I still don't get how he got himself into that position. But what* I don't get even more is why they didn't try the leg breaking technique because they were afraid of it killing him. They were just like, "we don't want to risk killing you so we're just going to leave you here to die instead". Makes no fucking sense.
For fuck's sake, break my legs and get me the hell out of that hole! I rather take a 90% chance of dying over 100%.
I might be misremembering but was the leg breaking thing perhaps not their last hope? Maybe they tried something else before the leg breaking thing? The winch system, that failed and made him slide even further down, right?
Little bit longer than 27 hours. He died after 27 hours, and the authorities never figured out a practical way to retrieve his remains, so he's been there for 16 years and counting.
Oooh I have been mistaking that with the case on 127 movie this whole time. I thought both are the same case. Well it turns out with 100 hours difference.
He died in that spot BTW, so the government just left him there and buried the cave entrance in concrete so no one else can go in there ever again. He remains there to this day.

Every time I see that position I feel like I have a little bit of a harder time breathing.

Yeah and IIRC that's when they considered breaking his legs but then just decided not to.

Good God, this thing comes back to haunt me every so often and I don't understand how it happens. ðŸ«

No, this one is a reference to a diagram of how a cave diver got stuck for 27 hours.

I reckon it is a lot easier to pull out just the skeleton, so let's wait with the retrieval for some more years.

Cave's closed, so he rests there.

the worst most treacherous caves ever discovered will always be called something like "silly billy cave"
