One of the leading causes of death in cave diving is when the guidelines are improperly used or improperly marked by the divers as they navigate the cave. Donald and Alex entered Ehrlito Cave from the little unassuming pond on the surface. As Alex went to tie off his buoyancy device, which is a little device that fills with air to increase or decrease your buoyancy, got loose and shot up to the ceiling of the cave. Donald immediately swam over to Alex to help him try to untangle the line, but Alex started panicking. Silt is the dust and sediment that sits at the bottom of the cave and when it gets kicked up in the small spaces inside of a cave, it brings the visibility to almost zero. Knowing how dangerous this situation was, Donald took a few big steps backward away from Alex so he didn't get caught in the line either and so he could regain visibility. Donald grabbed it and tried to calm himself down once again but there was a new problem. Behind him, deeper into the cave was silt free and clear. In addition, there was a jump in between where he was and where he needed to be, meaning that he would have to find his way untethered through the silt to make it out of the cave. Beginning to panic once again he frantically swam back to the main line on the opposite side of the silt.
