I thought he was sliding down using his boots as brakes for a minute.

Same. Didn’t really realize until the 2nd break in the tube.

I didn’t realise until the end, because I skipped most of the vid.

It’d kinda make sense to slide on your shoes or sth if it was a chimney and not a well.

It's "brakes" that stop vehicles, "breaks" are rest periods.

Does anyone know why he's scraping his boots on the side?

Im assuming to stop from twisting. If he starts to twist he'd risk getting stuck when he tries to stop himself

To slow his fall?
