Dropping a Gopro Down a Flooded Mine Shaft

- Hiking in the Cahaba Coal Fields, @MrTropics64 and I stumbled across an open air shaft that would have went deep down inside this abandoned coal mine. According to the maps, in 1906, this air shaft would have extended down 600 feet (183 meters) reaching the inner workings of the mine. Wondering what or who is down there, as this would make a good dumping spot, we decide to get our fishing pole and drop a GoPro to see. Outside of an open shaft, coming across a fan house with the fan and blades still intact is a rare find.

Why is that not covered or at least fenced off? Imagine walking around there in the dark
I wonder how many animals have died because nobody bothered to cover this death trap.
That mine should be listed on Department of Mines and Energy historical registrar, someone needs to put a cover over that mine entrance
How the hell has this not been capped or fenced off, anybody or any poor unfortunate animal could fall down there in the dark. Could even be a missing person down there. Its appalling that the authorities have just left this open like this. Total lack of respect for safety.
I wonder why that huge hole isn't covered up or a big fence to be put around it ,to keep animals and people out .
Can’t believe it’s not covered
I agree with people in the comments, why don’t they have fence?
From the video doesn't seem to go to far unless that's a false floor covered in dirt and debris and the fan depending on the main audits location was to create a vacuum pulling air in through the main audit and other shoots lower in that location and judging by the fans blades that's what they were doing.
We hope you enjoyed this episode of Go Pro fishing for Bituminous Trout.
But dumb of them lot not covering that over 🤯🤦
Man…. So very cool. Spooky noises under water lol. Another great video. Thanks for the adventure.
The fan would suck air out, not force it in
So cool!! Must have been a big mouse with a big piece of cheese to run that fan!!!
In a coal mines are never Force air into the coal mine they always suck it out and if you look at the fan again you can see it has to suck out and the most important reason I always suck out instead of blowing in is if there's a gas pocket in there and it blows up you don't want to blow towards you as you're working that way it sucks the gas out and not blows the flames back towards you just a note
Good stuff!! Love the history!!
Huge fan of your channel!😁😁
I like how towards the end he talked about the fan like 4 times before actually talking about it
Thats a death and a half man id have had to have built some sort of fence round it with all the dead fall logs and stuff like that before i left sketchy as hell that is
Cool find. Wouldn’t want be out hunting and stumble across one like that early morning or late eve.
