The video where the young man got stuck when I was with Jacob.
ruclips.net/video/jT9y9b_xJCQ/видео.html
Be careful 🙏🏾
i got access to some cave in Quebec, the longuest one also and many uncharted area. interested?
I'm definitely excited to see what you're alluding to in your next video! Any idea what it will be called so I can keep an eye out for it? The notification system is extremely unreliable and I really don't want to miss it!
Why don't you just subscribe and then check your subscriptions a few times a day? That's what I do, I don't get any notifications on any videos when I have them all turned on which is crazy that's been like this for years now RUclips is junk.
this content is legendary
Ah yes I haven’t had a good panic attack in a while, thanks for the upload! My claustrophobia is excited.
Wish me luck im about to watch it myself and have one lol
Seriously I am also having a panic disorder and these kind of vids just feel good.
I had to swap from full-screen to cinema to prevent being too immersed lol.
I can honestly say that I follow more than I should of these channels about cave diving, cave exploration, cave mapping, etc. By FAR THIS GUY IS THE MOST EXTREME, TAKES INSANE RISKS ALL TO BRING US ALL A GREAT VIDEO OF A BEAUTIFUL CAVE!!! This channel NEVER FAILS to totally and completely amaze me by the situations they have been in!!! And Jacob is AMAZING!!! GREAT WORK SHOWING HIM THE FAMILY ACTIVITY THAT Y'ALL LOVE AND ENJOY!!!
im not really claustrophobic but this video did it for sure LOL!
I'm just glad that you've updated again after 2 months.
They have an another account, the name is Even Darker. They post more on there.
I hope they survived the exploration. I have a feeling they didn't make it bro 😮😮😮😮
@@giuseppemartino9783unless you’re being sarcastic I have something to tell you
How the hell would they upload it.
@@Whiteman2.0😂😂
I’ll genuinely never understand wanting to squeeze into tight, narrow spaces with the danger of collapsing with no chance of help. I just think of the nutty putty cave incident.
That was due to a navigation error. The cover went into the wrong tunnel thinking it was an easier pathway, and ended up getting stuck in a bad position with gravity and his own joints working against him.
I despise the thought of doing this IRL too but caving is in fact wayyyyy safer than it may seem. Pretty much all known deaths have been 110% avoidable and only really happened due to people either pushing it or inexperienced people not taking the existing dangers seriously. Meanwhile a group of cavers who know their stuff will be safer than mountain climbers.
@@lovezatla oh man HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
@@wwiiarchive You got a point you wanna make or did you just come here to bitch?
@@wwiiarchive Did you have something to say or did you just let your tism ventilate?
Your videos make me want to take all of my anxiety pills, but I can't stop watching!
Right lol
Here, I'll share mine with you 😅
Don't take them all at once. Space them out over a lifetime.
Same!!!!😂
Is everyone on anxiety pills.
That's one of your most rollercoaster videos. Not only do I love your explorations but you share life lessons that should be applied to all aspects of life.
It is mad how much jacob has grown up! Glad you manage to get out that collapsed cave unscathed. The most important thing is that you all get home safe! 😊
I really hope the friend is ok, i can imagine that really shook them up
i'm glad uploads are back
One of the most entertaining and genuine feeling youtube channels out there. Always enjoy seeing an upload from you guys. Stay safe down there and try to not crush any heads beneath boulders!
What a pleasant thing to say thank you very much. We try to keep the horror wholesome.
Wholesome Horror 😂 yes please!
@@CalvinHikes No prob, thanks for the content that I'm too afraid to try myself haha. Been following since you first gained traction and learned a lot! You and Jacob make a great team
Respect to Jacob for keeping calm under pressure & comforting their friend during that incredibly difficult situation
Ahhh I'm so glad you guys have started posting again. I was worried that something might have happened!
Something always happens. We just mostly move on. The snow is a problem right now.
So so glad to see you guys uploading! Great video! Much love and stay safe fellas.
Caving is so much easier than editing videos. Glad you enjoy them.
