what a rollercoaster of emotions: “please just have a video- oh they have! great. oh hold on that’s a terrible video that shows absolutely nothing and just gives me a headache with its 5 frames per second, why did they even bother?”

Look for a documentary called “Cave Of Forgotten Dreams” by Werner Herzog, about this cave.
