Imagine the three of you get to about 50m inside, where you approach a really narrow pass. The leader squeezes through, you follow after a couple minutes of writhing around. Theres just about enough space for you to crane your neck around to see the third member of the team completely stuck in the pass, one arm pinned to their side. Up ahead theres a dead end, and not enough room for the team leader to turn around. You're all trapped in a line, unable to move more than an inch forwards or backwards, less to each side, with no means of communication, left to watch an air pressure dial ticking to zero, before which someone will probably start thrashing in panic, kicking your mask off and ripping your regulator from your mouth. Suff of fucking nightmares.
Exactly. If they're THAT curious to see what's in there, send a freaking robot with a camera! Some risks are just not worth it. I'm not even really claustrophobic but just watching this gives me the creeps.
The first guys in must have been incredibly brave/skilled, since there was no assurance you could ever turn around. Now, as a cave diver myself and having viewed this numerous times, it's not so bad. You know the cave is short and there's space to turn around at the end. (I just randomly happened to see the folks who videotaped this on a television show explaining the cave).
filly07 - Agreed ! 30 years diving experience, from recreational to wrecks, I wouldnt do this for anything in the world. Every crevice they squeeze through, I'm thinking "got in, but can I get out". I watch these occasionally just to scare the crap out of myself...
@@GVNZXLEZ try and search for cave diving story part one(on RUclips)should be all CAPS lots of footage of sketchy ass cave dives with equipment they made themselves lol big ass nope I watch that shit when im high af
I've experienced so many equipment issues during my dives that I could not go to a place like this where a single failure means death. I know where my luck is and what life tried to warn me about lol
I quit cave diving after a near-death experience with a bunch of mono-filament fishing line in a cavern in Florida. I have taken my tank (only one, duh!) off and pushed it through small holes, but NEVER anything like this! This is utter madness! The bad part is, there was NOTHING I saw in this video worth seeing down there!
It's not about seeing something incredible, but exploration. Btw if you had to remove your gear to fit through a hole and you only had a single tank you most likely have no idea what you are doing and were taking more risk than these well trained guys
I live near a famous cave diving site in fl called eagles nest. Just about every year people die in there. I dont think its tight like this, but its so long, people get lost, or run out of light.
If I was ever going to do this I would install a tiny, remote-controlled explosive device in my dive-buddy's brain so I could steal his air if necessary
If you got stuck you would obviously run out of air but as you did so you would start to get tired then become sleepy and just not wake up. As long as your not claustrophobic it theoretically should be painless.
Wow, you guys are something. I've done wreck, cavern and mild technical diving, I've rock climbed and jumped out of airplanes, and there's no way I'd do that. I wouldn't even go into a place like that if it was bone dry. That takes maintaining you composure to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. Amazing.
But what is the point? I'd understand if it opened up to some hidden cave that very few have seen, but to crawl around in a tight space under water with all that shit to see nothing makes no sense.
I guess is the challenge itself. I’ve been watching caving the last few days and thought it was insane. Then I find this one that is also underwater, no words.
Imagine those rescue divers in Thailand had to do it in muddy zero visibility water with much stronger currents to find those boys in the cave. Apparently it took them several hours to reach the boys. So take the fear factor of this video and multiply it 10 folds. That’s why people do it. So they’ll be ready when someone’s child is stuck in a cave. This shh--t is more heroic and ballsy than anything you see in the movies. Glad there are people like this in this world.
Agent X -- I have tried all the techniques in the book but this drug cartel guy ain't telling jack on his organization. Its a dead end. Agent Y -- Show him the "No Mount cave diving in Wisconsin" video 10 minutes later Agent X -- got the boss's name, his wife's, mother in law's, cat's, size of the house, bathroom, everything.

@@keithsugueymccartneymelara7701 lol.. your reply popped up in my notifications and it took me a while to figure out what this video was. Added another view and additional chills down my spine too.
This is one of the most insane things ive ever seen. I would bet that most experienced cave divers would even do this. As a skydiver with over 200 jumps i understand taking risks for something that your passionate about but this is just completely mad!
