NEVER Enter a Cave Without Checking This!
A recent viral video from Costa Rica shocked millions a man lowered a burning stick into a cave, and the flame instantly died out near the ground. This wasnt magic it was a deadly warning.
Many caves, especially deep or poorly ventilated ones, can have dangerously low oxygen levels or pockets filled with heavier gases. At the cave floor, oxygen can drop so low that even a candle cannot survive and neither can a human.
In this video, we explain:
What happened in the viral Costa Rica cave incident
Why flames go out near oxygen-poor surfaces
How gases settle inside caves
Why exploring unknown caves is extremely risky
How to detect low-oxygen environments safely
This is a reminder: never enter any cave without proper testing and professional guidance. One small mistake can be life-threatening.
