There is something very intriguing about watching incredibly hot metal going into water. It's like I basically know what's going to happen but I still want to see it to make sure.

This is one of those things where I wonder how the first person who figured out this was "safe" figured it out. Like, did they slip and fall in, and found another exit somewhere else and then word got out?

I wonder the same thing about mushrooms that we now know are edible.

I would hope they came in through the more reasonable entrance and found that this was an alternative from the inside.

I remember him getting some bad press for saying he has a 'cheeky few pints' before starting the days work and he could only respond 'you try doing this bloody job sober.'

If I remember correctly the full video pans over to the right and there's a massive opening that you could fit a car through.

The nicknames for sections of the cave are so good.

I helped with a cave rescue right outside state college. Boy scout got stuck in the "birth canal."

There was also a point in the cave called "highway step across" where you had to push your back against one side and your feel on the other and do that to cross a chasm that went down around 250 to 300 feet although you would stop falling and get hopelessly stuck way before that point.

No no no, you put fat people down there and when one gets stuck, you let them starve until they can be pulled out and then you go one size smaller.

One of the holes in Nutty Putty cave was called "scout trap" for this reason.