This, this is so, Incredibly “STUPID.” Both are, INCREDIBLY, members of the ever expanding village, idiots. You should see what some of the worlds absolute best underwater cave divers / cave rescuers have to say about this kind of diving. Here is how dangerous this kind of diving is. There is, no mount cave diving. And then, there is flat out shit-for-brains insanity. The chances of getting anybody out that dies in these type of restrictions?? 1 CHANCE IN 10. That’s it. Period. There is a channel here on RUclips called, “DIVE-TALK.” and on their channel on a regular basis they have what is considered the law crème de la crème of extremely experienced under-water-cave-divers / cave-rescuers. People like Ed Sorenson from Marianna Florida. (The names that you will read are people that are considered the absolute best on our earth right now. And you should see and hear what they have to say about it these type of restrictions. Jill Heinerth Who is considered the absolute best underwater female cave diver today. There is no other female that can’t even come close to matching her. Rick Stanton. His name, his underwater cave diving and rescuer prowess, speaks volumes. John Paul Volanthen. He is a British cave diver who specialises in rescues through the Cave Rescue Organisation, South and Mid Wales Cave Rescue. And, the British Cave Rescue Council. In 2018, he played a leading role in the Tham Luang cave rescue. He cave dives as a hobby and conducts rescues as a volunteer. And mounting an underwater rescue in places like this when some absolute idiot just has to go in there and he dies or she dies. Sorenson began diving in 1995 and within a few years expanded to cave diving. In 1999, he joined International Underwater Cave Rescue and Recovery (IUCRR) as one of the original members and later founded Cave Adventurers in Marianna, Florida in 2003. Sorenson became a local hero in 2012 after four rescues that year and was featured in the Duracell series Quantum Heroes. For his efforts in 2012, Sorenson was awarded the Diver’s Alert Network Hero Award, Heroic Merit Awards and the Instructor Trainer of the Year from the Professional Scuba Association International. Due to his experience with the Vortex Spring cave system, Sorenson was involved in the 2010 search for missing diver Ben McDaniel. After an extensive search Sorenson believed that McDaniel was not trapped in the cave because of lack of evidence and disturbance to the cave commonly seen after a diver passes through. He stated, "The last place I searched was pristine, without a mark that a diver had been there. It would be impossible to go through that restriction without making a mark on the floor or ceiling. He's not in there." In February 2019 Sorenson, along with Mike Young, successfully conducted two body recoveries from Dudú Lagoon in the Dominican Republic. In April 2019 Sorenson successfully rescued Josh Bratchley, a British cave diver who assisted in the rescue of 12 boys and their soccer coach from a Thai cave, from Mill Pond Cave in Flynn's Lick, Tennessee. If there is about four more I could list but for me to do that and then expelled upon each one would take me a while. All of these people know each other very well. And all of them appear on the channel called dtalk on RUclips on a regular basis. And all of them condemn this kind of underwater insanity
@@connorraab yes I’m talking about a standard regulator set up like he’s using. You can also close the valve on a rebreather and take it out of your mouth...
@@Robert_H_Diver no mount is essentially sidemount configuration but banded together and pushed in front of you. Reg switching is roughly every 300 psi to keep balance in side mount. Cave diving always rule of thirds on OC, CCR is a game changer. Tight restriction, loved when he took his helmet off! Looks like good flow and rock on rock…I’d dive it!
I've been diving for 8 years now, but I don't understand the appeal of cave diving. Never have, never will. It just seems so dangerous and there is really nothing to see.
Like a big underwater cave would be cool... But this? absolutely no way. looks like there was nothing interesting down there but extremely tight spaces lol
Aymer de Valence I was certified by SSI back in 2005. first dive was in breakwater cove close to Cannery Row in Monterey. Done most of my diving in Honduras. specifically the Bay Islands and at Puerto Cortez. Anyways, instead of being a jackass, why not try diving?
You're great! After 21 years of scuba diving in the sea and sometimes lakes, I'm learning cave diving, and the technique in this video is very inspirational for me...even if will pass many years before I can do something similar.
If they get stuck, thousands of dollars if not more would be diverted to what would likely be a futile rescue attempt, all in the name of discovering what amounts to the ass crack of the world. I dunno man.
All i can say is WOW! I had a panic attack just watching it.. You three are braver than astronauts.. I am a diver and would never have the guts to do this. I salute you ! ! !
This is insane. This is the first cave diving video I have seen where I was almost having to look away. Totally gives me the creeps. These guys are true adventurers.
Been contemplating trying cave diving for a while. I'm an experienced diver and I took up caving a year ago. Done a variety of challenging caves in the UK. Still not sure if I'm brave enough for this. The visibility is excellent in this cave, and I suspect you'd NEVER get anywhere near viz like this in Britain, with squeezes just as tight. The thing about cave diving is this doesn't look fun. I love the challenge of caving, and diving for that matter, but the challenge is always rewarded with the fact you get to see cool stuff on the way. This is just a submerged tunnel and nothing else.
