This is crazy stuff. I wish there was a documentary made about these people, who seemingly lack any sense of self preservation :D
They just take comfort in the fact that the worst that could happen would be the sweet embrace of mother Earth.
Is that the end of the cave at the very bottom, or is it just the level wehere water starts and it could be possibly deeper?
March 2018 – another expedition of the same team added more than a kilometer of tunnels to the cave map. They also measured the depth of The Last Nemo Station terminal siphon lake. It was 8.5 m (28 ft) and so the total cave depth reached 2,212 metres (7,257 ft).
At least the siphon with the lowest surface level was measured, but it does not say if by diving one could get even deeper.
Potentially goes deeper.
How accurate are these measurements? What is the expected relative deviation? Or is it possible to measure the depth of caves up to the millimetre nowadays?
Best I can do is 5 meters.
Instant claustrophobia when i think about this
