A few years ago, I took a tour of this underground cavern in Northern California. About 50 stories (this may be incorrect) underground with absolutely no natural light coming in.

The tour guide took us to the deepest part, turned of all the lights and told us that this was what being in absolute darkness was like. The tour guide also told us to wave our hands in front of our faces. I thought I saw my own hand in front of me and before I had a chance to comment about that, the tour guide mentioned how if you think you see your hand, you're not.

Glad I came across this. Really helps shine some light (I'm sorry) on what I saw.
