My dad is a level 4 dive master. With over 3000 dives logged. He was a commercial diver for 10 years. We go fishing and we have been in the worst kinds of weather (I'm talking 7 meter waves once in a 6 foot seafarer). he grew up around the water so nothing much fazes him. He's had nitrogen narcosis plenty of times and due to he's high drug tolerance he can handle it pretty well. I asked him the other day if he was ever interested in cave diving. He said "as competent as I am a diver im not interested in that". I asked why? He said "it's too easy to get stuck or disoriented due to being silted out where you can't see anything plenty of things can go wrong". I asked "does it scare you" he said "oh yeah"

[@waterlinestories]

I’m not a fan of closed in spaces. Not full blown claustrophobia, but you’re not going to find me crawling around a tight passage in a dry cave. Forget underwater. Now I’ll take a ROV and do it.

[@waterlinestories]

I'm probably in the same scale as you. I Prefer wrecks but I'm intrigued by caves although I've avoided my entire life. I would like to do some of the safer cave dives. All relative I guess.

[@dianebrooks1859]

During our advanced open water class we were going through emergency protocols and such. We had a discussion about lots of survival rate statistics. Our dive master said, "Do you want to come back alive? Then never go cave diving." That always stuck with me though it does look cool haha

[@Arieskie]

As a CCR cave diver, I can definitely say that training, and following your training, is critical. I’ve been in silt-outs. There is specific training as to how you navigate them (never let go of your line, tap diver in front of you if team diving, turn your light inward, etc). The biggest problem with silt-outs if you know what you are doing is that they can slow you down, which messes with deco time/gas supply.

[@IronCascade]

Its bizarre how impotently watching your friends make poor decisions that you physically cannot talk them out of, then having to write them off as dead because you can't wait around for them to come back anymore without running out of air and dying yourself is something you just have to deal with in diving.

[@waterlinestories]

Well certain types of diving yes. Cave diving like this when it's poorly planned.

[@Arieskie]

Recreational divers don’t face these situations, and most technical/cave divers don’t either. There’s a reason these deaths make the news; they happen very infrequently.

[@cdk1016]

Diving underwater is such an unnatural environment. With breathing being so crucial for humans to remain alive, diving is not for the faint of heart.

Yup. That's why you have a dive master involved with a safe dive. Without a dive master there a very good chance that an accident could happen. Gotta have a plan set and then FOLLOW said plan as set forward by the dives master.😐

As someone who grew up in the area and studied geology, I'd love to talk more about the spring/aquifer. Rather it's a massive limestone structure (Cow Creek limestone), that as the graphic shows, lies underneath another massive limestone structure (Glen Rose Limestone) with a glauconite layer sandwiched between (Hensel, this is the one that likely formed all the gravel in the story) . The top layer contains the Edwards aquifer that feeds all the waterways in the Austin area. But as stated, the second layer is another aquifer that is compressed and creates artesian wells, meaning water comes up out of the ground in springs absolutely everywhere. Both layers have hugely extensive cave structures carved out by the aquifers which also leaves behind many aquatic lakes and rivers inhabited by blind creatures like salamanders, crayfish, catfish, and many more that are localized sometimes to a single spring. There are other species that have only been documented once or twice ever, completely by accident as we drill wells for water. But given that there are thousands of caves in this portion of Texas alone, it's possible these species are thriving right beneath our feet.

[@kharmachaos667]

That's super cool! I studied biology and would love to see more of these blind cave dwelling critters, the odds of siscovering new species is incredibly high. Would I go and dove for them, though? .... nope. I have both a fear of caves AND diving. 🤣

Being underwater and having something above your head to keep you from surfacing as you instinctually try to get to the surface to fill your lungs with air only to just get giant lungfuls of water sounds extremely terrifying , anyone that has tried to surface in the swimming pool only to come up under a pool float and having your life flash in front of you thinking you are gonna die for those couple seconds can understand the fear lol

[@ablemagawitch]

It is far worse, when you shine your light upwards underwater, the exhaust air from scuba will create air pockets that reflect your light like surface does. So you can mistake an old scuba exhaust air collection air bubble for the way to the surface. Air bubbles may run along the roof surface upwards but that is not the way to where you came into that chamber from the entrance. Cave Diving is a very technical skill, which takes the vast discipline of scuba diving and then adds no visibility risks. All you have that yellow string to follow back, if you lose it, you're dead.

