    Bro, you’re missing out. Bro just please squeeze into the 30 cm crevice with me bro. It’s so worth it, at the end well even see rocks bro, it will be so cool.

    The idea of a “silt out” cave diving is absolutely terrifying to me. That you can accidentally kick up some dust and then you’ll have no idea which way is up or down, that you’ll be flailing around in the water and won’t be able to see anything is nightmarish…

    I actually sat during lunch with 2 mountaineering record holders when I did my mountaineering training with two record holders who spoke about all the fuckups they had and how one spent the night in a biouvac in a crevasse once and how terrible it was

    Just what a guy doing his first mountaineering training needed to hear… That and on the first day of training you’re dumped in the middle of nowhere and told that everyone will fall in a crevasse during the training

    I have an acquaintance that is into going cave diving in Florida. I’ve seen the pics and nope.

    Mountain climbing and rappelling is a blast though. I’ll keep my rock climbing relegated to the fun indoor stuff with a good belay.

    My son thought this too and then I took him to do these things. Except by cave diving I mean jumping off a waterfall in a cave. He wasn’t thrilled when I handed him the ice axe.
