It's not that dangerous if you are properly trained and follow all the rules. Which these guys absolutely did not do (It may have been an old enough story there weren't all those rules yet, I'm not sure. Regardless, nowadays it's not that dangerous). It's not as safe as reading at home, sure, but not particularly more dangerous than private aviation or hunting, or hiking difficult routes or so on.

I’m from Hawaii, and of all the stories I heard of people’s mishaps with the “Stairway to Heaven”, I’d never heard this one! Not saying it didn’t, of course I believe it. But a mysterious disappearance?! That surprised me! Thanks for finding and posting this one! Side note: If anyone dreams of a Hawaii vacation, just be aware that the government there has a really bad habit of coverups… They can’t afford to scare away tourists, so too many murders, disappearances, and other crimes are hushed up. So, be super prepared, and don’t be a bad tourist 😉

No doubt. I've always been one of the biggest "adrenaline junkies" i know, and I've been a drag racer since I could drive. I do, however, draw a fat line in the sand when it comes to free solo climbing and most cave diving. There are interesting enough things in less dangerous situations, and then videos of the people who must do this type of thing. Point being, I can watch and imagine the situation without risking my life to be there. But i bet a lot of people say that about drag racing, so no judgment here.

The stairway to heaven is one of my favorite trails and being a native Hawaiian we go hunting over there all the time. My dad was a guard over-there and he had countless stories of people who actually live there, they are bush people and are like animals, literally “mutating humans.” My dad had encountered them many times and said that the language they spoke was not Hawaiian, it was like inaudible groans and noises. Very aggressive people and are most likely people who grew up in the wilderness of those valleys and live off the land like my ancestors. Would not recommend this trail but if you are an adrenaline junkie and love a thrill, your are welcome to do so at your own risk.

The Bouvet Island boat mystery has been conclusively solved - it was abandoned by a Russian expedition to the island a few years before. They had taken a couple of boats to the beach, returned with one. As the weather worsened, they retrieved their team with their helicopter, leaving the second boat behind. Apparently there was no way they could safely get the boat with its crew safely back to the ship through the surf.

The stairway hike is dangerous, but only if it’s rainy or really windy. David was out on a clear day with decent wind conditions. I’ve done that hike a few times with my Marine buddies while I was stationed on O’ahu, and it’s very unlikely he would have fallen or slipped on a day like that. Not to mention the fact they never found a body, and he was hiking alone. Also, there’s no reason for anyone to be in those trees, no other trails are NEAR that close to the stairway trail, and he does look like he’s crouching. I’ve heard many stories of single’s and couple’s “disappearing” during night hikes on O’ahu. I’ve also heard there is a group of very resentful locals who kidnap and murder tourists because they don’t like tourists or outsiders. Some locals have very strong opinions about this stuff, but don’t let this scare you away, most of the locals are amazing kind warm-hearted people, these are just some rumors I had heard during my service.

I’ll never understand why people want to risk their lives to go in these caves where you can’t even see anything. As a previous poster said the cave diving community needs to seal off these false exits.
@gavinjenkins899 Жыл бұрын
You can absolutely see things. That comment only pertained to a single room of a specific cave. Not all cave diving in general. It's probably not even true anyway, I believe that happened quite awhile ago and techniques have improved since then for kicking in ways that don't pull up silt. Some places it's still unavoidable, but like 95% of the time you can see just fine if you have good technique. There is also no reason to seal off false exits, because you ALWAYS follow a rope line, and the line has the direction to the true exit on arrows tied into it regularly. It is not possible to end up in a false exit unknowingly if you follow the required certification training and rules. Meanwhile, people sometimes WANT to go into false exists to see them, and sealing them off would prevent that. But when you go in, you again have a rope line, with the arrows pointing BACK out to the real exit, so you cannot get confused if you follow the rules.

I've gone up haiku stairs many times, its not dangerous. I used to hike or trail run alone all over on the mountains in Oahu until more and more often i'd be running or hiking and out of nowhere a men would pop up and some looked mentally ill or like they live in the woods. None of them attacked me ever but it was scary.
@karenmariespann4614 6 ай бұрын
The Stairs were open for the longest time, so popular that dozens of day hikers would be on the trail/stairs with you and the sketchy parts were easily tackled by watching a fellow hiker navigate a gap in the stairs or with careful hiking if no one was around… The county closed the stairs to repair them then briefly re-opened them then closed them permanently… the county also did this with another high risk, high land slide area on Oahu, the sacred falls.