Or you're in the ocean and get hit by a wave. You're going up and get hit by an undertow wave. The water feels like a brick wall - you somersault ....

Ok, story time: Some years back, I discovered that there was a dive shop in my town, and decided that I would finally learn to dive once I was done paying off my car, about a year off. That summer Some friends and I were swimming in the south fork of the Yuba river, which was at an ideal height. While swimming upstream and up the little waterfalls between pools I was in a faster flowing section with a spot where water was falling of a rock forming a sort of low head dam. I was unaware of the dangers of that type of spot, and swam towards it hoping to find some handholds to just pull myself up and over with. Two things added up to create a problem. First there was more water moving through that spot that I realized, creating a stronger current in a small area, and second that the flow had dug out all the gravel below. What happened was I was shoved under by a surprising force of the falling water, and at the same time my foot found a gap between some large underwater rocks. My foot went in no problem, but the water continued to push me down, and turn me around, so my foot became stuck in a kind of "twist lock" situation. I found myself on my back with one leg twisted painfully beneath me, and the falling water acting like a large hand pushing down on my chest. I could ALMOST push up against it, but because of the way my leg was twisted I couldn't get any leverage. I had fortunately held a good breath before my head went under, so I wasn't immediately panicked, but quickly realized that I might be in some real trouble. I tried to move to either side to get out from under the flow, but just couldn't do it the way I was pinned. As the panic started to creep up, I made the decision that my best hope might be that if I could break my ankle it might allow me to pull my foot out, and tried yanking and twisting to do just that, but again, I couldn't even get the leverage for it. Finally I just reached my hand up, hoping it would break the water or be visible under fall, and that my GF had been close enough behind me to notice it. I sat there reaching my hand up for approximately 3000 years, when suddenly someone grabbed my hand and pulled. My leg twisted painfully, but my face just broke the surface enough to get a breath. I just shouted "Don't let go!" gripping what was indeed my GF's hand with all I had. She thought I was goofing around, but pulled anyway because, as she later said, "I just wanted a kiss". With her pulling me out from the flow and providing an anchor point I was able to work my foot free from what wasn't even a tight space, just and unfortunately shaped one. After explaining to her that she had literally just saved my life she said it hadn't even occurred to he I was in trouble, as she hadn't seen when I went under and didn't know how long I had been down. After collecting myself and being mostly uninjured (minus a tiny bit of psychological scarring)I swam around in the parts of the pool where the waster was slow moving until I found a couple of the largest rocks I could move to that spot and tossed them in to cover up that hole. I was surprised when I moved over to it and discovered just how deep it was. Had there been no current coming off the fall, I could have just stood there in waist deep water. Hearing the part of the video with the diver pinned by the gravel brought all of that back in Technicolor clarity. The point of all this is that I was just swimming in a calm river, not more than a hundred feet under water in a pitch black cave, and I still almost lost. I love the water, having grown up 20 minutes from the ocean I have always respected, but not feared the sea. I guess I hadn't yet learned proper respect for rivers. I never did go to dive school, though if I did, I know that caves would never be on my list. Even without being a diver my stupid experience taught me a few things, like the importance of a dive buddy (or river buddy), the importance of taking a moment to THINK before doing a thing, and to be aware that confidence is great, but nature (and physics) don't care at all about your confidence. Accidents can, and will happen. The better prepared you are, the more likely you are to get out of a situation when the unexpected happens. Thus ends my 'Older person shouts "Be Careful!"' message.

