Transcript

00:00I don't normally do intros like this but I'm currently descending hundreds of

00:04feet into a cave that runs over five kilometers deep into the earth and

00:09whether we like it or not as soon as my friends and I touch the ground we are

00:14officially stranded here for the next seven days. That might have been the scariest thing I've ever done.

00:21First things first we gotta get really far away from where we rappelled down. Why?

00:25If it storms, this entire area could flash flood, fill up like an ocean, and potentially drown us all.

00:31Which is why we're going deep into the cave to set up base camp.

00:34Bro, this is just wicked.

00:35Dude, this is like a different world.

00:37This cave entrance may be beautiful, but looks can be deceiving.

00:40We didn't know it yet, but the next seven days will by far be the hardest of our entire lives.

00:49Alright, it's gonna get dark in a couple hours. If we don't have a camp, we're screwed, okay?

00:52Do you have any idea where you're going?

00:54I'm just looking for flat ground to set up camp.

00:56Upon entering the mouth of the cave, we stumbled upon an area with high enough elevation to protect us from any flash flooding.

01:02Meaning that it was perfect for camp.

01:04Perfect is a crazy word.

01:06Good enough is what I would use.

01:07Good enough for camp.

01:08We spent the rest of day one grabbing our supplies that we were dropped with.

01:11Each one of these bags weighs like 80 pounds.

01:13And as you can see by the footage, we spent around four hours.

01:17This is very hard to traverse.

01:19Getting all of it back up to our base camp.

01:21Alright, we've got some lights on in here. Our supplies are finally at our home base.

01:26And if you point the camera over there, you'll see it's pitch black.

01:29It took all day.

01:30And so, we set up the bare minimum for camping grounds.

01:33We drilled holes to hang up some ropes.

01:35Grab these, pull yourself up.

01:37Looks like the ropes will be able to support hammocks.

01:39And with the help of our survival guide, Joel, we hung our hammocks.

01:42This thin rope is what holds up my hammock.

01:44Yep.

01:45Ate some dinner and prepared for a very cold night one.

01:48Not gonna lie, this hammock is way more comfortable than I thought it would be.

01:52Hey.

01:53Oh god.

01:54Why is my head so big, bro?

01:57This part of the cave is two and a half kilometers deep.

01:59And we're basically camping at the entrance.

02:01Tomorrow, we have a lot of exploring.

02:07How'd you guys sleep?

02:09Horribly.

02:09I didn't.

02:10It's a very perplexing environment.

02:12The cave's constantly dripping water on us from above.

02:14So we put a tarp over us.

02:16But even still, the water's dripping into our hammocks.

02:18I have an idea.

02:19Let's make our shelter actually good.

02:21I say we connect these tarps so we stay dry while we're sleeping.

02:24That's literally genius.

02:25I'm not just a YouTuber, okay?

02:27My hammock gets out right here.

02:30Are we serious right now?

02:31This is where I just got out of bed.

02:32And we didn't realize it at the time, but this hole is almost 40 feet deep.

02:36So while Sean and I got started on the super tarp,

02:38Mac and Carl went to see how dangerous this hole was for themselves.

02:42Do you see my hammock up there?

02:43That is where I slept.

02:44Now look at this.

02:45Because everything looks the same,

02:46and it's probably pretty hard to follow us in this cave,

02:49on this map, you can see our home base and how far they're moving away from it.

02:52All right, Mac, it's been real rough.

02:54Oh, bro, this is crazy.

02:55While the boys are randomly exploring,

02:57me and Sean actually have to work on the camp.

03:01Why is there a sleeping bag over here?

03:03Uh, because it smelled like pee.

03:06Ew.

03:06Lesson number one, don't rent your sleeping bags.

03:08Why did we rent sleeping bags?

03:10Why did we not just buy sleeping bags?

03:12We're zip-tying the tarps together to create one mega tarp.

03:15Don't mind me, just trusting this rope with my life.

03:19And meanwhile, Mac and Carl were still in a hole.

03:22Oh, my God.

03:25And eventually, they finally made it to the bottom.

03:27Hey!

03:28We're supposed to be working on camp.

03:31We just wanted to show how dangerous camp was.

03:33Just don't fall. It's a skill issue.

03:35Oh, okay.

03:36And even though they should have been on their way back,

03:38Carl and Mac insisted on seeing how deep they could go.

03:41Bro, this just looks so crazy.

03:43You think you can make it through the river?

03:48Little do these two know,

03:49this river actually runs throughout the entire cave,

03:52which means we'll be spending some time in it.

