I’m still not sure if trapping me in an actual cave for 72 hours was necessary to record my lines, but it certainly got results. We should probably go check on the editors though, even if “they don’t deserve food” I don’t think sealing them in was appropriate.

Look it the man where the auto-generated subtitles work!

Consider where your soul will spend eternity, heaven or hell.  You don’t want to end up in hell because you rejected the Sacrifice Jesus has made all who repent and turn to him by faith.  We are all guilty of sin.  We lie, steal and look with lust in our hearts.  We are all Guilty before a Holy and Righteous God.  GOD is not just all loving and overlook your sin.  He is loving but sin He will Judge because He is Perfectly good. The Good news is God the Father sent His Son Jesus Christ who was perfectly Holy to pay the penalty for your and my sin out of Love for us.  We can’t keep the Law we break most all commandments.  But Jesus fulfilled ALL by his perfect thoughts, words, deeds and motives for us because we could not. Jesus loved all humans and God the Father perfectly.  Turn, repent of your sin and confess Your thankfulness for what Jesus did for you.  Put your faith in the perfection and the righteousness of Christ.  Jesus was raised from death to give you new life; death has been defeated. Out of love and grace eternal life is promised to those who have faith.                      ,/...............,./,./

Hey, I know you. What a crazy crossover the two of you, almost as crazy as when the CIA refused to turn documents retaining to the assassination of former president John F. Kennedy over to congress in their investigation of said assassination. It is believed that these documents hold evidence of CIA involvement in the assassination, and maybe even evidence of a second shooter, which the CIA adamantly denies! Anyways, this is pretty cool too, good to see you Wendigoon!

4chan raids are history and you should melonfarming 'spect um.

I kinda prefer the humorous documentaries on internet trolling more. This is professional and well made but I just liked the humor more.

This isn't good history, much of this is objectively wrong.

@Psychic Afro Dancer Punctuation and proper grammar are very important. Remember, the penis mightier than the sword

I mean he  kind of too his script from another article without crediting it.

@iron sure, but that still doesn’t make them a historian. They are reporting information  that was already compiled by historians. It’s not to diminish what they did, it just doesn’t make them a historian.

@From The Backseat I've looked at every wikipedia article relating to the cave, the victim and the people who tried to rescue him. None go into as much detail as this guy did. So he had to scower lots and lots of sources to make a video this detailed. Don't comment what you don't know about.

@Psychic Afro Dancer Let's eat out Grandma?

character development, a true anime protagonist

Animating the contents of Wikipedia pages doesn’t make you a historian.

Most of the source material was already recorded by historians.

4chan raids still count as actual history

He's bringing real history to the internet generation. It's a long game. Bring them in with 4chan, then keep them on for the caving story.

From an internet historian, to an historian on the internet

Not quite a historian maybe, but a great storyteller no doubt

4chan raids fall under history because they are studied events of the past.

@Steve Johnson  Idk why I imagined the REEEEEEEEEEEE noise when I read this.

This is also a story of a mass media viral event, so in a way it ties in

Are you implying 4chan raids aren't history?

His quality is exactly the same. His “he will not divide us” and “pool is closed” videos are equally as re watchable as his last few. Every time IH posts a new video, it’s an event.

Both are "actual history". He has been an "actual historian".

From transcribing events on the internet to transcribing events, on the internet.


Two things people also gotta realize: The Turnaround Room isn't really a room. It's a widening of the tunnel that collapses to the 9 inch gap. It's just big enough to get your bearings, decide which way you want to go in, or turn back. It's not a 10 foot tall room that you can stretch your legs in preparation to go into the squeeze.

The other thing: The squeeze didn't allow you to change directions. The video makes it look like you can go in head-first, turn around at the 10 foot drop, then go down feet first. You have to decide if you want to go in head first or feet first. It's then 20 feet to the drop. Floyd went in feet first to clear it out then got stuck. His brother went in head first to clean out the rubble, then had to climb up the 10 foot drop BACKWARDS!

Now you know a bit more why people turned back

@Fabi Most people wouldn't, and it's not even being a chicken, it's a basic survival instinct. But you know how there are all sorts of weird people. These people, like Floyd, just lack any sense of survival.

There's actual drawings of what the inside cave looked like and how the pathway to Collins was. I don't know how Collins thought he would have made that thing usable for tourism.

i don't give a shit that i can't change direction at the drop<br>i wouldn't even go into the aqueeze in the first place.

i don't give a shit that i can't change direction at the drop
i wouldn't even go into the aqueeze in the first place.

the 2 guys i respect the most are the random journalist that just went in no hesitation and the childhood friend moving 500kg of gravel in a single session

It makes much more sense now why so many people chickened out. It also makes you appreciate more the courage Floyd's brother, the Journalist and the Fireman had.


I feel so sorry for Floyd, the man suffered almost as much in death as he did in life.

@ingainloggningsnamn Nobody has personal experience of death. Death is the permanent cessation of personal experience.

