Playing in the Mud Never Gets Old for These Two Cave Explorers | Short Film Showcase

Doesn't go anywhere. See those two holes there? I pushed the hoenn for a meter and a half, and it's mad all the way.

Okay, I was gonna say, with only no shot for three years, and that's why I still hang out. We're trying to connect the junior cave system, which is just up in this area, off the edge and the bottom end of Lucky Strike over here.

It's a phenomenal feeling that you can't really get anywhere else. Went on the surface of the earth, everything's been met. Satellites have gone over. You can go on Google Earth and discover it before you go there. But underground, you don't know what's going to be there.

They take hundreds of thousands of years to grow and develop, and you can destroy these things in an instant. Treat caves with respect. These straws here, basically you just touch them, and they fall off the ceiling. Totally hollow inside, and there's water running down the inside of them, not on the outside.

So funnily enough, that's why local schools... there's been a lot of people working on the overall project for many decades. We found a passage, Jr., and we started digging in there. The next step is we need to pinpoint the exact location of where they are, and therefore we know how far we have to do, because it could be ten meters, but it also could be fifty meters.

Lucky Strike and Junior are two totally different caves. Lucky has heaps of formations; sporty streamway touches roads—lots of variety. Junior, it's like kneeling in a bath of porridge or the rainstorm coming down on your head.

The reality is, once you accept the fact that you're gonna get dirty and muddy, it actually becomes a lot of fun, because it just opens the scope out to play in the mud, like you always wanted to.

[Music] That's good to see! The Sunday had a good thing. Yeah, enjoy that one! No, let's go again!

Yeah, thirteen fifteen to go. It might be a would, of course, that you have to crawl down on your belly. Could be a chamber that's one hundred meters across and one hundred meters high. So yeah, it's the unknown which makes it exciting.

That's beautiful. That's the unknown.
