This is incredibly wonderful.. Carsten Peter, the extreme situation photographer, I can't help but admire you . You have shown us crystal caves and volcanoes that no one had ever hoped to ever get a glimpse of before.

Okay, I was able to email Carsten. In case anyone else wondered, the word he uses is Phytokarst.

Crazy, man. U're really a fortunate and lucky person, been able to feel that. Just infinite thanks to show me the sensations you experienced there in. I love lighting and the ambience of the shots. I hope to get there once, but your stills may be enough for one life. Caves here are not such big chambers... Keep on going!

Thank you Carsten Peter for your wonderful exploration and images. I am from Vietnam, but after watching this clip, I was like " really ? is this my Vietnam ? ". I think I take my country for granted, and do not bother exploring my own country. I have been to few beautiful places around the world, but non of it could be compared to this one. I guess I need to do things that many foreigners come to Vietnam for: exploring it.

Fantastic cave and impressive photos of a challenging lighting environment. But I don't understand why in this video NG presents the cave as their 'discovery'. Why is there no mention of the Vietnamese knowledge and history about these caves?

@bircruz555 11 жыл бұрын

One owesome place! Unfortunately, the underworld is not visitor friendly. It is dark, slippery, and jerky, among other things. Do not worry about tourists: they do not do caves. They are for explorers and intrepid adventurers. Curious though, any pythons in these caves?

@avoicefromthedeepundergrou7108 6 ай бұрын

when he says its a flying reptile the audience laughs and then he says oh its an owl...and it was incredible to witness it...his gut feeling seems to be that he witnessed a flying reptile in that cave....like in the days of old there were dragons and sheeeeeeiit....guess what? they're still here....or are they?

It's unfortunate that beautiful sites get spoiled. However, one should not blame tourists for development. If the locals want to earn money by catering to tourists, who are the outsiders to complain? If one is concerned, pay them money to not build.
