In this new 6-minute film, cave, adventure, and travel
photographer Ryan Deboodt takes
us on a breathtaking aerial tour of the world’s largest cave, Hang SonDoong, located in central Vietnam. Deboodt brought a drone and an
array of cameras to help capture the cave system, the largest chamber of which
is 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) long, 200 meters (660 ft) high and 150 meters (490 ft)
wide. Despite its enormity, the cave was only discovered in 1991 by a local
man, and it wasn’t even studied by scientists until about five years ago. One
of the most disorienting thing about watching Deboodt’s film was my brain not
comprehending the scale of what I was looking at. It’s only once you notice the
ant-like people walking through some of the shots that you realize just how
massive this place is.
