Crawl inside a hole and get stuck ... UPSIDE DOWN!!! .. for 28 hours as you slowly and painfully drifted to your death and no one could help you despite them being right there with you.
It's all fun and games to talk about tragedies of unknown strangers like this on a random internet forum but every time I come across this story, it sends shivers down my spine to think of what happened. It was an innocent decision that led to a dangerous life threatening event.
If any thing good came out of it, it's made me even more careful about life and taking unnecessary chances. I'm older now and I think about things more. I ride motorcycle and every time I get the urge to want to speed up, run through a tight corner or dip into a dangerous situation, I think twice, slow down and take my time or even just stop and let everything and the danger pass. I do the same when driving in a car down the highway .... everyone can pass me, I don't care ... I can be late, I don't care ... I'll even turn around and go home if the weather is bad or I just don't feel good about it .. as long as everyone is safe and sound, there's no need to endanger one's life, if we don't have to.

All fun aside ... that was a horrible way to die.

Rookie mistake. Everyone knows you need a fan and an air vent in there

Should have gone with the rising star cave, with the homo naledi fossil location.
