Spelunkers are crazy, out of every stupid thing you could do that has a high chance of killing you of you if you make a tiny mistake you choose spelunking?
But this hole was made for me!
😭
Drr drr dr
Exploring beginner friendly caves is really cool. But tight passages like this and the nutty putty cave one are absolutely terrifying, and I want nothing to do with it.
This IS the nutty putty cave, the pic is just rotated 90 degrees.
The picture makes my skin crawl because I read about the guy.
It gets worse knowing which way is down in that picture XD
Oh god so much worse. Just a nightmarish, horrid way to go. It seriously freaks me out imagining it.
My first and only cave experience was with a friend who had done the tunnel before so he knew where it went and was safe. It was slightly wider than my shoulders and started with climbing a rope up into the tunnel from a river and ended with a T intersection.
Yeah, choose SCUBA spelunking like a real daredevil!
Wingsuit base SCUBA spelunking
scuba is waaay less dangerous. if your shit fails you can surface (depending on depth of course) the bends aint fun
I think they meant cave diving. Spelunking, but underwater. Incredibly dangerous.
...cave diving is the most ~~dangerous~~ deadly recreational sport of which i'm aware...
yeah fuck that noise.
ive seen signs at cave mouths that are mostly skulls
But scuba spelunking gives you the worst of both. Easy to get lost, easy to get stuck especially because you have a big tank on your back, if you let silt kick up its easy to get turned around and lost in the cave, and of course you also have a limited air supply.
At least you die faster. If I was in the position of the guy in the picture underwater I would just spit out my regulator.
Also if you have the tanks on your side and you never take them off to go through a hole you can be pretty sure that you can go through anything back if your remove them. Siphons tho, that's a different story
What would Saddam Hussein do?
He'd say "It was made for me! This is my hole!", and climb in.
The dialogue actually goes the other way, because manga panels (and speech bubbles and texts inside) are read right to left.
My brain is fried. I thought this was the Saddam Hussein meme.
Nope. One of the most horrifying stories ever meme.
God yeah caving is such a bad idea unless it's already confirmed safe to be in. In addition to the well-publicized risk of getting stuck in a pocket with the blood pooling to your head, you've got collapses and cave-ins, wild animals, noxious gasses, lack of air circulation, there are so many reasons not to go into a cave you don't already know is safe.
Im not Saddam Hussein so I wouldnt be in that situation
Just pull yourself to your side and climb down
Never go into the cave
I don't even go to places where a cave is a option!
I sleep like a baby knowing the risk of this happening to me is 0%
Athletic thrill seekers come in all skin colors 🌈
There are wine caves and cheese caves. I could spend several lifetimes exploring those.
Otherwise, no thank you.
Hoping I die from something else
Easy, I’d prevent myself from being in that situation. What would you do, order a pizza?
At the risk of whooshing, what does this have to do with being black or not?
Black people typically don't do stupid shit like climbing into tiny caves.
Didn't a bunch of miners just die in South Africa in a likely similar situation?
I think doing stupid shit is a universal experience.
Sorry, I should have clarified that I was referencing the stereotypical black American mindset as I've experienced it.
Fair enough.
Average gambler IQ be like, "just one more cm bro"