I'm at work so I can't watch this until later, but really looking forward to it. Also looking forward to helping break the internet when your next video comes out. Love you guys!!!! 😊😊
I appreciate that you remembered that. I don't think this videos particularly scary even though it's a very dangerous cave and somebody did get hurt.
But the next video is just awful. We are just dragging garry to his death.
Glad you all made it out safe!!!
This time, they still have a lot of low IQ caves exploring to do.
Your videos are wild to me but i enjoy watching the suspense of exploring caves and your commentary is fun too!
It's crazy I feel like I've watched Jacob grow up dramatically in just the last couple years watching y'all's videos keep it up! Awesome content.
We tried to stop feeding Jacob, but as you can see, we failed!
@@billsanders9387 🤣
and his voice has gotten deeper too lol
@@AboveDaInflueceits most likely all the testosterone from his MASSIVE BALLS! 🤣🤣 lol no disrespect just super entranced by his fearless bravery, strength and skills!
Whew.... Glad you guys are back and even more glad you guys are safe!!
I wouldn’t go as far as “safe”
Glad to see a new video! I'm always amazed and admire how brave you all are! Wish I had the guts to do this sort of thing! After watching for years, it's awesome to see how confident and brave Jacob has become as a young man and cave diver! Stay blessed and stay safe!
Jacob needs to stop growing or we’ll lock him in a cave. 🤪
hahaha! @@billsanders9387
I’m glad you guys are the ones doing this and educating people.
Tiny caves are huge NOPE for me, but watching professionals do it in a relatively safe way is very interesting.
Thanks for sharing another crazy crawl 🤙🏻
8:51 😳 was not expecting to see yall grinding the Fallen/Situated rocks… that seems Hella dangerous 💀 but I’m not gonna argue with pros
And we aren’t going back to this one’s. That’s our professional conclusion.
Yea it collapsed with a caver inside later so yea it's not safe
It makes me happy to watch another video from you. Thanks
You are welcome.
I've nothing but respect for you guys. Like some others, it's stressful watching because of our own sense of claustrophobia. But I also respect the amount of physical conditioning, mental conditioning, courage, and possibly the life saving combination of patience and intelligence you need to do this. Good to see the occasional post from you again. Till next time!
I would be afraid that if you hammer the stone and loosen it, it would start a chain reaction
That was our primary concern here. Especially since the stone we were loosening was positioned below us.
In the end, it WAS the removal of that stone which did set off a chain reaction. That area is now collapsed again and took some skin and hair with it.
Helps with deep breathing exercises on account of me squeezing my lungs closed!😮😂
@@suzysmith9186Wake up little Suzy! 😂
@@billsanders9387 Now I'm excited to keep watching. You guys stop taking silly risks I'd say.
@@SupernaturalBeingsofEarthLife
Sweaty palms. Your channel and action adventure twins caving are the best. Different style filming but similar vibes at times. Great!
I've been watching y'all since the covid shutdowns. I have an enormous amount of respect for your work, vaules, and principles.
Cool thank you. This channel kind of rose from the ashes of covid.
Wow, that collapse is scary. I’m very impressed you and Jacob kept your cool and worked out an escape plan from both sides. But I guess that’s one of the most important skills to have if you’re going to crawl through tight caves.
I’m always amazed that you do it with all the filming gear. It was pretty funny to hear the cup falling down the crack. 😂
Thanks for sharing the adventure!
Fortunately, we plan ahead for these possible problems. It’s part of the challenge.
@@billsanders9387 Definitely wise! It’s pretty important to have those things already in your head, because adrenaline makes it difficult to make conscious decisions. It’s an immediate reaction boost. If it has a predetermined plan to draw from, then you’re much better off.
Were you there when the collapse happened, Sir Cavepops?
Thanks for sharing!
I've been following you guys for a while and each time its because I watch a lot of caving videos, 2years ago i watched these videos and thought i would never be able to do it simply because of claustrophobia, but ive come to a conclusion that i want to try an amateur cave and maybe i will find a video, you guys make the caving so much more interesting with the commentary and how you make and edit the videos, great work hope you guys enjoy this hobby forever. Much love from Norway
You have so many amazing caves in Norway. Find a Grotto or caving club near you. Good luck.
