Here's a close up of the text: You just know some jackass is in there right now disoriented and about to drown.
Well, there ya go. Same cave: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...bodies-recovered-dangerous-complex-caves.html I know trained divers are taking an assumed risk, but I can guarantee you like Joe Willie that some of the people who died here didn't have the proper training.
WARNING! Stop reading, don't watch, and go no further if you're claustrophobic! John Jones and Nutty Putty Cave in Utah, it's absolutely horrifying. This is one that I've never been able to laugh at, as dumb as he was. I'll tell it short style, but a guy in his mid 20s with moderate cave exploring experience made the last decision of his life. He got stuck in a small space upside down, rescue efforts were futile, and he died. No, no, a million times no. Just like Edgar Allen Poe's phobia about being buried alive, that's what this story did to me. John Jones inhaled and squeezed himself in to go farther, thinking the crevasse would widen. He was wrong.
When I was a kid I used to love exploring caves...squeezing into narrow spaces. Now it creeps me the fuck out.
Speaking of being in narrow spaces, when I first came out of a coma in 2003, I had a series of CT scans and MRIs long before I was released from the hospital. There's one that I clearly remember. I had ear plugs stuffed in my ears to stem the noise in case I became agitated and tried to move or get out. I had so much brain swelling that my primal brain didn't give a shit, and I was still having word salad conversations at best. I almost fell asleep even with all the pinging and banging. You can't explain a coma unless you've been in one. Anyway, when I got out of that contraption, a woman started screaming, "Don't put me in that thing! Don't put me in there! Please don't put me in there!" I said to the old man, "I guess she did time in jail." Coma stories, lol. I have so many.
I've never been in a coma...but I've been knocked-the-fuck out many times. Boxing takes its toll...I have some neurological problems to show for it. I had a scan a few months ago...the tech asked if I wanted music thru the headphones. I said yeah...some jazz would be cool to drown out the noise. She slides me in...the machine starts doing its thing...then the music starts...loud as shit...distorted and painful. I couldn't do a thing about it till the procedure finished. Next time I'll bring my own music.
Florida man lights up his farts in his meth lab, blows it up. Literally. https://www.popdust.com/florida-man...t-lighting-meth-lab-explosion-1892341001.html
instead of a million times no, lets just go with door number 2 monty and snooze out on the beach please, thankyou! That was vicious Jetophile, wow!
Yeah I had to actually go look and see if it was real, it it had been I wouldn’t have been surprised at all.
Not a new blurb of deadly selfie idiocy or the like, just a general observation. I watch all the true crime shows that are out there (some of them serious, some of them flat out schlock). What always amazes me is the abject stupidity of 99.9% of the murderers. Crazy ex-girlfriend, possessive abusive husband, gambling debt (there goes the life insurance policy I just upped to a million dollars!), jilted lovers, custody battles, nasty divorces, etc. The common denominator? "They'll never know it was me." C'mon now, you're the first name on the suspect list and you should be executed just for being a moron. One of the funniest ones I ever saw was this older guy in England who murdered his wife for money. He reported her missing and then was - surprise! - suspected of offing her, so what does he do? He goes all transvestite and poses as his wife out and about town and also far from home base to make it look like she ran off. The best part was that he actually managed to pull it off for quite a while (close to a year, if memory serves) because people were calling the police and reporting seeing her alive. If you see some of the surveillance photos, he looked like wrestler in a frumpy dress and a bad wig, shuffling around in ladies shoes that were ill-fitting, and sporting a purse and shit. Yes, I shrieked. Just another example of precisely why eye-witness testimony and/or eye-witness identification is wildly unreliable. It's disturbing how many innocent people are jailed or worse because of it.
I remember seeing an episode of 1000 Ways To Die that mentioned this. It's reasons like this I will never ever ever go into a cave or mine shaft. Too much can go wrong. There was a prominent youtube channel (can't remember the name) where a guy would go all over the planet to explore old mines. He eventually disappeared. It's not worth it and I am so claustrophobic I cringe thinking about being stuck somewhere like that. What a horrible story. He left behind a wife and 2 kids when it could have easily been avoided. I can't imagine the thoughts going through his head at the time.
