New? National Geographic program on the "Lost Crystal Caves"

Postby Caverdale » Oct 2, 2010 10:48 pm

The October 2010 issue of Scientific American has an advertisement from National Geographic Channel entitled "Drop Dead Gorgeous. But don't stay too long - The heat in these caves can kill within 30 minutes". This is about the cave with the giant gypsum crystals in Mexico. The program premiers Sunday October 10 on the National Geographic Channel at 9 pm eastern time and again at 9 pm Pacific time on the west coast feed, if you can get that. "Premier" would indicated that it is not a repeat of previous showings about this cave. The web page is: natgeotv.com/crystalcaves

Boy, now that's a first. I was under the impression you could die in 10 minutes. No TV show ever makes things less dangerous.

It wasn't realized from their announcement, but after a review of the schedule this crystal cave program will be 2 hours long! Obviously something new.