Certainly hope so. I think they will, but it's one hell of a challenge given that the kids can neither swim nor dive. If you first experience of the water is a five-hour (probably longer) cave dive after you've been trapped underground for a month then it's going to put extreme psychological pressure on them. I think the key thing to remember is that the boys are in good health and they're all small and skinny. Given they play football I imagine they're all physically fit too, so there's no physical reason they can't do it. With full face masks (so no risk of regulators getting ripped from their mouth) and a slow and steady trip they should be able to. The killer in these situations is panic though, and I'm not quite sure how you train/prepare them for that when they're going from no experience at all to the most extreme end of an already dangerous sport. From what I've read on the UK caving forums, the boys seem to be in good spirits. The caves are challenging, but the most difficult stretch is only 30 m long. Other than that very narrow squeeze they should be fine.
I'm a cave diver, but this doesn't look fun. This type of cave diving is on the extreme side. There are absolutely gorgeous caves with plenty of room located in places like Tulum, Mexico and Florida. If you have a chance, take a holiday to the Tulum or Playa del Carmen area in Mexico and you can do guided cavern tours in the cenotes. That's a good way to find out if you'd be interested in pursuing cave diving.
Love it, the music really adds suspense. Thank you I could never do this and I get it but this is extreme 🤩. That current looks strong like a northeastern fall wind.
We need to be thankful for guys like these and not criticize , when a situation like the one in Thailand where the kids got stuck in a cave ,I believe the first guy to reach the kids was a cave diving volunteer from Europe
I'm a scuba diver but don't think i would ever want to go into that tight of a cave, you are braver than I am! Don't you guys worry about tearing up your dive suites on all the rocks? My wetsuit cost $400 and I don't really want to replace it any time soon! lol
OMG I cannot believe I came across the video that started my cave dive video watching obsession!!! I’ve been obsessed for 2 years now after seeing this. Idk why… I have claustrophobia. But I can’t look away!!!
My wife are DMs and have been cave diving around the world, this type of diving is very dangerous and has many pitfalls. This should never be attempted by amateurs or people who are not professionally trained as cave divers. Even with the best training things can go wrong at every turn.
I've been caving, got stuck a couple times, but underwater...that's another story....bigger kahunas than mine for sure! Good luck,,,well skill and guts with lots of glory I'm sure
This is without a doubt the only type of cave diving I will never do. If the cave doesn’t want me to get through then I’m not gonna try and go through. That’s a recipe to never have anyone find your body
do i want to try cave diving? -Yes. Would i ever do this kind of "cave" diving? -Fock no... i feel totaly stressed out just by looking at this video.. what if you get stuck, xD
Dark Silver yea or what if you accidentally disconnect your breathing toluene or tank. You tug on it a little too hard and you are fucked. An ambulance is not dive down there to save u. CPR after a couple of hours of not breathing will not help you.
Yes, I know it is stupid and irrational and there is nothing to fear about and there is nothing dangerous in that situation, but: I have a really bad fear of crawling through >100 metres long horizontal shafts filled with water.
I could never, will never do this, but it gives me shivers and anyone that can conquer fears enough to do this is super human in my book. Crazy sport!!!
I was going to comment the normal response to something like this, but words can't describe what im feeling watching this, i guess you do this to prove something to yourself. Hats off to you fine divers.

As a Wisconsin native, we work on our tolerances constantly and can handle alcohol, the bends, nitrogen necrosis from deep dives pretty well. The only thing to so in this state is stuff like this, my hometown only had 27 bars and 3 gas stations in it, and drugs. Port had a population of 15k at the time.
Ohhh no way. As much as I'd like to explore SPACIOUS underwater areas, this is making me freak out just watching. I'm the pansy who panics when I wake up under my blanket lol. You are brave and have my respect.
Well, if you know someone else about your size got through its one thing, but whenever I dive a tight cave I can’t stop thinking about the first guy who went through, not knowing if it ever opens up or allows you to turn around. Because backing out of something like that would really suck
I’ve been watching people do this in reg caves. And I’m terrified. Come to find out this weirdo is doing the exact same thing... under water... The people in this world.
Who ever was the first person that thought, you know I should try crawling inside this hole to see where it goes?

