  I set oxygen bottles around my office just in case it gets humid. That&apos;s how hard I don&apos;t want to cave dive.

  I mean having your luck run out is one thing, but having air bubbles cause an underwater mud slide that traps you in a cave which has never happened before in cave diving is a whole nother level.

  They were some of the best, most experienced divers and there&apos;s still no way they could&apos;ve known their bubbles would cause a cave-in because it had never happened before. RIP Parker

  Despite how tragic this story as a whole was, the police going in to retrieve Parker before his dive team even had the chance to was so sweet that it nearly made me cry. You can really tell that he must have been a great person

  Around 4 years ago, I was river rifting near the Royal gorge and our instructor pointed out a rock sticking out of the water. He told us that the rocks was hollow on the inside from erosion and that underneath the water there’s a decent sized opening. He then told us a while back a newly married couple decided to go on a river rafting trip for there honeymoon in the spring time (waters the highest and roughest in spring) and during the section with the rock, the husband fell off the raft and instead of trying to lay flat on top of the water he tried swimming for the raft. Before he made it he got sucked into the hole drowning in the process. The opening was too small to recover his body and it remains that way too this day. The rock bears the nickname “Widows Rock”. The though of suddenly getting sucked inside of a rock and not being able to get through the hole you came in is terrifying.

  An illustration of the cave layout and colored dots moving through them for the various divers would really help follow the events as you describe them. It can be difficult.

  Lesson are learned in blood as they say. &nbsp;The phenomena of the bubbles causing the restriction to fill up with sand and debris from the ceiling is something we would not have had the awareness of without this tragic incident.

  It’s so unfortunate that Parker didn’t make it in time. The irony is that he did have the time to save Bills life. Prayers to everyone involved. He had a good support system that tried their hardest to save him. Such a tragedy

  So so tragic. I feel for Parker’s wife and friends. Obviously I didn’t know the man but I hope he would be happy if he knew his death at least allowed his friend to escape. But I’m sure Bill has (had?) a lot of survivors guilt.
