This video detailing the event was more uncomfortable to watch than expected, if you really imagine what it must have been like.. Horrible way to go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-TaF2DbaWw
The closest I'll be getting to exploring a cave is playing Microsoft Adventure. I'm not getting into a cave, no sir.
That's a crazy story, I hope someone makes an original video about it

Everyone has at least one vice.
This one was adrenaline.
Yeah, realizing you've trapped yourself with nobody to help, only your rapidly approaching death, really gets me going. Fun for the whole family (but one at a time)!
Now imaging crawling into a cave, and being blocked by somebody else's shoes.
Going spelunking? Whatever floats your boat
Crawling into a small crack? Dangerous.
But why the fuck did he go into it head first?
You can explore a cave and not be a dumbass.
I like caves (been to like only 2 or 3 though, lol), but if I become stupid enough to trap myself in one, I hope no one would risk a life to rescue me. That's what's actually the worst thing about situations like this.
The only spelunking I do is in spelunky

wanna know something crazy to prevent this? not exploring a cave
That is not what it looked like at all, really. But yes. Dude super fucked up, and got an entire cave permanently shut down.
Here is a WTYP pod episode about caving in general, with a part on this accident in particular.
Are tight crannies like this not what drones were invented for? Do cavers not use mini robots to scout out ahead?
Some kind of endoscope would work, or hell, just a rock on a rope.
If you thought you knew the way I'm sure you wouldn't use a robot. He took a wrong turn.
