Sanctum picture

Factual error: Josh abseils forwards into the cave and in the next shot is seen coming alongside Victoria, in the standard seated abseil position. This would not have been possible, due to the design of his harness, without moving his abseil device from his back to his front. This would have involved him removing the device completely and then re-attaching it to the front of his harness which would be impossible during descent. (00:15:20)
