Speaker 1: There is a small hole in the ground in Australia
0:02
Speaker 1: that has claimed the lives of at least sixteen people.
0:05
Speaker 2: Today, I'm going to tell you what's inside of that hole.
0:08
Speaker 1: But before we get into today's story, if you're a

0:33
Speaker 3: All right, let's get into today's story.
0:47
Speaker 1: In nineteen thirty eight, a farmer in southeastern Australia decided
0:50
Speaker 1: to bring his horses to a watering hole on the
0:53
Speaker 1: other side of his large property. As he was leading
0:56
Speaker 1: the horses across this big, wide open field, one of
0:59
Speaker 1: his horses suddenly just collapsed to the ground. The farmer
1:02
Speaker 1: ran over to see what was going on, but as
1:04
Speaker 1: soon as he got over to it, the horse had
1:06
Speaker 1: stood back up again and seemed totally unhurt. The farmer
1:09
Speaker 1: was puzzled because he had no idea why the horse
1:11
Speaker 1: fell in the first place, and so he looked down
1:13
Speaker 1: to see if maybe it tripped on something, and he
1:15
Speaker 1: saw on the ground right beneath the horse was this
1:18
Speaker 1: small hole, and so he moved his horse out of
1:20
Speaker 1: the way, and then when he came back to look
1:22
Speaker 1: at this thing, he saw it was only maybe a
1:24
Speaker 1: foot across, but when he peered down into it, he
1:27
Speaker 1: saw it was very deep, and so he got down
1:29
Speaker 1: on his hands and knees to get a closer look,
1:31
Speaker 1: and when his eyes adjusted, he could not believe what
1:34
Speaker 1: he was seeing. Ten or fifteen feet below the surface
1:37
Speaker 1: was this huge pool of clear water. The horse had
1:40
Speaker 1: just stepped into the roof of an underground cave, and
1:43
Speaker 1: so the farmer was really excited to see how big
1:45
Speaker 1: this cave was. And so he grabbed all his horses
1:47
Speaker 1: and he brought them back to the stable, and he
1:49
Speaker 1: got this long measuring rope with a weight at the
1:52
Speaker 1: end of it. So he runs back out to the hole.
1:54
Speaker 1: He puts the weight into the hole, and he begins
1:56
Speaker 1: paying out this rope and so down it goes ten feet,
1:59
Speaker 1: twenty feet, thirty feet. It just keeps on going and
2:02
Speaker 1: going until finally the weight hits solid land at one
2:05
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty feet, and so the farmer's like, wow,
2:08
Speaker 1: this is a huge cave. So he pulls it back up,
2:11
Speaker 1: thinking that's the bottom, but in reality it wasn't. It
2:14
Speaker 1: actually extended down almost three hundred additional feet. The farmer
2:17
Speaker 1: and his horse had just accidentally found one of the
2:20
Speaker 1: most beautiful and deadly freshwater caves in the world, called
2:24
Speaker 1: the shaft. The reason it's called the shaft is because
2:27
Speaker 1: the only way in or out of this underwater cave
2:30
Speaker 1: is through this hole in the middle of this field
2:32
Speaker 1: that this horse created. And it's literally a shaft that
2:36
Speaker 1: goes down eighteen feet until it reaches the surface of
2:38
Speaker 1: this massive underground.
2:40
Speaker 2: Body of water.
2:41
Speaker 1: The opening to this shaft is so narrow that cave
2:44
Speaker 1: divers they can't get into it with their gear on
2:47
Speaker 1: their backs, so they literally need to be lowered into
2:50
Speaker 1: this cave by themselves, and then their gear is lowered
2:53
Speaker 1: down after them and they put it on while they're
2:55
Speaker 1: treading water. The solid ground that the farmer's weighted line
2:58
Speaker 1: had touched at one hundred and twenty five when he
3:00
Speaker 1: believed he had reached the bottom of the cave, what
3:03
Speaker 1: he had actually touched was the top of something called
3:05
Speaker 1: the rock pile. The rock pile is basically this huge
3:09
Speaker 1: underwater pyramid that looks like a rock pile that sits
3:12
Speaker 1: at the bottom in the middle of this huge underwater cave.