03:55Oh, there they are.

03:56Hi.

03:57Tell me you guys cooked.

03:58Oh, we cooked.

03:59That's right.

04:00A new home, am I right?

04:02Let's go.

04:02We now have a roof.

04:03Look at this.

04:04I'm not gonna lie, it's actually kind of gross.

04:05And we moved the fire pit to this little cove we found.

04:08What do you think?

04:09It's warmer.

04:10Cozy.

04:11These rocks trap the heat here

04:12and block the pee from the rocks above.

04:14It's not pee.

04:15What do I call it?

04:16I don't know, maybe rain or something?

04:18It's not rain, it's rock.

04:19Maybe.

04:20Wait, point it up.

04:21Do you see clouds?

04:22No, you see rocks.

04:23It's not rain.

04:24Rock pee.

04:25Rock pee.

04:26Rock pee, fine.

04:27All right, it's rock pee.

04:28And after a much drier night of sleep,

04:30we decided to have Joel, our survival expert,

04:33help us get all the way to the end of the cave.

04:35Cave!

04:36Cave!

04:37Cave!

04:38Cave!

04:39Cave!

04:40Cave!

04:41Yeah!

04:42Let's see how deep in the cave we can make it.

04:44Now, keep in mind, we are still just at the beginning

04:46of this massive cave.

04:48And our goal is to make it all the way through it

04:50without dying, of course.

04:52Oh my gosh, this is kind of steep.

04:53Bro, you ain't seen nothing yet.

04:55We're going deep in the cave.

04:56All right, boys, suck in your guts.

04:58Before things get tight.

04:59I don't actually think I'm gonna fit.

05:01The interesting part about cave exploration

05:03is one second, you're barely fitting

05:05through cracks in the rocks.

05:06Oh my god, this is so tight.

05:07And then the next, you're in a massive chamber,

05:09so big that in order to see it all,

05:11we had to do this.

05:12Woo!

05:13Oh my god!

05:14I can actually see now.

05:16This is awesome.

05:17This thing is bright.

05:18Woo!

05:19Bro, look at how cool this is.

05:21Yeah!

05:23It's so bright, I can't even look at it.

05:24I feel like I'm getting blinded.

05:25Oh no!

05:26Oh no!

05:27In hindsight, we probably didn't use that

05:29the most effectively.

05:30Lead the way.

05:31And so we continued on.

05:33Joel's brain is a really good handle at the top there.

05:35Right there.

05:36Right there, you can sort of swing a foot around

05:37onto this one.

05:38Like this?

05:39Yeah, yep, perfect.

05:40Joel, the best caving guide ever.

05:42No one's died yet.

05:44Alright guys, this is where things get interesting.

05:47What?

05:48What is this?

05:49So from this point on, wetsuits,

05:51we're going for a swim.

05:53Yesterday, Mac and Carl were joking about doing this,

05:56but the rest of this cave adventure

05:57takes place in a freezing river.

05:59Oh my god, this is insane!

06:01Meaning wetsuits are the only way

06:03to not get hypothermia.

06:04Why are we doing this?

06:05This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

06:07Because you die after you do it!

06:09So in order to get to the end of the cave,

06:11we have to hop in this river

06:12and fight the rapids through this tiny hole in the rock

06:15and carefully squeeze our way through it.

06:17Take your time,

06:18it will take your feet behind you a little bit.

06:20Alright, I'm getting in the river.

06:22You want to follow the wall around.

06:24It's so cold!

06:26You got it, Jimmy!

06:28I don't know if I fit!

06:29Jimmy, I need you to pull yourself up out of the water.

06:32Oh my god!

06:33What's crazy about doing this

06:34Oh, it's so cold!

06:35is when you're completely submerged

06:37in freezing cold water,

06:38gripping onto the rocks becomes incredibly hard.

06:41Oh my gosh, that was crazy!

06:43Matt, Carl, let's go!

06:45I'm scared!

06:46You got this!

06:47Woohoo!

06:48Keep going!

06:49Look how crazy this is, dude!

06:50And even though this obstacle was difficult,

06:52it's nothing compared to what's up ahead.

06:54We did it!

06:55Yes! Yes! Yes!

06:57Hey, Floyd!

06:58We're now 10% done!

07:00Which means we've only scratched the surface of this expedition

07:03and we still have over two kilometers remaining

07:05to reach the end.

07:06As you can see, it rains in this cave 24-7,

07:09so I'm making a chill spot for us to hang out in

07:11and not get wet.

07:13I wonder what it would look like

07:14if I wasn't here to build all this.

