00:00I don't normally do intros like this, but I'm currently descending hundreds of feet into a cave that runs over five kilometers deep into the earth
00:08And whether we like it or not, as soon as my friends and I touch the ground
00:13We are officially stranded here for the next seven days
00:18That might have been the scariest thing I've ever done. First things first, we gotta get really far away from where we rappelled down
00:24Why? If it storms, this entire area includes flash floods
00:28Fill up like an ocean and potentially drown us all, which is why we're going deep into the cave to set up base camp
00:33Bro, this is just wicked. Dude, this is like a different world. This 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
00:48It'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?
00:53We're just looking for flat ground to set up camp. Upon entering the mouth of the cave
00:57We stumbled upon an area with high enough elevation to protect us from any flash flooding, meaning that it was perfect for camp
01:04Perfect is a crazy word. Good enough is what I would use. Good enough for camp
01:07We spent the rest of day one
01:09Grabbing our supplies that we were dropped with. Each one of these bags weighs like 80 pounds. And as you can see by the footage
01:14We spent around four hours. This is very hard to traverse
01:18Getting all of it back up to our base camp. Alright, we've got some lights on in here
01:23Our supplies are finally at our home base
01:25And if you point the camera over there
01:27You'll see it's pitch black
01:29It took all day. And so we set up the bare minimum for camping grounds
01:33We drilled holes to hang up some ropes. Grab these, pull yourself up
01:36Looks like the ropes will be able to support hammocks. And with the help of our survival guide Joel, we hung our hammocks
01:42This thin rope is what holds up my hammock. Yeah. Ate 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. Hey
01:52Oh God
01:54Why is my head so big bro?
01:56This part of the cave is two and a half kilometers deep and we're basically camping at the entrance. Tomorrow
02:01We have a lot of exploring
02:07How'd you guys sleep?
02:08Horribly. I didn't. It's a very perplexing environment. The caves constantly dripping water on us from above
02:14So we put a tarp over us, but even still the waters dripping into our hammocks. I 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. That's literally genius. I'm not just a youtuber
02:26Okay, my hammock gets out right here
02:29Are we serious right now?
02:30This is where I just got out of bed and we didn't realize it at the time
02:33But this hole is almost 40 feet deep
02:35So while Sean and I got started on the super tarp Mac and Carl went to see how dangerous this hole was for themselves
02:41Do you see my hammock up there? That is where I slept. Now look at this. And because everything looks the same
02:46It's probably pretty hard to follow us in this cave. On this map
02:49You can see our home base and how far they're moving away from it
02:52Alright Mac, it's been real bro. Oh bro, this is crazy
02:55While the boys are randomly exploring, me and Sean actually have to work on the camp
03:00Why is there a sleeping bag over here?
03:03Because it smelled like pee
03:05Ew. Lesson number one. Don't rent your sleeping bags. Why did we rent sleeping bags?
03:10Why did we not just buy sleeping bags? We're zip-tying the tarps together to create one mega tarp. Don't mind me just
03:17Trusting this rope with my life. And meanwhile, Mac and Carl were still in a hole. Oh my god
03:24And eventually they finally made it to the bottom
03:28We're supposed to be working on camp. We just wanted to show how dangerous camp was. Just don't fall. It's a skill issue
03:34Oh, okay
03:36Even though they should have been on their way back, Carl and Mac insisted on seeing how deep they could go. Bro, this just looks so crazy
03:42You think you could make it through the river?
03:47But little do these two know, this river actually runs throughout the entire cave, which means we'll be spending some time in it
03:56Tell me you guys cooked. Oh, we cooked. That's right. A new home, am I right? Let's go. We now have a roof
04:03Look at this. I'm not gonna lie, it's actually kind of gross. And we moved the fire pit to this little cove we found
04:08What do you think? It's warmer. It's cozy. These rocks trap the heat here and block the pee from the rocks above
04:14It's not pee. What do I call it? I don't know, maybe rain or something. It's not rain. It's rocks
04:20Point it up. Do you see clouds? No. You see rocks. It's not rain. Rock pee. Rock pee
04:26rock pee fine
04:27It's rock pee. And after a much drier night of sleep
04:30We decided to have Joel, our survival expert, help us get all the way to the end of the cave
04:37Cave! CAVE! CAVE! CAVE! CAVE!
04:40Let's see how deep in the cave we can make it.
04:44Now, keep in mind that 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.
04:51Oh my gosh, this is kind of steep.
04:53Bro, you ain't seen nothing yet.
04:54We'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.
05:00The interesting part about cave exploration
05:02is one second, you're barely fitting
05:04through cracks in the rocks.
05:05Oh my God, this is so tight.
05:06And then the next, you're in a massive chamber,
05:09so big that in order to see it all, we had to do this.
05:12Woo!
05:13Oh my God, I can actually see now.
05:16This is awesome.
05:17This thing is bright.
05:18Woo!
05:20Bro, look at how cool this is.
05:21Yeah!
05:23So bright, I can't even look at it.
05:24I feel like I'm getting blinded.
05:25Oh no, oh no!
