We are on the beach together: me: tiki tac? me: or a xanax?

Stunning and not so Brave

@@parrotpirate9648 always a xanax. so I can die in a cave all barred out and completely forget basic shit like a working oxygen tank

I have shingles right now. I feel so much better after watching it!

🤣🤣

@@baddie1shoe damn how did it go with the shingles? I had it once. Was not a fun experience.

@@dawgpost90 I thought it was gone but then it hurt for a month. I made it through :) thanks.

@@baddie1shoe wait til you have full on herpes... It's just as bad !

Yup! Been there a few times!

@@donraptor6156 Sorry I had to laugh at your comment. When you say you've been there a few times, do you actually mean you've been in an underwater cave, lost, without lights and little air? A few times? I'm sorry, but you'd be dead. It's not even a question of if. It's a certainty.

​@@illuminaticonfirmed2240hes just that guy

He’s fucking scary, not the caves...about the same amount of personality as a bag of mud....

Moogy Banna Hilstopaflingon He’s probably been hired to retrieve carcasses numerous times.

Wokstar Eugene he stared in the beginning of the video that he has gone on over a dozen dives to recover the dead bodies of drowned cave divers, he is definitely the real deal

@@moogybannahilstopaflingon6803 This isnt about personality. This is about him being direct and straight to the point with his students. Informing them about the dangers of cave diving. To always follow the rules or die.

Mr ballen does that with his stories on cave diving

planing is key to a safe dive

No if ands or buts about it, little lady. You're spending the night with Fred Garvin....male cave diver.

human bones and 'artifacts'? you mean stuff from dead divers or cro-magnon cave people?

Eli B that’s considered Open water.. lol. You’re fine in the tub.

Learysinsight Wakefield I’m never diving in a jacuzzi again

Hahahahahaha, if the rubber duck disappears you’ll have to call this guy to retrieve it. That’s scary...

@@learysinsight5796 But a bathtub has a drain, which is narrow and a sudden near vertical drop.

100% agree with you

Diving, especially in caves is an activity in which, no matter your training and experience, is an activity where a lot can go wrong. Each dive has its risk of being your last, you just have to accept it but not forget it.

LOL Yeah bro I am totally going to

Well Mike, are you alive?

Hahahahahahaha! Hilarious!

I love it, films should look like they are films, not this weird really realistic looking definition that looks close but still our brains know the difference

You guys are the ones that make the internet a beautiful place, I thank you.

Join The Lodge I just found out my buddy died while filming a dog in the bathtub

+Genesis Maldonado you are hot

+Cesar Rodriguez you are desperate

I think the danger is in being enticed by a strange-looking passage and you break your plan "just a little" to check it out and that's where you get stuck and die. These deaths remind me of stories in mythology.

He's Lamar Hires, owner of Dive Rite (diving equipment). He's one of Florida's most experienced cave divers. Open water diving is one thing and tech diving is another. You'd be surprised how many open water divers are tempted to venture inside of a cave entrance. Unfortunately that's all it takes for a fatality to occur, and most cave related fatalities have been from untrained OW divers. Diving is a magical activity; Just stay within your training, experience, and comfort level. Happy, safe diving

cat thornberg LOL! Love your sense of humour!

I mean there are understandable reasons why people would go into some of these areas. That being said, my chances of being one of those people is slim to nil.

Tyrant you sack of wine!

It’s because there is nothing like what it looks like in a cave any were else

#JustWhitePeopleThings

***** Caves are not fine without training period. Even the entrance. Silt can block the sunlight and lead to zero visibility very quickly. You need to have very good buoyancy control before even taking cavern. There is plenty to see in open water first. Enjoy it and take your time with your training.

Same. I’m thinking it’ll take 10-20 years maybe? Idk but I am eagerly waiting haha.

Cave divings easy as fuck, everyone should try it once before they die

Please don't cave die

Isn't deep scuba diving comparable though? You can't ascend too quickly so if something goes wrong you are pretty much as trapped as you would be in a cave.

@@Sheuto ​ I know you weren't asking me, but I think deep sea scuba diving on wrecks and under ice would be comparable to cave diving as these are enclosed environments. If a diver gets lost in an enclosed environment he or she can run out of air and drown which seems to be the case in a lot of cave dives that went wrong. I think deep sea diving in open environments is inherently less dangerous than cave diving if only for the reason that it is easier to return to the surface is someone's running low on air. In open environments underwater, you don't have to worry about finding your way out of a maze-like environment like you might with caves, wrecks, or underneath ice. With that being said, even with deep scuba diving a diver may have to perform decompression stops when ascending if he/she has been underwater for enough time. The purpose of decompression stops in these cases is to allow gases in the body (such as gases in the blood) to gradually go back to surface level pressures upon returning to the surface. Without decompression stops, the gases would go back to surface levels so fast that it could hurt or possibly kill the diver. Divers are taught to factor in decompression stops when they plan out their dives underwater depending on the maximum depth they plan to go to and how long they plan to be underwater. Also, many scuba divers wear dive computers on their wrists and/or use tables to figure out their decompression stops. My point: I would argue that deep sea diving in an open water environment is inherently less dangerous than cave diving for the reasons given above.

