just heard it on the news, anybody have more info??
happened yesterday - Sat 8/20. i was there and when we left at about 6:30 pm there was no activity and nobody had been reported missing yet. it mustve been later when they figured it out. news just said he was a 20 year old UNF student cave diving. kinda creepy knowing i was there and probably saw him.
EDIT -
tv news report was a little off, at least if this other news report is more accurate. this article says he was freediving not SCUBA. everytime ive been to ginnie i see a lot of those going down into the cavern and always thought it was pretty dumb. i also always figured there are so many divers around, if something happened, somebody would help them. this kid was doing it at dogwood springs though where no divers go. we walked right past there after going on a tube float yesterday and there was nobody even swimming in that area.
