Anyone ever been accidentally locked inside a cave?
Just curious, because I nearly locked myself underground last year. I was changing the padlocks during a trip, and was about to snap shut the new lock on the gate when I realised the key was still in the car. It was a very close call.
Had I done it I would have died of embarrassment, waiting several hours till the call out time, knowing that nobody would ever let me forget it. As it was, no harm was done and I had the presence of mind to think at the last minute "have I got the key?" :-[