07:15Pretty sure they'd just be sleeping in a pile on a wet rock.

07:19How long do we keep moving now that the bodies are wet?

07:22You got it!

07:23Temperatures are going to drop quickly.

07:24Why is this so difficult?

07:29The worst part is,

07:30every inch we go this way

07:32is an inch we gotta go that way to get back to camp.

07:35Our next obstacle may be out of the water,

07:37but that doesn't make it any easier to get through.

07:39Oh, is that a spider web?

07:41Why not? It's not a spider.

07:42That means it's probably on us.

07:43Oh, it's on you! It's on you!

07:44I hate my friends.

07:45This cave is like a Mr. Beast video.

07:48The further you go, the harder it gets.

07:50Just straight up, if we didn't have Joel,

07:52I'd be dead.

07:53And after three hours,

07:55Joel had some bad news for us.

07:56The water's too high and we've taken too long.

07:59We're going to have to turn around for today

08:00and head back to camp.

08:01I disagree!

08:02You can't disagree with a safety expert!

08:04I disagree!

08:05Well, we can't really disagree.

08:07It turns out we wasted way too much time filming

08:10and playing with flares

08:11to the point where we now had to restart

08:13and attempt this mission another day.

08:17Sean, we're back!

08:19What'd you do while we were gone?

08:20Hopefully nobody gets wet now.

08:22I didn't even know we packed lights.

08:23Yeah, they're awesome, right?

08:24Sadly, we only made it 20% through the cave today.

08:27But mark my words,

08:28we will go the distance in a future day.

08:31I doubt it.

08:32That's not gonna happen.

08:33We might rest on day four,

08:34and then on day five,

08:35try to go all the way to the end of the cave

08:38and see what's there.

08:39Day three was a lot of fun.

08:40I'll see you guys tomorrow.

08:44And after a third miserable night in the cave,

08:47the next morning, we only had one thing in mind.

08:49A hot shower would literally save my life right now.

08:53Oh, showering would be awesome.

08:55I haven't showered in three, four days!

08:57As you can imagine,

08:58showering inside a cave isn't easy.

09:00We had to hike all the way back

09:01to where we rappelled in to safely reach the riverbed.

09:04It's so cold!

09:05Oh, my God!

09:06I feel my brain.

09:07I've never felt my brain like this.

09:09My forehead is frostbite!

09:10Let's use the drone to dry our heads off.

09:12Come here, drone!

09:13Stop, stop!

09:14It's actually working.

09:15Yeah, it is working.

09:16Who needs a hairdryer when you have a drone?

09:18And after we dried off,

09:19we sat down with Joel to plan our journey.

09:21What is this, Joel?

09:22This is the map of the cave.

09:23Last time, we had to stop

09:24because of the fast-moving water

09:26but the rains have been slowing

09:27so we might just get a window

09:29to reach the end by tomorrow.

09:30Dude, this is going to be wild!

09:32First, we'll need to pass

09:33some of those same rapids from yesterday,

09:35dive off massive cliffs,

09:37and avoid jagged rocks.

09:38And if we can make it past all that,

09:40we will finally make it

09:41to the beautiful glowworm chamber.

09:43Don't tell us what that looks like.

09:45I want us to be surprised.

09:46Do you think we're going to make it?

09:47Whoa!

09:48Nah, let's not play that game.

09:50We're all going to make it.

09:51With tomorrow's plan thoroughly mapped out,

09:53we rested up and made feastable s'mores

09:55to regain our energy.

09:56Everyone, cheers!

09:57Yippee!

09:58Oh, Joel's about to have his first feastable s'more.

10:00All right, Joel, be honest.

10:02Joel approves?

10:03Joel approves.

10:04Why didn't we whip this chocolate out earlier?

10:06This just got like 10 times more fun.

10:07Guys, for real,

10:08if you've never tried s'mores with feastables,

10:10you're really missing out.

10:11Tomorrow, we're going to explore the entire cave.

10:14We'll see you guys then.

10:15So we tried to sleep as much as we could

10:16and prepare for tomorrow's journey

10:18to the end of the cave.

10:19We're about to embark

10:20on one of the most dangerous journeys of my life.

10:22Because of our experience from day three

10:24and focusing less on filming,

10:25we were able to make progress way faster.

10:28This water's cold.

10:30Just like the other day, bro.

10:32Nice and easy.

10:33And to ensure our best chance of survival,

10:35in addition to Joel,

10:36we brought another survival expert with us.

10:38This is where we had to stop on day three.