05:27In hindsight, we probably didn't use that
05:29the most effectively.
05:30Lead the way.
05:31And so we continued on.
05:33Jail frame is a really good handle at the top there.
05:36And then you can sort of swing a foot around onto this one.
05:38Like this?
05:39Yep, perfect.
05:40Joel, the best caving guide ever.
05:42No one's died yet.
05:44All right guys, this is where things get interesting.
05:47What?
05:47What is this?
05:49So from this point on, wetsuits, we'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!
06:01Meeting wetsuits are the only way to 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 and fight the rapids
06:13through this tiny hole in the rock
06:15and carefully squeeze our way through it.
06:17Take your time, it will take your feet
06:19behind you a little bit.
06:20All right, I'm getting in the river.
06:21You want to follow the wall around.
06:23It's so cold!
06:26You got it, Jimmy.
06:27Ah, I 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
06:34Ah, it's so cold!
06:35is when you're completely submerged in freezing cold water,
06:38gripping onto the rocks becomes incredibly hard.
06:42Oh my gosh, that was crazy!
06:43Matt, Carl, let's go!
06:45I'm scared!
06:46You got this!
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!
06:56Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it!
06:58We're now 10% done!
07:00Which means we've only scratched the surface
07:02of 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.
07:20As long as we keep moving now that the bodies are wet,
07:22you got it!
07:23Temperatures are gonna drop quickly.
07:24Why is this so difficult?
07:29The worst part is, every inch we go this way,
07:33is 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?
07:42I don't see a spider.
07:43That means it's probably on us.
07:43Oh my God, it's on you, it's on you!
07:45I hate my friends.
07:46This cave is like a MrBeast video.
07:48The further you go, the harder it gets.
07:50Just straight up, if we didn't have Joel, I'd be dead.
07:53And after three hours, Joel had some bad news for us.
07:56The water's too high, and we've taken too long.
07:59We're gonna have to turn around for today
08:01and head back to camp.
08:02I disagree!
08:03You can't disagree with the safety experts!
08:05I disagree!
08:06Well, we can't really disagree.
08:07It turns out, we wasted way too much time filming
08:10and playing with flares, to the point
08:12where we now had to restart
08:13and attempt this mission another day.
08:18Sean, we're back!
08:19What'd you do while we were gone?
08:21Hopefully nobody gets wet now.
08:22I didn't even know we packed lights.
08:24Yeah, they're awesome, right?
08:25Sadly, we only made it 20% through the cave today,
08:27but mark my words, we will go the distance in a future day.
08:32That's not gonna happen.
08:33We might rest on day four, and then on day five,
08:36try 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.
08:41I'll see you guys tomorrow.
08:45And after a third miserable night in the cave,
08:47the next morning, we only had one thing in mind.
08:50A hot shower would literally save my life right now.
08:53Oh, a showering would be awesome.
08:55I haven't showered in three, four days!
08:58As you can imagine, showering inside a cave isn't easy.
09:00We had to hike all the way back to where we rappelled in
09:03to safely reach the riverbed.
09:04Whoa!
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!
09:13Hold on, Fredo, stop, 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
09:25because 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 about to be wild.
09:32First, we'll need to pass some of those same rapids
09:34from yesterday, dive off massive cliffs,
09:37and avoid jagged rocks.
09:38And if we can make it past all that,
09:40we will finally make it to 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 gonna make it?
09:47Whoa!
09:49Nah, let's not play that game.
09:50We're all gonna 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.
10:01All right, Joel, be honest.
10:02That's great.
10:03Joel approves?
10:04That was great.
10:05Why didn't we whip this chocolate out earlier?
10:06This just got like 10 times more fun.
10:08Guys, for real,
10:08if you've never tried s'mores with feastables,
10:10you're really missing out.
10:12Tomorrow, we're gonna explore the entire cave.
10:14We'll see you guys then.
10:15So we tried to sleep as much as we could
10:17and prepare for tomorrow's journey to the end of the cave.
10:20We'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,
10:26we were able to make progress way faster.
10:29This water's cold.
10:30Just like the other day, bro.
10:32No, it's not 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?
10:41I think we're making much better time.
10:42Behind us, it's pitch black.
10:44Where do we go?
10:45This area gets narrow,
10:46and the current's strong.
10:48So we're gonna use the walls
10:49and kinda climb our way along.
10:51Yep, through we go.
10:52I got it.
10:53I'll go.
10:54Yeah, jump for that first rock.
10:55There's a couple of good rocks around the corner as well
10:57that you can get a hand onto.
10:59It'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'll go into here if you can.
11:13That's a good one.
11:13I can't even see where I'm going.
11:15The current is taking me away.
11:17You got it.
11:18You got it.
11:19Get yourself in there,
11:20and it's gonna get way gentler.
11:21I go in here?
11:22Yep, in the hole.
11:25Yeah, well done, well done.
11:26This might be the most insane thing we've ever done.
11:29We 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,
11:39and 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.
11:48Well done.
11:49Yeah, perfect.
11:50So now I put my foot here?
