He fell ill in one of the deepest caves? That sounds ominous as fuck. What if he found some new bacteria or virus and getting him out is what starts the zombie apocalypse? 😱
Cave crawling is akin to mountaineering, in which it shares a lot of techniques. Except with a cave you don't exactly know what is after the odd opening. Ive known some of these people and they are unique. I saw reports that this cave had long vertices, so they had some effort getting him out of there on a stretcher.
something about stupid games and stupid prizes. I view this as the same type of dumb shit as the titan sub or that idiot in florida who keeps trying to cross to England in an aquatic hampster wheel: You have the right to do dumb shit, but tax payer money and lives should not be spent or endangered trying to get you out of dumb shit.
Yeah this is more along the lines of "researcher working with multinational team falls ill in remote cave" more than "dumb american does dumb thing and needs rescue". Man started throwing up blood and fell into a 3 day semiconciousness at which point he needed rescue.
