Just seeing this image gives me anxiety at a whole different level

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

No, I don't think I will

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No that guy is a med student. For what it's worth he really really really wants to get out of there.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Actually, he seems to be at peace with it now.

Jesus christ, I'm horrible.

I'll see myself out...unlike others.

Holy mother of God...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

I wasn't even trying. Just trying to keep my head down.

Aaw fuck...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

2 internets? Are they on floppies or CD-ROMs?

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

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.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Just FYI, that whole video is plagiarised from an article written by someone else.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 20 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but the video has been deleted and reuploaded several times after been called out.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 months ago

I edited my comment and added the original article. Again, thanks for pointing out the problem, really appreachiate it!

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

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?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ummm...

They never pulled him out. He's still in there buried in concrete.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Believe it or not, he also never paid rent.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Upset your landlord with this one neat trick!!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Please arrange a professional clean prior to vacating or we will arrange our own and the cost will be forwarded to you. Thanks.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

But I'm not vacating my cozy nook after I die. Do you still require tenants to pay rent when dead?

[–] [email protected] 32 points 9 months ago (2 children)

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!"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I like to imagine the horror of going down an "unexplored" hole, being unable to turn around or back out, and crawling face first into the previous explorer's boots.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Abandoned mine explores too. Hey! Arsenic water and 100 year old dynamite! Geotechnical hazards! LETS GOOOOOO

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)
