The final claustrophobic squeeze

[@BetsyJFonz]

“I can’t actually fit that” is caver for “this is terrible…try it!”

[@EvenDarker]

I still haven't made that squeeze. It's just a little too rugged and I always forget my sliders because it's so far in the cave. Plus it's wet, my job is to kind of soak up the water.

Thanks Calvin and Jacob it’s not just the caving anymore I come back for the two of you doesn’t matter what you do

[@cind_h_er5717]

Same here. Though seeing stuff like lava tree mold caves, and learning about them from Calvin, is incredible.

[@MrHolidayz]

"watch out, they just put that there." - Most underrated joke of the year.

[@EvenDarker]

Thank you for noticing.

[@jefffitz5242]

Thank you for sharing these exciting videos. Crazy how they almost look man made. You and Jacob are awesome.

[@attrition71]

Hes growing up so fast

[@macg3949]

"Watch out, they just put that there" love it!. My usual comeback, "we'll have that removed". Absolutely hilarious. Thanks so much for sharing, stay safe and have fun exploring!

[@EvenDarker]

Thank you for noticing that.

[@holdupits420]

This is crazy. You guys do something I could never do

[@CatholicSister]

Would really like to see more of that cave. It is beautiful.

[@RyanLittle-yp1or]

Watching your videos has helped with my claustrophobia. You guys are awesome!

[@Hypoksi]

The last still picture is so good.

[@ryanclausen]

I genuinely enjoy watching your adventures and with your happy go lucky attitude towards life, it helps shed light into the dark world of the underground. Figuratively speaking, what's underneath all of us? Who are we truly on the inside? What are we passionate about? The adrenaline you must feel when making it through a squeeze is likely unparalleled. You have found your passion and you actively seek and attain it! How many others can say the same? I watch your videos with my 7 year old daughter and she loves em'! I'm going to take her to an open air cave to "dip her feet in the water" of exploring our earth and what lies beneath our feet. I appreciate all that you do, I wish you the best in life, and thank you for producing such quality/unique/raw/informative/comical/terrifying/exciting/inspiring/wholesome content. We live once in this world and you fine gentlemen have found a way to live your lives to the fullest extent in your passions and desires to explore the unknown. While exploring that unknown, I bet you have discovered more of who you are on the inside (perhaps while simultaneously inside mother earth). Congratulations in finding success in life through your own terms. You are inspirational characters and I find these videos heartfelt/genuine and sincerely moving to witness.

[@EvenDarker]

Thank you so much for all the kind words. We do think about it philosophically as well... Shining light weather is only darkness... That kind of thing. I also enjoy the parallel of moths. Which, as Caterpillars, bury themselves under ground and then come out able to fly.

[@ryanratcliff2548]

Caves are fascinating. You just never know what’s around the corner

[@soniadelgado9643]

Thats beautiful inside some of the caves are breathtaking 😍 inside but im very claustrophobic so i will stick to your videos instead of trying myself ❤ thank you for your videos you both are awesome and your father ❤

[@michaellupton7260]

Jacobs not as small as he once was at one time he would have squeezed through with no problems 😁 be safe guys

[@david.9633]

Thank you for the new video, guys

[@sebberex-qs7ed]

i must say that i have been loving all the videos and have been wanting to try it out myself. So i did, a small cave but super cool. Will definitely explore more of them, an amazing new hobby

[@EvenDarker]

That terrific. I'm glad you're having fun.

[@vikingjohn9813]

Thank you for another awesome episode, like I said last time I did caving in the British army and it's a solid no from me lol keep up the hard work guys

[@Stenko222]

I love the teamwork. Great content! ❤

[@cavemanjacob]

Thank you

[@navydogsadventures3500]

This was a nice lava tube. Quite the amazing hike in that one. Too tight in that one spot for me, though.

[@robertleighton8525]

Love that very last still shot in shadow!

[@brenttm3907]

Awesome guys!!!🎉🎉🎉

[@ehsanl8594]

I'm glad I quit caving since the day I was born

[@Stenko222]

I loveeee this Less chance of spiders in this one? Lol

[@jimmywilson8134]

Thank you both for a nice relaxing wholesome video. Been watching you guys for years and you never disappoint or disrespect. Keep on caving my friends and may Jesus keep you safe.

