From the paranoid crypto millionaire tunnel barron:quote:The diggers urinated and defecated in a five-gallon bucket, the stench kept at bay with wiper fluid. When the bucket grew full, they attached it to a pulley and messaged Daniel, who winched it up and poured the contents into an upstairs toilet. When they got hungry, they sent requests for food, which Daniel dropped down the hole. There was a shower head, but it made mud of the floors, so they washed themselves with wet wipes. They never ascended into the house anywhere past the basement. Meanwhile they were posting on Reddit all day and livestrwming weird crypto stuff. It's a crazy tunnel article... Check it out!

Well I'm not leaving the house and going outside that's for sure, and I'm bored of the house. Going up seems hard, so might as well see what's down!

If that autistic tunnel lady wants to dig a tunnel I don't see why anyone should care. Let the woman dig.

mystes posted:if you talking about the tiktok person, she was presumably digging under her neighbors' property so even if you think that she should be able to dig a tunnel if she lived out in the middle of nowhere and wasn't endangering anyone else that doesn't really apply What evidence is there that she was digging under her neighbors property? Let her dig.

Bad things tend to happen when a building that was sitting on a shitload of dirt is now sitting on a giant empty space. Not to mention there's generally a shitload of utilities buried underground that could get damaged through reckless tunneling. It's one thing if she wants to bury herself alive, but don't gently caress up other people's lives with your mole fantasies.

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. i just checked up on how colin is doing, and he's starting into digging out a space for a underground garage with lift and the ending has him exposing two of the foundation blocks his home sits on, and he has a bloody heard from a chunk of poo poo falling on him while digging he's clearly a smart person but holy poo poo he's narrowly avoided certain death at least a few times

The only tunneling I do is the LAN kind. I don't do that hand style stuff. That's for people who want rough hands when they're 60.

At least we can identify the problem tunnelers which just dig a pit straight down to start. A public service reminder, if you decide you are in a position to get digging, dig sideways or at least start sideways and angle down. Digging a pit is just the worst way to start or end.

So dig sideways ya pitter! It's easier! Even worms don't default to digging straight down, unless they are core worms.

Thesaurus posted:Just watched the great escape btw. What a great secret tunneling movie A few years ago, a paleontologist friend (Who moonlights at a battlefield archaelogist) went back to the site of Stalag Luft III with a couple of the surviving ex-POWs and excavated the remains of the tunnels. They found several artifacts, including the Klim cans that they turned into ventilation ducts in the tunnels. https://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2007/sep/escape-tunnels-stalag-luft-iii-could-number-100

This guy seems to be making good progress with his tunnels https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSAxwccXpQc He is rather loopy like the other tunnelers, but he kind of knows what he's doing and mostly respects building codes

I don't see the appeal of tunnels. I'm more of a bunker fan. Just one big living room area with the ceiling at ground level.
