5/30/2025I hope this isn't one of those cancerous brainrot "I built a home in the jungle!" videos, which I only learned were a plague when another channel highlighted the abandoned & environmentally destructive refuse those cancers left behind.

5/28/2025I am fortunate enough to have experienced this hold-digging-drive to its fullest as a teenager. I spent weeks with a small team of neighborhood friends digging a hole deep enough for five of us to comfortably stand in without our heads reaching the surface. Another time, we dug a shallower hole we could squat inside of but tunneled two additional "rooms" complete with "furnishings." This video brought back memories of our own logistics systems to excavate and store all of the dirt. We capped the hole with wooden studs and laid plywood over top, forming an underground "fort," complete with periscope. I covered the plywood with dirt, and my construction was solid enough that you almoooooost wouldn't know there was a hole underneath. It was easily the most fun highlight of my adolescence. It was also probably the most dangerous activity of my life; one of the holes tunneled under a shed-like structure which could have easily caused a collapse and killed us. Regardless, even now in my 30s I want to build another hole fort someday.