[@EvenDarker]

Wholesome horror!

[@joeynessily]

Cold, wet, can’t breathe, choking …. Etc… what a nightmare. Do people do this for the adrenalin bursts from being trapped?

[@EvenDarker]

I do it strictly for leisure

[@kennyrogersfan]

​@@EvenDarkerachso, deswegen 👍

[@Silentsash]

In the title you put “final”. Does that mean you’re done?

[@billsanders9387]

We are never done.

[@TommyLawson-yc3ru]

Ive recently discovered youre channel and i absolutely love watching your vids! I believe that this is my 4th one to watch but the 2nd time ive heard you say "scan"....is that for future mapping? Sorry im such a greenhorn..stay blessed fellas!

[@EvenDarker]

Yeah, it's just a modern way of mapping. The technology is not completely ready for market. There are tools which can be used to scan objects using lidar and photo based imagery. I use mind to scan the interior of caves and then convert it to a 2D map. The technology may be complicated, but the scanner isn't. You just point it and walk around slowly... And it makes the map on its own.

[@TommyLawson-yc3ru]

@EvenDarker awesome sauce! That's double cool! Some of those places are way too tight of a squeeze for me,but for some reason I can't stop watching them! Lol have a good one and stay blessed!

[@iTzShakenJoE]

I was suppose to go spelunking this weekend, but I canceled. go figure someone actually got stuck, and the cave closed.... I'm 300lbs ... so the guy was slightly bigger than me..

[@daklr2501]

they do recommend a much more wiry build for squeezing through caves. I couldn't imagine even trying the risk if I weighed that much!

[@SedatedandRestrained]

2:28 "Watch out, they just put that there" is the dry humor I'm here for

[@EvenDarker]

Thank you for noticing!

[@rudyschurmann6211]

It's no longer the same as when you were a little teenager. It just gets better and better. I mean getting old. LOL this is indeed a large cave

[@Couchintheclouds]

We need find some of these on mars or the moon to help astronauts survive the extra radiation

[@joshyml1]

You would be a good Indiana Jones, there should be some treasure at the end of these caves,

[@levimerenciano]

Weasley from HP turning cave explorer

[@RocoPwnage]

Out of curiosity, how many red hoodies do you own?

[@EvenDarker]

Around one per cave.

[@tyburvandeezo8218]

How how how

[@LegitLord2000]

R u never scared of the ceiling caving in?

[@EvenDarker]

Nope.

[@4IndieForever]

Boys are back! Watching the littler one grow into a man before our eyes i have a question for Jacob.. How does it feel to become bigger and noticing caving is getting more difficult/challenging, is it more rewarding or does it just suck? Thanks for the videos guys!

[@EvenDarker]

Im your huckleberry -Jacob

[@4IndieForever]

@@EvenDarker F yeah!! Rock on!

[@MidnightatMidian]

Have you considered using drones to reach some interesting never ever visited caves?? With all your explorations and experience with caves, I'm pretty sure you know some caves that might be interesting...

[@EvenDarker]

We're so good at guessing what's on the other side of a small passage, we don't really need to attempt very often to see what's on the other side.

[@biffm.2806]

Jacob seems like he got 2 ft taller and 5 yrs older over the last year 😂

[@EvenDarker]

Literally has.

[@Nova_Scotia_Adventurer]

Be fun as hell but clothes must get eaten alot in that rock. I have a nylon cave suit that protects from that thank God

[@EvenDarker]

Yes, it's about one set of clothes per caving adventure.

[@bananahairgang7431]

is this the tightest cave you've ever been in? if not tell me what it is plz

[@EvenDarker]

That's a very difficult thing to describe. I'm currently working in a hole in a cave that i've been in for 10 days that I cannot get through. So it's currently the tightest since I can't get through it. But eventually I will get through it. It's more fun to tell you some of the easy caves. Hell hole was one of the easiest caves I've ever been in. I've always imagined nutty putty would be very similar.

[@iansmith321]

Hopefully we will get to see this on KZbin one day ​@@EvenDarker
