- Exploring an old mine to look at some old pumping gear valves and see how far we could get further on. Obviously dont try doing this if you havnt got a clue what your doing.
This is the non music edition due to popular demand. The original is still online. if you prefer it its here: • Exploring a huge hole ...

Hey, this really was a good video! ... without the loud, distracting soundtrack.
**agreed
that was exactly what I thought, the last one I watched was spoilt by it, would have preferred to hear them talking and the silence of the mine.
However... the soundtrack made for a cool fast video, too!!
Wow that is just amazing !! Very crazy flooring down there! Thanks for sharing :)
very brave man to go down the mine!
Great film Ben , gutsy investigation .When you see that pumping gear the size & weight , all just man handled -bolted in place all those years ago .
awesome man, thanks for sending me the link. also... i was right!! this version is better than the other one. lol you guys are cool, you dont need a soundtrack. thanks again... subscribing.
Wow, this is terrifying. Amazing video, though it does seem like it was incredibly risky to capture it!
Great explore chaps, you wouldn’t get me down there but I don’t mind watching you do it 😀
Great video with out the crap music.
you guys are brave going there, i was scared for the man at 3.52, thanks for posting the vid
Thanks for the new UL so much better without that annoying music👍🏻
That music is great!
nice video, better without the music! Nice to hear the native sounds and conversation.
+Ben o Cam - this version is great....much better, thanks for pointing me to it....put up more caving vids. Many years ago I used to be a prolific caver in S Wales...

Almost 20 months gone since this amazing video posted. Only 6k views ...
Nice.
AWESOME!
That’s a terrifying place 😱
good video:)
Great video guys, Is that Hawkes shaft with the pipework in?
Yes it is. It used to be open but now has a large concrete slab over it and only accessible from going down a nearby shaft in the woods and walking too underground . The one we use for access escaped the capping program as it’s so difficult to get concrete near I think !
What kind of mine ? What mineral were they extracted from this mine
Was there ever a Lateral Enterance to this mine or was that Vertical Shalt always the only way in or out?
vertical only im afraid
nice
Braver than me!
Eu NÃO Sabia Que Existia Seres Humanos Com Tanta Coragem.
Brave :)
What was it mined for? Material I mean
Beer.
When the upper side guy is gone
walking around in that shite strikes me as crazy
How in the heck did they get that massive plumbing down there?

I don't believe in telekinesis.
Well, you said they used their brains. So I'm assuming to mean with telekinesis, also known as psychokinesis, is the ability to move things with your mind.
Still, I think that's rubbish.
Ummm, no? I don't really see him as the type for expressing sarcastic humor.

You don't really believe a colorful cartoon horse is really conversing with you . . . . . do you?
No need to get upset. I can get you another bowl of Cheerios that hasn't been pee'd in, if that helps.
What diameter ropes are you using?
Think they are 10.5 mm
Okay cool I run 11mm
Clack valve, rare to find.
I think they would have scrapped it if it was easy to get up !
Scary place
Did it feel cold or hot down there?
+AtomicPunk23 well they had coats and jackets on so im guessing it was pretty cold.
Yes
May I ask what those black spikes are?
Just incase you are still interested, they are stalactites.. its where a very slow drip of water has flown down from the earth and solidified with the local minerals in it. they come in many colours depending on what minerals are in the earth
What did they mine there?
Tin, most of the mines in Cornwall are tin. It is famous for it.... dating back to the bronze age. Though there were a few Zinc and lead mines.
My bum went 2p 5p when that floor went under mateys foot I bet he felt like he turned to stone
Must of been some work to dig that shaft out even if they did blast
You boys need a canary on your shoulder lol
Nice pink suit
makrs you weaker
What an incredible mine to find - looks like the water level is quite variable. why is that?
this mine is connected to the county adit so slowly drains after no rainfall for a bit
Hope you sealed that up properly when you'd finished.
Of course. There’s a bar which unbolts which we always put back in. It’s in our interest... if a kid falls down and dies they will concrete this and many others like it over.
Ben Was Cam 😂
I like to think
If this was a mine
Then the miners must've been really stupid
The first rule is dont dig straight down
Nope. this is how as above so below started no way...😂
Explore? Mines had blueprints.
I guess it was easier to enter
without looking for paperwork.
The mine plans were quite vague and also over 100 years old so how they left it is not what it is like now. I do have copies of the mine plans of this area if they are of interest as they available from the county records office.

I would've fallen and died
