    I just watched this using the above mentioned youtube links. It worked fine but it seems that the file listed as number 2 is the first part, while 1 is the second and 3 is indeed the last part of the show.
    It seems that 98 or so percent of the show is there.

    wow, that was terrible, reminds me why I turned off tv service years ago.
    They barely addressed the fact he was not certified to dive the cave, that his "deco" tanks had no regs and that his log book was clearly made up.
    The picture in his gear with the reg hose crossed around his neck shows he has no clue. His drilling of the rock on top rope is sad.
    I can't believe they implied that edd didn't really go to the back of the cave and that he missed the shovel.
    How about the obvious questions like
    How much did he owe after selling his house and paying toward the 500k debt?
    Did he have life insurance? How much? Who will get paid?
    Was he into "partying"?
    Seems like the police would have been well served to pay attention to edd and immediately begin searching outside the cave in the surrounding area.

    I watched it when it originally ran on Investigation Discovery last week and was less than impressed. It was so crappy that I wouldn't waste my time to watch it again and wish I hadn't wasted my time to watch it originally.

    Now there was only me and this timeless, eternal cave. I felt part of things, a tolerant guest.

    When I heard about this I checked facebook for Ben McDaniel and found his page. There were several pictures where his friends had commented on the "parties" he threw. The scene, his appearance and pictures sure painted a picture that would lead me to examine the other factors in his life and their connection to his disappearance.
    I notice that his profile no longer contains those pictures, and that other profiles were created/modified. Could be nothing more than changes by mourning friends/family who want to remember him a specific way...however i stopped ignoring my spidey senses LONG long ago.

    Yes, I have been less then impressed, but I still have not seen the last 5 minutes of it because of our horrible internet here. So I am still going to try to see it all.

    I noticed when they discussed his "deco" tanks, they failed to mention the fact that they had no regulators on them and one had a broken valve. Hmm.

    It's not the years in your life that matter, but the life in your years.

    I'm wondering if those are some of those little 'facts' that are not generally released in a case.
