Like I'll have buddies that run off to the corners of the world to explore or hole making goblins but I'm always compelled to build paths, roads, signage, parks and generally making areas look pretty I like to connect all the human made structures and poi with tunnel access

As some Chinese philosopher once said, just dig a hole that's deep enough and everybody will want to jump into it.

lol @ the wall blowout near the end, I'm sure that arch is going to hold up great The last paragraph of the article sums up my feelings on the whole thing: quote:While Dix strongly discourages hobby tunneling, he said that people should at least first look up their area’s codes of practice for mine work, which covers safety basics like structural support, ventilation and emergency evacuation. And when he’s asked for an activity prospective diggers might try as an alternative, Dix can only compare it to one thing: shooting heroin.

IIRC there's at least one video about how her air ventilation circulation system short circuited on account of how loose electrical wires and water aren't supposed to go together, and she didn't realize for a while and started getting CO2 headaches or something, and she's just like "whoopsie, can't let that happen again," and then she shows the insane extension cord/power bar solution to ensuring there's always another outlet dangling precariously over another pool of water that's attached to a hunk of clay that looks like it's about to slough off of the wall like this is somehow meant to assuage our concerns. I haven't seen another person wade so far into "when people stop taking their medication" territory since probably ChrisChan.

This is like, when people stop taking their medication territory.  NO.For real none of this is legal you can't just dig a tunnel under your house, I'm not sure how they don't get in trouble posting the videos. You'd think well maybe they live in the middle of nowhere but no they show a neighborhood right there. It's not like it only affects them either that could have long term effects on sloughing in the area, no? Hollismason posted:Hobby Tunneling : It makes you feel good, and then all of a sudden you die I remember going to a camp as a kid in the winter and there were these giant 15-20 ft tall snow drifts around the lot. The other kids and myself dug tunnels all through those things while other kids are stomping around on top of the pile. Kids are stupid as poo poo. So of course it partially collapsed at some point with me inside it, so that was horrifying. Grey Cat fucked around with this message at 21:16 on Feb 4, 2024 |

You know, you and I can say it's not practical, (and it isn't), but then Colin Furze releases like five videos a few weeks apart from each other showing how easy it looks to basically double the square footage of your house without anyone even knowing about it, and I just question at what point in my life did I diverge from a path that would have seen me able to accomplish what he did, and do it all by himself, and have it look like a million bucks, y'know? Because in my heart of hearts I know that if I started right now on the exact same thing, I'd be on par with engineer lady for how psychotically undiagnosed schizophrenic or counter to the Geneva Convention my attempt would be.

Watching the Great Escape did make me want to dig a stealth escape tunnel, with a little railroad track, from my house to like, the alley or something. Maybe you lift up some disguised floorboards to enter? I also fantasized as a kid about my best friends moving next door and then creating a tunnel complex /underground clubhouse

There's no way that deciding to dig a tunnel to no specific place in your basement isn't a sign that something inside you has finally snapped.
