A good read, basically like a script of a movie, about spelunking underwater gone wrong.

It's a true story told by survivors.

>It was around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday when rescuers got him loose. They were able to give him an IV, food and water. He also received a needed morale boost after he was able to talk to his wife over a police radio.

>For a few hours there were sighs of tentative relief. They finally cracked open the boxes of pizza and cases of water, and broke out in smiles suggesting the worst was over.

>That only lasted for a few hours.

>Once Jones was free of the 18-by-10-inch crevice, rescuers said an "equipment failure" caused the rope system that was hoisting the man out of the cave to drop him back into the same, narrow gap.

>Thursday morning, rescuers were able to determine that the equipment failure occurred because one of the anchors that had been drilled into the rock had come undone.

That makes no sense, how can they get him in but not out?
WHY WOULD HE GO IN THE HOLE

same reason you can drop a coin in a coke bottle and not get it out.

He could have been saved by picking a better fucking hobby

>>63281366
For future reference, could have just asked in the /acegen/
Onto the question:
I doubt many asexuals would simply "suck it up" and marry/live with someone of the opposite sex or anything (or rather someone they aren't attracted to). There would have to be something there. An aromantic ace may choose to be with a good friend, say, or a romantic ace with someone they have romantic ties to. I see no reason that a homosexual person to be against marrying/living with a good friend of the opposite sex. That isn't entirely unheard of. There's also the potential situation of a homosexual person being hetero/biromantic. But no, none of that would strengthen the "suck it up" argument in the slightest. It should always be about who the individual cares about, no matter their reason.

He should go base-jumping

>>63283485
that's basically what I did after my first big breakdown, not getting fit but I lost like 30-40kg in a year before working up the courage to actually go through with it.

what about therapy? (ignore my previous post, lol) do you have someone to talk about your feelings more?

>>63283485

I was referring to mainly QM formulations that offer exact solution to a PDE." i.e. "not an expansion in a small parameter.

>>63283495
He should have.
In that hobby if he dies, he dies in a couple seconds
In spelunking if he dies, he will slowly starve to death

they gave up when he died dingdong
>>
>>63283615
The guy had been hanging upside down for over a day then, I don't think he would have noticed. Our body is not built for that. At least I take solace in the fact that he didn't die alone. I hope he was still concious when the first rescuers arrived.

>>63283535
>>63283597
>>63283615
He didn't die for starvation or thirst, he died from being upside down for too long.

Your body isn't meant to work that way.
>>
>>63283648
No, he has been superceded by a spooky skeltal
>>
>>63283597
How can they "drill the hole open"? How could they get equipment to drill through all that solid rock into that small space? Impossible. It's incredible that they were even able to do what they did.

Nope, his brain and lungs were slowly filling up with water. Pulmonary and cerebral oedema, caused by being suspended upside down for so long.

This is near the part where he got stuck.

This picture annoys me. If it's supposed to look like a skull it failed and what's with the extra pair of feet. Why even bother if you're not even gonna try.
>>
>>63285728
How could his lungs be filled up with water? Aren't the "openings" at top?

Those belong to the woman in the top of the skull.

Are you retarded or something?

>>63281626
>On November 24, 2009, John Jones died after becoming trapped in the cave for 28 hours.[4] Rescuers concluded that it would be too dangerous to attempt to retrieve his body; the landowner and Jones' family came to an agreement that the cave should be permanently closed with the body sealed inside.
>>
>>63285809
Usually your heart works in sync with gravity. When you're upside down, it's harder to pump blood up to your legs and harder to pump blood away from your brain and lungs. As a result, blood pools in the brain and lungs, and fluid seeps out of capillaries into surrounding tissues.

You can't just drain the fluid out of the trachea because it's filling up all the tiny alveoli all at once.
>>
>>63281626

Horrible way to go but as a caver this was fucking dumb.

Never push stuff like that without friends nearby, assuming he was on his own. No way should he have done that head first... He had two bends to reverse out and change his mind.

Several stupid decisions compounded.
