After Ben McDaniel vanished inside a Florida cave, his family offered a $30,000 reward for the return of his body.
The reward reportedly led other divers to risk their lives searching for Ben. Then, in 2012, diver Larry Higginbotham died inside the same cave. Some divers believed he may have been searching for Ben.
Ben’s body has never been found.