If you first experience of the water is a five-hour (probably longer) cave dive after you've been trapped underground for a month then it's going to put extreme psychological pressure on them. I think the key thing to remember is that the boys are in good health and they're all small and skinny. Given they play football I imagine they're all physically fit too, so there's no physical reason they can't do it. With full face masks (so no risk of regulators getting ripped from their mouth) and a slow and steady trip they should be able to. The killer in these situations is panic though, and I'm not quite sure how you train/prepare them for that when they're going from no experience at all to the most extreme end of an already dangerous sport.
From what I've read on the UK caving forums, the boys seem to be in good spirits. The caves are challenging, but the most difficult stretch is only 30 m long. Other than that very narrow squeeze they should be fine.
I'm a cave diver, but this doesn't look fun. This type of cave diving is on the extreme side. There are absolutely gorgeous caves with plenty of room located in places like Tulum, Mexico and Florida. If you have a chance, take a holiday to the Tulum or Playa del Carmen area in Mexico and you can do guided cavern tours in the cenotes. That's a good way to find out if you'd be interested in pursuing cave diving.
I'm very happy with the good ending in Thailand. Big respect for divers. I couldn't do it in a million years. 🙌✨
All you really get to see is the tank the
Just stumbled upon this oldie. Sitting here having a mild anxiety attack. Thx for that
Now imagine doing this with this soundtrack playing in your ears
Who the fuck was the first person who thought of this ? Oooh a hole in the water, lets enter.
im hyperventalating just watching this
Daniel Roth im getting claustrophobic
Daniel Roth same!!lol
This is even more frightening than when regular cavers going in tight caves, never mind underwater tight caves 😱😱
lmao the soundtrack makes it
Love it, the music really adds suspense. Thank you I could never do this and I get it but this is extreme 🤩. That current looks strong like a northeastern fall wind.
The sound of the didgeridoo really emphasised the connection with nature
i wouldnt go near that even with no water!
We need to be thankful for guys like these and not criticize , when a situation like the one in Thailand where the kids got stuck in a cave ,I believe the first guy to reach the kids was a cave diving volunteer from Europe
I was always waiting for the cave to open up :P Guess not. Great diving and strong minds here!
I'm a scuba diver but don't think i would ever want to go into that tight of a cave, you are braver than I am! Don't you guys worry about tearing up your dive suites on all the rocks? My wetsuit cost $400 and I don't really want to replace it any time soon! lol
Scariest cave diving video I've seen
Great video, thumbs up from us and cheers from sunny IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.
Such an awesome dive. You guys did a great job documenting it. Stay safe out there.
"Stay safe out there*"
* in there...
did they find bin laden?
Nope town population: me
says one weaboo to another...
Population: the vast majority of people watching this video.
And me
You are BRAVE and about 99% insane. VERY nice job and thank you for sharing! COMPOSURE and control. wow.
OMG I cannot believe I came across the video that started my cave dive video watching obsession!!! I’ve been obsessed for 2 years now after seeing this. Idk why… I have claustrophobia. But I can’t look away!!!
couldn't breathe watching it, no way would I do that! I panic when I can't get out of a tight t-shirt lol
Jajajajaja I love no fin diving!! You guys rock!!
This is for sure the best and extreme cave video that i have never seen! You are God Man!
ดูแล้วประ ทับใจมากการเข้าไปช่วยน้องยากแสนลำบากในการประครองถัง..คงลำบากมากนะคะขอบคุณ..นักประดาน้ำและทุกๆสาขาหน่วยงานขอเป็น1/แรงใจขอให้มีพลังพาน้องออกมาอย่างปลอดภัยอย่ามีใครเป็นอะไรอีกเลยนะคะ..พี่น้องร่วมโลกที่รัก
My wife are DMs and have been cave diving around the world, this type of diving is very dangerous and has many pitfalls. This should never be attempted by amateurs or people who are not professionally trained as cave divers. Even with the best training things can go wrong at every turn.
I've been caving, got stuck a couple times, but underwater...that's another story....bigger kahunas than mine for sure! Good luck,,,well skill and guts with lots of glory I'm sure
This is without a doubt the only type of cave diving I will never do. If the cave doesn’t want me to get through then I’m not gonna try and go through. That’s a recipe to never have anyone find your body
First I'm watching regular cave crawling now this. I'm done I'm watching the happiest show I can find
imagine getting a cramp mid-way through this
I thought exactly the same
Temperature of the water? Looks like a bit of a PIA, hats off the Richard, great video in an extreme environment!
How the hell was this recorded the camera seems to be floating around recording him by itself
Much respect, this takes "keeping calm" to a entirely new level
do i want to try cave diving? -Yes.
