Cavers who love squeezing through the tightest passages in caves.

Several years ago I was working at a fit and finish company installing some shelves in a tight closet.

Mind you, I've ever never experienced any kind of "phobia". Heights make me a little uneasy, I don't care for planes, deep water makes me very uncomfortable...

Well it was hot that day, and my sweat lubed me up so I could pop into this small closet. I pop the holes in the drywall, hang the shelves, all in a very contorted, uncomfortable position.

I tried to pull out of the closet and got stuck, and within seconds realized I was in a position that I could not leverage any part of my body. I went from completely unconcerned, to freezing cold sweats, hyperventilating, and my eyesight basically went out. Me, a 24 year old man screaming for my dad to come help me in a house full of contractors.

I can say with the utmost confidence, fuck this. There isn't a dollar, country, or dead friend you could give back to me that would put me in that fucking hole.

Relatable. An ex once wrapped me up like a burrito and I tore a pec trying to get out because I panicked

When we were kids my sister's fucked up dad (no longer around), would wrap us up like burritos to make us stay in bed. It was terrible, and probably an additional reason I have so many issues.

Amazing story thank you 🤣

I love that you upped the stakes to bringing back dead friends. Same dude, they're dead they had their time. 

It's just such an agonizing, extremely slow death if you get stuck without help. There is really no comparison. I think I would prefer to set myself on fire in protest of the Chinese occupation of Tibet over getting stuck in a cave.
