Eight people died in Jacob, one of the most dangerous diving sites in the world, and people continue to jump off the building.

A deep well named Jacob's Well in Texas, USA, is one of the most dangerous diving sites in the world and has claimed at least 8 lives.

Jacob’s deep well was actually a spring that gushes out all year round. The spring itself is only 30 feet long, but the caves in its slopes are 120 feet deep. The spring water is green and clear.

Because the cave is rugged and bottomless, it attracts divers from all over the world to explore. It is also one of the most dangerous diving sites in the world. However, for non-divers, this is a great place to have fun in the water.

However, according to the British Daily Mail report on December 9, there are still many adventurers eager to try. Amateur photographer Carl Griffin, 56, captured the brave souls jumping into the natural hot springs and diving into a deep well.

In his opinion, for people who are not keen on diving, this is just a natural hot spring that can be enjoyed to the fullest.

The "Jacob's" Well is actually a permanently erupting spring with crystal clear water. When the two boys jumped into the water, they were only one meter away from the spring.

Then, I saw the boys continuing to dive into a huge bottomless pit. This is the outlet of the spring, about 4 meters wide and 10 meters deep. If you continue diving below the spring, you will come to one of the largest underwater caves in Texas, reaching a depth of 40 meters.

At least eight divers have died here in the past few years. Although deep bottomless pits are dangerous, this does not reduce divers' enthusiasm for exploration, and the authorities' attempts to prevent divers from entering deep caves are of no avail.
