"sometimes when I'm down here... i listen to the water... and it sounds like people talking..."

He probably has MES, Musical Ear Syndrome. I got it, it's really not as scary or weird as it sounds. Basically our brains mistakenly interpret some white noises (running water is a big one) as faint music or voices. But it's not really a hallucination, because at the same time our brain is aware it isn't real and it's just coming from said noise. It can actually be quite pleasant, beaches often sound like a quiet symphony. Only occasionally will I hear voices and mistake it for my girlfriend or something before realizing it.

My brain starts playing the theme to Super Mario Bros when I stay up really late.

I could see what he means, and that happens to me sometimes too. I've thought background noise is all sorts of things. it is very quiet down there (we were I think at least a mile underground, having walked roughly horizontally for 5 hours). It's still to me just a classic amusing 'oh great' thing to tell someone in that situation.
