No. End of comment.
Underwater cave diving is one of the most dangerous recreational activities out there. Hundreds have died doing it and it requires hundreds of hours of specialized training
i’m proud of you of getting out and being so strong x
I know this is enjoyable for you, but I couldn't do it. Just watching this video made me panic, and I'm not a chicken by any stretch of the imagination.
Is it weird that I get anxiety from these things but love watching people get stuck? Like I know it could be fatal getting stuck because if you’re upside down you suffocate but it’s just fascinating looking at these thing
Where's the footage with commentary?
Idiot
Only thing worse than a cave is an underwater cave
Amazing go pro footage of him telling the story ?
And he’s gonna keep going until he’s actually stuck…..
Shit, I broke my foot and stop riding motorcycles after about 12 years of riding. I saw the sign ?
You my freind win the most s are stories award..
Not only is he insane enough to go into a cave but also he goes to the one that is underwater good job mate
Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
still don't understand why people cave dive.. bloody terrifying
Well, when you play stupid games you win stupid prizes.
So the rock just fall and blocked the way that he came in and he found a little room above the rock so he could get out same way he came in?
Yup…I'd quit after that one. Sure sign of what's to come!!
He'll probably never dive Alone Again
been diving over 20+ years / never want to attempt cave diving in any capacity… and I'm not Claustrophobic…why take a chance…
lol so your scariest dive was swimming over a small rock ? pfft you a weak one.
Then stop doing these death show off to produce video and collect money in youtube
it terrified me going into your cave mind.
Happened to me during sex when I dived in…a big cliterous wall trapped me…fortunately i survived but my go pro is still in the cave????????
How did he fall down underwater?
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes… this guy is just asking for an early retirement.
John Jones is a way better cave die-er than you
So a rock fell down on his line or what
Glad you got to tell that story and not the news about a body recovery. Lot's of risk with cave diving. It's a rush to watch others do it.
yup this just further justifies my fear of this shit
No way in hell!!.. NOLP .. NEGATIVE!!
i like how he tells the story with his eyes closed to demonstrate that he couldn’t see
Lol
You can also collect stamps as a hobby. I have some near death experiences with that but no-one believes me.
Extreme Stamp Collecting. Madness.
People are strange.
Wow my worste fear I had to stop watching it to relax then go back and watch u I seriously felt like it was me in there or I was in there with u
nazi
Drowning probably would have been better then being stuck upside down for 24 hours like John jones in nutty putty. I’ll stick to masturbation thank you
Sounds like a good time.
Who's here after Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone's story????
CERRONE ROGAN BROUGHT ME ERE
serious scarey hit man balls to the diver hey
Do you want some anxiety and depression on the house? Keep watching these videos smh ??
Rule number one of cave diving…NEVER DIVE ALONE!!!
Thats why you just sit on a couch and watch soaps
A cave dive? Never ever!
Yep panic almost killed you
WISH TO DEAD, EVERY TIME PEOPLE GO IN TO THE CAVES ??? OR WHAT'S THE GAIN OF DOING THIS ?
Nope.
