After watching Gus and Woody do this - was wondering when we would see Birdman give it a go. Awesome visuals as always team! Your professionalism and skill in the water is inspiring. Love it!!!!

It’s incredible how well water can preserve things.
that was surreal.... great job per usual guys!
You guys should talk to the owners of the crystal gold mine in Kellogg Idaho. They have lots of stories and speculation about why the mine was closed. The short story is it was found by a man digging into what he thought was a natural spring, eventually he uncovered the entrance to a late 1800s mine. After the water subsided some he went into take a look and he found all sorts of old equipment including air pumps and several hand tools. They speculate that the mine flooded while it was in operation trapping some miners. There is a lower section that’s never been investigated further. I’m sure if y’all talked to them they would let you make a short film

That is so awesome especially the rust smoke

been watching you videos on and off since i was about 9, spent 2 years mowing lawns to save up for my own certification, and a couple more years after that slowly purchasing my own gear and tanks. now i’m 17 and cleaning boat bottoms and replacing zincs and props for a living, and looking into opening my own dive tour business out of rhode island in the next year or two

What an amazing site. I did NOT expect a mining cave to be that massive! Let alone the actual under water parts! Creeply awesome!

Mike is a good friend of ours and it was nice to get a chance to dive with him again. Last time we dove together was at Devil's Hole when I was making Ancient Caves.
I love diving here. Been up to trail 22. Cannot wait to go back.

That place looks so foreign its hard to imagine anyone ever existing in there. I kind of feel bad for the fish if its the only one. Someone should take it to a lake. Awesome video, incredible diving and filming is just amazing. Especially the oxide smoke.

Ever since I first visited the Bonne Terre mine a few years ago it's always been my dream to go back and dive it. In fact that was large part of the reason I got my scuba certification. This is, by far, the best footage I've seen of it! Thanks so much for sharing.

So unexpected! Very interesting 🙂🤩
I dove there!!

Great video
Thanks for the interesting video, I enjoyed it. Reminds me of how great a place is the nearby Montola Limestone Mine, where I have dived for the first time in 2006 and worked, among other thing , as an event organizer,kilometers of corridors, the depth of the main shaft is more than 200 meters
I’ve watched a ton of scuba and shipwreck videos, but I think you just introduced the term “rustsicles” to me. Good video.
