Cave Explorers

This RKO-Pathe Screenliner short explores the cave explorers. This follows a group of explorers going into a cave in Austria. They literally squeeze into a hole in the ground lowering themselves down with rope. It's interesting to see the old equipment and it's a compelling wait to see inside the caves. The issue is that the limited black and white cinematography is not kind to the cave visuals. They don't have enough light to illuminate the entire scene. It looks interesting but better filming will make it even better. It was probably entrancing for young boys of its times.
