching Will trying to keep his footing on the wet rocks also reminded me when barefooted on the rocks on the sea shore, the bare foot rarely slips, but watch out for the seaweed

[@goodvibrations3802]

Always listen to that gutt feeling, your gutt has its own brain cells, very true listen to it. Always.

[@holyngrace7806]

Excellent!

[@cleoknight9204]

Awesome Will glad to see you awesome trip thanx alot

[@a.y.t.a.s.494]

If you shout/roar in there the echoes go right down the valley. Probably the oldest security system in the uk 😂

[@__--JY-Moe--__]

break out the cedar shavings & tiky torches! good luck with it Will !!

[@Witchyfluff]

Wow, excellent video, 👍❤️

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@SabcatPrinting]

A beautiful place. I was hoping you’d be coming here when you mentioned a road trip! I’ve been a couple of times. One time, darkness came in and the clouds fell.. at one point visibility was so bad I could barely make out my hand at arms length, and we were on the ground above the cave, struggling to find our way back down Young and stupid we were! Take great care there, people.

[@deanekendall545]

awesome recital on your flute Will, the sound was truly worthy of this amazing place. Thank-you for taking this time to share your skills with us. ✌ and salutes from Maureen and I in New Zealand 🇳🇿.

[@roostercogburn597]

Wow That was spiritual !

[@a.y.t.a.s.494]

I didn’t know that about the teeth, I thought grendel was the beast in Beowulf

[@PeacewithGod22]

That is the most beautiful place cave incredible! These videos are amazing thank you so much for creating and sharing!

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

Thanks for watching!

[@robertedwards1416]

Loved the music.

[@garybondurant8097]

Just goes to show that ingenuity existed in the Neolithic for solutions to problems. Thanks for the demo, Will.

[@jillatherton4660]

Ishi used a drill like that to make sockets for his two-piece arrows. 👍

[@Dustin_the_wind]

Thank you, Will.

[@kc3718]

i have a flint core or even deunded axe i found I found near a barrow in Staffordshire, I reckon it;s over 70 miles to the nearest source of the material. It has bulbs of percusion on it .

[@johndalessandro6433]

I really dig your videos . Thanks for showing us your skills! Big respect here from across the pond!

Absolutely splendid presentation Will, one of your best, greetings from dampest Kent

[@josephrobertvanderhoff]

Will ? Where is Thor's cave ? In England ? This was great , thank you for this video .Never allow fear to rule you , or dictate where you wish to go . Fear can also be a sign of wisdom . The level of fear ? Is on the danger we allow ourselves . I Enjoyed your music .

[@argonwheatbelly637]

You look comfortable five and a half thousand years ago. Trading copper with some other tribes for tin.

[@fredrossman1189]

I liked that and it was ironic with the chainsaw in the background. It is a plasure being with you while we approch the reload of the human race with the up and coming micro nova. The skills you are teaching will be picked up sooner because of folk like you. And of course Jean Awl with her books about earths children. I will be going to your web site soon . you have surlly picked my intrest.

[@srrwort5362]

I really enjoyed this video, the effort you put into your video is appreciated, greetings from Mexico

[@garethmarks6016]

Did you just re discover how our ancestors held beads to drill them I wonder. Some one sat in the cave millenia ago doing the same. Thanks Will.

[@redsteadyon]

Hey up Will I wish I knew you were coming over my way I would have asked you to fetch me a small piece of flint, I feel I need to have a piece Ha, Thors Cave one of my favourite places but you must have a look at Arbour Low while your here as your really close, Last time I was there I slept on one of the stones & I was visited by a large Hare in the moonlight a very special moment, Top Man....& if you ever consider sending me a small flint it will be most appreciated.... Ha .....

Amazing amazing cave… and your such a characteristic person you should have played the main character in some movie based in the Stone Age and I would watch it more than once’s for sure haha.. good job on everything you’ve done !! Keep it up

Awesome welcome along

[@bigbasil1908]

You could do with a neolithic jewellers vice for making beads 😛 Edit : Oh nevermind, you had one (the shell with the charcoal pine resin mix)

[@floathouse2]

Hey Will, if Neolithic tool makers could take as much time as necessary to sharpen a stone ax head, and they were acutely aware of the wheel, why wouldn’t they figure out very quickly how to make and dress a grinding wheel and hook it to some kind of foot treadle? It just seems like it wouldn’t be a stretch for folks that worked in stone for very long periods of time. Sand stone seems like it would be quite easy to shape. I’ll bet you could make one as good at stone working as you are. My instinct tells me they probably had a grinding wheel to reduce the many many man hours of dressing axes and knives. I would be interested in your take on the possibility.

[@charleswilliams9647]

very nice demo

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@frankrodriguez9697]

Things in caves can move in the dark, creepy yeah.

[@jodycopeland1]

That looks like it’s slicker than cat crap on a linoleum froor

[@birdshenanigans8506]

Love the flute... seemed like the cave went quieter, like it eased with your presence after playing something so spiritual ❤

[@Tipi_Dan]

Wow.

[@charliebutler5819]

What is the song that you play on the tin wistle ? I love it ! Want to learn it!

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

I just made it up 👍

[@KathrynLiz1]

The thunder god went for a ride Upon his favourite filly. "I'm Thor!" he cried, The horse replied "You forgot the thaddle ...thilly"....

[@jimdownhour5224]

I hoped you awakened some old spirits that needed someone to recognize them.

[@kevinhale9400]

Will, that was such a mournful piece of music. Was it brought on by the atmosphere in the cave?

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

100% mate

[@mark.guitar]

Slippy floor won't have helped with the jitters, Will! You can't run on slippy stuff so the flight response is not available.

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

Now that's a very good point lol

He looks like Thor.

[@petermajor4599]

👋🍀🙏🐿

[@celem1000]

Always wondered how this cave got it's name, I was there in the late 80s. There appears to be no connection whatsoever to the Germanic deity. Indeed, the spelling "Thor" is both Anglo and more recent, his name is Tor in Nordic tongues I wonder.... "Tor" can also be a cliff or tower formation in older British placenames. Maybe

[@twillhizzle44]

What's with the banging in the background?

[@bongofury3176]

I once tried to sleep there...lots of dripping and slipping...Seven Ways Cave above it is the hidden gem.

[@WillLordPrehistoricSurvival]

Yeah I didn’t want to sleep in there either I will go back and look for the seven ways cave

[@FoxtrotYouniform]

[@matthewblazer7932]

No way would i be in there. I tried to sleep in a cave called the chartist cave. I shit my wack and ended up in my bivvy bag on a barrow mound.