Would i ever do this kind of "cave" diving? -Fock no...
i feel totaly stressed out just by looking at this video..
what if you get stuck, xD
Dark Silver 4:28 *head gets stuck*
Dark Silver yea or what if you accidentally disconnect your breathing toluene or tank. You tug on it a little too hard and you are fucked. An ambulance is not dive down there to save u. CPR after a couple of hours of not breathing will not help you.
Annnd it's official. I have anxiety.
lolol
Yes, I know it is stupid and irrational and there is nothing to fear about and there is nothing dangerous in that situation, but: I have a really bad fear of crawling through >100 metres long horizontal shafts filled with water.
Just drink some of ye likker
I could never, will never do this, but it gives me shivers and anyone that can conquer fears enough to do this is super human in my book. Crazy sport!!!
Very nice. Great job!!
FOR WHAT PURPOUSE
fun, dumbass
@@thegrandnil764 that's not fun you dumbass
@@yavuzmarifet4528 dumass like you won’t know the fun in it
@@16_marvin68 what is the fun in it? this is a nightmare.
@@seljap_ fun is relative
Boy, what a creepy dive. Just watching the entry makes me panic.
It’s people like this who saved those boys in the Thai cave. Many thanks to their heroism and massive courage.
I was going to comment the normal response to something like this, but words can't describe what im feeling watching this, i guess you do this to prove something to yourself. Hats off to you fine divers.

This is the definition of taking it to another level
This gives me so much anxiety but for some reason I’m addicted to watching stuff like this.
What makes you think , hey guys lets go dive in a underground cave that is only 5 feet wide!
I enjoyed watching this, but you gotta be somewhat unhinged to do something that dangerous.
Joker’s watching this and thinking “what is this guy NUTS?”
More dangerous than we think, considering the wide angle lens of the camera. If it were no angle we'd have choked and closed the vid.
Very clean looking water
This just gave me next level claustrophobia
Why the hell is the music so scary? Fuck
marco huerta How is didgeridoo scary?
I feel claustrophobic just looking at that ... Just imagine getting stuck in there .
Unreal great stuff :) Respect !
My heartbeat is pounding watching this video, lol. I could not do that. Props!!!
An underwater drone could solve the problem
you mean a submarine?
@@gregoirelecler7361 A submarine wouldn't fit in there.
@@kilo393 what if it's a sub-submarine
Just when “claustrophobic cave diving” videos don’t give me severe anxiety anymore I had to search underwater cave diving
What were cave divers diving in before underwater cave diving?
As a Wisconsin native, we work on our tolerances constantly and can handle alcohol, the bends, nitrogen necrosis from deep dives pretty well.
The only thing to so in this state is stuff like this, my hometown only had 27 bars and 3 gas stations in it, and drugs. Port had a population of 15k at the time.
Speechless. You guys are truly crazy.
Ohhh no way. As much as I'd like to explore SPACIOUS underwater areas, this is making me freak out just watching. I'm the pansy who panics when I wake up under my blanket lol. You are brave and have my respect.
You have to have a genuine low regard for your own life to do something like that.
ReturnTrip Or just have great risk mitigation...
Or a sense of adventure. "There's no point in living, if you can't feel alive."
+briantravelman For as much as i love scuba diving and cave diving, i would get in a cave that freakin small
Briantravelman, sure looks to be a good chance of not feeling alive if you get stuck! Lol
Well, if you know someone else about your size got through its one thing, but whenever I dive a tight cave I can’t stop thinking about the first guy who went through, not knowing if it ever opens up or allows you to turn around. Because backing out of something like that would really suck
Nice music! Perfect for the tight spaces, lol.
That looks fun
why did the second diver switch mouth peices before the squeeze? Not a diver so lots of ignorance on my part.
I’ve been watching people do this in reg caves. And I’m terrified. Come to find out this weirdo is doing the exact same thing... under water...
The people in this world.
Ya'll looking at the diver, but the real MVP is the cameraman!
I believe there is no cameramen. Just go pro or any other small video recording device. There is no way another person would fit that cave.
Imagine suddenly having a panic attack and not being able to get out for like an hour to backtrack to the entrance
6:05 "wait a second, I'll take my helmet off, otherwise I won't fit through this mountain"
6:05
I've also been told in certain forms of adult entertainment having parts of the male antimony nailed to a wooden stool is considered "fun".
You can truly say to me: "we will give you a million dollars if you try this" and I would still doubt in doing so
