Title: Caving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: seCrawler on July 07, 2018, 11:51:08 PM
Jesus Man, are there any getbiggers risking their lives with this activity?  You have to be kidding me!

Count Fortress out.

I mean, the folks who do this activity are gutsy, but in my opinion, also kinda nuts. Millions of tonnes of rock ain’t gonna cooperate if you find yourself in a pinch. And help won’t likely be much of any.

I love that horror flick The Descent (own it). I find it “horrific” not because of the monsters, but because of the cave-exploring shenanigans.

Being physically stuck, absolutely, is terrifying to me. And like I say, that rock ain’t giving a kunt hair. Ever.

Stupid. Why endanger yourself so needlessly and die horribly?

Man, that dude died upside down, and after he died, they sealed off the cave with with cement, with his body still in there.
Going in upside down, in a tight space like that...

I think SF1900 is a tremendous fan of Gerbil Spelunking...  Maybe  V³'s former lil' butty QV is too.

Thats hilarious.  I had to get up from the couch and leave the room during that movie.  I felt physically sick.

What's worse?

1) Being trapped and dying a slow claustrophobic death in a cave the size of a drain pipe.

2) Going down with the Titanic in freezing arctic waters while the band plays on.  Kate Winslet is not there.

3) Being torpedoed and sunk by a Japanese submarine on the USS Indianapolis in WW2 and then watching your fellow crewman being eaten by sharks one-by-one until they finally eat you.

The worst one would likely be number 2.

At least if a shark eats you, you probably die relatively quickly.

Never in a million years.  I had an MRI a few years ago (or as I called it, "the tunnel of terror").  As soon as my shoulders were pinched in and I couldn't move them, I panicked and they had to drug me up with Klonopin or something before I would go back in.

Lol. Found it loud but that's about it however the nurse told me several people press the button as soon as she leaves the room.

Was also jammed in their like a sardin. Real tight. Don't know how some morbidly obese bastards get in there.

This is some wreckless s@@t, taking kids down there. I get it they are the least likely to get stuck, but if the pig behind them gets stuck, we have a problem, Scottie.

It’s entirely subjective, but I’d most fear number one (1).

Ugh.  Me too.  I'd rather fall out of a plane without a parachute than die deep under the ground, unable to move.

That’s my thing, too.

As long as I can be mobile, I can “fight” ... in some way or manner.

If I’m absolutely stuck/trapped/pinned, I’m helpless to even try.

lots of skinny guys n this thread

a big guy would never consider caving, as it would be impossible due to his muscle mass

but since you considered, have an opinion etc it shows youre skinny otherwise the thought wouldnt even cross your mind.

Dude was 6 foot 200+ pounds. Med student. Went in head first into a waist deep opening, went further, found out that he couldn't turn around, found a fissue, that seemed to open up, went head down into to see if he could turn around. Sucked in his diaphragm, diaphragm expands, he gets stuck more.

A quick death, instead of hours spent upside down, in the dark, wet environment, in a confined space where you can't move your arms, probably hard to breath, and your fluids and blood pooling in your brain. With people talking and singing to you to keep your spirits up. And then others realize that they will have to break your legs to get you out.
You slowly die. And then people mourn. Your body is not taken from that place, but the cave is sealed off with your body still in it, stuck in the same place.

I wonder if they thought that in order to get him out, that his legs would break, so no go? But, he's dead. I would at least think that they could find a way to get his deceased body out for a decent burial, and then seal it off.

And so now, this has made me look up cave diving, and various forms of penetrative diving. As well as urban exploration aka draining aka urban spelunking, canyoning and mine exploration.

What I don't understand is the video said he couldn't find an area to turn around but at least four different people crawled in an out while he was stuck. He wasn't in to deep at that point.. that is the most depressing thought.

I'm sure they thought his leg would break off if they attempted to pull him out.

Can I also point out who knows what they'd fine living in those caves. Odd past time.

It might has been his size. I think he and his brother broke up into a team to find the birth canal. And he found a waist deep hole to explore and went in head first (unfortunate mistake). He kept going when he couldn't turn around (unfortunate mistake #2) and found that fissue and he thought that it would open up, so went he first down into that (unfortunate mistake #3). Got stuck even more when his diaphragm expanded.
The whole thing of trying to squeeze into places that you don't know has an exit, especially when you go head first and have little wiggle room is a recipe for disaster. We are not built like snakes or worms.

weird stuff

usually when stuff is this weird it is of a sexual nature

is it possible these guys are caving in the nude and when it gets tight they start oil themselves up or use peanut butter?

They suck and I have had way too many!!  Even the short tube freaks me out!