I'm new to watching these n OMG how do they keep so calm , i stress out just watching. Its crazy crazy . Unbelievable what people do for enjoyment, Mega respect
you are such a pro at this but im still scared for you always, be safe! much love
Love returned. Adventure has risk. Life is an adventure.
was waiting for ur video . .SIR
This channel keeps me safe in caves because after watching these videos, there is absolutely no chance I'm going in one...🤣
Wonderful I am always exhilarated when you upload! I could never try this but the caves are incredibly beautiful
Yay! A new video from my new favorite YT channel! 😍 I am just sooo addicted to your content 😂 can't help myself. Hey, this is just claustrophobia therapy... And learning things about patience and to not be in a (unnecessary and useless) hurry. Which applies to everything in life! 😊 So thank you for all this fabulous content! On this channel and the Even Darker!
Glad you enjoy the videos. Caving is slow. Editing 5 hours of video to make a 20 min movie is waaaaay slower.
@@billsanders9387 all your beautiful work is very very appreciated!
I love this stuff so much, thanks for the vid
You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
Been following you a long time. I'm glad it all worked out but I agree that talus caves can be very dangerous (as if I would know). Glad everyone is safe.
Great video Calvin and Jacob. Looking forward to the next one since you have it all hyped up. Hopefully everyone was alright,you made it sound like Garry had a real bad time.
It looks like a Garry snuff video.
I'd hoped to have it done before this one but... soon.
@@CalvinHikes oh,jeez. I'll be waiting. Haha
Wow you guys have balls of steel ..yall are the truth not many people can mentally handle these types of situations and yall do it for sport. Amazing. It is good to know that if people get stuck in these types of places for whatever reason, there are people out there with the balls who will go in and save lives. Thank yall for the work you put in to bring us this content 👌
We have done some rescue, but generally we cave so far from the beaten path that we rarely see people. If we do, they are lost.
It’s good to see you and your nephew again 😊
Good thing I've been watching these videos. I haven't been caving, but one night I woke up engtangled in my covers. I couldn't move my hand and somehow I was completely under the covers. I remembered the advice from this channel and stayed calm. There wasn't anything threatening me at the moment and I could breathe alright. I wasn't going to fall off my bed and I think that was the biggest danger after suffocating. I did a bit of meditating and collected myself. Then I managed to slowly wiggle myself free. I remained relaxed through the process and I didn't panic and I was calm enough to go back to sleep right after I had freed myself. I've certainly learned useful stuff from this channel!
Ok, We even laughed at this one!
"Siri, call 911!"
"Help! I've been entombed by my covers and they're holding me hostage! This is the most uncomfortable comforter ever!"
HAHAHHA this is hilarious
😂😂
Literally laughed out loud. Well done.
There is NOTHING in there but more rocks
You’ve been there?
@@billsanders9387There's no need to go there because if you think about it using logic you can already see that there are only rocks and dirt there
With the precarious rocks, this is something else man, very much appreciate seeing something I could never attempt.
The fact that you are concerned for the viewer while banging the mic around is hilarious and appreciated. This one has me watching in stages because I cannot handle the small place you are in, holy cow man.
Audio is a big part of the sensory overload in situations like. Trying to provide a genuine experience.
Anyways thank you for noticing.
This cave was surprisingly dangerous.
It's been a while, always love a good epic video to listen to on the way to work haha keep up the good work
Hope it makes your work seem easier.
@@billsanders9387 absolutely lol
Almost all of these are nightmare fuel.. subscribed.
I'm watching you guys do this and my heart is racing in my claustrophobia is out of control LOL.
So glad that everyone is okay...there is always that risk. You just never know. Jacob proved himself very successful in this situation. You've all gained skill that has served you well. Good luck in your future caving endeavors and take care of yourselves!
