In past years, I went into some caves in eastern OK that in some spots were much like the one in the video I posted. Even some tunnels that were maybe 2‘ wide and high that were used by bats, sometimes while we were in them…
Up in South Dakota, Wind Cave and Jewel Cave are developed attractions where one can go on tours standing up and with plenty of room. However, they told us that there are areas of both cave complexes that have yet to be explored. While the two areas are fairly close, they haven't determined whether the two cave systems join in any places.
I've got pictures in both areas in the South Dakota folder at my Smugmug site.

Just get in and do it.
Seems boring.

I was a tower rat in a refinery years ago. Going in something made of metal doesn't bother me like going in a cave that could collapse on me. As I got older going under the house was hard to do anymore and it wasn't because I had put on weight.
DITTO!!
There are some advantages to being a fat kid, so tight small places are out. 
The cave at Jester is pretty good.
Buddies an I found several old gold mines out in Arizona where we wintered the last two years to explore. Went in what we figured was 1/4 mile back into one before hitting intersecting tunnels that all looked the same so we backed out.
What sucks is that walking in you kick up some dust that has been laying there for a hundred years or so into the absolutely dead air, making it almost impossible to see anything more than a foot or two in front of your face. We just had to feel along the walls to get out of one of them.