3:15
Speaker 1: And from the top of this rock pile you can
3:18
Speaker 1: go down it in all different directions, but once you
3:20
Speaker 1: get to the bottom, there's only two tunnels to choose from.
3:23
Speaker 1: There's one that goes west, basically down at an angle
3:26
Speaker 1: that dead ends at two hundred and sixty feet, and
3:29
Speaker 1: then on the other side of this underwater pyramid is
3:32
Speaker 1: the eastern tunnel, and that's much more treacherous.
3:34
Speaker 2: It goes down at a more steep angle to four
3:37
Speaker 2: hundred feet.
3:38
Speaker 1: The few elite divers that have explored the deepest recesses
3:41
Speaker 1: of this cave say there are three distinct stages to it.
3:45
Speaker 1: Stage one is from the surface down to one hundred
3:47
Speaker 1: and twenty feet the top of the rock pile. During
3:50
Speaker 1: the stage, the diver swims unobstructed and beautiful clear water
3:54
Speaker 1: with sunlight poking through the hole it's a very easy
3:56
Speaker 1: section of the cave, and there's a safety line that's
3:59
Speaker 1: anchored from the surface straight down to the top of
4:02
Speaker 1: the rock pile, so you have something to hold on
4:04
Speaker 1: to as you go down and back up. Stage two
4:07
Speaker 1: is where things get a bit dicey. Stage two begins
4:10
Speaker 1: at the top of the rock pile and extends down
4:12
Speaker 1: all the way to the bottom of the Westerly tunnel
4:15
Speaker 1: at two hundred and sixty feet where it dead ends,
4:17
Speaker 1: or down to the two hundred foot mark of the
4:19
Speaker 1: Easterly Tunnel, where you come to something called the drop
4:22
Speaker 1: off ledge, and it's quite literally a ledge in the
4:25
Speaker 1: middle of this tunnel, where beyond it there's a fairly
4:27
Speaker 1: steep drop off and it leads down to an area
4:30
Speaker 1: that's so treacherous it's got its own stage. Starting with
4:33
Speaker 1: stage two and then with stage three, there is no
4:36
Speaker 1: safety line to guide you in the direction you need
4:39
Speaker 1: to go, so you're on your own as soon as
4:40
Speaker 1: you reach the top of the rock pile, and so
4:42
Speaker 1: you make your way down any direction you want down
4:44
Speaker 1: the rock pile until you reach either of these tunnels,
4:47
Speaker 1: and as soon as you go into them, you immediately
4:49
Speaker 1: start to lose visibility because the sunlight cannot penetrate all
4:53
Speaker 1: the way into these tunnels, and so the diver becomes
4:55
Speaker 1: increasingly reliant on their flashlight. As such, they have to
4:58
Speaker 1: be very careful as they now avigate down stage two
5:01
Speaker 1: to not bump into the walls because doing so will
5:04
Speaker 1: knock the limestone silt off of the walls. It will
5:07
Speaker 1: create a cloud of it in their face. It will
5:08
Speaker 1: blind them. It's like being in fog where a flashlight
5:11
Speaker 1: can't push through it, and so the diver has to
5:13
Speaker 1: either wait for the silt to.
5:14
Speaker 2: Clear, which could take a very long time, or they
5:17
Speaker 2: have to swim blind.
5:18
Speaker 1: Also, anyone entering stage two and stage three they can't
5:21
Speaker 1: breathe regular air out of their tanks. There's too much
5:24
Speaker 1: nitrogen in regular air. The deeper you dive, the more
5:27
Speaker 1: nitrogen your body will absorb, and if you have too
5:30
Speaker 1: much nitrogen in your system, it can give you something
5:32
Speaker 1: called nitrogen narcosis, which is like being really drunk. And
5:36
Speaker 1: in extreme cases, people have been known to take their
5:38
Speaker 1: mouthpiece out and inhale water believing they're on the surface,
5:42
Speaker 1: or they'll confuse the direction up with the direction down
5:45
Speaker 1: and to get to the surface, they will swim straight
5:48
Speaker 1: down until it's too late and they can't get back
5:50
Speaker 1: up again. And so divers that are going to be
5:51
Speaker 1: in stage two or stage three of this cave will
5:54
Speaker 1: breathe a special mix of gases that are low in nitrogen.
