On 22nd March 1959, Oscar Neil Moss, an Oxford undergrad went to Peak Cavern, Derbyshire Cave with some other cave enthusiasts. In an attempt to go beyond what thousands have only managed to explore, Moss dropped down an unexplored pothole 1,000 feet from the entrance cave, and there he became trapped.
Gradually becoming poisoned by carbon dioxide, his rescuers would race against time to try to save him and risking their lives in the rescue attempt.
This is the tragic story of the Neil Moss incident.

I guess in caving, the first ever thing you need is an oxygen cylinder. Lots of them…
I was a month old when this happened.
The perpetual circle of life and death has always intrigued me.
I was also born about two weeks after Buddy Holly's plane went down.
The circle of life…
When a baby is born, when I pass off the scene, at least I won't have died in a cave…no way!!!
1st rule of caving. Don't talk about caving.
I wonder what is further down the shaft.
No thanks. I’m going to stay home and play PS5 for fun. Good luck with that cave diving stuff.
Sad what happened to him. But, it’s also stupid and dangerous cave diving. What did he think was going to happen?
Any hobbies that requires someone else to risk their lives to save you from your hobby. Shouldn't be a hobby
Imagine all that and his name ain't Neil it's Niel, the disrespect is huge
Just blatantly ripping someone else's style. No one will notice.
I didn't notice, I'm just saying someone might notice. The thumbnails aren't a dead giveaway, I promise. It just happened to end up looking that way by coincidence.
No one will notice.
Call me what you want, but i don't feel sorry for any individual who puts themselves in harms way knowingly just for some adrenaline rush
Neil moss and chamber of secrets. See this would not have happened if there was tiktok that tym
5:32 That's the diagonal distance of the screen from corner to corner, but still a decent reference
Fifth rule of caving: don't scream.
Niel*
I am going caving tomorrow, I am going to prove that people with my level of intelligence would never get stuck.
That's not Calcite. Giants "relieved" themselves down their. I wouldn't drink that if I were you.
what do they all expect to find there except adrenaline rush)
Is this an AI voice? Who did the narration? It sounds different from your other videos.
Next time, come with a drill to make it bigger.
When the BBC called for help, were they wearing party hats
I don't feel sorry for him only for his helpers
Here’s an idea… with all the technological advancements we have these days, build a top quality drone and send that down the cave. That way you can explore the cave and the only thing you could lose is a bit of tech.
Carbon dioxide, not carbon monoxide
Curiosity killed the cat
Noone talks about it, but being overweight & fat can save one life by not sticking your ass in deadly caves😂
That's too bad. Im pretty sure I could do it though. I'll give it a try, who's with me guys?!
If I want an adrenaline rush I’ll try 5pm traffic🫡
Why would anybody want to do this is beyond my imagination – sheer stupidity!
umm couldn't they try to save him while having an oxygen tank? if you don't have the tank for you to breathe there how can you think that you can help him? People were that dumb? It's like you want to rescue someone from a very deep ocean without having one with yourself to begin with
