Re: [Texascavers] a new cave rescue story

[Nancy Weaver via Texascavers]

interesting read.  My only experiences with people panicking at tight spots 
that they had previously negotiated, was that the very fear seemed to make them 
swell up and ‘not believe’ they could go forward.  It seemed that all my energy 
went toward getting them to relax enough to go thru.  Laughter helped.  Its 
interesting to watch someone who clearly is physically capable become 
large/clumsy/paralyzed with fear.  And the obverse - the ‘oversized’ caver who 
slithers through a tight spot easily because they know they can.
