Yeah a lot of gases accumulate in the bottom of old wells, especially this one being so deep. The carbon monoxide (toxic but does not smell) found in them can be fatal.
Carbon Dioxide will get you if you're not careful. It's heavier than oxygen so it doesn't dissipate and you add more every time you exhale.
A friend lost his Dad that way. Guy fell into a well and couldn't climb out. They found him the next day, but it was too late.
You're alive Matty!!! Sorry to hear that bout your friend's dad..that's awful!
Don't know much...what's that carbon stuff inside the car?Similar to that one?
That's Carbon Monoxide, exhaust fumes. Nasty stuff.
Carbon Dioxide is what we breathe out. It's not poisonous, like Carbon Monoxide, but being heavier than oxygen, the regular air sits on top of the CO2 and once it's above your nose, you're done for.
The son died too, car crash 20 years ago :(
Oh oops, I thought it was monoxide.
A horrible way to go... absolutely tragic. Sorry to hear that.
I don't know how the guys here made it without a mask or anything. They might have had an extra ventilating tube or something down there. My mom did say they often came back up for air but... doesn't sound very "professional"
From the earth. Precisely.
Should there be gases in there??😁😁

Their masks should have been proper to filter those gases..like the fire fighters'??
One would think...
