Engelbrecht East Extension (Narrated by Josh Richards) - Cave Diving

This is a compilation of footage from a project I've been helping Josh Richards to document this year. Josh is a true exploration cave diver (among many other things), who through his work has discovered & surveyed a significant extension to the existing Englebrecht East cave in the heart of Mount Gambier, Australia.
This exciting discovery is by no means easy to get to, with some challenging dry caving required before one gets to the 'rabbit hole' and beyond that the entry pool, named 'the pool of tears'. if you're game to go through the rabbit hole however, Josh, aided by a number of dive buddies has mapped an amazing extension with many aptly named features.
This video, narrated by Josh provides a glimpse of what lays beyond the rabbit hole. We hope you enjoy!
About Englebrecht Cave:
Located in the heart of the Mount Gambier township, the site is named after Carl Engelbrecht, a German immigrant who settled in Mount Gambier during the 19th century. A private tour operator manages the site on behalf of the City of Mount Gambier, and runs regular tours of the sinkhole and dry caves for members of the public.
For divers, Engelbrecht Cave consists has two main submerged cave passages - one running in an easterly direction and one running in a westerly direction.
The East passage is Cave rated and extends about 70 metres from the doline's opening, with a maximum depth of 8m. To access the water, there is a short, steep stairway inside the eastern tourist cave which leads down to the lake, where divers can enter the first sump. From here divers can navigate a low, flat, silty passage to an inner air chamber and lake, or explore several side passages.
From the inner air chamber, divers can exit the water and climb over the central rock pile to access two additional short sumps, each approximately 10-20m in length.
As for the extension... this is a work in progress, but watch this video to find our more!
