I love Calvin’s awkwardness during these difficult crawls. This is a crawl, right? Because they can’t stand up and hike at any point. I love Jacob’s curiosity and innocence like saying “I don’t even know what pet peeve means” and then Calvin explains without making himself seem smart or Jacob seem dumb. Great people. Good content. I hope this channel grows big enough to change their family’s lives! Calvin, you deserve it.
Thanks for noticing the nuances. Ive always thought Jacobs curiosity translates well to the camera. Its even in his shifting eyes.
*Channel growth not required. We're just out here havin a good time.
@@EvenDarker I got my Eagle Scout in Ohio. Wish our troop did something similar. Great experience and wilderness survival was one of my favorites camping with debree huts. I’m glad I typed in claustrophobia in RUclips one day and found you guys lol.
@@Org80 Someone needs to talk to him about doing the dishes.
@@toddb6266 That's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing.
I'm already having a panic attack watching this
Me too this can cause panic attacks when you claustrophobic.
Watching this before sleep makes the best evening
same
Man I love y'all's relationship it's wholesome as hell.
Thank you! We refer to our adventures as wholesome horror.
@@EvenDarker let me tell you man I have a deep admiration for people who have a passion to exist through and take part in whole heartedly, no matter what that is. After a long life of addiction/inner term oil I'm currently rebuilding with a clearing head, finding something to fall in love with is a difficult and my current task. And so anyway long post not so long I'm just sayin people like y'all help inspire me as I figure that shit out 😂🤣. Have fun guys and be safe, I'll be keeping up with y'all from now on.
@@EvenDarker also wholesome horror is hilarious 😂
@@EvenDarkerI think that is such an awesome hook, or motto, or whatever it's called. It has both mystique and a draw to it. In terms of marketing and stuff it's one of the best I've seen on all of youtube!- not that a random commenter from Ohio's opinion matters, but still, seriously, its really good. I'm not sure if there's a merch store, but I can definitely see shirts with that on it selling- I'd buy one lol
@@JstPF-93similar situation here. I just don't have the funds to do the things I want to do but I'm working on it. And I'm way too big and not in good enough shape to do something like this although there are caverns and caves close to where I live in Tennessee but I'm working on things. I've been in recovery for about 7 years and was an addict for 5 or 6 years been on Suboxone this whole time. Also something I want to work towards not needing at some point. I'll always use it as long as I feel I need to though but I definitely need to get in good shape and get myself in a good position in life before I'm ready to try to get off of it. Still tremendously better than being in addiction but it is still a hindrance.
How is this possible.? By just watching I’m getting panic attacks… the mental health must be top notch
I used to have to turn these tube crawls off, turn on lights and walk outside to get fresh air… just to get over the claustrophobia your videos would induce in me. I think watching these is slowly curing me because this has been one of the worst prolonged squeezes yet and I was generally comfortable the whole way through! You guys look like you have great fun, it’s awesome to see family members share a deep bond like yours. Much love from Ohio
I'm with you except I went for a bike ride to get that sense of openness and freedom lmao.... ironic how he's the one crawling through it and I'm the one having nightmares 😭😂
I double the love from Ohio!
man thats so hard to watch my heart is locked up the whole time, you guys are awesome
You guys scares the living daylight‘s out of me but I am so glad you are all right, I’m extremely claustrophobic I do have to say your videos have help me considerably with that, Safe travels don’t get too cocky please always be safe
We make no promises about safety or confidence.
You folks are flipping CRAZY!!! I'm hooked, absolutely Love watching the two of you work together as a Team.
I always remember that when we're with other people because I end up relying on Jacob for a lot of coordinated efforts. He knows what I want without my speaking. We've worked together for so long now that we are very safe and get good work done together.
Bro you guys are the kings of cavers keep up the grate videos and jake is crazy kid you can tell he loves caving keep it up guys doing grate
You guys have actually made me feel claustrophobic for the first time in my 43 years of life. I don't know how you do it man but keep up the good work and stay safe.
