Please wait...

I don’t think they understand what the word “bottomless” means…

“Bottomless Pit 65 feet deep”

This is in Mammoth Cave somewhere in Kentucky. It’s called the Bottomless Pit because in the 18th century the first people to explore it [using lamps and ropes and usually going by themselves] didn’t dare go down to investigate how deep it actually was, and a rock was allegedly thrown and no one heard it strike. The name stuck.

The sign is true. The bottomless pit actually starts at 65 feet down.

Thanks bob, thought the sign was a fake…

It says 65 ft deep, not 65 ft away or down, just FYI.
