Weight/BMI restriction for caving

___? · 2010-10-08 07:09:15

Hi, I was wondering what is the max weight or bmi for caving? Is fitness a big holding point too? I would love to get into caving but am not sure if I would be suitable.

There is no BMI requirements for caving. I have been caving with some fairly large people (Americans ). There are some very squeezy caves that the fuller figured person cannot go into. But you wouldn't be going in there initially anyway.
