Imagine using the both incorrect and boring “caver” when the correct term is the magnificently hilarious “spelunker”!

Not true. I’m in Denmark and refuse to use the boring term when the fun one is correct

Wild, I had always thought it was just the scuba diving in a cave.

It just feels like it should be because it makes a “spelunk” sound when you cannonball into the water.