I didn't know that diving into an aquifer was even possible, but apparently it is. Since aquifers are generally public drinking water supplies and it's really not ok to leave a dead body in water, and because even experienced, qualified cave divers die in these dives, it seems like a deadly and entirely unnecessary gamble for the divers, the body recovery team AND the communities dependent on that water. And all because someone decided to have an incredibly dangerous lark.

I did some regular caving in my teens and 20s. Explored the most popular caves in the TAG area. (Where Tenn, Alabama, Ga meet) I swam in a flooded cave once, and crawled through a riverbed cave with only 6 inches of air at the ceiling. The only reason that the idea of scuba diving in a cave doesn't terrify me, is because I know that I will never do it. I'm glad I'm an old man who's most dangerous activity now is kayaking in daylight on a placid lake with multiple other people around while wearing a life jacket.

[@erictaylor5462]

"You can't keep us out." That may be true, but the laws of physics can make sure you pay for the entry with your lives. Stockton Rush defied all the experts in his dive in a machine that could not withstand the pressure of what he was doing with it. He said, "Safety is a waste of time." Well, he's not saying that now, is he? The sad part is, neither are the four people who trusted him enough to put their lives in his hands.

Maybe someone should consider using remote control drones with manipulator arms? Like what they use to explore things like the titanic, or other deep wrecks?

[@waterlinestories]

The ones small enough to fit only recently went into production but then small also means they don't have the power to dig into a hole like that. So yes and no.

[@medea27]

The ROVs they use to find wrecks have a cable that tethers them to a surface ship, and unfortunately they don't do well in enclosed spaces... that cable can easily get snagged & the ROV can't free itself, and they are _way_ too expensive to risk losing. Caves are also bad news for anything remote controlled as the signal won't travel through rock & you get lots of reflection/echo off every surface.

[@IditaBugger]

I think the helpful part of this for people reading this who don't dive and want to, or are qualified in Open water and "thinking" about cave diving: Ensure your CAVE CERTIFIED. Any other dive certificate does not make you cave certified. I don't know if these 2 were cave certified or how many tanks of the correct mixture of gases they had on. !!!~Yes expert Cave Divers have died~!!!. You should NEVER ever take your gear off and/or go in backward thru a small opening. Doesn't matter if you see others doing it. Taking any gear off increases your chances of something going wrong. **Taking gear off should be left to the Divers who are qualified cave Mappers which is altogether different than Recreational cave diving.

[@waterlinestories]

[@pizzlerot2730]

If they only had one flashlight each and no line, then no, those chuckleheads were absolutely not cave certified. Probably just basic open water, if that.

Fascinating, very well researched, well presented and so much detail. Dibble is a hero.

[@VerninTheRat]

I feel like some of these cave divers that strive for absolute danger, are literally dancing with death, and they know it. It's a waltz of veritable insanity, in my honest opinion. I have always been fascinated by the psychology of such cave divers, as there are numerous stories of things going very bad, very quickly. It's good that the bodies were indeed eventually discovered - but another part of me gets a bit annoyed thinking about the decisions some of these people make; what is to gain, versus what is to lose? Anyone else feel similarly on such matters? I guess I should consider myself lucky to not have ever had such an intense desire for an apparent adrenaline rush. A desire so immensely powerful, that I need to put my life in peril (and possibly rescuer's lives) just for a rush and the ability to say "I did that."

[@waterlinestories]

That’s exactly the allure. They want to get to the edge and come back to say, I survived! The problem is not knowing where the edge is but still believing you do.

[@israelCommitsGenocide]

those types of people are narcissists, they are simply incapable of caring how they effect other people.