10:40How we doing?

10:41We're making much better time.

10:42Behind us, it's pitch black.

10:44Where do we go?

10:45This area gets narrow.

10:46The current's strong.

10:47So we're going to use the walls

10:49and kind of climb our way along.

10:51Yep, through we go.

10:53Oh, God.

10:54Jump for that first rock.

10:55There's a couple of good rocks around the corner

10:57is all you can get a hand onto.

10:58It's so dark down here.

11:00There's no bottom right now.

11:01My feet aren't touching the ground right now.

11:03Because we couldn't reach the ground,

11:05this meant that if we let go now,

11:07we could get swept away

11:08by the strong current directly beneath us.

11:10Joel, what are we doing?

11:11I would go into here if you can.

11:13That's a good one.

11:14I can't even see where I'm going.

11:15The current is taking me away.

11:17You got it, you got it.

11:18Get yourself in the air.

11:19That's going to get way easier for us.

11:21I go in here?

11:22Yep.

11:25Yeah, well done, well done.

11:26This might be the most insane thing we've ever done.

11:28We are much deeper in the cave than we've ever been.

11:31And we're now approaching our first serious obstacle.

11:34Basically, the water's recirculating.

11:36So if you fall in,

11:37it takes you to the bottom,

11:38and it keeps you there.

11:40If we fall, we would die.

11:41Yeah.

11:42Okay, so death is on the table.

11:43This is just not what I thought I was signing up for.

11:49Yeah, perfect.

11:51Yep, perfect.

11:54Woo!

11:55Caving is a lot harder than I thought.

11:57You can tell how strong this river is

11:58because it created this entire cave.

12:00And fun fact, we're not as strong as a cave.

12:03I'm barely as strong as a human.

12:05Well, fortunately for us,

12:06rather than Carl leading this expedition,

12:08we've got the literal Avenger, Joel.

12:10And just to prove how much of an expert he is,

12:13this man literally flexed on us

12:15by jumping off a cliff.

12:18Oh, my God.

12:20You're crazy!

12:21Who else is a bit crazy?

12:23Surely one of you guys are keen.

12:24I'm crazy!

12:25No shot you want to do that.

12:27What are you talking about?

12:28I'm doing it right now, baby!

12:29Let's go, Joel!

12:30Godspeed, man!

12:31After everything Jimmy's put me through.

12:33This ain't that scary for me.

12:35Three, two, one.

12:37Woo-hoo!

12:41Oh, yeah!

12:42You doing it?

12:43No, we got to keep going,

12:44or we will hit the end.

12:46Oh, my God.

12:49Can we go downstream?

12:50Why are we always fighting the current?

12:52I might just start drifting away.

12:53I might just give it up.

12:54There are sharp rocks underneath the water.

12:57You cannot see them,

12:58so watch your step.

12:59Oh, my God.

13:00It's getting deep again.

13:01I can't.

13:02I need to put my feet up.

13:03And if the sharp rocks weren't enough of a challenge,

13:05it seemed like with every step we took...

13:08Oh, bro!

13:09I can't see anything.

13:10This is terrifying.

13:11...the caves became darker,

13:12tighter,

13:14and ruthless enough

13:15that we began to question

13:16if we could even get to the finish line.

13:18Oh, God.

13:20This is exhausting.

13:22This cave is about to get a lot harder,

13:24and I have something I need to show all of you.

13:26Joel, can I see your bag?

13:28You know what you've been carrying?

13:30What have I been carrying?

13:31The brand-new Mr. Beast Lab Swarms.

13:34I'll be honest, guys.

13:35As you can see,

13:36because of what I've been going through

13:37for the past five hours,

13:38I'm clearly in no shape

13:39to tell you about this right now.

13:41And so a month after we filmed this,

13:42I built an entire cave set,

13:44threw on my Future Jimmy name tag,

13:46and then said,

13:47Hey, Future Jimmy here,

13:48and I'm gonna tell you about my brand-new toy line

13:49of Mr. Beast Lab Swarms.

13:51It's a collectible toy line

13:52with over 119 uniquely designed characters

13:55that you can collect.

13:56And the coolest part is,

13:57to find out which character you got,

13:59you pour water into this tube,

14:01shake it up,

14:02and the swarms will appear

14:03in front of your very eyes.

14:04And to demonstrate the product,

14:05I made this giant life-size version

14:07of the swarms tube.

14:08Fill the tube with water...

14:12You won't need this much water.

14:13This is just a giant tube.

14:15All right.