5:57
Speaker 1: The final stage of the shaft Stay three is just
6:01
Speaker 1: from the two hundred foot mark of the easterly cave,
6:04
Speaker 1: so that drop off ledge all the way down to
6:06
Speaker 1: the bottom at four hundred feet.
6:07
Speaker 2: This stage is unbelievably dangerous.
6:10
Speaker 1: As soon as you drop off that ledge, all the
6:12
Speaker 1: sunlight goes away. It is pitch black, and the tunnel
6:15
Speaker 1: narrows considerably and stays incredibly narrow. In fact, many times
6:20
Speaker 1: divers have to squeeze themselves past sections where the rocks
6:23
Speaker 1: are too close together, and so because you're inherently bumping
6:26
Speaker 1: into the walls all through stage three, you're pretty much
6:29
Speaker 1: guaranteed to be silted out the entire time. At this depth,
6:32
Speaker 1: nitrogen narcosis is virtually guaranteed, even if you're breathing a
6:36
Speaker 1: special low nitrogen mix of gases, and so divers need
6:39
Speaker 1: to be ready to abort the dive at any moment
6:41
Speaker 1: if they feel symptoms coming on. Once the diver has
6:43
Speaker 1: turned around and is making their return trip, but they're
6:46
Speaker 1: still in the third stage section of the cave. They
6:49
Speaker 1: need to be careful of false stones. These are offshoots
6:52
Speaker 1: on the ceiling only in this third stage that look
6:55
Speaker 1: like the way out. And especially when things are silted
6:58
Speaker 1: out and it's dark, you low and oxidenin, you might
7:00
Speaker 1: be panicking.
7:01
Speaker 2: It'd be very easy to confuse these with the way out.
7:04
Speaker 1: But in fact, these false domes are exactly what their
7:07
Speaker 1: name implies.
7:07
Speaker 2: They are false. They are dead ends. They go nowhere.
7:10
Speaker 1: Stage three is reserved exclusively for extremely experienced cave divers
7:15
Speaker 1: who get special permission. In nineteen seventy three, eight divers
7:19
Speaker 1: got permission to dive the first and second stages of
7:22
Speaker 1: the Chaft cave. They did not get permission to dive
7:25
Speaker 1: the third stage of the cave. On May twenty eighth
7:27
Speaker 1: of that year, the eight divers arrived in that big
7:30
Speaker 1: open field near the cave opening and began prepping their gear.
7:33
Speaker 1: Their plan was to dive down all the way to
7:36
Speaker 1: the edge of the drop off ledge so looking into
7:40
Speaker 1: the third stage, and then once they got there, look
7:42
Speaker 1: around for a minute, and then turn around and head
7:44
Speaker 1: back up to the surface. These eight divers were experienced divers,
7:48
Speaker 1: but their experience was all in open water environments. None
7:52
Speaker 1: of them had dove in a cave, and so they
7:54
Speaker 1: were confident divers, but they were a little bit naive.
7:57
Speaker 1: They believed the dive down to the edge of the
7:59
Speaker 1: third of stage was going to be fairly routine and
8:02
Speaker 1: would just be simple and fun. But before any of
8:04
Speaker 1: them had even gotten into the water, they had already
8:07
Speaker 1: made a critical mistake. Instead of jamming their bottle with
8:10
Speaker 1: the special low nitrogen mixed gas that they would need
8:13
Speaker 1: since they were going into stage two and so that's
8:16
Speaker 1: a requirement, instead of doing that, they just jammed their
8:19
Speaker 1: bottles with regular air, so they were basically guaranteeing that
8:22
Speaker 1: they would.
8:23
Speaker 2: Get nitrogen arcosis.
