The first recommended video when I searched for them was this one. Very cool, and confirmed for me that even though I don't have claustrophobia, cave diving is definitely not for me.

What they don't always touch on is how long they are in those caves for. They will be in the caves for 5+ hours, with a couple hours where one guy is solo and squeezing through areas with no hope of rescue if he gets stuck.

I am certain one of them is going to die in a cave after he went off alone and was crushed as he crawls under a breaking off flake or drowns when he gets turned around underwater. They don't have any sort of gas detectors either and have ignored serious signs that they are not in an area with breathable air.
