1.10: Floyd Collins and Sand Cave

from Strange Ride Hosted by Robert Thompson

On January 30th, 1925, a man named Floyd Collins entered Sand Cave hoping that one day he could turn this cave into a great tourist attraction. As he squeezes through the tight crevices that are so snug he must lie flat on his back with his arms pressed up against his sides, he accidentally knocks over his lantern, and is now in pitch blackness. In this episode we will be talking about the nightmare that became Floyd Collins life as he desperately tried to survive, while friends and family tried their hardest to free him from Sand Cave.