Calvin & Jacob you are the best!
omg how you guys have guts to be so calm in this kind of thing.....................................................................
The physical wounds heal, the accomplishment lasts! Seems like a fun lava tunnel chosen by Jacob on a brave day. I like it how Calvin always really wants to try aswell whenever Jacob fits through 😁. This extra portion cave is an awesome find guys! Perhaps some day someone else will come across your rock pile in there.
Jacob was really gettin after it in this cave. I was only showing him the small passage... did NOT think he'd ever be able or willing to jump in and try it.
I can see now how you LOVE doing this, my first of your vids i was high in anxiety, after 10+ vids i am getting used to just "watching" these vids comfortably..... Once again you guys are f'ing awesome, professional and passionate about what you do ... 😁👍🏻🙏🏻
I apologize that you are getting comfortable. We will try to step up our game. ; )
@@EvenDarker 🤣 top response 🤣 not that comfortable just easier 😁
you guys are a blast to watch. no way I could do this, to fat and to claustrophobic
In the starting few videos it was claustrophobic but now I'm loving these videos ❤
Will try to make it more difficult in the future. I apologize for your comfort.
Holding the camera stick wile ventureing in a whole that only looks like a house cat could fit threw is true talent.Not too many camera men could do this and deserves more credit 👍👍👍
It's very appreciated comment. I tell people as often as I can, caving is not nearly as difficult as taking video. I think that's our stick is reasonable camera work in a terrible place
@@EvenDarkerWell your also descant people and there's not a whole lot these days.Jacobs off to a good start too,and I wish I can go on a cave dive with you guys.✌️
It’s when Jacob said “John jones type” I thought oh hell no!!! Respect guys as there’s no way in hell you’d ever find me doing that 😲😲
One question- if you’re the back up what happens if you then get stuck in passage after him? How do you get help or have you ever had to do that?
We just dont get stuck. But anytime theres more than one person, we can get each other out.
Now, with Jacob being closer in size to me, if he can make it, usually, I can follow.
I love this, I'm buying some basic gear next month.
Amazed at the very tight constricting spot yet so calm like it's just another day at the office
Cuz dis is our office.
I just found a secret setting on my headlamp and I'm so excited - highlight of this video
Lol, yes. Full blast.
Cave diving to them is what rock climbing is to Alex Honnold...just another day at the park....pure adrenaline rush for someone who is extremely claustrophobic....my anxiety level was as high as mount Everest
That's about right. Another day at the office. I never think about it beyond just something to do. It's super fun.
Aren't you supposed to have like three people.... One can be outside the cave and go for help if they don't see you within such a Time.
This makes me realize my fear of these places is a blessing
The problem doesn't seem to be getting stuck, it's just having enough energy to become unstuck.
Basically. It's a lot of management of energy levels. As the day goes on, I take less risks.
Oh my gosh...Thanks for the upload and the anxiety...I will never need to watch a horror movie again as long as you guys keep uploading your crazy hijinks
And I never watch horror because I don't want to introduce anything into my life that might cause fear.
@@EvenDarker LOL
You should at least watch The Descent😀
"I've got a bunch of hairs in that knuckle *FLURRRRRRRP*" Surprised the cam even heard that. Holy cow! 17:40
I honestly dont know why I watch these amazing videos while working from home lol so distracting due to anxiety, thrilling edge of your seat, sweating and holding my breath moments these videos make me feel haha, awesome love it and keep them coming, cheers and stay safe - Peace
"I'm havin' a fat day." 🤣Incredible stuff. What a team.
@17:30 Calvin’s joker laugh😂
It's so much worse now. Sometimes I wake up at like 3 AM in full-tilt joker laugh. Scares everyone.
@@EvenDarker also while using the first thousands of years old tool (a rock) without any hesitation. Simple but yet so profound.