[@VerninTheRat]

@@waterlinestories Yes, I must say I agree with this assessment of the psychological reasons for such acts. And I don't really condemn anyone for living such a lifestyle - It's just in stories like the one above, that you realize how many people are in that ripple-effect, when things do go past the edge. The family, friends, other divers, etc. But the one thing we can take from these occurrences is establishing a strong foundation of a sense of reality for ourselves, when doing potentially life-threatening feats. See, I used to do a lot of prospecting in Colorado, USA. The terrain was insane and required a lot of skill to get to the raw topaz we were in search of. (A lot of rappelling, free-climbing, bouldering) I'll try and abridge this as much as possible: But once we took a highly dangerous route to go to an unseen area for us. Foreboding rocks that had to be traversed carefully, very limited routes to get to the designated area, etc. (the fall would have been one in which you would wish to die from, even if you did survive.) We get to the spot and this storm just rustles up out of nowhere. Moving fast, with lightning and thunder - Now, we are drenched in rain and both my mining partner and I knew, we had to back-track; and fast! So going up was easier, now we are going down and the rocks are soaked in rain. Didn't bring our climbing rope either, because we were idiots that day and just felt so confident. "We got this man. Mind over matter, right?" (Of course we did not anticipate this storm to move over so fast either. Kind of a freak storm, that wasn't even predicted on radar prior to our planning that day out.) Anyways - I will Never forget hanging on to the side of that cliff, shaking and getting pumped to make the last maneuver. One that would get me to a comfortable situation for the rest of the traversal back down. I had to reach across a gap, and pray to whatever god that is listening for it to go well. I would have tumbled hundreds of feet, into pulp, had I fallen. It was a true leap of faith, as I had to throw my body weight over the gap, grab a hold of this rock and hope my foot didn't slip. My friend has already done it, and he's shaken up from it. I remember he was just gleaming at me, eyes-wide, whispering: "Come on man, you gotta do it. It's our only way down and after this we are set" We made it down and ran down the less rocky section of this mountain to the car. But we both learned a valuable lesson that day: We stepped over the edge and just happened to be lucky enough to survive. That time. And I never put myself in a life-threatening situation like that again. The feeling that you are having to make a 50/50 shot; "Do I die today, or will I live through this?" all from an actually avoidable situation was something I'll never forget. It's something I am thankful for; The whole event, I mean. Perhaps a wake-up call from the heavens. So I can understand how we can get into these situations, where we've just gone too far. And that's why the suspense of these diving videos you share are just on a whole other level for me. Because you are out of your element, so to speak, to begin with. And I dunno if it's really true, but I've heard that we currently know more about space than the actual depths of Earth's oceans currently. Which, if true, is a testament for their inhospitable nature for most non-aquatic species.

[@VerninTheRat]

@@israelCommitsGenocide I think in a lot of cases, that is certainly the case. It's why part of me gets a bit frustrated to see someone risk their lives to such a degree, for that rush; When they've got so many people that would be absolutely devastated if they did in fact perish. But I shared a story, somewhat similar, from my youth that you can see if you want. It's a reply to Waterline Stories from the original comment I made here. Because I was thinking about it, and then I remembered a time in which a mining partner and I did something in which we could have died from. All from just wanting to push the limits, I suppose. So even I have done something life threatening. But I did not continue such endeavors in the least. And I think some of the people we are really thinking of in such a discussion, are those who cheat death and go back in for another round.

[@samsalamander8147]

It reminds of of the free form rock climbers or base jumpers. There was one kid who was a free form climber who wore a parachute and would climb way high up so if he fell he could parachute down. He ended up dying in a wing suit accident with his dog on his back his partner he flew with crashed then he flinched and crashed himself, he was pretty famous in the climbing world for climbing and wing suiting with his dog.

I'm a Floridian. I've spent quite a lot of time in or around water. We moved down here from ATL when I was in 3rd grade. Before we moved down here, 1 of my "adult" cousin's, who was waiting for a notification that he had been accepted into Medical School to become a Dr, went cave diving. He never came home. He was diving with some "friends"; he had decided to go back in....they let him go alone. When his body was recovered, he looked like something had attacked him. We believe that he might have done the damage to himself when he ran out of O2. His acceptance letter to Med School came the day he died. He had been my favorite cousin. We got to spend a lot of time with him the previous year, because my mom had spent more time IN the Hospital than out of it. It was very sad. His dad was a Dr, and, his mom was an RN.
