all that roping/belaying and tying off must take some time to master ... experience always matters,, nevermind the mind over matter bit -- this is really a sport to contend with, i enjoyed the detail in the video ,, thank you
This is a truly great video! I just finished reading James Tabor's 2010 book called "Blind Descent", and despite its riveting descriptions, I had no real idea of the depth of Krubera and the sharp, unforgiving nature of its rocks until I watched this. A picture is worth a thousand words, and a video can be worth a thousand pictures! Thank you for posting this.
I could tell not 5 minutes in that he has decades of experience and had been down that cave dozens of times before and knew it like the back of his hand. Its crazy just how many anchor points he had to work with just to repel down, and he didn't even reach the bottom, if there even is one, after nearly 30 minutes of constant movement.
That was so fun to watch thank you! You are so fast at those rope transfers my heart would not slow down. I want to do that so bad but I live in the wrong part of the world right now. Thank you for the wonderful adventures!
Damn, I love your style. Good idea to clip into the hand rope, so you're still safe after the rebelay. You don't bind off the rack, so you're pretty fast, just slip the rope over. I need to do some experiments with that. What's the brand of your rack? BMS? What I don't like that much is the way the 2 point anchors are rigged. You do it with a figure of 8, connecting the loop to one anchor and the short rope to the other. I prefer the rabbit ear knot, but that's just my personal opinion. Anyway, you're one hell of a caver. Best regards and stay safe.
I’ve done my share of climbing 🧗♂️, on the wall as we call here in Wyoming / Montana, which means rock-climbing. And I’ve done my share of cave climbing 🧗♂️. Ascending & descending. But for the life of me!! The way he is descending down down down, to me, IS SHEER-FUCKING-MADNESS!!!! I cannot for the life of me!! Figure out exactly what it is, how it is he is doing it!!! I swear to God I cannot!! In the last 25 years I’ve never seen anybody do what he’s doing!!!! Not here in this part of the States. Because from looking at it, it doesn’t make any damn sense whatsoever!!! He clips in, then it appears he drops a short distance, then clips in again!!! but how can this be, when he was clipped in before , 20 to 30 feet up!!! To me and to several other climbing 🧗♂️ friends of mine, all 9 of us are in full, agreement. You have to unclip before you can clip in again and keep descending. And when we belay out here, we don’t go just 20 feet 🦶 30 feet 👣 or 40 feet 👣 we belay 100 🦶 feet 🦶 or more!! there’s not one thing he’s doing that makes any sense whatsoever it looks like a good way to kill yourself!!!!
has anyone ever taken drill samples to see how far down this limestone layer goes? depending on the depth of the limestone, the cave may keep going significantly deeper.
I'm from Ukraine. A very terrible war is going on in our country now. When the war is over, we can resume exploration of the caves. We are open for cooperation! But first, we must win!!

The absolute trust you must have in your equipment..
And the equipment set up by ppl before him!
Terrifying

You made this descent look so easy, huge respect for you.
so fascinating yet also terrifying!
great video, I couldn't help but look up a map of the cave to see if I could mentally follow where you went
This video is beyond words. All I can say is thank you for now.
Imagine walking home at night and then you accidentally step into that abyss!

Impressionnant la vitesse à laquelle tu travailles. On sent bien les années d'expérience derrière. Bravo pour la performance
Love the explanations you gave along the way. It's fascinating. I hope you and the other members of your speleo group are doing OK in Ukraine!
Navigating all the way down there only to have to climb back up that insane depth. Great vid.
How
how is it great. switching lines every 3 seconds totally boring

Awesome video ! I just discovered this cave thanks to your video. Now I have a new goal in my life : going to this cave !
In August, I will be filming a sequel to the film about the Krubera cave.
Acá después de ver el video de dross xd
So awesome. Thank you for the translation.
Очень круто! Снимите как-нибудь полное погружение
From Iran, it's unbelievable.wooow,so deep😮
Like the well thougt rigging👍

Thumbs up to you brave man from 🇵🇰Pakistan.
Damn, the last time I watched this, this cave was the deepest in the world. It has since been surpassed
Spider-Man skill bro!!! Mad respect!!!
Круто 👍
Wow
Fantástico
Just 9x farther to go to the bottom!
Неделю назад побывал там )

Menakjubkan.. saya hanya takut smeagol😅

Yes, up to 1,487 1/2 feet deep..
Si bajar es asi imagina volver a subir.
You amazing
Omg I can't breathe.
awesome...
This is incredible.
Wow!!!!!
This is so cool. Can I join your team? I want to do this for a living.

Vengo de dross xd
X2:v
Solo vi cambiar ganchos de lugar.
So fast at all the rebelays!! Excellent video!! Does anyone use a bobbin style descender? (Like a Petzl STOP or Simple)
Simpl and stop very strong wear of aluminum rollers. There is a lot of abrasive sand in the cave.
I still use a figure 8 while descending! Lol

How long does it take to get back up to the surface? Thanks!
great video, great courage
why?
How do they get out?????
And if something malfunctions……bye
Решетка сильно греется?
Греется, но не сильно. Температура в пещере 3 градуса... Решеткой еще не обжигался...
İzlerken ben sıkıştım
Когда будут новые видео с пещеры Крубера-Воронья ? Вы туда месяц спускаетесь ?
Uyyy que horror 😓
крутая пещера, но что б оценить её всерьез нужна полномасштабная экспедиция на целый месяц.
Why would you go down there?! It's so terriging if you get stock or are tired and can't climb up.
worse, your light goes out.
Zzzz
