All hand digging now complete as down to the bunker will be done from above and so will the car port, thank you all so much for supporting this project. Its not totally finished but feels like a milestone for sure. Get your Tunnel prints here, there nice n cheap in this expensive time.www.colinfurzeshop.com

This series just proves to me that Bruce and Alfred could have totally built the Bat Cave themselves.

The editing required to have the old lad is well worth it.

Collin's neighbour is the most talented barn yard animal imitator I've heard in ages. LOL

What a wonderfully crazy neighbour you have! He seems to be getting some 20 years younger when he is let down in your tunnel. 😆

Colin is the epitome of a child who never grew up but has all the means to live out dreams. And we love that.

This man is a genius

My favorite part of this video is Colin's attention to detail is every avenue of his life. He apologizes for the mocked up carboard house model not being to scale for him to explain his DeLorean car lift. This man is my spirit animal.

I still cannot believe he not only managed this but went through with it all the way... Dude is sealing his name in history as the MADDEST man to make something.

It's impressive that Colin's neighbor is somehow more chaotic than Colin I still can't get over the image of the cement mixer rolling up and Colin just being like "yep pour it down the hole in the ground don't ask questions"

This neighbor Is exactly the kind of guy you need at work, because he is lifting the mood. Love him!

We NEED more of Freddie, man is a legend

it'd be real spiffy if you had a cool wall in one of the finished room that was see through, like a plexiglass thing with a sturdy frame, so you could see the rocks surrounding ya, maybe you could even add lighting to frame it, who knows, either way it'll be a beautiful result, and great work so far, keep it up :)

I'm pretty sure that temporary tunnel end needs to be painted to look like the tunnel continues (the type of mural Wile E. Coyote uses to try to trick the Road Runner). Also: congrats on finishing and thanks for all the amazing entertainment you've brought to us along the way!

Started as a tunnel project, now Colin's planning a whole batcave! Insane stuff, Colin you legend! Living out all of our boyhood dreams

Construction and engineering wise this is the best DIY series on KZfaq! Simply amazing. Congrats Mr. Furze.

Can you do a video running through the cost of the entire project? To really get an in-depth understanding of how much work, money, and time you've put into this insane project?

This is likely the single most impressive feat of DIY. So many different disciplines of trade work utilized, so much planning and a perfect finish at the end. Stunning!

Longest and most interesting series on KZfaq. Colin you’ve outdone yourself congratulations on your secret tunnel

I'm a little late to commenting, but as far as the plan for the car lift... I like the idea of a hidden lift system, like a spy movie, something contained within the garage that you could then drive off of and into the space below the driveway. In my mind, this system also has a false garage floor that automatically goes into place when the lift is underground.

I'm so stoked to see you build that underground garage. I hope this project never ends!

Freddie needs to be in more videos he is hilarious 😂

No matter how stressful this past year or so has been, I've always found great comfort at the thought that somewhere out there, Colin Furze is digging a secret underground tunnel from his shed to his house. Thanks Colin!

Hi Colin. Long time viewer, first time commenter. I love how you progressed from wacky machines to massive engineering projects like this tunnel. My suggestion is to leave one of the tunnel ends open so the rock wall is visible and maybe cover the end with a thick glass panel or plexiglass. Would be cool to see the rock face in an alcove like that to remember how it all began. Also, the steel wall panels have perfect frames for mural paintings. Perhaps you could get your kids or neighbourhood kids to start painting these wall sections. A bit of color on those black walls would be great. Have a great day Colin! You are an awesome engineer!

You could have your DeLorean drive onto an oval shaped cog platform that rests on the lift and is turned around by another identical (reciprocate) cog beneath the surface. Alternatively, you could use a giant drawer slide along the wall of the space connected to the platform by a hinge, which could pivot the whole thing 180 degrees. You'd want the connection to break vertically, but not horizontally, so it can allow the lift to separate from the wall slide thingy, then engage once it's been lowered. Just a couple ideas.

One of Colin’s best lines at 11:00 “tear the carpet up, giggity”

You (In my opinion) really need a window with lighting behind, to 'show' the rock while in the Garage. Does not have to be large, but something for looking 'outside' I guess. Cause everyone needs a window in their Garage! I also think you should include a sump pump for emergency evacuation of water just in case. While you can still include it into your design for if a leak or flooding were to occur. Love what you have completed there. Just amazing!

this guy is making my childhood dreams true and i want one lol

This is the best series of vids i've seen on youtube for years, love love love the tunnel digging vids, very simple solution reverse on to the drive like i do every day lol

I love how you've gone from wolverine claws, flamethrower guitars, and mag boots to a full on luxury apocalypse bunker with spy car exit. This is amazing as is and you're just getting yourself going.

