This short story by Junji Ito is about a fault that appears in Amigara mountain after an earthquake. The earthquake exposes countless human-shaped holes in the mountain which seem to have been made about a thousand years ago. People, intrigued by these silhouettes, gather at the site and that’s when things get creepy.

Nutty Putty Cave (John Jones)
The Nutty Putty Cave is southwest of Utah Lake and about 55 miles from Salt Lake City.
Spelunker John Jones visited the cave with friends and family in November of 2009 at around 8 p.m. just a few days before Thanksgiving. John was 26 at the time, married, had a 1 yr old daughter and was attending Medical School.
About an hour into the caving expedition, John decided to find the Nutty Putty Cave formation known as the Birth Canal, a tight passage that spelunkers must crawl through carefully if they dare .He found what he thought was the Birth Canal and inched his way into the narrow passage head first, moving forward using his hips, stomach, and fingers.
John had miscalculated his location and ended up stuck and had no room to turn around. He didn’t even have room to wriggle back out the way he’d come. His only option was to press forward.He tried to exhale the air in his chest so that he could fit through a space that was barely 10 inches across and 18 inches high, about the size of the opening of a clothes dryer. But when John inhaled again and his chest puffed back out, he got stuck for good 400 ft into the cave and 100ft below the Earth’s surface.
John’s brother eventually found him and went for help. It took more than an hour to get supplies and men down to help John. At this point John had already been trapped for ~4hrs. Over the next 24 hrs, 100s of rescuers worked to free John using ropes and a pulley system which ultimately failed. After 27 hrs of being stuck upside down, John died of a cardiac arrest. No one was able to retrieve John’s body and the cave has since been sealed off.

The answer is the feathers.
200 pounds of bricks is just a bunch of bricks, but if you try to carry 200 pounds of feathers, you also have to carry the weight of what you did to those poor birds.
