I read the book diving into darkness. Don did a dive to 250 meters to help his dive buddy Dave Shaw. They were recovering a body. The dive was in a sinkhole called Bushman's hole. He got bent at 150 meters. It got his ear so he got vertigo. He got nausea and did 12 hours of decompressing while vomitting.
I cave dive in the Uk havnt done anything that deep in a cave yet though, that looks great. Just read the fantastic book about Dave Shaw and Don Shirley " Raising the Dead" By Phillip Finch. Thanks for posting this vid.
I love scuba diving in South Africa!! :-) :-)

The place we dived belongs to Don. He owns the gas and training facility there. Does all his Cave and Trimix course there.