Out of ALL your vids- this one makes me feel the BEST about y’all getting stuck- looks like A LOT of rock could be moved around to make the tunnels bigger … Another GREAT video, fellas!
When the rocks start moving, so do we. Thanks for the great comments.
That's fine and dandy for the big rocks, but what about the small ones, and the sand?
@@kewlztertc5386 just move it around- that’s what I ALWAYS look for in these caving videos - is there enough area to move stuff around/IF there is anything to move around to make the tunnels bigger … in this one it looked like there was plenty of room to move stuff around… consider you have someone else w you- I don’t think you’d be stuck for long in this one, even though it looks rough… I’m still NOT going in lol but this one looks a lil better than most
You guys are just crazy. Watching this even before the incident was terrifying and i think my claustrophobia may have doubled for a moment.
But... i am very glad everyone made it out of there and that cave part isn't accessible anymore.
Take care and keep staying alive. :)
Great comment. A little luck goes a long way in everything.
Thanks for doing this for me. I appreciate it. ❤
Have you and Jacob ever considered tying your boot laces together on your tighter squeezes. It would just add another dimension to your videos. 👍
crazy man love the videos
Exciting, claustrophobic, challenging, patience, and a big pair of BALLS. 😮 Great video guys!!!
Normal guys in every way except for the choice of risk. We avoid freeways and such. Too risky.
Another insane video. Explored the Manson Caves in California when I was in High School. Scariest thing I've ever done. Mad respect for you guys.
I feel a need to say this on your videos every so often so I will say it again. I can get motion sickness when the wind changes direction and I can still watch your videos, so good job keeping the camera still.
That's a very impressive compliment.
I get motion sickness pretty easy as well. I can't use any kind of VR.
@@CalvinHikesamen to that
U guys are insane I couldn’t breathe watching this glad u guys made it out safe
I can't understand why anyone would ever want to do this, but I enjoy watching the videos. Thank you for doing this, so I can experience what it's like without ever having to do it myself.
Thanks for your efforts. Love this entire world.
I typed in 'Cave Exploration' on RUclips and stumbled onto your channel...watching these videos somehow gives me anxiety and a sense of calm at the same time....subbed 😂
I have to say I truly admire your strength in being able to do this. Just incredible.
Kind words. Thanks for watching.
I love your videos so much thank you for uploading !! Y’all make some of the best content out there 🍄❤️💕
Thank you very much
Love it great content 👌 the silence of that cup falling was great couldnt help but smile.
I think that's cup is in another dimension now.
I've never crawled through cave but I've done slipping through super tight crack opening in a cave while still standing. After watching so many cave diving incidents video, I came across your channel. Tbh it doesn't look too bad and after watching couple of your videos, I actually want to try this one day as much as I wanted to try bungy jumping and I have done 5 times of that lol.
It’s crazy how having someone with u laughing and joking can totally take your mind off it, helps me at work with heights, I just kinda zone out and don’t even think about it
Mad lads, congrats for the nerves of steel.
And rocks for brains?
Watching John Malkovich cave dice is not something i expected to be binging on youtube, yet here i am.
Come along. We’ll keep you entertained.
Thank you for your time.
His videos make me anxious, but I can’t look away.
Have missed y’all hope everyone is doing good
Soooo busy caving. Making videos is hard work!
Holy crap-attack! Did you see that narrow passage? Always good to see you guys again! Please stay safe down there and happy spelunking 🙏
Man glad Jacob stayed calm and they worked together to get safely out
Jacob is totally chill.
Even as someone with claustrophobia i have always wanted to do something like this at least once (with a professional of course) and you inspire me even more thank you
wait a minute..... i subscribed to your channel when you only had 117 subscribers and look at you guys now already half a million😍
Knowing any second there in a chance of a huge rock falling or blocking the exit or anything, is absolute nightmare material lol good grief man
Once and done on this death trap!
@@billsanders9387 heard that! Ya know I tell myself , this would be so awesome to do and I wanna do it.
But unfortunately I suffer pretty badly with that phobia..really sucks.
