Action Cam Footage Captures what It’s Like to Get Stuck in a Cave as It Fills with Water

Consider this your terrifying action cam video of the week… or year. In a nightmarish four-minute video uploaded earlier this year, a man gets stuck in a narrow part of a cave while trying to get out. And as if being stuck isn’t horrifying enough when you’re under ground, it seems the cave is also filling with water.

This reminds us of the BASE jumper who captured his bone-crunching collision with a solid cliff wall, or the skydiver who got hit in midair and went unconscious while free-falling — there are some helmet cam videos that will haunt our dreams. This, we’re pretty sure, is one of them.


P.S. Although the video stops before the man gets out, several sources are reporting that he did get out. Apparently the original video description ended with “It took another three hours of crawling to get out the cave a different way.”
