Sounds like my sort of fun! Totally pointless and moderately dangerous - what more recommendations
could a man ask for?


Want something totally pointless, and a little more than moderately dangerous? Try this (from a web site of a good friend of mine - he photographed my wedding):

Wow. Not only is that an incredible chamber, but an incredible photo as well. Truly up there on the "Cool!!!" scale...

Notice the guy rapelling off the rope near the center of the image. Imagine rapelling into that abyss in total darkness. This is the largest known cave chamber in the Eastern U.S. You should browse that web site. The guy is a photographic genius, avid caver, and amateur astronomer. Your kind of guy! The guy who took these pictures is shown on that page above. If you scroll down until you see three pictures together, Chris is the one wearing the red jumpsuit and handling the camera. He is also a State Trooper (State Police Officer), and you will "respect his authortay", as Kartman says on South Park. I won't dare try to compare the danger there to cave diving, yet it will definitely get your adrenaline pumping.
