Utah Cave: TAG Definition of "Spelunker"

It sounds like the TAG definition of spelunker was based on those actual dudes:

"Spelunker - person who goes into caves without proper equipment or the desire to learn/practice proper safety/conservation techniques.
Example: When five people go spelunking, everyone has well-worn tennis shoes, two might have flashlights, one claims to know about the cave, and none in the group has a helmet. The word spelunker comes from the sound one makes when they slip, fall, and land in a pool of water - SPEEE-LUNK!
The difference between a Spelunker and a Caver is: Cavers rescue Spelunkers!"

Or sometimes only try.
