I don't have claustrophobia, but thinking about this dude is about as close as I get. What an awful way to die, and I can't imagine how insane you have to be to enjoy this hobby.

You'd have to be really nutty.
Nutty putty?
Too soon
Dude had a very long time to contemplate and regret every choice he made that caused him to end up in that situation
Not that long. Once the blood started pooling in his head, things probably got weird.
This is the time where I'd be like you can break whatever is needed to get me out of this fucking hole. I'll scream but keep pulling.
IIRC if they broke his legs to get him out he very likely could have died from shock.
That sounds better
Couldn't they have sedated him or something? This is just an awful way to die.

This hole was made for me
You've clearly never heard of underwater spelunking
Cave diving is next level crazy.

Damn I thought Saddam Hussein had it bad
At least he had a fan and an air vent
There's only an 80° difference between then.
My exact thought lmao
Watched internet historians youtubevideo about the dude.Damn horrible situation...
Now go watch hbomberguy's video about plagiarism to be aware of how much of this Internet Historians video is stolen.
Cool, looks like a lot of video to watch, I'll take your word for it. Not too surprising thinking about it.
Maybe not surprising, but still disappointing. I liked IH videos, but knowing that a lot of it is stolen, puts a stain on it. But at least it explains why his videos tend to disappear from his channel.
Edit: The IH part starts at around 1:25:00 and lasts 20 minutes.
Today's MVP!! And I agree, it puts a smear over all the content.

We should really have a spelunking agency go around closing off these "no room to turn around" passageways because as fun as these caver types are personally, they're also the kind of morons who see a very obviously dangerous hole off the recommended path and think "LEZZDOIIIIIIIIT!" Basically most of the cast of "As Above So Below", "What's that, this supposed passageway to hell is shifting in ways to reveal passages that are unknown even to this expert catacomb guide despite his tag being on the walls? LET'S KEEP GOING!"
Abandoned mine explores too. Hey! Arsenic water and 100 year old dynamite! Geotechnical hazards! LETS GOOOOOO
YOOOO whats up dingleberries its ya boy Ser Sploresalot, and today we're dry-panning for gemstones in Wittenoom gorge!

The story about a man stuck in a cave that gave me nightmares forever, after watching the video, this new story can't hurt me anymore:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnI_oZKxzl0
Watch it, the way the story is told is great, a classic! 10/10 nightmares, will watch again!
Edit: I was made aware that the video plagiarised heavily an article by someone else, so I leave the link to the original work here too: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/544782/1925-cave-rescue-that-captivated-the-united-states-floyd-collins
Just FYI, that whole video is plagiarised from an article written by someone else.
The video credits an article in its description and its author: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/544782/1925-cave-rescue-that-captivated-the-united-states-floyd-collins Is it this one?
Yes, but the video has been deleted and reuploaded several times after been called out.
I edited my comment and added the original article. Again, thanks for pointing out the problem, really appreachiate it!
For any cave dweller who haven't seen it, here's Hbomberguy talking about the history of this video and it's plagiarism, as @Mago alluded to. https://piped.video/watch?v=yDp3cB5fHXQ&t=5071 (if the timecode doesn't work, it's arond the 1:24~25 mark.

Reading about the attempt to rescue him gave me claustrophobia.
Nutty putty cave incident for those that are curious.
okay but what if I'm only going to stay there 24 hours and then die? Do I still have to pay for a whole month?
Please arrange a professional clean prior to vacating or we will arrange our own and the cost will be forwarded to you. Thanks.

Yes. Plus security deposit. We're going to need to hire security for the crowd that will gather outside when we pull out your corpse.
