I see these guys take 80 minutes to get to the room at the end, then
only five mintues "exploring" it. These strokes ran line around the room
, whereas Exley just left it end on the rock in front. Pretty work. Then
they name it.

It takes them five minutes to "lay" 400 meters, but 20 minutes to go the
400 feet into the cave. 

The truth is that running the circuit they describe takes about 55
minutes - if you are really slow.
