Today the adventurer Dan Robson, years, of São Bernardo do Campo it collects feats as the one of having traveled to foot the whole Brazilian coast - from the Stream of Chuí, in Rio alone Great South until Oiapoque, in the boundary of Amapá with French Guiana - and the one of having inside after 61 days of a cave, experience that surrendered him/her the South American record in permanence in caves, until then belonging to a group of Brazilians that was 21 days in a grotto, in 1986, " as I traveled from Chuí to Oiapoque to foot I had knowledge of my physical limit, but was not sure that would get to be two months in a cave. I noticed that my psychological one is stronger than I imagined ", Dan Robson said - that for three times, he/she thought about giving the points during crises of momentary depression: " Woke up crying without reason any, with an agony sensation, but soon it passed ".
The chosen place for Indiana Jones tupiniquim was the cave of Alambari of Top, belonging to Petar, in Iporanga (SP). The visitation is prohibited at the cave, and the victuals were given to the adventurer through a Tyrolese, so that he didn't have contact with other you be besides the bats and insects that inhabit the grotto, " in less than one week, I lost the notion of the time completely, So much that, in the day in that I was retired of the cave, they had me dictates that they still lacked ten days to complete the 61 days, and I believed,"
Besides the company of bats, Dan Robson arrived to be attacked by an otter to the edge of the river that goes by the interior of the grotto. With the fright, he lost the flashlight that was in your head and it was to the dark " Paras totally to find the hut again, I had to catch sand of the ground and to play for all the sides until hearing the noise of the grains beating in the canvas ".
Before beginning the taskwork, Dan Robson he/she had at least entered in a cave. " After I created the project, I visited five. A thing that called me attention was the insects. They are white, fragile, blind ".
Many of them only eat once a month. They are the bats that bring the food for them, because the feces of the bats create mushrooms that serve as food for the insects ".
