During Thanksgiving in 2009, The Jones family suffered one of the most devastating losses imaginable. In the Nutty Putty cave, John Jones became trapped in a tight squeeze that turned out to be a dead end. 27 hours of intense rescue effort ended in tragedy.<br /><br />The information presented in this video is from original documents and first-hand accounts. Where there are slight conflicts in information, I presented the most substantiated version with emphasis on those who were directly in the cave as most accurate. <br /><br />Sources include:<br />The ACA incident report from National Speleological Society, Andy Armstrong report (rescuer) with Dave Shurtz’ (rescuer) account, family letter from John’s in-laws, Lindsay Whitehurst article in the Salt Lake Tribune, Michael Leavitt (cave access manager), and Josh Jones statements.<br />.<br />..<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />#realstory #history #usa