@Haha Trumpets Imagine when that lamp went out... Imagine before that too, after the cave collapsed and he was all alone again, with that lamp as only company and warmth, only for it to go out and leave him all alone again in pitch darkness... He had surely gained much hope after seeing more and more people helping to get him out only for it to all go away like that.

@Doug Eddy Sounds as if you have personal experience of death. Tell us more please.

@Doug Eddy oh yeah you’re right forgot about that last part, they surely disrespected his body. Guess it was his family that suffered that part

@GenoCyber No, they are referring to the many terrible things done to Floyd’s body after his death. Nobody’s contending that the way in which Floyd died isn’t beyond horrific.

@Doug Eddy I think he meant he suffered a slow painful death. This is definitely one of the worst ways one could go.

@Haha Trumpets it is sad, but think on this - the debate that surrounded this attempt sparked later innovation and more systematic approaches to subterranean rescue.  I have no doubt that his death led to many more people being saved, and also it is a testimony to spirit, determination and compassion that humans are capable of.  Though also a reminder of the darker side of human motivations...

@Doug Eddy Your soul still lives, silly, and it longs for dignity in rest. Lemme guess, you're gonna wax philosophical about atheism like some redditor.

fuck man, the way it was going i thought he was gonna get saved, this makes me depressed

Great comment. I like the way you worded it

I don’t think he suffered at all considering, yknow, he’s dead. But, the greed of the capitalists is unmatched and this once again proves that they will quite literally steal a coin off a dead man’s eye

The good news is that you don’t actually suffer when you’re dead. Floyd felt nothing, thought nothing, experienced nothing after dying. Thankfully. Because his corpse went through a <i>hell</i> of a time.

Psychopaths have an evolutionary advantage.


The way that Floyd’s body was treated after his death is possibly the most appalling, disgusting and disrespectful things I have ever seen happen to an individual in my life.


The sentence "the cave refuses to let him go" always gives me chills. It's as if the cave is alive, and has a will on its own. On every turn, the cave is just refusing to let him go. Floyd tried to profit off of it, and now it has screwed him right back. <br>Probably the closest thing to a real Eldritch abomination as it can be.

Similar to how here in the Great Lakes we talk about the lakes like there mystical creatures
“She’ll smile at yo Ulithi her eyes a deep then bury you broken and rusted”
“The lake it said never gives up her dead when the sky’s of November turn bloody”
And so on

Yeah, I really love environmental storytelling. I'm trying to gradually work it into my own videos, so far I've mostly tried using the weather and odd lighting. It's kind of unusual in modern Western literature/film and that makes it feel unfamiliar and disconcerting at times. Here, the room Floyd was trying to get to looks vaguely like a mouth full of teeth. The fact that IH (and editors) showed it <i>multiple times</i> demonstrates they were aware of how viscerally hostile it looks. I think a lazier channel would have ignored it.

Gerald, Homer, and Miller really were the realest here. Absolute Kings trying to get their friend and brother out. And Miller didn't even know the guy but he put his life on the line.

miller and gerald are the realest there is and the realest there will ever be


41:00 holy shit thats one of the scariest moments I've seen in a video. For both sides. On one hand, Floyd didn't want to be alone in the dark. He just wanted to have someone with him. On the other, that guy only came to help and Floyd tried to get him to stay to his probably doom just so he wouldn't be lonely.

What a horrifying situation.

@Some One well yes. Gerald already said it, that so many people near the cave, lighting fires when most of the cave was held up by ICE, it was gonna melt it and cause a collapse.

No one listened. Till it was too late.

They probably would have been able to save him if they went away at least 100 meters.

But nope. Let's all round up and light fires  NEXT TO THE CAVE.

Bloody morons.

Of course, it's very possible that it wasn't just them. It was the lightbulbs in the cave as well. While it did light up the cave unfortunately it also heated it up.

The fact that it protected Floyd from freezing and dying from exposure says it all.

Hell, Floyd himself apparently dies moments after the lightbulb goes out.

From exposure.

@fatalynn7 Makes me think that if everyone just stayed away and a few people who knew what to do went into the cave, he would have lived. Miller alone almost freed Floyd from that rock just by himself according to this video. If there weren’t hundreds of people ruining the integrity of the cave, melting snow around the opening, and being a distraction; one strong, capable, focused team may have been able to save him before the cave-in. Everybody wanted to be a part of the excitement, and didn’t stop for a second to realize their own inability or the very real consequences of their actions.

What broke me entirely after this moment (and I was already horrified at this part) was the stuff right after where they could have raised his head so it wasn’t sitting in the cold water, or the feeding tube or the radio or the phone line. All things that may have saved his life in the long term.

This could be me

But I feel like in this moment, floyd knew his final hours are coming up.
That odds are he has accepted the fact that this cave in will just be the nail in the coffin, he not only didn't want to be left alone, but I can assume he also wanted to send any parting words to his family.

