Fantastic work from the DCRO team, and really good comms/media management, it comes across as a professional response.

Haven't they got the wrong cave? They've called it Perryfoot cave, which is part of the P1 swallet. Instead of P8 (Jackpot).

It was P8.

Definitely P8. It's not unusual for the media to get some details wrong.

You only noticed it when you know the details of the incident yourself. It is something to keep in mind with any media report. Some, or all of it is likely to be wrong!

Great work by the CRO, and i hope the caver involved is ok and recovers soon

We could now get some 'Underground Explorers' pushing to the bottom of Perryfoot Cave to see what all that fuss was about in the media. Hehe. Well at least it might finally get the Iron Maiden enlarged as a result

Or they'd soon realise that caving is out of their comfort zone and they'll never step foot into another cave again?

I don't think the CRO did too much.
DCRO spokesperson Anthony Matthews, I've been caving with Anthony, I feel like I've rubbed shoulders with a celeb

Maybe swap the name on Google maps for a bit. The Instagramers would soon be scared off.
