Located along the Limestone Coast, The Shaft is one of the region’s most alluring yet treacherous underwater caves. In 1973, while attempting to explore the sinkhole’s submerged chambers, a group of 9 divers came up against their own mortality - and some didn't live through the experience.
The tragedy underscored the extreme dangers of cave diving in Australia. The Shaft, known for its alluring depths and limited visibility, would go on to become a symbol of the deadly potential of underwater exploration. This incident prompted authorities to create a body for training divers, enforce tighter safety measures in the sport, shaping the future of cave diving regulations in the region.
Join Holly & Matthew as they look into one of Holly's biggest fears: Drowning alone in the dark, hundreds of feet below water level.
