It is a great escape from the day to day

It's definitely not for everyone that's for sure. I've been underground with new cavers who swore they weren't claustrophobic until we reached a squeeze, then reality comes calling!

Harder as in access to caves, or age related aches and pains?! Access to most caves in the UK is pretty straight forward if you are a member of a club. Many caves are protected and require permissions. The age related issues just keep getting worse each year 🙄

Yeah, that could be problematic!

The broken knuckle was an unfortunate accident during a public show. The angle of the sword thrust happened to go up into my glove and popped a knuckle. The sword to the face was during training by someone who should have known better than to sneak a semi-sharp in. Still, scars to your face add character!

Yes, usually referred to as potholing in the UK. Squeezing through tight spaces underground for fun!

Caving (although not so much these days) and FPV drone flying

I used to do historical reenactment so would regularly fight with swords, spears, axes, knives etc. Great fun but the injuries start to really hurt over time. A broken knuckle and getting stabbed in the face with a semi-sharp sword that resulted in a hospital visit were my worst!

You're welcome 👍🏻

Yeah, it's a bit of a confusing icon

Same here, I enjoyed the film. It portrayed Jones well as an aging person who is past their prime giving it one last shot. The action was good, the plot was enjoyable, the Nazis got a kicking. What's not to like?
