  Speaker 2: Our weekly uploads. All right, let's get into today's stories.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Nicknamed the Great Gray Green Greasy, the Limpopo River is
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: one of Africa's largest rivers. It serves as a border
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: between Zimbabwe and South Africa, and it also happens to
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: be one of the most dangerous.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Places on Earth.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: A town in South Africa called Falibora sits on Limpopo's shores,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: and all of its residents know they're never supposed to
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: step foot inside of the dangerous waterway, but not all
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: of their residents take that guide in seriously. On January first,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: twenty ten, Falibora resident Mariska Bitendog, along with her boyfriend
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: and six of their other friends, had been out all
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: night partying celebrating the new year. They had had a
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: considerable amount of alcohol over the course of the night,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: so as the sun was coming up in their inebriated state,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: they decided they wanted to take an early morning dip
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: in the Limpopo River. So they head over to the
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: river and while initially they all seemed really eager to
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: get in the waterway, it was only Mariska that was
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: brave enough to do it. So the rest stayed on shore,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: and Mariska jumped in the river and jumped right out again,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: and she survived, and everyone was very impressed with her,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: and so she's confident, and so she does it again,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: this time going a little bit farther out into the
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: river before coming back on shore.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Now she's really confident.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: She's done it twice, and so she said, hey, who
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: wants to come with me for a third time in
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: And the group said no, we're still good and you
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: really shouldn't push your luck. This is not safe, and
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: she said, I don't care. I'm going in for a
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: third time. So Mariska gets in the water and by herself,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: she swims out on her back about fifteen meters away
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: from shore. She turns and waves at the group and
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: smiles before she's violently pulled under the water. There wasn't
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: even time for her to scream. Her boyfriend immediately jumped
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: into the water to try to pull her out, but
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: he knew where she was and there was no way
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: he was getting her back. The other nickname for the
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Limpopo River is Crocodile River, and Mariska unfortunately had fell
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: victim to one of its apex predators. But it's not
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: just drunk partygoers that fall victim to these crocodiles. Unfortunately,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: for the residents of Zimbabwe, because of the extreme hardships
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: they have to face, many of them had been forced
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: to flee the country and crossover of the Limpopo River
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: to try to gain entry into South Africa, and many
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: of them will die trying. On April eleventh, twenty fourteen,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Zimbabwean and South African police discovered this crocodile infestive cave
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: right near where Zimbabwean residents will try to cross over
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the Limpopo River and inside of this cave were the
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: remains of fifteen people that presumably tried to cross over
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and were caught by crocodiles. The discovery of this cave
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: and the fifteen people who lost their lives inside of it,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: while tragic and certainly gruesome, it only represents a fraction
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: of the total number of people who have died trying to.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Cross this river.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming is one of the most
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: remarkable and beautiful places on Earth. Not only is it
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: renowned for its biodiversity, which includes some incredibly resilient microbial organisms,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: it's also home to one of the worlds so called supervolcanoes.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: This supervolcano sits atop one of the world's largest magma bodies,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: fueled by an upwelling plume of superheated material. This dynamic
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and violent subterranean plumbing means the water bodies at the surface,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: the famous Yellowstone Hot Springs, are highly acidic and incredibly hot.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: If you were to ignore the countless warnings around these
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: hot springs telling you to stay away, do not go
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: in the hot springs, if you were to ignore those
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: and go in one or more accurately, fall in one,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: this is what would happen to you. First, your body
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: would register that your skin was bathing in waters exceeding
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: two hundred degrees fahrenheit. This would hurt like nothing you
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: can possibly imagine, but it would only hurt as long
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: as your nervous system was able to register pain, which
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: would only be for about one minute or less. At
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: this temperature, your skin would begin to quickly break down
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: and disintegrate, and your blood vessels in your underlying dermis
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: would rupture, causing rapid blood loss. Some underlying skin layers
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: would not break down, but they would lose all of
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: their water and become tough and blackened, and your underlying
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: subcutaneous fat would bubble off as well. All in all,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: this is known as a full thickness burn, and it
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: would occur in about one minute. In these waters, your
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: nervous system would enter a state of shock and become
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: irreversibly damaged, which would lead to most, if not all,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: of your organs to fail. If the heat stress has
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: not already done that to you, you would be dead
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: within two to three minutes, and then at that point
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: the acidity of the water would take over. Within a
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: few hours, your body, including your skeleton, would be completely
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: dissolved into absolute nothingness, and for anyone who falls in
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: but manages to climb out again before being dissolved, they
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: are not out of the woods. Many of those people, unfortunately,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: will die hours, days months later due to complications from
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: the burns. On June seven, twenty sixteen, Colin Scott and
