Located in Wimberley,
Texas, Jacob's Well has become a dangerous place for exploring divers to
venture into.It doesn't seem to be dangerous for divers who jump in and
swim right out. But so far 8 exploring divers have lost their lives in
this place.
The well is just 4 meters wide at it's mouth and it's entire caving systems have been divided into 4 different chambers. The first, and most accessible part is a 30 feet drop. It then angles and tunnels in another 55 feet. The 2nd chamber is 80 feet deep and opens to the 3rd chamber from a very small opening. The 3rd chamber is just like a small room with gravel flooring.To get to the 4th chamber, the divers have to navigate through a very tight passage.
The 4th chamber is very difficult to get into and is also called "Virgin Cave". People who get thrills out of adrenaline rushes have made video's of how deep they can go into the 1st chamber. It's quite a risky game people like to play at this place.But if we keep diving aside. The water at Jacob's Well is quite clear and it is water from this well that feeds the Cypress Creek.
