A real story🙂
It seems like you're referencing the tragic story of John Edward Jones, who became trapped in the Nutty Putty Cave in Utah. Here's a brief overview of the event:

In 2009, John Edward Jones, a 26-year-old medical student, went exploring the Nutty Putty Cave, a popular but extremely tight cave system in Utah. While navigating through one of the narrowest parts of the cave, known as "the birth canal," he became stuck headfirst. Rescuers worked tirelessly for over 24 hours to free him, but due to the difficulty of the cave's layout and the nature of his entrapment, they were ultimately unsuccessful.

Tragically, John passed away, and due to the risks involved in retrieving his body, the cave was sealed permanently with his remains inside. Nutty Putty Cave has remained closed since then, serving as both a memorial and a reminder of the dangers of cave exploration.

If you were referring to something else, feel free to clarify!