U guys are dangerously fckn AWESOME...😮😂 jus subscribed to your channel.... love narration as u guys are squeezing through
Caveman, the other day i used your advice, i was working under my car about 12" off the ground, belting & bashing & torquing spanners from every angle you can twist your arms. 4.5 hours later in a moment of frustration, i remembered your philosophy and said to myself patience is my friend haha.
Just stop and breathe. That's great. I've had to use that advice myself underneath cars when I'm trying to unscrew a bolt, blind.
And you know I started watching you guys a few months ago and I was amazed at the mental toughness you and your son have. Obviously he has gotten that from his father, but I just want to say that I am very impressed on the control both of you have, and just find that calmness in a very precarious situation, and as I can clearly see when you’re stressed and can’t move it’s obvious with the way you handle it is receiving clear I will continue to follow you guys and hope to see more and I have a profound respect for both you and your son and support this channel. God bless Godspeed and be safe. I’ll stick to keep diving.😅❤💯
Glad you are enjoying. The trick to calmness in a cave is being calm everywhere.
And the trick to that is being patient.
Damn, I just realised. After you got through, you have to crawl out again :O Why would you do this, it's so miserable
Jacob's "large cave" is a wildly different definition than mi mne ahaha mad lad
Jacob: sighs* .. I’m very moist
Me: (pause) 👀🤣
I have to ask, have any of you ever had a panic attack on getting stuck? I kinda remember Jacob saying that he used to be claustrophobic and I wondered if that had ever happened to him or any of your team, and how did he/they cope? 😳
We cave because we like caving.
My life is somewhat stressful and I go caving for anxiety relief. There are times when it's intense but no I have never seen any one panic. I never even heard of it honestly until Internet comments. People who are afraid of this don't do it!
Omg, I can't stop watching these cavers ....that was intense 😌
*It's like a cave for ANTS!*
😂
Perfect!
👌
15:05 You know you're in a situation when you gotta tell Jacob to stop yelling 😅 coz it's worsening the slight panicky situation
Like trying to drive in a congested area silence is sometimes helpful for concentration.
Seems like there are so many lava tubes where you are. Is it the Pacific Northwest? We don't really get them in Northern Europe. It's all limestone where I am. There are caves, but they're either show caves with a tour, or not easily accessible without ropes and expert guides.
I bet there are hundreds of great caves near you. Locating them is the mystery. But their existence is almost certain.
Oh man. Your crazy . I would be freaking outyby now.
It’s amazing what you guys do coz even if it’s enjoyable And even if you guys probably have 0 claustrophobia… it’s simply mind boggling that you guys constantly crawl through such pointy rocky passageways . I mean doesn’t it pain a lot?
Yes it hurts. But it's so much fun.
Such a hard watch. I love these vids but i have to keep turning away and even skip bits as its just tooo much for me to handle and im on the other end of an ipad. Cant even imagine what its like. Crazy people. Keep safe pleeeeease
When it’s so tight you have to start digging, that’s time to go home!
Most people never leave home.
love the videos keep it up
I gotta say, you guys do something that I just could not do. No way, no how.
I don't know how you fit in those caves with those gigantic brass ones you two lug around!
Dude your videos are freakin awesome and you got one hell of a strong mind!!! And balls of titanium!!😂 I got mad respect for that!! And lava tubes have another level of intensity compared to limestone caves, the texture is so different. I could never do it but respect and 🍻 from Wisconsin!! ☮️
Edit- And this tube is crazy tight!! I'm only 10 mins in!!! LMFAO!! 👍
My favorite part about Wisconsin is that you get to leave Illinois to go there. The transition from terrible to nice is shocking. On Wisconsin!
