  The best thing about caving, scuba diving, and cave diving, is that you don't have to do any of them.

  things I learned from this video:<br>1. Always follow the plan<br>2. Don&apos;t panic<br>3. Never dive, ever.

  In a thousand years, archaeologists will discover all the bodies buried in cramped tunnels deep beneath the earth’s surface and posit that it was an elaborate burial custom.

  Mike having a 2 hr deco stop and just having to contemplate what just happened is gotta be the cruelest reality of the whole situation.

  RIP to Shane but wow, with the way things were going I thought surely he&apos;d take Mike down too. <br>Hope Mike has a clear conscience knowing that none of this was his fault. Incredibly smart man to make it out out of this alive.

  Mike is a hero. Incredibly amazing diving, morals, and mental strength. I wouldn&apos;t have managed to convince myself to go back for shane.

  Mike Young is a legend in cave diving. Possibly the best in the world and cool as a cucumber in the most harrowing of situations.

  Shane&apos;s death was tragic, but trouble was all but guaranteed the minute he decided to disregaurd their plan and follow after without Mike knowing. Even if his panic hadn&apos;t endangered Mike and lead to his own death it could have easily still risked the both of them. What if Mike hadn&apos;t been able to go back after they&apos;d run into eachother? Not only would Shane have been stuck, but he&apos;d have trapped Mike as well

  Every time when there&apos;s a cave diving disaster it&apos;s always instructors telling someone not to dive into a certain area and they won&apos;t listen. &nbsp;It&apos;s like their rebellious stage was the cause of their demise.

  I really don’t want to be “that” guy who blames the victims but those first two divers absolutely got what was coming to them. They had been explicitly warned not to go to that cave and were still only students. I understand curiosity is a powerful motivator but a diver has to be able to temper that curiosity with reasoning and caution; this incident proving they had no business diving in the first place.
