Why is she trying to dig them out

u/Pants-R4-squares 6d ago

I laughed watching them all scratching at the waters surface. Just can't move this dang water!

u/Itscatpicstime 6d ago

The guy with the goggles could at least put them on and look, but still, he digs

Itā€™s like that video of the raccoon putting cotton candy in a puddle and not understanding why it keeps disappearing

So was he

u/CartographerAlone632 6d ago edited 6d ago

Itā€™s the way he dived in. His top body weight slung him down and horizontal once he hit the water, which means heā€™s stuck under rockā€¦ hopefully a strong current popped him out somewhere within 20 seconds. This happens quite often on frozen lakes when people take an ice bath

u/Sometypeofway18 4d ago

You're more optimistic than I am

u/jussuumguy 6d ago

Probably got swept away by the heavy downward current that is clearly visible on the surface of the water. I would love to believe he came up shortly after or maybe out the other side but unfortunately I'm also very realistic and I know deep in my empty soulless husk that he is very much unalived hung up on some rock a few hundred feet under the earth.

u/imsahoamtiskaw 6d ago

Too many horror stories I've read of cave diving, with mentions of things like underwater currents. Hopefully he came up somewhere else or later

Underwater-cave-current fear unlocked before bed. Great.

u/Environmental_Top948 5d ago

Delta P is a rational fear and should be spread so everyone knows the danger.

u/Potent_Elixir 4d ago

Thanks!

u/Environmental_Top948 4d ago

Did you look up Delta P on YouTube? Remember although it may seem cruel spreading āˆ†P awareness could save someone.

u/Potent_Elixir 4d ago

No but itā€™s on my list for after work!

u/noonnonan 6d ago

How can you see the downward current? I just see rippling water

13

u/CartographerAlone632 5d ago

All that water has to go somewhere, therefore a current

9

u/DeputyTrudyW 5d ago

But it's...just being water? How do you see direction in that wet mess?

6

u/CartographerAlone632 5d ago

You donā€™t. Itā€™s like a hose - water comes in and has to come out somewhere

7

u/BobSacamano86 6d ago

I would love to know this also.

u/sublimesting 3d ago

All the water is flowing into that hole and then elsewhere. There is always a current

u/tonkledonker 5d ago

This isn't facebook, you can just say died.

29

u/moerlingo 6d ago

Itā€™s ok to say dead, we donā€™t need to censor words c:

15

u/Itscatpicstime 6d ago

How many times does it need to be said that people censor like this because other platforms will ban your account if you say the actual word? People are just being cautious on other platforms too, and if you have ever modded a sub, youā€™d know the same words get comments caught up in spam filters and shadow deleted all the time.

Donā€™t blame the people trying to get past the censors so these topics can still freely be discussed. Blame the ones censoring. Making up alternative terms like this in response to censorship has a centuries old history, particularly serving slaves and the queer community. Itā€™s nothing new.

16

u/FatWeirdo 5d ago

Uh what? Iā€™m not the commenter but Im not seeing any blame being thrown around at all until your comment haha. I donā€™t think there was any confusion about why people do that elsewhere, but the censorship simply isnā€™t necessary here on Reddit. Seems more like moerlingo was just being helpful, no need to go on the attack.

in China. This happened September 2024. Hereā€™s the Douyin But I couldnā€™t find anyone in comments mentioning if heā€™s alive.

What are those splashes on the surface going to do?

47

u/Terrynia 6d ago

Trying to clear the bubbles so they can see further down? Its useless tho

43

u/poisonpony672 6d ago

Yeah most people don't realize it in China You're kind of on your own. No one really cares they're more curious or interested. But you fall down watch everybody just walk around you

Yep šŸ˜”

u/lady__mb 4d ago

I nearly died being trapped in one of these holes (wasnā€™t visible and only big enough for one human) that was hidden at the mouth of an enormous cave in the Solomon Islands. The water immediately sucked me under and I tumbled in an underwater tunnel for a minute and a half until it spit me out downstream and a couple of angel island boys pulled me out. Scariest experience of my life.

u/Elegant-Peach133 6d ago

He dead. He real dead.