Even though I know you know what you're doing
I'm always glad you and Jacob get out safe and sound 🙏🏻
Jacob knows what he’s doing. We just follow along
@@billsanders9387 oh I'm sure he knows what he's doing,
All that experience at such a young age one can't buy.
Looking forward to the next adventures 🙏🏻
The only channel that literally suspends my breathing. I forget I have to breathe.
I stumbled across this channel about four weeks ago. I am claustrophobic. But I really enjoy watching them do it. Til I can't, and change channels. But I am amazed. Y'all be careful please!! God bless
God has blessed us, and we ask for that prior to each trip underground. He created it. We honor Him.
No freaking way 😭 How do you feel comfortable doing this. My heart is in my throat! Props to your adventurous spirit ❤
Halfway through the video I had to walk outside on the porch and get some fresh air!! 🤣🤣
GUESS WHATS AT THE BOTTOM ROCKS AND MORE ROCKS
Caves will always have rocks and your couch will always have you.
Wrecked 🤣
@@LunaticKD1991his profile picture confirms Calvins slam. Ahahahaha dang.
His couch have him live...can't sure about you😂@@CalvinHikes
Your videos are amazing and thank you. Are you ever concerned about getting completely stuck/trapped ? , backup safety measures ?
No. The real dangers we face are things you probably wouldn't think of. Like the temperature being freezing.
Cave collapses are very rare and like in this video are generally a result of mining/digging.
Lesson learned and I suppose we should consider ourselves fortunate.
I can’t even handle a MRI when I’m in the machine up to my chest. I somehow can’t get enough of your content
You’ll never recover from our mri
I’m trying to go to this spot next weekend. I want to go and try this caving thing for the first time, it looks really fascinating and rewarding. Where do I find this tour guide you mention in the beginning, the only thing that’s stoping me is not having one. Maybe I will just go without one. I’ll let you know how it goes
Wow bro that has to be the tightest one I've ever seen you in!! For some reason I've been watching caving videos even though I have no desire whatsoever to do it and that is the tightest cave I've seen period!!! Thanks for the panic attack caveman 😂
No charge. Panic hits us on freeways etc. this is enjoyable.
The thought of forgetting where you came from scares me more than the claustrophobia, but the claustrophobia still makes me breathe heavy
Glad to see a new video! Have you guys ever been in a tight crawl like that and had a big spider say hello?
ruclips.net/video/a5WRJ2rl1aE/видео.html
Hello
Ahhhhhh happy to see you again 😁 i need my scary dose 😂😂
Take Care of you ! From France 👍
Can you post a video of first workouts and stretches for flexibility just in case you get into that situation or where to go to train ?
well, that was freaking terrifying.
every time you upload I say "sweet, I'm glad they're still alive". I would never do this kind of stuff but I love your videos.
🫡
just curious but how do you like the idea of free solo climbing with no safety rope. just wondering if you have no fear of depths and claustrophobic spaces do you have a normal fear of heights and falling?
All activities in life there are people who are professionals at it and their status as a pro is hard to understand until you see them perform. You guys are no doubt professional cave explorers! Incredible talent, skills and nerve!
I can't believe how Kool you guys remain under those circumstances.
Another day another check to see if he is alive
Hey I love your videos, I have a little idea, how about a little spirit level in the corner of the picture?
We are a reality-based family show.
I watched so many videos of catastrophes before this one got recommended, i was really scared for what the ending would be. Please stay safe.
I can't believe how much panic I feel just from watching, great video.
thank you for making these video, i have a deep fear of caves but i think you're doing a great job by also shoving the dangerous parts of this hobby while at the same time having fun with your friends and family
Man you guys are a trip.
Round trip ticket, fortunately.
I know you guys were having a good time but wow that seemed like a really tight crawl.
Damn this one triggered me around 7:30 and I had to take a little break before watching more, lol. Love watching the videos but man they get me sometimes.
Remember, we condense hours of video into a short movie. This cave was totally exhausting!! Thanks for watching