@@EvenDarker 😂😂 LMFAO!! Yeah we dont really like them FIBS -(fn Illinois bastards) lol 😂 just a joke and happy Holloween!! It's cool you guys respond alot to your comments thank you! 👍
@@EvenDarker the one cave I was in was Cave of the Mounds in Wisconsin Dells as a tour, it was cool and kinda forgot til jus now, House On The Rock is very interesting too in Wisconsin Dells
note to self.... always bring a rock hammer! hahahaah this is so fun to watch but so hard to watch, but so fun to watch lol
I really got to stop forgetting my rock hammer.
@@EvenDarker thanks for answering! it shows you care about your fans! we need more videos of you and jacob! gotta love his courage!
You guys ever seen a big foot out there?
Just grandpa
What we had here uses a found stone to hit stone.
Me? I use a 2-pound hand sledge and 3 different
chisels to widen a cave entry. IXL Cave when first
found was a fist-sized hole. 2 smart boys sledge-
hammered it bigger. Who knew their hard work
would encourage demonology ?
I'm constantly holding my breathe just from watching this, there should at least be a pot of gold at the end of these crazy caves.
@ circa 15.50 mins That is the first time i have seen the guy on the edge of panic !
I could imagine being in that spot in the beginning of this vid and feeling closed in and then getting cramps in my legs or arms and wishing I was anywhere but there!
This is why I don't go caving. You'll never know if you get stuck and suffer panic attack.
Just curious Calvin, Do You eat any special High Energy Food before you go Spelunking if so what kind of things? you guys are wonderful. Thank you for the hours of entertainment. This could easily be a television show on HISTORY, Discovery, HGTV, etc.
Just generally a good diet is fine. And an active lifestyle so that you're used to using your muscles and twisting your frame. Sometimes I will eat a banana.
Thanks. We've turned down offers from those companies including Disney Netflix and Amazon. My dream was to make a documentary of them attempting to document us. Because I believe they would die or at least it would be a disaster.
But in the end, we like our lives how it is and feel no need to disrupt it through more popularity. Still I think my idea for a documentary would be hilarious.
@@EvenDarker Thank you for the reply! I can't express how entertaining your RUclips Channel(s) are to The Wife and I except to say that if you would ever start a Kickstarter or GoFundMe to see this hilarity through, we would definitely kick in. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦🍺
I don't know how y'all do that! luckily I wouldn't fit down there. lol 6'4" 230
Omg! I am actually having anxiety attack watching this lol
Stuck and just laughing like a madman chipping away at the rocks lol I'm laughing too hard.
Way to be troopers on this one!
I can't help holding my breath,better men than me
Hardcore boys!! 🤗
glad your having fun, because nothing about this looks fun in the least lol
What would happen if Jacob can't get past you if help was needed??? Is there someone else on the others side to get helppppp? You guys scare the crap out of me sat here in Swindon, Wiltshire, England..
Jacob would probably just eat his way through my body.
Very cool cave keep up the good work buddy 👍
"Joy wouldn't feel so good if its wasn't for pain"
Ur so Crazy omg 😄 greetings from Germany
Awesome!!!
01:45 I can feel your adrenaline rush 😀
@24:00 This is so intense. What would’ve happened if you couldn’t ascend that little stretch? Would you have to back up? By how would you make it back up that previous drop? This is so stressful lol.
We can back strait up/out. We even practice.
I wondered about that too. I got the impression that they had the choice of going back through an impossibly tight squeeze, or another even impossibler tighter squeezer.
Wow. I have a question? Do any of you guys ever have a night m are where you get stuck in a cave or water issues? Just curious my friends.
Nope. I dream of new discoveries. Getting stuck is more of a myth than you can imagine.b
I hope to see some videos where you show the maps you draw of the caves Id be really interested to see the result of the work afterwords I think thats pretty neat that you have the ability to map it out. Wait you have your ability to scan from your phone? I have no idea about how lidar works.
I show most of the maps that I make. Either on this page or the main page. At the end of the video I almost always show the map.
I use a 3D modeling app which works pretty good. I back up the measurements with a laser so the distances are accurate but for small caves the 3D modeler is very effective. And I transfer it to 2D to make a map. Most of the apps are new technology but they work pretty good.
