    Wow! That looked like a sketchy climb down into hell! You are a lot braver than i ever was! Geeze! Those crystals were pretty but i could never be a miner. To sketchy and claustrophobic for me! Man, you could get lost so easily. And so dusty and you arent wearing a mask or goggles. That was an adventure! Thanks for sharing!

      It is called birth canal because if they were to go any further they could possibly hit a lava pipe and the gases from the lava pipe could suffocate them.

    PS: You'd probably have been better off to have a gopro type set up on your helmet. Yeah, I know. Bit late now and you were probably thinking "I should've put the camera on my helmet".

    I really like the wulfenite in the matrix that really sparkles in the light. Since watching this channel I have really come to appreciate and see why crystals looks so much better in the matrix. Because it's 100% natural nothing artificially done to them. It's beautiful because it is natural.

    That was the craziest, scariest video you’ve made that I’ve seen, and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen them all! How was the breathing down there with all the dirt/dust? How scared were you really? Truth! It looked terrifying. And, you know, everything was only a 45 degree angle. How long did that whole tour take? Well, fascinating and glad you made it back to the top! 🧡

I’m in my element underground and I take nothing for granted when I’m working I’m always evaluating and re evaluating with my head on a swivel.that’s why I have managed to remain whole and healthy.
