Robert Irwin is constantly doing dangerous things in his line of work. However, he recently gave his fans a scare as he decided to explore a cave that was far too small for their liking.

No Cave Too Small For This Explorer
The video starts with Robert on a boat, seemingly enjoying the wilderness. He gets the driver to pull over near a cave. Then, he expresses his interest in the cave systems and how amazing he thinks they are. He admits that he has never explored this particular spot and decides to go in—head first.
The boat’s captain stands back and records as Robert Irwin squeezes his head into the tiny opening. While most of us would avoid exploring unknown caves, Robert says, “I’m just going to put my head up in and see what’s going on.” I am sure I speak for most of us when I say I was just hoping no snake or other creature was waiting inside the hole.
Robert Irwin Gives Fans Second-Hand Claustrophobia With Tiny Cave
As if the risk of sticking his face into an unknown cave isn’t enough, Robert decides to take it a step further. Viewers can hear him say, “It goes way up there, hang on a minute.” From there, he decides to place his entire body inside the cave.
Even those who are not typically claustrophobic held their breath as Robert Irwin shimmed into this tight cave’s opening. The camera footage showed how he had to lay prone and remain flat to even enter the cave. After a few moments, Robert Irwin’s head popped out on top of the cave.
“Hey, it comes out here!” He exclaims excitedly. The explorer happily returns to his boat, proud of his new discovery. He ends the video by stating, “That was cool!” While I am not sure all of his fans would agree, everyone agrees that they are glad he is alright.
Fans shared their nerves in the comment section. One user wrote, ” ‘I’m just gonna pop my head in this cave’, will not be something I ever say.” Another added, “This gives me such anxiety #besafe.” A third chimed in, “Not me, pulling my legs back getting nervous. ‘Nooooooo! Don’t go in the cave, I can’t look, I can’t look.'”
We are all glad Robert is safe and sound and lives to explore another day.