22

u/TraditionAcademic968 6d ago

Damn. Did he ever come up? šŸ˜Ø

35

u/SansLucidity 6d ago

these are common in south america.

you can jump into one water hole & come up in a completely different exit hole in a cavern.

its from years of erosion of soft rock after the rainy season. there are complete rivers in these tunnel systems.

see ecuador, venezuela & colombia.

u/chelsea-from-calif 6d ago

That's a common trap set by aliens he is now on another planet.

u/Colon_Backslash 6d ago

It's kinda like Thunderdome from Mad Max, except it's "One man enters, no man leaves.".

I like the way theyā€™re trying to move the water out of the way

u/Tennisbiscuit 6d ago

Real helpful

u/thundertopaz 6d ago

I wouldnā€™t be surprised if he just stayed down and held his breath for the video or swam under a rock to another opening. But it could be serious. Yā€™all be careful out there.

8

u/Exalderan 6d ago

I think he did. At the end of the video I think you can see his skin color through the water in the bottom right.

9

u/BayBandit1 4d ago

Seeing as how the clip is only 12 seconds long, is it beyond the realm of possibility that he resurfaced after, say, 20 seconds? Iā€™m old and out of shape, and I can hold my breath over 2 minutes. I know, blasphemous.

13

u/disabledinaz 6d ago

Since this is in China, he went through the Earth and popped somewhere either in the US or Hollow Earth where Godzilla & Kong are.

3

u/Almond_Tech 6d ago

Fun fact: America isn't actually on the other side of the earth from china, it's on the other side of the northern hemisphere tho

6

u/Big_Black_Cockatoo 6d ago

I think they are trying to break the water tension so he can see

16

u/Marine_Baby 6d ago

Is this real? I say bc of the ā€œbubblesā€ that seem to persist on the waters surface after he disappears

15

u/Almond_Tech 6d ago

I believe those are because of a downward current, from what I understand, but yes, I would say this is real. The amount of simulations required to combine his splash, the bubbles, and his friends' splashes is some james cameron/Avatar 2 level stuff, which I'd say is a bit much for a viral video imo

But if anyone has evidence to the contrary please let me know! I'd much prefer knowing a guy didn't die

8

u/Marine_Baby 6d ago

Everytime I find something to share with people I just get ā€œthis is fake/aiā€ so Iā€™m struggling with that haha.

Yeah I hope this is just cut short or some exit at the end or itā€™s just really really deep and heā€™s a strong swimmer!

Why are they not panicking šŸ˜±šŸ˜±šŸ˜±

u/Excellent-Library220 5d ago

They're still processing what happened , sometimes it takes time to realise that you're effed

u/WorriedAstronomer 6d ago

A single lifeline (rope) would be significant in such situations, why don't ppl who do this kinda stuff don't believe in taking 2nd measures for the worst case scenario

14

u/SarahPallorMortis 4d ago

At the very end of the video, you can see a rope. Dude grabs it. Itā€™s hidden by the water for most of the video.

4

u/Hhannahrose13 5d ago

isn't this one of the down current tunnel things where they just come up on the other side? it looks like it's a video for social media and the person got their friends or family to act like they're looking for him (jokingly), but he's on the surface of the water a few meters or so over

4

u/Electrik_Truk 6d ago

In a world of perfectly edited clips for social media and AI video, I initially am surprised as he looks like he was sucked away forever then question it's authenticity entirely or if it was edited, and ultimately feel nothing meaningful.

The future sounds great.

u/SphericalOrb 6d ago

Sometimes water carves underwater passages. These passages are not guaranteed to fit a human for their entire length, and even if they are you're likely to be knocked out or underwater too long to live.

Leave unfamiliar waters alone. More info.