You should have pictures of every single one of your inventions/ videos framed on the walls of the tunnel, would be a great addition and almost turn the tunnel into a memory lane going from start to where you are now

I’m a builder, done quite a few foundation digs in my time but this, this is a monumental amount of work to do by hand 👍🏻

Around 6:20, you're right. Leftover buildings (and more specifically their foundations) create a barrier, which means that the moisture cannot go up nor down. This is actually really useful to find archaeological remains and ask permission for a dig.

He's like a 12-year-old who knows plumbing, welding, and has all the resources and skills he needs to bring his crazy ideas into reality. Definitely one of the more unique maker creators on YT for that reason.

We need a unedited version to learn some of the colorful vocabulary that Freddie can share with us!

Wow! Just came across your channel and literally binged all 10 videos in 24 hours!!!!! This an amazing feat! You made it all look so easy and effortless. But I'm sure there were plenty of bumps in the journey. Can you make a blooper video with all the problems you may have encountered? Thank you so much this is just awesome!!!!!

I will definitely watch more of this project but I have already benefited just watching you work on it. I was frustrated just a short time ago but now I am feeling motivated to be productive and not let obstacles get in my way.

I think it'd be cool to have a small section of the rock wall exposed behind glass all illuminated. It'd be a nice nod to show what kind of ground they had to remove.

The Car lift will be amazing to see! 🤘😎

Really massively impressed by this whole series! As far as the lift is concerned could you plausibly use a bearing on a scissor lift for the rotation similar to the Hulk buster bearings? I appreciate they are almost certainly mega mega expensive, so you maybe able to engineer something.

I would love a virtual reality or 3d walk through of the whole thing to get a sense of scale of the project! It's been a blast to follow!

I really want a uncut, uncensored version of Freddie's presence in the tunnel, he's just an absolute Legend😂

It’s crazy how dedicated he is to this

With the scissor lift instead of having the drive bit on the top raising up, perhaps it should slide making it less obstructive on the surface and easier for a horizontal shift rather than a vertical one. Also in the parking room under the ground you could have conveyor belts to move the parked vehical horizontally and rotate it away from the side and have the conveyor belts move it back to the original position.

For the Delorean part, what you can do is have the turntable above ground before the car goes down the scissor lift. That way, it will be facing the right way once underground.

When it is completed, you should get an Estate Agent to come round and value the property, and film them when you show the entrance to the tunnel!

If the room is large enough, the second car space could also be used for car repairs. For that matter, you could have a trench under the car parking spot, between the lift, again for maintenance and repairs. Whatever lift mechanism you install, just remember you’re going to want to be able to service it eventually.

I think your car lift system should come out of the ground when you want to drive into it or come out of it, and recess back into the ground, with an unassuming garden outdoor seating area on top (Like a Secret Entrance) that lifts up int the air. This way, it's not some big industrial looking garage thingy in front of your house. Also, maybe have some warning system/lights flash when you come out, so people stand clear, but make them also blend into some serene garden like setting (again, not industrial looking).

Es simplemente hermoso, una obra de arte 😍 felicidades por tu gran trabajo, la pasé genial viendo cómo construias el túnel y aprendí muchísimo con las explicaciones que dabas en los intermedios!

Wasn’t until I saw that pile of rock / dirt that I realized how much earth y’all had moved. Incredible job.

This guy is the absolute opposite of the trend of making youtube videos short and with the least amount of effort and i love it

I have thoroughly enjoyed each video and found them all so inspiring. I have a 2 acre plot to consider tunneling away. I do have an excavator and a large open area so can do it from above for that part. Under the driveway will need tunneling out. Thanks Colin for the great work you shared.

This build is absolutely incredible! I want one!

This project has been my absolute favorite on KZfaq by a mile. What a joy to watch.

I bet every boy has dreamed of building a tunnel in their backyard at some stage. Massive respect to Colin for turning that dream into reality.

For the garage, I think the best thing (not the most practical) to do would be to have a circular platform that raises and lowers. On surface level there would be a rectangular (so as to not make awkward shapes on the ground) platform that opens, much like escalator doors but horizontally, and beneath them would be the circular platform (raised). Then as the car is parked on the circular platform it starts to lower and when there is enough clearance the rectangular doors close. After that the circular platform starts to rotate underground (preferably before it reaches the bottom, but there probably will not be enough height unless the up and down motion is very slow) and voila! the car is in position.

