[@ahrukin3794]

awesome stuff once again! you should really wakermark your videos tho so even if ppl steal parts if it , it will always say caveman hikes somewhere on the screen .

[@CalvinHikes]

Yeah but I don't want to. I don't wanna have to change my life and art because somebody else is a thief. They can lie and cheat and steal and be lazy and I will just keep having a good time. In the end, we'll all sit down and take an account. And then we'll see. Plus unless you water market right in the middle, they will just crop it out. And then not only are they stealing your stuff, but they are giving it an ugly presentation. You can't win the short game. And that's okay, too we're playing the long one.

@@CalvinHikes ya thats very true they will just crop it out somehow. maybe even something small lick a sticker on ur helmet or shirt.

Thank you for doing this; Although I never would, I do believe we need a human presence in even the most harsh, remote and foreboding locations, from the most open space to the most confined, if not for any other reason than just to prove to ourselves what we are capable of overcoming.

You do what you do very well.

Caves are not common around here. I will scan and send you the article I have if you give me your email address some how. I wish someone would contact the homeowner and try to explore it for them.

[@cyrinix]

i am terrified of small spaces yet i still watch your vids. all you guys & gals got some big cojones! question: do you guys take a deep look into a tunnel you're trying to shimmy down through first? to make sure you're able to turn around to get out?

[@billsanders9387]

As best as we can, but it’s not always possible. We can back out if necessary. We never do tight passages without someone nearby to help in case we get stuck.

[@rafungafunga]

Man, you should go to the Gruta do Carimbado (stamped's Cave) in Minas Gerais, Brazil. No one could get to its end. I've been there once, and I know that a guy like you can get much further on.

[@Llama-xx4bo]

I've only been caving once. I went thru some stuff that you had to crawl but nothing tight that would cause you to struggle. Cave was under a neighborhood in knoxville,TN I'd be curios to see if someone has mapped it before. Where can I find these maps?

I don't mind being in a tight space. The thing that really gets me anxiety up is talking or yelling while in a tight space and just hearing the hard instantaneous bounce back of the sound.

Question? How long do your flashlights go for? For sure you have a lot of back up. And how do your caving lasts in a tour in and out?

Depend on which light. My basic light will last a couple hours per battery. And I carry enough light to stay underground for 15 days. Caving expeditions last from a couple minutes to a couple days. There's no real average but maybe a couple of hours?

We're on the rescue call list. And we do a lot of research projects either directly or indirectly with the government and other agencies. Sometimes it's boring like counting bats. Sometimes it's interesting like testing equipment or technology some company thinks they might use on mars. 99.9% of cave rescues simply involve the one super easy public cave we have. So it's pretty boring. Somebody will twist their ankle and just sit there and give up.
