NGL being over a mile underground sounds horrifying and amazing at the same time

It is horrifying. They made a movie about it. It's called The Descent. Never will I ever go exploring a cave.

I very much recommend the book if you liked the film!

I didn't know there was a book. That's awesome to hear. I need to read more. I may start with this. Thank you!

The Descent is great

Exploring lava tubes though is super fun and I'd highly recommend it
