Im not Saddam Hussein so I wouldnt be in that situation
My brain is fried. I thought this was the Saddam Hussein meme.
Nope. One of the most horrifying stories ever meme.
Spelunkers are crazy, out of every stupid thing you could do that has a high chance of killing you of you if you make a tiny mistake you choose spelunking?
But this hole was made for me!
😭
Drr drr dr
Exploring beginner friendly caves is really cool. But tight passages like this and the nutty putty cave one are absolutely terrifying, and I want nothing to do with it.
This IS the nutty putty cave, the pic is just rotated 90 degrees.
The picture makes my skin crawl because I read about the guy.
It gets worse knowing which way is down in that picture XD
Oh god so much worse. Just a nightmarish, horrid way to go. It seriously freaks me out imagining it.
My first and only cave experience was with a friend who had done the tunnel before so he knew where it went and was safe. It was slightly wider than my shoulders and started with climbing a rope up into the tunnel from a river and ended with a T intersection.

What would Saddam Hussein do?
He'd say "It was made for me! This is my hole!", and climb in.
The dialogue actually goes the other way, because manga panels (and speech bubbles and texts inside) are read right to left.
Oh yeah, You're right!
At the risk of whooshing, what does this have to do with being black or not?
Black people typically don't do stupid shit like climbing into tiny caves.
Didn't a bunch of miners just die in South Africa in a likely similar situation?
I think doing stupid shit is a universal experience.
Sorry, I should have clarified that I was referencing the stereotypical black American mindset as I've experienced it.
Fair enough.
I sleep like a baby knowing the risk of this happening to me is 0%
Average gambler IQ be like, "just one more cm bro"
God yeah caving is such a bad idea unless it's already confirmed safe to be in. In addition to the well-publicized risk of getting stuck in a pocket with the blood pooling to your head, you've got collapses and cave-ins, wild animals, noxious gasses, lack of air circulation, there are so many reasons not to go into a cave you don't already know is safe.
There are wine caves and cheese caves. I could spend several lifetimes exploring those.
Otherwise, no thank you.
Hoping I die from something else
Just pull yourself to your side and climb down

Easy, I’d prevent myself from being in that situation. What would you do, order a pizza?