But I dunno, it's just a thought


This is straight up a Greek tragedy. Floyd's will and fate was to make that cave a popular tourist attraction, and, in the end, it was.

greek tragedy?? this was more like the quintessential american comedy

So this is how tales are made, i feel like i'm in 2000bc

@Zoe Smith why would you read comments before watching lmao

@eat hot chip and lie Theres a series where he is played by a black actor, just search it up. Also I never said he was a pasty white dude, don’t put words in my mouth. I simply said he’s a blonde on the Iliad, and it’s pretty clear for someone who is not having a racial agenda that if he ever existed he would be closer to a olive skinned/tanned Swede rather than a subsaharan African or a Semite. And btw it’s pretty much established that the Mediterranean elite was in its majority distinct racially from the peasant masses. Mediterranean elite were at least initially heavily descended from the Indo-European patriarchal horse rider populations that subjugated the swarthy matriarchal native Europeans.

@elcucaracho Where is Achilles being shown as black? He's Greek. Greek people back then were dark-skinned. Usually due to... ya know, ancient peoples being outside a lot. It's a tan. Therefore you can be extremely tan but still have blond hair.

It's equally inaccurate to say he was a pasty white guy.

@Mr Al Yeah I’m kinda morbidly curious with the results of a generation of people being imprinted very early on with the image of Achilles being Black when he’s explicitly a blonde in the Iliad.

@elcucaracho <br>Indeed, many segments of society had limited opportunities for advancement which is morally wrong. My issue is that people are increasingly representing history incorrectly for the purpose of social engineering. Important to accurately portray historical events, both good and bad.

@Mr Al No shit my dude I was totally believing a Black dude had social opportunities for becoming a Superintend in the 20s.

An excruciatingly tragic monkey's paw. I don't think someone could come up with a fiction as agonising as this reality

plot twist: it happened just as Floyd planned and his death was self planned

Also Henry St. George Tucker Carmichael (Superintendent of Kentucky Rock Asphalt Company) was an Anglo Saxon which was not depicted accurately by Mr "Internet Historian". He took a few liberties in his re-telling of this harrowing story.

@Zoe Smith <br>Best not to read comments before watching videos that could be impacted by "spoilers".

Nutty Putty cave was pretty bad too.  It wasnt nearly as long as this however.

I never knew about the gravel in Sand Cave.  I had thought he was just trapped by the rock wedged agasint his feet.


I’m part of the Estes family, originally from the Cave City area, and this is an amazing write-up of this story! My grandfather met Floyd Collins when he was young, and we still hold land with caves on it in the area.

I wish I had found this video sooner, but thank you for making this! ❤

the fact that you are from one of the familys mentioned in this video is a crazy coincidence but the fact that its more of a side character that is only mentioned shortly makes it believable


Was this way darker than Internet Historian's usual stories? Absolutely. Did it give me an entirely new spectrum of hopelessness and utter horror? Like you wouldn't believe. Was this one of the most fascinating gritty real life stories I've ever heard? Without a goddamn doubt.

I mean it's inside a cave of course it's gonna be dark.

That dream sequence was certainly pretty Lovecraftian

Василий Гашечкин

@Василий Гашечкин 🗿someone can’t accept criticism

Is asking yourself a question and then answering the same question cringe inducing? Absolutely yes.

While not involving death, the story of balloon boy (told in one of the earlier IH videos) is also incredibly grim and infuriating.


This is better than 99% of Hollywood movies made in the last 5 years. This is a cinematic masterpiece.


The cruel irony here is that he wanted to turn the cave into a tourist attraction, but instead HE became the tourist attraction

One of many instances of, Be careful what you wish for…..🤷🏻♂💯😏😒

Poor guy literally died chasing the American dream.

I'll make this cave a tourist attraction or die trying!

@Toronto Tonto Well he wanted to turn the cave into a tourist attraction precisely to gain money, I don't think he had all it would take to hire a complete mining team and pay for all the equipment to make a proper entrance.

@A. A He is a victim but nobody should be crawling down 50 feet of cave. Practically suicide at that point

You either die a hero or live long enough to become a tourist attraction

@Edzo The Don In 1925 rural Kentucky, yeah. Remember, farming is all but useless in the area and every local family is well-versed in caving and moving rock, so mining was likely a saturated job market. Prohibition was also in full swing, which meant moonshining would be met with extra prejudice from both the law and competitors, so distillation was largely out of the question.

At that point, why wouldn't digging holes be any worse than choking on coal dust or getting shot at over whiskey?

@Jenn strugglinh finically but had the time to dig a whole 12 hours a day for 12 months?

@Nirvanic I'm talking about the section on the other side of the squeeze

@Bog Baggins many did come out and in. Watch the video.

@Nirvanic Some parts of the inside, but not the part he was trying to dig out. Regardless, it is weird to think that he died trying to dig it, and nobody ever got to it.