14:16And now that this is filled with water,

14:17Max is gonna give it a little shakage.

14:21Is it shaken up enough?

14:22I think it's shaken up enough.

14:24Then you pour out the water,

14:25do the honors, Joel.

14:28And out of the water

14:29will be revealed which two swarms you got.

14:31This is the rarest one,

14:32the Hyperchrome,

14:33that I only made 1,000 of.

14:34Joel, you can have it.

14:35You can have that one.

14:37Who does Carl get?

14:38I only have two.

14:40And we didn't just stop with the swarms.

14:41We also made these action figure panthers

14:43that are in these briefcases

14:44and this mutator that,

14:45just like the swarms,

14:46has a really cool reveal when you buy it.

14:48Where do I buy them?

14:49I'm glad you asked.

14:50Mr. Beast Lab toys are now available

14:51everywhere in the world you buy toys.

14:53They're all out now.

14:54Go give them a try.

14:55And after more brutal trekking

14:57throughout the cave,

14:58we finally arrived

14:59at the Glow Worm Chamber.

15:01Man, this better be worth it.

15:02All righty, team.

15:04Welcome to the Glow Worm Chamber.

15:07Whoa!

15:08Holy crap.

15:09That is crazy.

15:10Dude, this does not look like it's Earth.

15:12All of the lights you see here

15:14are actually created by

15:15tiny bioluminescent glow worms.

15:17That kind of looks like

15:18the Milky Way Galaxy.

15:19Wow.

15:20At this moment,

15:21this view,

15:22honestly,

15:23made that trek worth it.

15:25While making it to the glow worms

15:26was definitely worth the trip,

15:27our journey was still not over

15:29because we had to go

15:30all the way back to base camp.

15:33It's almost day six.

15:34They're not back,

15:35and I'm exhausted.

15:36I don't know if I'll be able to sleep, though.

15:37I'm just worried

15:38with them being gone so long.

15:39The trip back is way easier

15:40because we're just floating

15:41with the current.

15:42Now, because you guys

15:43have already seen the trip,

15:44we're going to expedite

15:45the way back.

15:46But seriously,

15:47this whole journey took so long,

15:48we crossed into day six

15:50before reaching camp.

15:51Sean!

15:52Sean!

15:53What's up, guys?

15:54I was starting to get worried.

15:55Happy day six.

15:56Day six, let's go.

15:57All we had energy to do

15:58was stall out by the fire

15:59and finally eat some food.

16:01That was a very adventurous day.

16:03I'll see you guys tomorrow

16:05or later today.

16:06It is day six.

16:07Yeah, maybe today.

16:08I don't know.

16:10Despite being physically obliterated

16:12from our excruciatingly long hike,

16:14no matter what I did,

16:15I was really struggling

16:16to fall asleep.

16:26I spent seven days

16:27in solitary confinement,

16:28seven days buried alive,

16:29seven days on a raft.

16:31And I'm going to be honest,

16:32I think this is harder

16:33than all of those.

16:34You're constantly soggy and cold.

16:37I just keep hitting my body

16:38on these hard rocks,

16:39and it hurts.

16:4090% of the time,

16:41this cave is miserable.

16:42But between me and you...

16:43Jimmy!

16:45Yo!

16:46Carl!

16:47Can you see me?

16:48Ah! Ah!

16:49It's the world's brightest flashlight.

16:50There are moments of fun

16:51in this cave.

16:52Woo-hoo!

16:53From conquering rapids

16:54300 feet underground...

16:56Woo!

16:57...to me and the boys

16:58laughing in our hammocks...

16:59Ha-ha-ha!

17:00...all the misery is worth it.

17:01Because when you're

17:02in good company...

17:03Let's make whale noises.

17:05...this wet, cold, rocky,

17:07miserable cave

17:08can easily transform into...

17:10The most beautiful trip

17:11of our lives.

17:21We cannot leave

17:22until everything is picked up.

17:24And when I say everything,

17:26I mean everything.

17:31Let's get out of here.

17:32And after our journey

17:33back to the mouth of the cave...

17:34Oh, it looks so good up there.

17:36...we had one more surprise

17:37for Joel.

17:38And before we head out,

17:39Joel, as a show of gratitude,

17:41we got you 50,000 New Zealand dollars.

17:43So it's 10 grand

17:44for every human

17:45you didn't let die.

17:46Oh, gosh.

17:47Thanks so much, Joe.

17:48We love you, Joel!

17:49And now that we got that

17:50out the way, let's leave.

17:51Woo!

17:53After seven long days,

17:55we're finally leaving!