8:24
Speaker 1: But once they had all their gear prepped, they made
8:27
Speaker 1: their way over to the entrance to the shaft, and
8:29
Speaker 1: one by one they were lowered down into the water
8:31
Speaker 1: and their gear would follow. And then once all of
8:33
Speaker 1: them were all jogged up, they grabbed the safety line
8:36
Speaker 1: and they began their descent. It only took about two
8:38
Speaker 1: minutes to get down to the top of the rock pile,
8:40
Speaker 1: and there they spent about five minutes taking pictures of
8:43
Speaker 1: each other before heading down the Eastern Tunnel. Three of
8:45
Speaker 1: the divers were siblings, Glenn, Stephen, and Christine, who were
8:49
Speaker 1: twenty five, twenty two, and nineteen, respectively, and Glenn remembers
8:52
Speaker 1: after they made their way all the way down the
8:54
Speaker 1: Eastern Tunnel and they reached the drop off ledge, he
8:56
Speaker 1: remembers seeing his sister, his brother, and all the other divers.
8:59
Speaker 1: Everyone one seemed just fine. Everyone's just looking over this ledge.
9:02
Speaker 1: They're taking turns, kind of peering down into this black
9:05
Speaker 1: abyss that is Stage three. And then after five minutes
9:09
Speaker 1: or so, Glenn looked at his gauge and he saw
9:11
Speaker 1: his air was getting fairly low. Not emergency situation, but
9:14
Speaker 1: it was time to leave. And everybody else had the
9:17
Speaker 1: same amount of air as he did, and so everybody
9:19
Speaker 1: else was running low on air. And so Glenn was
9:22
Speaker 1: about to grab his sister, who was several feet right
9:24
Speaker 1: in front of him. She was still looking over the
9:26
Speaker 1: ledge down into stage three.
9:28
Speaker 2: But when he.
9:28
Speaker 1: Reached out to grab her, she and all the other
9:31
Speaker 1: divers just suddenly jumped forward and dove straight down into
9:35
Speaker 1: the abyss.
9:36
Speaker 2: Out of sight.
9:36
Speaker 1: They dove into the Stage three section. This was not
9:40
Speaker 1: something that Glenn was tracking anybody doing. This was not
9:43
Speaker 1: something anyone said they were going to do. This was
9:45
Speaker 1: not part of the dive. This was very dangerous and
9:48
Speaker 1: they weren't allowed to go down there, And so Glenn
9:50
Speaker 1: immediately swam down after them to try to grab his
9:52
Speaker 1: sister and stop her, or grab his brother, or grab
9:55
Speaker 1: any of them. But as soon as he went over
9:57
Speaker 1: that ledge, he saw it was totally pitch black and
9:59
Speaker 1: it was completely silted out from all these divers suddenly
10:02
Speaker 1: launching over the edge. And so Glenn knows he's not
10:05
Speaker 1: going to find them in the silt. It's also very
10:07
Speaker 1: dangerous for him alone to just dive down there. And
10:10
Speaker 1: so he figures, you know what, I'm sure they're fine.
10:12
Speaker 1: They probably plan this out and they're just gonna go
10:14
Speaker 1: down a little ways and they'll come back up again,
10:16
Speaker 1: and so I'll just go to the rock pile and
10:18
Speaker 1: wait for them. And so Glenn turns around and he
10:20
Speaker 1: goes up back over the drop off ledge. He makes
10:22
Speaker 1: his way to the rock pile and he just sits
10:24
Speaker 1: there facing the Eastern Tunnel, waiting for his brother, his sister,
10:28
Speaker 1: and the other divers to come back. Out again, but
10:30
Speaker 1: they don't, and finally his air gauge gets.
10:32
Speaker 2: So low that he literally has to go.
10:34
Speaker 1: To the surface and he's thinking to himself, if my
10:37
Speaker 1: air is this low, what are they doing down there?
10:40
Speaker 1: Twenty four year old Larry Reynolds was one of the
10:42
Speaker 1: divers that went with Glenn's sister and brother and the
10:45
Speaker 1: other two divers into this forbidden third stage section.
10:48
Speaker 2: Of the cave.
10:49
Speaker 1: Although he doesn't say this, it sounded like he and
10:51
Speaker 1: the others just wanted to go a little ways into
10:54
Speaker 1: this off limit section, check it out, and then turn
10:56
Speaker 1: around and go back to the surface. And so Larry
10:58
Speaker 1: would say, as soon as they went over the ledge
11:00
Speaker 1: and they're in this third stage, it went completely pitch
11:03
Speaker 1: black and the tunnel immediately constricted dramatically. And so as
11:07
Speaker 1: they're going down this very tight and pitch black tunnel,
11:10
Speaker 1: they reach a section that's so tight they're down on
11:13
Speaker 1: the stomachs, literally pulling themselves through. And so after a
11:17
Speaker 1: few minutes of the group forcing themselves into this unbelievably
11:20
Speaker 1: dangerous place, it's like they all collectively realized, this is
11:24
Speaker 1: a terrible idea.
