They Went Into The Old Mine Shaft For Fun — The Air Killed Them Before The Dark Did

Three friends brought helmets, ropes and backup flashlights into an abandoned Nevada mine — and prepared for every danger they could see. Less than a hundred feet from daylight, all three were unconscious on a solid floor, with no warning their bodies ever gave them. This is the story of what oxygen-deficient air actually does to a person, why the rotten-egg smell disappears at the worst possible moment, why more than half of confined space deaths are the people who ran in to help — and the friend who stayed at the entrance and made the hardest call of her life.