@Nirvanic He turned the outside of the cave into a tourist attraction

@Mad Adder the monkey's paw is a classic horror story by W.W. Jacobs. The closest to it in the twilight zone was "the man in the bottle" which is about a genie that grants wishes with increasingly complex downsides.
First it fixes a broken cabinet
Next they wish for money but the IRS take the majority in tax leaving them as broke as before
Then they wish to be a beloved leader, who can't be voted out of office, of a major country- they become Hitler and Eva Braun in the bunker at the end of WWII.
The genie explains earlier in the episode that they offer 4 wishes now because 3 leaves people disappointed but too many let's people run wild so they use the last wish to go back to how things were before, but the genie leaves the cabinet intact... Which they then accidentally break.

Wonder whatever happened to the alien like world beneath sand cave.

@Toronto Tonto he couldn't afford it lol nice victim blaming

@Toronto Tonto he was struggling financially to begin with, he wasn't able to

There's probably a deeper meaning behind all of this. Something about greed, ambition, or simply a dangerous stubborness. But honestly it's just so tragic

@The Sonic Bros Floyd: "I wish the cave would be popular and gather a great crowd" the finger curled the stone moved and held his leg.

@The Incredible Blobfisch You son of a bitch, you beat me to it.

Maybe the real tourist attraction was the friends we made along the way.

he got greedy, he shouldve hired a miner and make the entrance secure

yeah bit of a greek tragedy in that aspect, innit

And effectively he turned the cave to a tourist attraction. Draw.

<b>The cave turned him into a tourist attraction</b>

*The cave turned him into a tourist attraction*

@The Sonic Bros  That is a really awesome comparison


I think the most tragic part of it all is that, you hear the details of what methods they tried and you think "I could've done that better" which is the exact problem that caused so many to show up and hinder the rescue in the first place

Yeah, like if it weren't for all the people, the cave probably wouldn't have collapsed/


Never heard of this tragedy but damn the chills I got towards the end. Just the embalming and disrespect towards his body. And then how long it took to give him a proper burial. Incredibly sad but props to everyone who tried to rescue him


God I don't think I've been affected by a story this much in a while. The constant rise and fall of hope. The desperation. The mere premise, brrrrrr! It shakes me to my core! I legitimately wanna cry for Floyd and I'm not all the way through yet but this makes me feel SO ANXIOUS!

I knew the outcome already but I still found myself hoping for him to make it.


I was shocked as it was slowly explained to me how Floyd was trying to get another man to die with him. Obviously so much of this story is shocking, but that part... I felt like I finally understood the level of torture he was suffering.


The part where he lied about needing water and intended to trap that other guy down there just to avoid being alone was so fucking dark, and completely understandable

@Predalienguy1 OR he felt guilty for leaving him there. Either way, people certainly do that.

@Predalienguy1 That’s definitely a big possibility.

@Predalienguy1 That’s definitely a big possibility.

Well then I’m glad he perished, goes to show he was a selfish person to the core.

@strangebrew420 Which oddly enough, gave people the impression that things like this were actually healthy. We know now that alcohol from a health standpoint, isn't exactly good for you. However, people then just knew that it extended life so to speak. The actual reason was, that it's the brewing process of things even such as beer, that kills the microorganisms in water that make people sick.

weirdly enough they both might have survived if he had trapped the other guy. They may have shared body heat enough to fend off exposure until the military dug through, though thirst and starvation would have been a concern.

@Mix-n -Match <br>casey should be renamed caren in this story. a coward and a liar who tried to make it all about himself

@Mix-n -Match
casey should be renamed caren in this story. a coward and a liar who tried to make it all about himself

I think it's worth noting tho that this part was taken from notes of that guy, a scared to death worker that genuinely did not want to be there any second longer. It should be taken with grain of salt.

@strangebrew420 <br>how do you know he lied? that whole incident most likely never happend. you are as bad as the people gossiping outside the cave lmao

@strangebrew420

@Forna Lotta <br>why are you taking caseys word for it? lmao

@Forna Lotta
why are you taking caseys word for it? lmao

That never even happened. some loser coward called casey made that story up for old timey eclout

@Publius Ventidius Bassus I mean he didn’t exactly have the ability to go to the bathroom I’m sure he didn’t feel like shitting himself for the 7th time.

@Amelia Bee You have no heart to say something like that, and have obviously never experienced anything even comparable. That man is a saint. His mistake was obsessing over profit, and that's it. After the first collapse all is forgiven.

@khhnator Bodily functions are a thing stories like this always tend to skip over, despite the fact that it's another horrible part of being trapped. Only Candace Newmaker's story describes it, and that's why it is one of the most disturbing tales I've ever read. Lying in your own excretions makes the whole experience even more stressful, uncomfortable and harder to endure.

@TheEtherny If i was the trapped rescuer, i'd be beyond resentful if I actually got stuck with him

@Linas Kvedaras The narration said Floyd knew the cave was collapsing. If that's actually true, then yes, his desperate attempt to secure company was a trap

That was the darkest part of this video tbh.