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: his sister Sable went to Yellowstone.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: To see the famous hot springs.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: The siblings were exploring the Norris Skuyser Basin, which is
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: the park's oldest and hottest thermal area, when they decided
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to leave the safety of the boardwalk and walk past
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: all the scigns telling them do not leave the boardwalk,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: this is dangerous. Turn around, they decided to walk past
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: all of those and venture out off the course. They
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: walked approximately two hundred meters away from the path to
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the edge of a hot spring that was not really
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: part of the main tour, and they were just standing
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: there when Colin apparently tripped and fell into the hot spring,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and his sister was just not able to do anything.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: She knew she couldn't go in after him, and he
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: very quickly sunk below the surface and didn't come up again.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: She ran back to try to get.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Help, but by the time they got back to the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: edge of the hot spring, he was gone, and in
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: fact the only thing they would find of Colin Scott
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: was his flip flops. Since eighteen ninety Colin Scott, along
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: with twenty one other people have died by falling into
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: these hot springs. There is a remote cliff face in
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: northern England that rarely gets turists. If you were standing
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: in front of it, you would see this little stream
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: that went into a break in the limestone. It's this
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: little tiny hole, and that stream is called the Mossdale Beck.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: If you crouched down and walked through that hole, you
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: would be entering the Mosdale Caverns, which since nineteen sixty
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: seven have been permanently sealed off to cavers. Once inside
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: the mostdel cavern's entranceway, you could look down and see
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: that little stream, the Mossdale Beck would be going between
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: your legs, and then right in front of you it
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: would split in two distinct directions down respective tunnels. To
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the right, the water flows down seven miles of accessible passageway. However,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: most of it is incredibly tight and it's prone to flooding.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: As a result, fewer people have seen the far reaches
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: of the right side of Mostel cavern then have stepped
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: on the moon to the left. The water goes through
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: these impenetrable rocks that no one has gotten past. In fact,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: no one knows what's beyond these rocks. However, scientists have
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: determined the water that goes left at the entranceway will
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: re emerge eighteen days later, five miles away, nine hundred
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: feet lower, in a pool called the Black keldt The
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: massive tunnel system that we know exists but has yet
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to be explored that connects the entranceway to Black Keld
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: is referred to as the Missing Link. You would think
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: cavers from all over the world would be clamoring to
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: get inside that accessible side, the right side of Mostel caverns,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: and try to find a secret access point back to
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: the missing link, to be the first person to discuss that,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: to stake your claim and say you know that was me.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: But in fact, since the Mostel caverns was discovered in
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: nineteen forty one until nineteen sixty seven, almost no one
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: went in Mostel caverns. Endless tight water filled crawls with
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: names like drown or Glory made Mostel caverns feel like
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: too big of a risk to be worth it. But
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty seven, ten extremely fit, extremely experienced cavers said,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: you know what, we are going in Mostel cavern and
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: we are going to find that entrance to the missing link.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: So on June twenty fourth, nineteen sixty seven, these ten
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: cavers entered Mostel Caverns. They went right into the accessible
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: seven miles of passageway and they began their descent. And
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: it wasn't that long until two of the ten cavers,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: the two least experienced of the group, said, you know what,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I don't want.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: To do this anymore.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Got a bad feeling about this, but we don't know
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: the way out, and so they needed chaperones to leave,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and so two other cavers from the group had to
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: go with them. So four caves they leave Mostel Caverns.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: The other six are going to continue on.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: So when the four.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Got back to the surface, it was about five pm.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: They had been in the cavern for several hours at
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: this point, and when they went in, initially the weather
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: was great, it was beautiful, it was clear. Now they're
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: coming out again, and it had started to rain, not significantly,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: it was more like a drizzle, but they were a
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: little bit concerned because they knew the other six were
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: planning to be in the cavern until after midnight, so
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: they were just hopeful that the rain did not get
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: any worse. But just a couple of hours later, these
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: skies opened up and it rained like it hadn't rained
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: in years, just torrential downpour, and the four were really
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: concerned about the other six, so they went back to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: the entrance, hoping that maybe, you know, the other six
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: would have heard the rain, although it's very unlikely considering
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: how deep they were going to be. But they were
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: hoping that maybe they'd be coming out again and they
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: would see them and get them back to safety. But
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: when they arrived there, not only were the six not
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: out of the cave, but the actual entrance to the
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: cave was completely submerged in water. Earlier that day, when
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: the four cavers turned around and left the other six cavers,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: they continued on and they had made it about two
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: miles deep into these caves. They had passed the fabled
