There are some pretty deep caves out there that much is true, but over 85% of discovered caves are above sea level! But not these ten, they are the deepest in the world and some are so deep they have only been explored with radar equipment as no human could survive them…

10 – Sima De La Cornisa Cave, Spain (Depth: 3,101)

This cave system is famous for its 28 Neanderthal skeletons that were found in one of the deepest parts of the cave. But how they got there without the equipment we have today is still one of the greatest mysteries of the world.