That was the darkest part of this video tbh.

I took it more as, he knew they would just dig out the new rubble, but didn't want to be alone while waiting anymore.

I wouldn't say it's understandable. I'd say it's monstrous. BUT, he was also addled by exposure, exhaustion, and dehydration. So I guess I understand?

He was scared, and didn't want to be alone. He didn't want the other man hurt, but he really didn't want to be isolated again.

@khhnator Agreed. I would have started going insane after just 5 minutes. Never mind the 100+ hours he'd endured by that time.

the guy was seeing his own death for days at that point and all that in the dark, unable to move, while pissing and shitting himself.<br>he was not in his right mind, neither should be judged as such

English “fey,” how a man behaves when his mind is desperately trying to evade thinking about his impending, inevitable doom. Pippin uses it to describe Denethor in The Two Towers. And yeah,  it is every bit as creepy as it sounds.
Was he trying to "trick" someone else into being buried with him? Probably not. He was desperate, at least a little delirious, and about to be utterly alone. He wanted company and didn't care too much how at that point. I'm sure he wasn't thinking straight.

@strangebrew420 ohhh yeah thank makes sense, ty for reminding me

@strangebrew420 ohhh yeah thank makes sense, ty for reminding me

@Nauda back in those times access to clean water wasn’t as abundant, so they mostly drank alcohol and coffee

@Publius Ventidius Bassus I wonder if them giving him so much coffee dehydrated him faster as well. I know we can't go long without water, but laying completely still, we may need less.

@CactapusCotton Under the conditions he was in, it makes sense he wouldn't have wanted coffee despite his thirst. It has laxative effects and can mess with your digestion. Couple that with inconsistent shifts between days-long fasts and occasional food, while being prone over solid rock for days, and coffee would've just made him feel 100 more miserable.

@CactapusCotton  so you're saying he was crazy... and gay?

@CactapusCotton  so you're saying he was crazy... and gay?

@strangebrew420 I would like to mention that none of us have any idea what the situation was actually like. According to IH, floyd said he was thirsty, but then would not drink the coffee offered. IH gives what is likely Kacey's take on the situation, but who knows what is actually going through the mind of a man whos been trapped in the cold for 114 hours at this point. I cant imagine he has the mental capacity to realize what it is he's doing when asking Kacey to stay.

Maybe would have lived too with the guy taking care of him lol - nah they would have probably ran out of air too fast with the extra pair of lungs

He was a drowning man, and he was dragging someone else down with him.

He was a drowning man, and he was dragging someone else down with him.

@Thicc Thicc Thicc he lied about needing water so he would stay down there when the rocks fall. how is that not trying to trap him?

Reminded me of matt damon's character from the Interstellar.

Honestly if that guy had stayed, floyd may have lived.

It’s even more crazy when that guy was probably one of the last people to see Floyd alive

Maybe he knew someone else would surely keep him alive for longer

@Linas Kvedaras Nah, it's the right word, dude was being tricked into staying.

@Linas Kvedaras Nah, it's the right word, dude was being tricked into staying.

I felt bad for the worker. Having that on your conscience probably fucked with him for life in some way.

@Thicc Thicc Thicc he knew the cave was about to collapse and wanted him to stay. He didn't want to be alone. The cave was what was going to trap him.

@Thicc Thicc Thicc Thats not what i was saying. I was saying that the guy checking the integrity of the cave probably lied about floyd attempting to trick him to trap him.

He didn't trap him lmao. He physically couldn't do that.

He didn't trap him lmao. He physically couldn't do that.

I think its more likely the guy was on tour and over exaggerated what actually happened.

is trapping a fellow man down a collapsing cavern gay?

is trapping a fellow man down a collapsing cavern gay?

Trap might be a too strong of a word. Desperate for company, sure, just a little more time not being left alone....


Floyd: I'm going to make a fortune with this cave!

The Cave: Sorry , mate. The best I can do is pay you in exposure.


It's very sad story and it actually left me with hard feelings for a couple days after watching. Can't even imagine how horrible this death was.<br>However, I'm also thinking about "what would you expect?". You know, it's not like it was misfortune or uncontrollable events that lead to this - going inside a 9 inch hole covered with razor sharp crystals to jump into another even smaller hole covered with razor sharp crystal is basically a suicide. Like, he shouldn't have returned even the first time he decided to go there. And yet he continued to piss off his luck each day. And it also wasn't one of those situations where the person just didn't know how dangerous something is, he knew everything.

@Agente Polaris also, this dude was an experienced caver and knew how to go in and out of a cave. His only mistake was breaking his lamp. Doesnt make him dumb, just an unfortunate accident. It’s no different from experienced climbers who die on Mount Everest.

@Brennan K people in the past didn't had all the knowledge we have today but they weren't stupid as some imply

@MysticMetaKnight First, the notes are made to look like simple copyright disclaimers, not warnings about the lack of journalistic integrity. Second, there is a difference between satire and demonizing a dead man's father unecisarilly and literally lying about the place that Floyd was buried, which was the only reason he went in the cave.