@@dw8769 I know that. I meant that if you encounter some kind of emergency when deep diving, you can't just quickly ascend for reasons that you listed. So you are as trapped as if you were in a confined space. Well, I suppose you can inflate your jacket and hope that somehow you won't die. At very least it will be easier to retrieve your body than if you get lost in a cave.

iNezumi inflating you’re BCE to ascend quickly is that last thing you want to do. The thing is when open water diving most of the time you are with a group or several buddies. So even if one of you run out of air or equipment fails in some way you can always go to you buddy or the closest person and use there backup regulator ( if needed ) to Breath while making a slow ascend. It’s hard for me to think of any scenario in open water that would make you need to immediately get to the surface or else you will die. In caves you are alone or with 1 other person and in smaller spaces. I could think of multiple things that could go wrong. The only open water incident I could think of is some sort of animal attack. Other than that I’m not sure. When ur certified they teach you what to do in almost every situation to avoid injury if something goes wrong or fails. 🤷

See I would never do deep scuba diving or bungee jumping (hanging by my ankles is the part that scares me), but I’ve been enticed by cave diving ever since I started watching horror stories on it. I guess I enjoy horror a little too much. And I enjoy facing my fears and cave diving scares the ever living shit out of me. I can’t wait. Edit: I rewound the video and then he went thru the light scenario and when the screen went black my heart actually sunk for the first time. That’s terrifying. I’m bringing like 12 lights with me lol. Jk but also not really, I’ll take as many as allowed/can fit.

Agnes wasn't found trapped or stuck and she was found in a calm manner, coroner reported that there were "no signs of panic or distress" She was also in Tank Cave, described by her as a "spider web gone crazy", some of the passages in Tank Cave are so narrow that it makes team diving impractical so solo exploration is often best. If you want extremes look at no-mount exploration where it's a diver and a cylinder held infront of them. Agnes was at the very front of cave exploration when she died, she knew the risks and accepted them and she died doing something that made her life worth living.

I read in an Australian paper she was stuck in a passage of the cave. "No signs of panic of distress" don't mean she happily saw death coming, smiled and died.

breadandcircus1 There was a report from a friend of hers who cleared the way for the police recovery who said that she was found in a passage of cave with no air, though she may have been trapped and ran out of gas whilst trying to extricate herself. I agree that she probably wasn't overjoyed the idea of death looming but she accepted it and let it happen rather than thrash around in a full blown panic.

I was in Sydney at OzTek about two weeks after that occurred. Agnes was supposed to give a presentation, but of course that never happened, and they left her lecture time open for people to gather in remembrance. Many don't know it, but she was also an advisor and stunt double for diving in the film Sanctum, which came out 23 days prior to her death on 27 February 2011.

So true. I still watch her wonderful, out-of-this-world videos and it seems she was like invulnerable, that she couldn't die the way she died. So beautiful, so skilled, so vibrant young woman. Have you seen her memorial, spreading of her ashes in the ocean online ? Very moving experience

big wave surfing and especially base jumping is not nearly as dangerous as cave diving.

At first they tried a potato, but the shoe worked better!

So they upgraded? Well this changes everything.

Smmnmnm Nmnmnm No one said anything about the age of the video buddy. Just observed that it was filmed using a size 8, left, men's shoe. That is all. Good day sir.

He's still alive and more informed 10 years later I hope?

🤭

Nope sorry, Jesus walks on water and his dad probably wont let him go under it. Can you imagine the weightbelt for someone who floats on the soles of his feet.

Steve Carter It's over 9,000!

Keep following the rules.

He was a Star Wars extra and they let him keep the uniform 🤣

JIN KAZAMA hahaha...funny as fook

Well said..

+Steph Grace wow...that's deep man very deep you must be some sort of genius or something?

I've recently had a nightmare of almost drowning in the Bolton Strid, and hoo boy, it makes me want to stay the hell away from forest streams for some time :/

it is a 30 year old vhs tape someone put on youtube.

@@toomanyaccounts well done. do you want a medal?

Saturation divers are literally two days further away from the outside world than astronauts on the moon.
