This should be a popular tourist attraction if they can make sure it's safe down there.
Amateur explorers have discovered a network of 15,000-year-old caves underneath a Canadian city.
The passageway, which is at least 200 metres long (660ft), was formed during the last ice age underneath what is now the city of Montreal.
The "once in a lifetime" October find by Luc Le Blanc and Daniel Caron was the result of years of trial and error.
Connected to the Saint-Léonard Cavern, the cave network is six metres deep and parts must be traversed by boat.