11:51Yeah, correct.
11:52All right.
11:55Caving is a lot harder than I thought.
11:57You can tell how strong this river is
11:59because it created this entire cave.
12:01And fun fact,
12:02we'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,
12:09we've got the literal Avenger, Joel.
12:11And 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.
12:21I'm supposed to look crazy.
12:23Surely one of you guys are keen.
12:24I'm crazy.
12:26No 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.
12:34This 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 or we will hit the end.
12:46Oh my God.
12:50Can we go downstream?
12:52Why are we always fighting the current?
12:53I might just start drifting away.
12:54I might just give it up.
12:55There are sharp rocks underneath the water.
12:57You cannot see them.
12:59So watch your step.
13:00Oh my God.
13:01It's getting deep again.
13:02I can't, I need to put my feet up.
13:03And if the sharp rocks weren't enough of a challenge,
13:06it seemed like with every step we took.
13:09I can't see anything.
13:10This is terrifying.
13:11The cave became darker, tighter,
13:14and ruthless enough that we began to question
13:17if we could even get to the finish line.
13:20Oh, this 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?
13:29You 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, as 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 to tell you about this right now.
13:41And so a month after we filmed this,
13:43I built an entire cave set,
13:44threw on my future Jimmy name tag,
13:46and then said, hey, future Jimmy here,
13:48and I'm gonna tell you about my brand new toy line
13:50of Mr. Beast Lab Swarms.
13:51It's a collectible toy line
13:53with over 119 uniquely designed characters
13:56that you can collect.
13:57And the coolest part is,
13:58to find out which character you got,
13:59you pour water into this tube, shake it up,
14:02and the swarms will appear in front of your very eyes.
14:05And to demonstrate the product,
14:06I made this giant life-size version of the swarms tube.
14:09Fill the tube with water.
14:12You won't need this much water.
14:13This is just a giant tube.
14:15All right, and now that this is filled with water,
14:17Mac's gonna give it a little shake-age.
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 will be revealed
14:30which two swarms you got.
14:31This is the rarest one, the Hyperchrome,
14:33that I only made 1,000 of.
14:34Joel, you can have it.
14:36You 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, just 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.
14:49Mr. Beast Lab toys are now available
14:52everywhere in the world you buy toys.
14:53They're all out now.
14:54Go give them a try.
14:55And after more brutal trekking throughout the cave,
14:58we've finally arrived at the Glow Worm Chamber.
15:01Man, this better be worth it.
15:02All righty, team.
15:04Welcome to the Glow Worm Chamber.
15:08Whoa!
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 tiny bioluminescent glow worms.
15:17That kind of looks like the Milky Way Galaxy.
15:20Wow.
15:21At this moment, this view,
15:23honestly, made that trek worth it.
15:25While making it to the glow worms
15:26was definitely worth the trip,
15:28our journey was still not over,
15:29because we had to go all the way back to base camp.
15:33It's almost day six.
15:35They're not back, and I'm exhausted.
15:37I don't know if I'll be able to sleep, though.
15:38I'm just worried with them being gone so long.
15:40The trip back is way easier
15:41because we're just floating with the current.
15:43Now, because you guys have already seen the trip,
15:45we're gonna expedite the way back.
15:46But seriously, this whole journey took so long,
15:49we crossed into day six before 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 was thaw out by the fire
16:00and finally eat some food.
16:01That was a very adventurous day.
16:03I'll see you guys tomorrow, or later today.
16:06It is day six.
16:08Yeah, maybe today?
16:09I don't know.
16:10Despite being physically obliterated
16:13from our excruciatingly long hike,
16:14no matter what I did,
16:15I was really struggling to fall asleep.
16:26I spent seven days in solitary confinement,
16:28seven days buried alive, seven days on a raft,
16:31and I'm gonna be honest,
16:32I think this is harder than all of those.
16:34You're constantly soggy and cold.
16:37I just keep hitting my body on these hard rocks,
16:39and it hurts.
16:4090% of the time, this cave is miserable,
16:43but between me and you...
16:44Jimmy!
16:45Yo!
16:46Carl!
16:47Can you see me?
16:48Fuck!
16:49Fuck!
16:49It's the world's brightest flashlight.
16:50There are moments of fun in this cave.
16:52Woo-hoo!
16:53From conquering rapids 300 feet underground.
16:56Woo!
16:57From me and the boys laughing in our hammocks.
17:00All the misery is worth it.
17:01Because when you're in good company...
17:04Let's make whale noises.
17:06This wet, cold, rocky, miserable cave
17:08can easily transform into...
17:11The most beautiful trip of our lives.
17:21We cannot leave until everything is picked up.
17:24And when I say everything, I mean everything.
17:31Let's get out of here.
17:32And after our journey back to the mouth of the cave...
17:35Oh, it looks so good up there.
17:36We had one more surprise for 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 for every human you didn't let die.
17:46Oh gosh, thanks so much, Joel.
17:48We love you, Joel!
17:50Now that we got that out the way, let's leave!
17:52Woo!
17:53After seven long days, we're finally leaving!
