Good story and a brave man.
This must be a misprint: "Richard Stanton, of Allesley Old Road, reached depths of more than 800 metres in a courageous effort...". Must have meant he went 800' metres into the cave (horizontally).

Too bad this did not happen "We had expected to find him alive because it was believed there would be air pockets in the cave..."