11:25
Speaker 2: We need to turn back.
11:26
Speaker 1: And so as they all began turning around, they realized
11:29
Speaker 1: their return trip just back up to the drop off ledge,
11:33
Speaker 1: which was only maybe twenty five feet, was completely silted out.
11:36
Speaker 1: And so Larry is in the back of this return
11:39
Speaker 1: trip line, and right in front of him is Christine,
11:42
Speaker 1: and so as soon as they all make their way
11:44
Speaker 1: into the silt, the only thing Larry can see with
11:46
Speaker 1: his flashlight is Christine's fins, and so he's staying right
11:50
Speaker 1: up on her and keeping his light on that fin
11:52
Speaker 1: to make sure he's going in the right direction. And
11:54
Speaker 1: so after only a few moments, Christine's fins just suddenly disappear,
11:58
Speaker 1: and so Larry's thinking, I don't know where she went,
12:00
Speaker 1: but I don't have enough time. I have almost no air,
12:02
Speaker 1: and so he just keeps on swimming, believing he's going
12:04
Speaker 1: the right way, and sure enough, he clears out of
12:07
Speaker 1: the silt, and he goes up and back over the
12:09
Speaker 1: drop off ledge, and he shines his light back up
12:12
Speaker 1: the eastern tunnel, back up towards the rock pile, expecting
12:15
Speaker 1: to see Christine and the other divers he was just with.
12:18
Speaker 1: But he's looking and there's no one there. There's no silt,
12:21
Speaker 1: it's totally clear and there's not one diver in front
12:24
Speaker 1: of him, and so he looks at his gauge again
12:26
Speaker 1: and he's got a little bit of air enough to
12:28
Speaker 1: maybe go down and make sure nobody is still down there,
12:31
Speaker 1: because he's thinking, I don't think it's possible they could
12:33
Speaker 1: have swam all the way through this tunnel in this
12:35
Speaker 1: space of time. So he turns around, he goes back
12:38
Speaker 1: over the drop off ledge back into the silt, and
12:41
Speaker 1: as he's moving very slowly and cautiously up ahead, he
12:44
Speaker 1: sees flashlights moving around on the ceiling of the tunnel,
12:48
Speaker 1: and so he moves down towards this flashing light, and
12:50
Speaker 1: he realizes the light is coming from inside of a
12:53
Speaker 1: false dome right above him, and so he looks up
12:56
Speaker 1: and he saw there was Christine and another man named
12:59
Speaker 1: Roberts was twenty eight, frantically swimming around shining their lights
13:03
Speaker 1: looking for the way out, not realizing they're in this
13:06
Speaker 1: dead end, and so Larry was about to shine his
13:09
Speaker 1: light to get their attention when Larry's flashlight went out,
13:13
Speaker 1: and so now Larry is in complete darkness. He is
13:16
Speaker 1: completely silted out. He doesn't even know how much air
13:18
Speaker 1: he has left because he can't shine the light on it,
13:21
Speaker 1: and so he's starting to panic. He starts banging on
13:23
Speaker 1: his flashlight and finally the light comes back on, and
13:26
Speaker 1: when it does, he shines it straight up again to
13:28
Speaker 1: try to shine it towards Christine and Roberts, but he
13:31
Speaker 1: had drifted farther down the tunnel, and so by the
13:33
Speaker 1: time he shined his light, he wasn't underneath the fall stone.
13:36
Speaker 1: But when he shined his light in the other direction,
13:39
Speaker 1: he saw he was at the very far end of
13:41
Speaker 1: where the group had gone, and so farther down into
13:44
Speaker 1: Stage three was clear there was no silt, and so
13:47
Speaker 1: he shined his light down into the Stage three tunnel,
13:50
Speaker 1: and way down the tunnel, barely visible, he sees there
13:54
Speaker 1: is one diver with his flashlight out, swimming the wrong direction.
