>>2688444>Instead of giving up and crying for rescue like a bitch, he decided to preserve and push forward. Do you realize he was fucked even before he ended up in that fissure? Picrel. He was too big and tall to turn around, he would have had to go up that 45 degree slide in reverse, feet first, and then somehow forced his feet through that narrow ass ledge while supporting his entire body with his hands planted on a rock slide. That entire slide was uncharted territory for a reason. Cavers before him took one look at it and 180'd the fuck on outta there. The entire cave was mapped except that one part even professionals realized was dangerous. He would have needed a rescue regardless. He made his situation even worse by ending up in that fissure.