@MysticMetaKnight “they” did not do the best they could have done. They hosted a freaking carnival above the cave creating an inevitable collapse.

@Daniel Smith The time period has little to do with how it could have gone better or why it went the way it did. Even in 2009, with all the technology we've developed since the 1920s, the Nutty Putty Cave Incident still managed to happen. Sometimes people just can't be saved despite all the efforts; it has nothing to do with the intelligence of the people during the time it happened. They did the best with what they knew and what they had at the time.

@Sheeshism The notes at the beginning specify that this video is satire and that some information has been censored for the purposes of privacy

Read the actual story. This video misrepresents and downright lies about some of the info.

@Daniel Smith
Of course people were generally less educated back then, but not having a good (or even halfway-decent) education doesn't mean someone is stupid. It just means they may not be able to use their existing intelligence to its fullest potential.

You don't need a good education to realize what Floyd was doing was incredibly dangerous. But his experience probably made him overconfident, coupled with the fact that he had done this exact thing for a while without incidents.

Like a moth being drawn to the light. Saw an opportunity to make money and give a better future for his family then took it. He was young and dumb, I'd believe it. The first few times he was probably extremely wary and cautious, but gradually became used to it and let his guard down. Things like this don't happen quickly, it occurs over time. There's a common fable about boiling a frog in hot water. If you suddenly place the frog inside, the frog will obviously jump out of the boiling water. But if you first put the frog in the room temperature water, and slowly start to increase the heat, it won't jump out and will slowly cook to death.

To you or me this obviously seems dangerous and as if he was trying to die, but he was going down here for weeks and was perfectly fine. He clearly knew his away around the cave if he could navigate it purely by touch. In retrospect, its easy to say how something was obvious and how its clearly not safe, or how it was stupid for the people squatting outside and making campfire which loosened the cave ceiling; just like the people after Floyd was caved in by the rubble saying "why didn't we put in a radio?" or "why didn't we put down a tarp so he wouldn't freeze in the water?".

But yes. It's very unfortunate and I just can't imagine how it must've been like for him, for his brother, or any of his other loved ones. The part that was most heartbreaking for me was how he describes that at first he was afraid and didn't know if he would get out, but after having so many people help him he had courage and believed that he would get out of the cave with both of his legs. It seems like such a horribly perfect case of dramatic irony, it doesn't even feel real. Like a play or a movie.

For his brother or his friends, at first it must've seen incredible seeing Floyd becoming well-known and having the support and help from everyone around the entire country. But him slowly becoming dehumanized, a spectacle, a mere form of entertainment being capitalized on as he gained popularity and notoriety must've been incredibly disorienting. I mean, after an experience like that, how could you possibly not hate people?

And as the saying go, history repeats itself. People and society often like to emphasize the differences in us; sex, race, nationality, economic class, generations. But it is astounding how much more we are alike than we are different. Even today you see the same phenomena of how as someone becomes well-known they are subsequently dehumanized and become a spectacle in celebrity culture. Paparazzi having no qualms about invading the privacy of celebrities, strangers on the internet pointing out every little flaw or imperfection. In fact, that reminds me of a case of a Japanese professional wrestler named Hana Kimura. She was on a "reality" TV show, and she gets angry for one of the members on the show for accidentally damaging her wrestling costume, which results in her slapping him.

This resulted in absolute OUTRAGE online by fans. Tons of insults and death threats were directed to her. It was an absolute witch hunt because on the internet, anyone can say anything they wanted anonymously.This resulted in her killing herself. What did the legal system do about it? 2 men were charged with cyberbullying and had to pay a 66 dollar fine. 66 dollars.

Because of this incident, Japan has passed a bill making online insults punishable by jail time up to a year and a fine of up to approximately 2,224 dollars.

@Dan and Tab It's all speculation on my part but i'm guessing he wanted to keep the secret around what he was doing. The people at Cave city obviously knew about Sand Cave but nothing about what it was like past the squeeze and further to the deep end.

@Relinquish well I’m not digging out a cave ass first

@Daniel Smith we aren't really much smarter than humans back then.

@Daniel Smith I didn’t realize that, that’s a good point. But also I think a 1st grader would know that it’s not smart to go into a cave like that, or any person who dropped out before high school would too.

@Brennan K less than 20% of all eligible people attended highschool in the 1920’s. Things have changed

@Daniel Smith I disagree. I think “common folk” are the same in 1920s as they are now. Whether how stupid or smart you think they are. I have friends who would do this today. I sure as hell wouldn’t. I would’ve been one of the turnarounders. I respectfully disagree on that though, to just say common people back then didn’t have much going on upstairs!

