    That car ride, 150m below ground, in complete darkness with only headlights on... For some reason it seems to be much more terrifying than a ride in a squeaky lift.

      You can also work night shifts at a blood donation processing site. Not underground, but the windows are all sealed, work through the night, and temperature-controlled to stay at 20-24 degrees C. Feeling hot? Head down to the cold room, which is set to 2-6 degrees. Still a bit warm? Then the walk-in freezers will be a chilly -40 degrees C.

    Can't wait to see what's in here. It would also be fascinating to know how Laura does the cataloguing. Up to now we've seen items which were already catalogued, how does this process work? It can't all just be in Keith's brain, capacious though it is.

    Now, you guys usually pretty good at avoiding background noise, you use clip on mics, you make sure things are quiet before you start recording, all that good stuff, but you don't work on a sound stage, so things aren't perfect. In this video, I consciously registered the complete lack of echo and background noise. There is none, the only sound in the video once they get in the storage room is them talking. It's creepy.

    I thought it was just those 2 and the cameraman until the pan at 3:57 reveal 4 (atleast, why so many) other people just watching them. Are they there to make sure you don't go anywhere where you not meant to, like trying to break into other people's storage spaces and mining activities or more so you guys don't wonder off in the wrong direction and get lost or are they just curious?

    3:56 looks like the most "support" people I've ever seen in any of Brady's videos. At least 7 people to film this? Brady, someone from royal society, someone from deep store, someone from the mining company, camera operator, and a few others? 😰

    I've heard of situations similar to this, and have to wonder, why is it always in salt mines, as opposed to other kinds of mines? Is it because of the salt itself, or because salt is mined differently then other minerals?
