HANG SON DOONG ON NATGEO - World's Biggest Cave Full Documentary

I found out about this cave from a Joe Rogan podcast. Anybody else? They mentioned that this wasn’t even discovered until 1995? That’s crazy!

For them to state that the first person ever to set foot in this cave did so in 1995, that's an pretty audacious claim to make. How the hell would they know!? There's so much hubris packed into that statement.

The local Hmong people that use to live near the cave before the Vietnam war shared stories about how the massive cave use to be home to a small group of shape shifting creatures. They told stories of some villagers who survived encounters with the shape shifters. Everyone who survived thier encounters tell a very similar story. They talk about encountering other villagers deep into the jungle while on a hunting and gathering trip. They say the shape shifters would look very similar to someone they know from thier own village but there's subtle differences that's off about the person like their ears are small or the persons forehead is a little bigger or thier fingers are really short with 7-8 fingers on each hand. Also the villagers speech is different such as a slightly higher voice. The real scary detail is what they say when they talk to you. They refer to humans as a cow or cattle. They would say, "how are you living today cow" or "are you traveling with a group of cattle". No one is sure what happened to the missing villagers that encounter the shape shifters in the past. The ones who survived said if you come across someone that looks familiar but greets you by calling you a cow with a higher pitch voice with an empty stare, run and don't stop or look back until you come to an open feild. Only then you can stop to catch your breath but as soon as you catch your breath, you need to continue running until you reach the safety of the village. Another horrifying detail about the shape shifters is that they can't bend at the knee so if you are being pursued by a shape shifter, run up hill........

This place is on my Top 3 places to visit in my lifetime One day i'll be there hopefully <3

It's like journey to the center of the earth, but real. 😅

i feel for the camera crew who werent allowed to exit the cave up the wall and had to turn back for 6 days

It wasn’t discovered in 1995. The locals knew about it.

Hats off to treckers and their challange

U sure u are the very first people to set foot on that cave? 🙄 Pretty sure the native people are the first one to explore that cave they just didn't record it in camera.

Soooooooo incredible! This planet is a Wunder and I hope we be able to live here together in Peace someday

I read about this cave in a paragraph question and now im here this is so exciting

Amazing 💚❤️

for $3,000 You can take the same tour they did, 5 nights & 6 days

I'm just saying not everything is meant for us to conquer..humans and their egos

Maybe it dates back to the great food, I'm sure at that time massive amounts of water flowed through.

If i went I would keep imagining the movie the descent and freak myself out 😮

Interesting fact the white wood louse/rollypolly/patato bug. There a cave in southern Ohio use to crawl through as a kid. But now it is off limits because the same thing a white wood loud/ rollypolly/ potato bug was discovered there that isn't found anywhere else in the world but this cave in southern Ohio USA

Adaptation not evolution

Have you thought of interviewing the locals to know their history about the cave ?

It seems unlikely that they are the first to set foot in that cave. There have been people in Vietnam for thousands of years