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: drown or glory swim, they had survived the knee wrecker passage,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: and they had bit their tongue as they squeezed through
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: the famously painful Umagooli Tunnel, now located hours away from
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: the only way out, So they are way into this cave.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: They were nearing the end of this distant section of
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the cave that they believed on the other end they
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: would find this hidden entrance into the Missing Link. All
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: they had to do was pass through the far Marathon section,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: which is a nine hundred foot tunnel that is only
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: ten inches high two feet wide, and you have to
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: wriggle through on your stomach with your face pressed against
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: a stream that runs through it, and it takes a
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: very long time to get through it. It's incredibly claustrophobia inducing.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: It's considered one of the most stressful things you can
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: do in caving. But considering how experienced these cavers were,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and the fact that they had come down there specifically
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: to get to this far point in the cave, you
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: got to figure that their spirits were high. They were
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: probably joking with each other as they're doing this awful thing.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: And then they made it about three quarters of the
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: way through this tunnel when someone must have noticed the
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: distant rumbling sound and said, hey, what is that? And
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: as they sat there listening trying to discern what the
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: sound was. It must have dawned on them that their
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: worst nightmare was about to come true. That was the
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: sound of surging water. This tunnel is about to flood.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: They began crawling faster and faster down the Marathon tunnel.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Not only was it very difficult to move quickly inside
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: of this very tight tunnel, but they also knew there
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: was nowhere to go. They're two miles underground. They must
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: have felt like the world of sunshine and fresh air
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: was suddenly an eternity away. The oldest of the group
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: was twenty six. The rest of them were all in
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: their teens, united.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Now by fear.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: The water came rushing in as they're all pinned inside
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: of the Far Marathon Tunnel and their face is already
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: up against the river, and now this river is surging
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: with water, and so they're all desperately trying to crawl
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: through this flooding tunnel. And the leader of the group,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: the guy literally in the front, John Ogden, who was
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: twenty six, He managed to get all the way through
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: the Far Marathon Tunnel to the space where they anticipated
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: finding that secret entrance into the missing link that wasn't there,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: but he found above him there was a small fissure
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: in the rocks there was an air pocket, and he
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: managed to get his head up into the space right
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: as the water in the Far Marathon Cave completely submerged,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: so any of the cavers in there they drowned. Inside
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: of the Far Marathon, the bubble that he was in
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: was a little bit bigger, and so some of the
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: cavers managed to get in there, and they tried to
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: clamber into this air pocket as well, but ultimately there
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: was only enough room for one person and John was
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: the only one up there, and so as the water
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: levels filled the room he was in up to his neck,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: everyone below John drowned.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Now we don't know.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: If John literally kept other people from getting into this
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: air pocket with him. All we know is it can
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: only hold one person, and ultimately John was the one
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: who was left inside.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Of this crevice.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: But this air pocket was really just delay saying the
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: inevitable because there wasn't very much air inside of it,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: and John's two miles below the surface, there is no
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: way anyone is going to get to him in time,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: and so he ended up dying a couple days later,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: and when they found him, he was still in the
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: air pocket trying to get one last breath.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: What I've not.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Covered in this story that I would encourage you all
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: to check out is there was this incredible effort to
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: try to save these cavers before anyone knew they were deceased.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: There was this hope that maybe they found an air
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: pocket and they were still alive. And so they basically
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: created this artificial dam that was very precarious. The water
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: could at any moment spill over, and it provided just
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: enough drainage inside of this cavern for some of the
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: best cavers in the world to go into the cavern
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: to look for them. And so they went into this
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: cavern knowing at any minute that makeshift dam on the
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: surface could break and they will one hundred percent drown
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: in here. No one's coming to get them. They had
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: to crawl through the far Marathon tunnel all the way
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: down at the bottom to get to the lost cavers,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: and ultimately, when they discovered they were all deceased, it
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: would have been impossible to remove their bodies, and so
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the decision was made to leave these six cavers where
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: they died and seal off the cave permanently, so in
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: nineteen sixty seven they stealed it off and they now
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: treat mostel caverns like a gravesite and no one goes
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: in it.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: So that's going to do it.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Guys. If you found the secret in today's episode, let
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: us know in the comments what it is and where
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: you found it. So give us the timestamp, and if
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: you're the first to do that, we'll pin you at
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: the top of the comments section. If you enjoyed today's
