Re: Caving tv reality show

And I believe you....however, the producers may not think there is a market for promoting good caving practices to the general public and/or have different ideas to embellish the excitement level. I could see perhaps a one time show for those purposes but it doesn't seem likely for a continuing series, particularly for a "reality" show that typically consists of interpersonal conflict in whatever setting.
Now if it's done by Natl. Geo, Nature, etc. that would be one thing but if it's your typical for profit company, then they've got a lot of advertising to sell.
If it appears that is the case, then I encourage you to keep looking and avoid the contrived reality format. I would suggest telling the tales of one or more epic cave discoveries and explorations in a series with education in conservation added in. Plenty of them with real life excitement, adventure, personal stories, etc. to be told.