One thing that I love about Collin is definitely his humour, love how he acts like a young kid while still being adult

Your neighbour is a well fitting addition to the Furze Mining Company! More of him please!

This tunnel malarky has got to be one of the most eagerly anticipated viewings ever to appear on youtube. You're a legendary geezer Colin Furze! 👍

What a great series. Amazing job done.

Colin you are barking mad..in a great way. So enjoyed your video .. your enthusiasm and energy is totally uplifting. If you can imagine it YOU can build it. Well done, brill.

This man is genius…not because he’s built a tunnel and bunker, but because he’s created a KZfaq channel which is so interesting to young people. Educating them while making it enjoyable! Absolutely astonishing

The only thing better than this video series is knowing that they will continue for YEARS given the scale of what you have planned, I can't wait!

Someone may have already recommended this but what about turning your car before it lowers into the underground garage it will probably have more room above to turn and will save using turning space underground

Un friggin believable. The work you put into this project is mind blowin'. It's really a thing of beauty and I can't wait until the underground garage project begins! Nice job!!!

I can barely believe it's been two years, feels like yesterday when the first shovel of dirt left the garage

Something I would love to see in phase 2: Those exposed rocks looks so cool. How about making a window with a fake cave? Add some rbg lights, some fake dinosaurs bones, etc. I'm sure it would look rly cool

I salute your enthusiasm, and unbridled joy at making things happen in glorious and fantastic ways! LOL! A true inspiration! Keep up the good works!

“Tear the carpet up, giggity.” You thought we wouldn’t catch that one?😂😂😂

I think we need more of Freddie, we definitely need an uncensored version with all the outtakes of Freddie on this project. I think it could be a video series in itself.

You could test your system for lowering your DMC into the ground by creating a smaller version of it next to your shed to raise and lower your lawn mower and even build in an additional rack to hold garden tools, weed eaters, etc, etc. and you ( if I am looking at your drawings correctly ) would be able to build an underground access to this lift right off the tunnel just by adding a door. This would also provide a larger lift system to get some of your heavier objects underground. I absolutely can not wait, but will patiently do so anyways for the videos to come! C'mon 12 Million Subs! Cheers Colin, you're the greatest!!!!

I am completely flabbergasted about the amount of skill you have, the completely mindboggling amount of work you have put into this, the perseverance and the vision. I cannot understand how you manage to do this almost by yourself. My favorite channel on KZfaq =)

Just watched part 1 to 10 again for the second time, enjoyed as much as the first. Absolutely brilliant tunnelling! What about an underground swimming pool??

I have no clue what the purpose of something like this is but the full grown child inside of me just absolutely finds this to be amazing!

“We started on this project 2 years ago” When he said that I had to pause and collect myself, feels like just a few months ago he posted the first tunnel video. The last two years have been the longest, quickest two years I can remember

It was a pleasure seeing all the developments, you are really an inspiration. I feel lazy af!!

this has been a fun one to follow. i imagine alot of us have dreamt of having a secret tunnel under our homes. the fact that youre levelling it up with an underground parking garage is wild.

Aw lads we all need neighbours like Freddie. Absolute legend!

Colin, I’m sure I speak for everyone here when I say… thank you. Thank you for making the tunnel. Thank you for showing us all how you’ve done it. Thank you for explaining everything so easily. And thank you for entertaining us along the way. I have enjoyed every minute and have been so excited each time a new episode came along. You are part of what makes KZfaq so great. Thank you and good luck with the next exciting please! I hope one day I can visit your exciting tunnel! 😊

Amazing work! Very enjoyable to watch you work and bring this from your mind into existence.

This is an insane series, congratulation for your incredible work Colin. I can't wait to see the car elevator 😮

I'd recommend you look at modern aircraft carriers and how their lifts work, since they essentially do exactly what you want to do with the car port. Older types load aircraft from the middle with a ratchet mechanisim, newer carriers go from the side with two arms running alongside the ship. As for rotating the car, you might be able to get away with a SMALL scissorlift in the middle of the main lift, that props the car up and turns it around, without having to turn the entire lift. (which is probably going to weigh several tons!)

On the last bit about the Delorean in the mine shaft, it would be amazing if you could keep that esthetic in the underground car park. Whether it is repurposing the removed rock as a facade against the metal plate, or if you could somehow freeze the natural rock in an epoxy resin.

