Someone get me a ladder
Panoramic mountain view so breathtaking it makes your dick hard
Drunk AF let me INTO THE CAVES
Sometimes when I haven't been in a cave in a long time I will sit in my closet wedged between the bookshelf and the wall with all the lights off. Not quite good enough but it's close
Ćtzi the icemans' murderer could still be out there. We just don't know.
Destined to die a premature death at the hands of a polar bear on the north coast of Baffin island
I need to lick a stalagmite
Beer is hitting me like a TRUCK making me yearn for the caves.....
Wishing I was out in the wild rn.... Couldn't even feel the cold atp
Beer is hitting me like a TRUCK making me yearn for the caves.....
it is my destiny to die of exposure on the gorgeous slopes of quittinirpaaq national park and I'm being drawn there like a hamster to it's untimely fate
no but seriously I still get chills thinking about turning off my headlamp in the cave and The Hand That I Did Not Actually See, and itās been twelve years since it happened
itās such an unreal experience
like
you turn off your light in a cave and wave your hand in front of your face
and
you can see this shadowy thing moving in the black space where your hand is
it looks like the same shadowy thing you would see in your room at night if you waved your hand in front of your face, itās there and vaguely hand-shaped, and your brain recognizes it as your hand because your brain is aware of where your hand is and what it is doing
But You Are Not Seeing Anything
Inside a cave, there is No Light. No matter how far your pupils spread, there is no light for them to draw in, no light to put an image on your retina.
But your brain just Fucking Assumes that because it knows where your hand is and what it is doing, clearly it can see it.
So it creates a shadowy thing for your eyes to be seeing.
Brain is likeĀ āthereās a hand thereā
Eyes are likeĀ āyup sure thing brain I can totally see itā
Brain is likeĀ āniceā
but there is no hand, you cannot see the hand, you are seeing a literal actual hallucination in the cave because your brain thinks it knows best
Caves are awesome, but also terrifying. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
we once went spelunking, and a our guide said that once he was in a cave with a stream, so he could hear running water, and his brain was like āoh, running water? that means there must be Ducks out thereā. and he saw likeā¦low light shadows of ducks. that his brain just Put There.
As a cave guide: we call that ācave blindnessā! True darkness absolutely wigs your brain out - weāre such visual creatures that after a while our brain throws a hissy after not seeing anything. Sensory deprivation is a very real kind of torture. We have a huge, deep cave system at work and there are a lot of places where youāre hundreds of meters in solid rock in this tiny, dark, still space.
I like to turn my torch off, sit down with my back against the wall,Ā and wait to see how long it takes before I start seeing things or feeling like the ground is moving, or hearing things. Because I know Iām not - Iām in complete darkness, utter silence, sitting in rock that hasnāt moved in hundreds, if not thousands, of years.
Proof that brains are Ridiculous and over-react to a lot of stuff!
During the most recent caving trip I went on, our little group took a break in a large chamber to sit down and turn off our head lamps and wait in silence until we started hallucinating. It only took a few minutes for most of us to start āseeingā lights, shadows, or one another. I like to imagine this was a pastime for paleolithic people as well.
I forgot abt this account but I need to be. In a cave so so bad. Get me into a cave rn
The Utroba Cave, in Bulgaria, is a natural horizontal fissure in a rock that has been further cut and shaped by human hands more than 3000 years ago to resemble a womb. At midday, light seeps into the cave through an opening in the ceiling, projecting an image of a phallus on to the floor

Humans are born wanderers. Don't tell me you don't wanna veer sharp left off this trail and get lost for 30 days. I fucking know you do, deep down. You love it.
