Watched internet historians youtubevideo about the dude.Damn horrible situation…
Now go watch hbomberguy’s video about plagiarism to be aware of how much of this Internet Historians video is stolen.
Cool, looks like a lot of video to watch, I’ll take your word for it. Not too surprising thinking about it.
Maybe not surprising, but still disappointing. I liked IH videos, but knowing that a lot of it is stolen, puts a stain on it. But at least it explains why his videos tend to disappear from his channel.
Edit: The IH part starts at around 1:25:00 and lasts 20 minutes.
Was he the guy who also kept making all sorts of Nazi references?
guy covers historical event doesn’t rewrite history, instead takes what someone else has written about event doesn’t use own fotos, uses someone elses foto instead makes mistakes
I am not saying this is a big nothing burger, but his only real mistakes was not to list his sources.
Yeah, no. He almost entirely verbatim copied the text and wording on the original article and shuffled some words around to try and make it less obvious (and failed). It is blatant plagiarism, there is no other way to call it. This was no innocent mistake of forgetting to list a source. Watch the hbomberguy video segment about it, it paints a very clear picture.
The one thing about that which I find worth defending, is how much his video made the story entertaining. I wouldn’t have read the article but his video kept me engaged . Even if the writing was copied, he still added a lot to it.
That’s the most baffling thing. His video was transformative. Had he just credited the writing he’d probably be fine but he just decided not to, for some reason.
Adding video isn’t transformative. Otherwise Disney could just turn any book they want into a movie without ever paying anyone for the rights.
We should really have a spelunking agency go around closing off these “no room to turn around” passageways because as fun as these caver types are personally, they’re also the kind of morons who see a very obviously dangerous hole off the recommended path and think “LEZZDOIIIIIIIIT!” Basically most of the cast of “As Above So Below”, “What’s that, this supposed passageway to hell is shifting in ways to reveal passages that are unknown even to this expert catacomb guide despite his tag being on the walls? LET’S KEEP GOING!”
Abandoned mine explores too. Hey! Arsenic water and 100 year old dynamite! Geotechnical hazards! LETS GOOOOOO
I don’t have claustrophobia, but thinking about this dude is about as close as I get. What an awful way to die, and I can’t imagine how insane you have to be to enjoy this hobby.
Dude had a very long time to contemplate and regret every choice he made that caused him to end up in that situation
This is the time where I’d be like you can break whatever is needed to get me out of this fucking hole. I’ll scream but keep pulling.
IIRC if they broke his legs to get him out he very likely could have died from shock.
Couldn’t they have sedated him or something? This is just an awful way to die.
Any anesthesiologists volunteering to crawl down there?
In a situation like this, I don’t think they’d be worried about harming him. Dude was going to die, so if I’m him, try everything possible.
You’d have to be really nutty.
Nutty putty?
Too soon

The story about a man stuck in a cave that gave me nightmares forever, after watching the video, this new story can’t hurt me anymore:

Watch it, the way the story is told is great, a classic! 10/10 nightmares, will watch again!Edit: I was made aware that the video plagiarised heavily an article by someone else, so I leave the link to the original work here too: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/544782/1925-cave-rescue-that-captivated-the-united-states-floyd-collins
Just FYI, that whole video is plagiarised from an article written by someone else.
The video credits an article in its description and its author: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/544782/1925-cave-rescue-that-captivated-the-united-states-floyd-collins Is it this one?
Yes, but the video has been deleted and reuploaded several times after been called out.
For any cave dweller who haven’t seen it, here’s Hbomberguy talking about the history of this video and it’s plagiarism, as @Mago alluded to. https://piped.video/watch?v=yDp3cB5fHXQ&t=5071 (if the timecode doesn’t work, it’s arond the 1:24~25 mark.
Is this hussein?
search ‘nutty putty cave’
No, I don’t think I will
No that guy is a med student. For what it’s worth he really really really wants to get out of there.
Actually, he seems to be at peace with it now.
Jesus christ, I’m horrible.
I’ll see myself out…unlike others.
Holy mother of God…
my good fellow, you just won 2 internets! congratulations!
I wasn’t even trying. Just trying to keep my head down.
Aaw fuck…
2 internets? Are they on floppies or CD-ROMs?
Just seeing this image gives me anxiety at a whole different level
okay but what if I’m only going to stay there 24 hours and then die? Do I still have to pay for a whole month?
Please arrange a professional clean prior to vacating or we will arrange our own and the cost will be forwarded to you. Thanks.