Lidar is just an active laser scan. It's like using a laser to take pictures.
These guys are crazy going into these holes what about if for some reason a big rock falls and trapped them inside. I wonder if people previously went in that one. If starts raining and water flooding the hole. God bless them because they are doing what they love to do. I see on the tunnel walls like cracks, do you all see the lines. At least I hope they told someone where they were going if they didn’t return. Every time he’s like breaking rocks is going to make the tunnel collapse
what happened in this cut? 17:16 btw love the channel
I don't know, i dont remember. I'd have to look and I don't feel like watching an ad to watch my own video. That's too much work!
@@EvenDarker lol fair enuf
I hate lava cave’s! Y’all are nut’s!
ahh man
Even if someone gave me 5 million quid i wouldn't set foot in there hell no feck that!!!!
That's like 60 bucks right?
Horrifying squeeze tubes 👍
Amazing guy's
I cant even watch u guys onky because i know theres a good chance in a few years youll end up like the nutty putty incident !! Ita cool too explore but theres a limit too what type of situation u put yourself into
Brave men i cant even get in a sleeping bag for more then 2 minutes lol
Striking resemblance like john malkovic…
How do you manage if you get leg cramps when you can't straighten your legs out?
I used to get leg cramps quite a bit. I started working my legs more at the gym and that pretty much eliminated it. Gotta keep those muscles in use.
cramping often comes from weakness. Lack of hydration lack of active proper nutrients. So if you eat well and exercise well, it can be less of a problem.
Hey Jacob! I’ll buy that shive from ya fur $5! 🤣
Oh Gawd.... No, freeks me out aaaaarghh
5:18 That's what she said! lol
Sorry for so many Questions.
Calvin sounds like Dennis Boutsikaris.
Never heard of her
Interesting philosophy here too. You got it backwards though. It's not the fact that the caves are often body sized that is key, it's that humans are cave sized! We evolved as cave dwellers. Of course we fit caves, it's not the caves that fit us!
The environment doesn't foot animals, animals evolve to fit the environment.
Animals are the environment.
As for the direct correlation between caves being Fit for humans I would agree that we simply only go in caves that we fit. So it only seems like caves are always human size.
But as a general philosophy as to what has to compromise for the other I'd say there's some fair play between everybody compromising. We could say water must fit the bowl. But the bowl was made for the water. They have a relationship. Their purpose is interconnected.
@@EvenDarker perfect 👌
I can ALMOST fathom the appeal of it. Hes said it in another video but you must remain in the moment at all times. Theres no time to to question the past or worry of the future, you cant just raise the white flag and say you quit. You must put everything you have into each inch, each millimeter, from both body and mind. The parts of the brain that arent focused on that simple message must be a gigantic mass of conscious fortitude to not panic and remain calm. There must be a certain serenity to it all...
I mean if you get stuck you'll have pleeenty of time to regret your life decisions..
I don't think the going in would get me, but the crawling through all that and then having to turn around and retrace your steps? Especially when its a bunch of tight long squeezes and rock climbing. Id be afraid of running out of energy or having to defecate or urinate.
100% anxiety free! Because it's everything free.
Nuts❤
You guys are insane if you ever get stuck you die
Hopefully!
How do you even find about these caves? 👍
There is an interconnected web of cavers from every area all over the world who work together to locate explore explore and share information on caves within group members.
Because just walking outside and trying to find caves is an essential impossibility.
Jake the snake for the win
Have you guys ever caved in Charlie cave? Near bend
Not sure if specifically. Theres a lot of caves along that same road and obviously, in that area. But we are aware of the cave. Charlie's cave!
Great video but video and audio are not synchronised

H Ave you ever had problems with cave ins?
Cave-ins are a myth mostly derived from mine-collapses.

Are you absolutely sure you are enjoying yourselves ? 🙄😮