@Daniel Smith Very much this. I still don't understand why he didn't start working in The Turnaround Room first, then forwards, instead of squeezing through to the other side like that and then digging. But apparently he was quite a spelunking fanatic.

it's the 1920's, the common folk didn't have much going on upstairs if you know what I mean. Digging out a cave ass first without reinforcing or widening any tunnels or access points, you could only expect it to end this way


For those who don't know, this incident also proved as inspiration for the film "Ace In the Hole" (1951), which recounts the story (until after Floy's death) in a really captivating and exciting way. Definitely check it out, one of my favorite films of all time.


We need more people like Homer, Miller, and Gerald. Truly amazing selfless individuals! They made this very dim and tragic story somewhat bright.


This story both demonstrates humanity's best, and humanity's absolute worst. <b>That part where two random losers just lied that he was fine, is so disgusting.</b>

This story both demonstrates humanity's best, and humanity's absolute worst. *That part where two random losers just lied that he was fine, is so disgusting.*

It was far more than just 2 losers, but it was mostly teenagers that had done this. Though that wasn't as bad as Clyde Hester who told everyone Floyd had died around this same time.

@Steve Harvey Nothing is more sad than a person who is incapable of distinguishing between feeling special and important, or actually deserving to feel special and important

@nikki terry They wanted to be right so badly they made fake evidence to “be right” about it being a hoax, it’s pathetic.

You are 100% correct.  It happens in murder cases all the time.

People call in and confess to crimes they have nothing to do with.

I guess it makes them feel special or important.

Cheers from Canada

@nikki terry Probably jealous at all the tourists the story got.

@nikki terry It comes from a sense of self-righteousness that feeds into their narcissistic beliefs where they know the truth and everyone else is wrong, evil, or misled. They believed in the fringe conspiracies, hoax that was this man trapped in a cave was a hoax. So they tried to spread a message to go against the popular narrative in all the papers: that this man really was stuck down there. How could he be stuck for so long and not have been rescued yet? It makes no sense! It's all a conspiracy for x reason.

Parallels well with the goings on of today no?

Humans can be utterly foolish sometimes. Albeit humans are somewhat adorable

@Peter Clarke It's not ultimately always about that, in fact a lot of these lunatics ascribe to the same "dark secret" line of thinking you're describing and feel that's enough justification to take things into their own hands even if it meant being dishonest. It's not unlikely they actually believed it's a hoax and that they're doing the world a favor by being pieces of shit

@Rachard People are easily manipulated. We like to believe in things that make sense to our prejudices, and don't like being challenged.

And yes, the internet and social media have been very successfully weaponised in a way that was completely predicted, but almost impossible to stop.

@Peter Clarke Humanities always been the same back then right?<br>its that now were exposed and much easier to stories on internet and what not..

@Peter Clarke Humanities always been the same back then right?
its that now were exposed and much easier to stories on internet and what not..

@Peter Clarke Shows how big it grew from one news paper's money involved to the state government money involved and how it could make them look bad. How another paper just said ok to anything and everything they hear without checking. To everybody gotta make sure it's real to save face.

Imagine if they were fooled by a farce they would have to keep it up or admit they were tricked. Easy to see them never admitting that. Even worse the common "I give to charity" becomes "the check is in the mail" and it never gets there. That always seems to happen then or now. One guy getting his monkey paw wish to make the cave famous, it only cost him his life and to become part of the attraction, part of the cave for a generation.

@nikki terry they went down there, so they'd be seen as big pussies if they came back out and said, "uhh... yeah, no, I got scared and left him down there without giving him any food or drink."

just people covering their own asses, as they tend to.

They gained the same thing that all people like them gain: the smug feeling that they have done something to manipulate (or derail) a big event.

It's ultimately always about power and control, about having a dark little secret that makes them feel special. Same thing that's happening today in the states.

@Tom M his mother had died tho… so who did the letter even go to? It’s just weird because they didn’t benefit from that whatsoever

Time truly is a flat circle with how humanity is.

They told his mother he was coming.

Even in a video like this I wasn't expecting something that sick.

@nikki terry They likely thought it was a hoax and wanted to hurt the hoax.  if they were right, they'd probably be mentioned as daring do-gooders now.  it's the same vigilante shit with the same problems.

Rogal Dorn, Primarch of the Imperial Fists

That confused me because… what did they gain from doing that? 🥴

@Tyler Maendel Bro if it happened today half the crowd would be there just screaming for the national hard to kill Floyd

Gets even worse considering that I can totally see all that happening nowadays

@UCvR5Yae_JDifbSoWJIZ6nSw And it gets amplified because the algorithm likes engagement.<br>And nothing engages more than controversy

And nothing engages more than controversy


Ive watched every IH video at least 4 times, but this may be the most difficult to rewatch for me. Floyd's story is just so sad, he just wanted to have something of his own and suffered on life and after death


I can’t put in to words how great this video is. Not only emotional but it was also high quality.