13:57
Speaker 2: Down into oblivion.
13:59
Speaker 1: His name was John, he was twenty years old, and
14:01
Speaker 1: he almost certainly had nitrogen narcosis. Larry knew he could
14:04
Speaker 1: not save him, and so Larry turned around and went
14:07
Speaker 1: back into the silt, back up in the direction of
14:10
Speaker 1: the rock pile, touching the ceiling, looking for that entrance
14:13
Speaker 1: into the false dome to try to help Christine and Roberts.
14:16
Speaker 1: But he's not finding it, and he's looking at his
14:18
Speaker 1: air gauge and it's getting critically low, and he knows
14:21
Speaker 1: if he doesn't go soon, he's going to die. And
14:23
Speaker 1: so at some point, after not finding the entrance to
14:25
Speaker 1: this false dome, he decides he just has to go
14:28
Speaker 1: out and save himself, and so he manages to get
14:30
Speaker 1: out of the silt. He goes up and over the
14:32
Speaker 1: drop off ledge, he gets to the rock pile, he
14:34
Speaker 1: grabs the safety line and he finds himself up to
14:36
Speaker 1: the surface. And when he gets to the surface, he
14:38
Speaker 1: looks around and there's only three other divers up there,
14:42
Speaker 1: one of which is Glenn. And Glenn he looks visibly panicked,
14:45
Speaker 1: and he yells to Larry, Hey, have you seen my
14:47
Speaker 1: brother and my sister? Have you seen the others? Are
14:49
Speaker 1: they coming up after you? And Larry looks at him
14:51
Speaker 1: and just shakes his head. He didn't know what to say.
14:53
Speaker 1: He knew they were gone. But for Glenn, this was
14:55
Speaker 1: his baby brother, his baby sister. He had to go
14:58
Speaker 1: back down. And so, with the little bit of air
15:00
Speaker 1: he had left, he put his mouthpiece in, he turned around,
15:03
Speaker 1: and he doved straight down as fast as he could,
15:06
Speaker 1: staring towards the opening of the Eastern tunnel, praying that
15:09
Speaker 1: his family members, that his friends are going to come
15:11
Speaker 1: out of there. But as he's swimming down and he's
15:13
Speaker 1: running out of air, no one was coming out of
15:16
Speaker 1: that tunnel, and so finally when his air was basically empty,
15:19
Speaker 1: he had to turn around, and on that return trip
15:21
Speaker 1: back to the surface, he realized his siblings and his
15:24
Speaker 1: two friends were gone. It would take eleven months and
15:27
Speaker 1: eleven days to finally locate and recover all four of
15:31
Speaker 1: the bodies inside.
15:32
Speaker 2: Of the cave.
15:32
Speaker 1: John, the twenty year old who Larry saw swimming in
15:35
Speaker 1: the wrong direction, was found fairly far down the Eastern Tunnel,
15:39
Speaker 1: laying on a rocky outcropping. Glenn's twenty two year old
15:42
Speaker 1: brother Stephen was found just fifty feet from the entrance
15:45
Speaker 1: of the shaft, but it's believed he died at a
15:47
Speaker 1: much lower depth and then floated.
15:49
Speaker 2: Up to that position.
15:50
Speaker 1: Glenn's nineteen year old sister, Christine and the twenty eight
15:53
Speaker 1: year old man Roberts that she was with inside of
15:56
Speaker 1: the false dome were found embracing each other just under
15:59
Speaker 1: the fall stone inside of the tunnel. Investigators believe when
16:03
Speaker 1: they were in there, they couldn't find the exit, and
16:05
Speaker 1: then realized that they had so little air that even
16:08
Speaker 1: if they found the exit, they would not get out
16:10
Speaker 1: in time, and so, knowing they were just minutes away
16:13
Speaker 1: from death, they abandoned looking for the exit and instead
16:16
Speaker 1: just embraced each other while they died, and then afterwards
16:19
Speaker 1: they floated down and out of the fall stone. After
16:22
Speaker 1: this tragedy, the shaft was permanently closed to all divers.
16:25
Speaker 2: But years later if they would reopen it. So that's
16:28
Speaker 2: going to do it, guys.
