    Default Cave Diving film - Into the Darkness

    Hi, During the winters of 2004 and 2005 I travelled with Rick Stanton and John Volanthen, two outstanding Cave Divers from the UK, to Valstagna in Northern Italy as they attempted to pass the first sump of the Cogol di Veci a vast flooded cave system. The film follows their attempts to push the limits of underwater cave exploration.

    The film is available here in full. I hope you like it.

    Amazing work!

    How did they measure the air quality in the dry areas they camped in? I woud be worried about the %o2 without an air line to the surface. Not to mention other gases that are found underground.

    Very cool, well narrated, interesting documentary. i like cave diving so i am always interested in watching any footage about cave diving but the way you put this together makes it in my opinion interesting for everyone to watch not just cave divers which is a very difficult thing to do well.

    congratulations!