I've done the stairway 4 times, every time there were many others on the path. I think it unlikely someone would have abducted him, though it is possible he fell. There are 2 places where ropes are used instead on a ladder to get to the next ladder segment. Also, the ladders are thin, so whenever there is a person going the opposite direction, one of you have to hang off one of the sides to allow passage. It's completely possible he needed to relieve himself, excited the ladder on a less inclined area, then slipped off in an area not adjacent to the path.

that last story is so sad. they shouldn’t have risked going to a sealed off area at all, but it makes me wonder so badly what richard saw that made him peel out of there so quickly without his equipment. if he just let go of the tank you think he would’ve tried his hardest to get it instead of just letting it go. it makes me wonder if there were bodies/bones in the way of the tight space. or if it was something worse... sadly we’ll never know. huge shout out to his friend for immediately sharing his air and trying to save him. if only they wouldn’t have went up the wrong way, then they both could’ve lived. but it’s an easy mistake ESPECIALLY in super stressful situations.. that’s what people don’t understand. they like to talk shit from the comfort of their couch saying they’d do this and they’d do that, but the truth is, there is NO guarantee on what you would do in these situations and you’ll never know unless it happens to you. the body and mind does some really fucked up things in times of stress and danger. not to mention all of the added weirdness that being deep underwater already does to you.

I'm thinking there was probably at least one body right near the exit but not in it, since you have to wriggle out of it, he'd have to have gotten through and turned around. I'm thinking he saw something and was surprised or startled, dropped the tank, and maybe it's one of those dark bottomless pits, so he panicked and now he's panicking even more trying to squeeze through this hole, that far down, without any air, knowing that if his friend wasn't there or didn't take action fast enough to share air he'd be dead.

Heyyyyyy Mr Ballen, love your videos and your podcasts, just one correction from an experienced diver here :). I’ve noticed you mention in a few scuba diving stories that when one diver is out of air, the other “takes his mouthpiece out” to begin “buddy breathing” switching back and forth. Actually that is not how it’s done. Every diver has a 2nd “alternate” regulator meant for that exact purpose, so the rescue diver would keep their mouthpiece in, and give the person in need of air their alternate regulator, so they are both breathing out of the same tank. Obviously the air doesn’t last as long, but in no scenario (at least that I’m aware of) would a diver ever remove their own regulator to “switch off” with another diver.

And you're just not right bud lol. The guy is a SEAL, he is firmly aware of how this works 😂😂😂. And in quite a few scenarios a diver would indeed remove their own regulator in favor of another using it.

Something happened to Richard Patton causing him to abandon his air tank in chamber 4, putting his survival in doubt. He was experienced and capable, yet it seems a dead body, that would not have been unexpected, caused him to lose his sanity. If this situation could be envisioned, they could have taken a spare air tank. Mr Ballen your presentation skills are excellent, I watch losts of videos but normally forget them quite quickly - this I can't forget.

No, he was neither experience nor capable, if he didn't even run a rope line, such that there was any possibility of getting stuck in a false chimney. They weren't following the MOST BASIC of rules. They didn't even have two regulators each, either, for example. They seemed actually quite poorly trained and incapable, at least for cave diving, from the story. Maybe it was so many years ago, the rules didn't exist yet, but even if so, "rules not existing" still means you're inexperienced just as much as "rules existing but not learning them" does, in practical terms.

I live in Central Florida where we have lots of gin-clear springs full of caves which have been completely closed off to diving, mainly because of the silt problem. So many divers have died being unable to find their way out the state finally said, ok, enough of this and shut 'em down.

I'm generally pretty wary of terrestrial caves too.

They made a park out of the place, and have a map of the cave system along with a picture of a diver in the cramped quarters. The entrance to the well is only 4’-6’ in diameter. I’m not exactly claustrophobic, but you won’t catch me down in that hole. That story gave me the willies!