It's testament to internet historians storytelling abilities that, even though I knew what was going to happen to floyd the whole time, I was still genuinely invested in the rescue and saddened by his death and how the public treated his body


My stomach dropped during that initial zoom out from Floyd's position to the cave entrance. It was a lot farther, a lot *deeper*, than I had hoped it would be. There is something terrifying about that on a primordial level.


I've heard this story before, and the thing that gets me is just how Homer didn't hesitate to help his brother. He crawled into a cave tunnel, spent hours trying to bury him out with his hands, fed him, chastised everyone who wouldn't help, pulled the rope outta 5 mens' hands, and did his best to get Floyd outta that cave whether alive or dead- like that is some real family. Mad Respect for Homer.

He was a real bro. Not to mension what he said at the start where he chased the people beating Loyd with a fucking shotgun

Βασίλης Βλάχος

I'm 40 now, but in my early 20's working in a refinery a father/son duo along with a few more coworkers died trying to save the dad after he passed out from vapors in a confined space. We're taught to not go in alone, or at all unless you're part of the rescue team; but imagine standing by wasting precious time waiting on rescue personnel while watching your father passed laid out on the floor. I believe the son, and 1 more guy survived the incident; but the other guys were down in the tank breathing in H2S for too long to be saved. This along with a few more freak accidents have been on my mind everyday since they happened 😪

Wished it worked but nature is so cruel.

Probably what homer was used to.
“Oh what’s that? My brothers trapped in a cave again? I bet there’s a growing crowd of people.”
Even Floyd’s friend seemed like this was a normal occurrence.

@Bernardo Heusi I don't know, I just imagine he had to shit his pants.

@Bernardo Heusi Odds are he was probably pretty backed up having as little food and water as he likely did.

@imaloony8 Miller is what every journalist should strive to be. He didn't just cover the story, he really tried to help. The fact that he refused what was essentially 1 million dollars for the story speaks VOLUMES about him.

@Why are Jews so ugly?🤔 In that situation? I wouldn't even blame my own brother for abandoning me. Heck, if he even made it down there, I'd just ask him to shoot me and end it.

@Why are Jews so ugly?🤔 if theyre slow enough to go 60 feet deep in a cave, during a time when the only sufficient lighting is candles and fragile lanterns? not a fuckin Chance. check the mortality rates back then

When you love someone you would do what you could to save them.

And can we get a shoutout to Miller? He went well above and beyond the call of duty. He could have gotten his interview and booked. But he came closer to rescuing Floyd than anyone else, not to mention the support he gathered from the public that made the final (unfortunately too late) rescue attempt even possible. Plus, he even turned down an offer to sell out. Dude is a journalism legend.

Homer is the best brother anyone can ask for

What, and you <b>wouldn't</b> help your own brother?

What, and you *wouldn't* help your own brother?

meanwhile his dad used him for donations then sold his corpse to be an exhibit lol.

I was going to say the exact same 👏👏👏<br>Homer was a legend 💞

I was going to say the exact same 👏👏👏
Homer was a legend 💞

@Bernardo Heusi As I said, he would have released on himself. It isn't like he could do anything about it with the position he was in. ALL of these stories conveniently leave those kinds of things out because they are considered embarrassing and shameful to discuss. The real question is how did he masturbate? Think about it. My guess is that he vigorously dry-humped the rubble whilst imagining taking a gander beneath his hot neighbor's frock. That's what I would do anyway.

@Mao Zedong Lol you make a fair point.

It´s still disturbing to think how he shit lol

@Bernardo Heusi What do you expect? Floyd obviously released on himself continuously, they would have left that out of the story. His pants were most certainly soaked with urine and fecal matter after being trapped down there for that long. What I am amazed about is how that guy managed to breathe. He was being crushed by rubble which would have made breathing itself difficult, but he was enclosed deep in an air deprived shaft for that long whilst the limited air he would have had access to contained large amounts of dust that would have cut through his lungs making breathing even more painful than before.

OK and when wanted to shit they did what?

Nah, William is more of a G, He was a complete stranger and yet worked the hardest.


thanks to Jacob Geller's video, i already knew what happened to Floyd Collins, but the storytelling still made me so hopeful and then, as that hope got crushed every time i Remembered, so very deeply sad. i haven't even gotten to the end and i'm already crying a little

Right?? I almost wondered if I was misremembering the name from Jacob Gellers video, tempting me to hope that maybe this one was a different story, and would end happily


IH's best work yet. I was experiencing the full spectrum of human emotion throughout this video. What a fantastic piece.


Anyone that made it through the squeeze is an absolute legend in my book, I personally know I wouldn't be able to.

the way the squeeze is described here makes it seem even easier everyone after floyd had to go in head first into a whole that was too small to move while breathing and then drop down a 20ft drop no room to turn just to help floyd and to add on top of that they had to climb up a 20ft drop BACKWARDS using a rope and alot of strengh


You can judge the power of a documentary if you ever want to pause to google what this is about and what happened in the end. I've done no such thing and sat through the entire video. Amazing
