      Unfortunately, mother nature often doesn't do what you think it will. These caves that require permission to get into often won't let you in if flash floods are expected, and I'm sure this storm wasn't in the forecast. I've caved before, never to this level, but still, and it really is an experience unlike any other. I know why people do it. That doesn't make these situations any better, of course, but humanity is very stubborn.

    Spelunking is addicting. I first went into a non commercial cave with qualified explorers when I was ten. Went spelunking many times since. I have a piece of advice. Don’t go anywhere you could get stuck. Never enter a passage with anything or anyone pushing behind you, and never enter without your lungs fully inflated. When you express air, do not go forward. Have someone pull you back immediately, and of course, never go alone.

    I used to spear gun fish, near to the shore, but never ever on the ‘open’ shore line without a V line and a floatation raft. I don’t know how experienced you guys are but currents can run in opposite directions just one meter beneath the surface.
    No one lost their bearings or did anything wrong, it’s the sea that is totally unpredictable!
    But it’s something you learn quick, when for the first time you realise how a line and a float can save your life ! 💗

    I just discovered this series when searching for The Rescue. Amazing to watch these. Having watched a good handful of cave rescues, it's clear to me you never send the new guy first when him getting stuck means you all perish. They were very lucky. But the one giving instructions so clearly and reassuringly was just amazing -- all while describing how tense he felt on the inside! All rescuers are amazing people. What skills and courage!

    It was harrowing just to watch Jase being trapped in that freezing raging water for so long. Zac was amazing not panicking and saving Jase, reassuring him. Their other friend also helped using the stove to heat water to help slow down hypothermia. Also was impressed with Jase for not panicking. They all did very well! It's good to know that there are still REAL MEN out there.

      It was Andrew who save Jason and did not panic, also him who heat up the water. If I'm not mistaken Andrew is a paramedic, guess that's one of the reason he was so prepared. Zac was the one to go first to the surface to call the rescue while Andrew and Jason stayed behind on a ledge until they could move again.