What a great series this is Colin, you are a legend. So many possibilities for the above ground area not to forget ur mini golf idea, or a patio, pergola, citadel, shade housey morning tea type area or even a botanical garden highlight. I would suggest keeping any structures light & maybe using lifelike plastic plants if going this route because they will always look good, wont die (like the bunker area), weigh as much for lifting, or need water. Turning &/or moving for 2 car access would be a bit of a challenge for ya, but anything is do-able if you throw enough cash and commitment into it. You could consider making two independent lifts and rotators to accomplish this, or build a parking robot that can lift, move sideways, turn & lower for 1 or 2 cars, maybe you could drive onto a custom made tray with small indentations for the tyres to rest & position the vehicles for a robotic parking & turning device. Sounds like a lot of work, but probably not beyond ur scope. Cheers from Oz

I can’t wait to see the tunnel go all the way to the bunker and the underground car port is finished with the lift I’ve never been more interested in something on KZfaq as I am with this, this is my absolute dream house and bunker along with the tunnels if i could afford to buy all this and move in I’d definitely pack up and move to the UK in a heartbeat this is amazing keep these videos coming and thanks for sharing them

We need more Freddy in future videos. Hes awesome. It may take longer to edit videos due to his free speech approach to life. I would argue he brings a great deal of production value to your videos with his attitude, craftmanship and his comedic personality.

Honestly this is I think every lads dream to do and even as an adult it stays with you. Watching someone actually do it and it being just a normal bloke makes it so much more real. Can't wait to see the continuation of the project.

So a civil engineer here. A turn table at at the bottom makes the most sense for turning, however as you pointed out you can’t put it right up against the corner. A solution would be to have the turn table be a rectangle slightly larger than the car and have a rail type slide under the tyres so it can be moved easily from left to right. This will mean you’ll have hydraulic powered turn table with slots which engage and disengage most likely with a screw, so a mechanical system like a quick release for a vice. This will allow the turn table to turn and have the slots stay with the car and move, then reengage to the scissor lift. I would suggest the scissor lift have those slots engaged in some fashion again with the quick release system, I can see having another platform under the car which is independent of the turn table be what lifts the car up. This could be a hydraulic ramp from a garage, could be easier but I couldn’t say. The other thing is getting that close to the main road the highways department of the council will want to know and make an assessment so you don’t cause structural issues to the carriageway and foot way. For the mapping of where cables are etc ask your local council for stats for your house and road, it’ll be a small fee maybe 20 or so for the maps and this will allow you to see roughly where the cables are as well as who owns what land etc. i don’t expect a reply but if you do I am a real civil engineer for a local council and I’d be more than happy to give free advice because this is very cool so just message me and we can go from there

The neighbor is totally amazing, love to see him as a recurring member.

Colin does not get the recognition he deserves, he is literally the epitimy of what we all know as an inventor. Absolutely crack pot ideas, but makes them work. Absolute top bloke 👏

Totally pukka completed tunnel (phase 1), and I love the idea that it's just too much trouble to reverse your DeLorean... so build an underground turntable. That easy! Beeootiful!!

Probably most awesome series of projects video channel ever

If colin ever ends up selling his house, the buyers are gonna be in for a treat

I'd be interested to know what the actual floor area is of the tunnel.. you know, how many sq.ft. (or Sq.Meters) is it?

No matter how you decide to post it , as always and will be great content and viewing , love it Furz!

I'm no expert, but my advice on making your garage lift a reality whilst getting the full 360 rotation you are looking for would be to make the elevator a disc turntable, or at least have the mechanical lifting sections be disc shaped with wheels/or runners of some kind on the sides and bearings/freespinning joint on the bottom. get or make some spiraling circular metal guides (like the kind of guides garage doors use) spiraling 360 as it goes upwards on the inner of the elevator shaft and on the supports for the shaft. If you had a system like this it would allow you to turn your car 360 degrees without having to spend extra power/machine work spinning the platform, all you would have to worry about would be providing the power to push the lift up and down. Be it with hydraulics, pneumatics, or winches of some kind. The freespinning circular platform and the rollers spinning with the guides would turn the car 360 using only the energy pushed on it by the upwards/downwards movement. If this doesn't make sense, the best way I can describe it would be like the rifling on a gun, the spiraling metal guidelines in the elevator shaft moving the wheels along with the platform as pressure is applied by the lift, turning the turntable. Heck, if you line up your car right and give enough room for the car to turn before it fully makes it to the top, the entrance/exit could even be rectangular even if the lift itself is circular, as long as the car clears and lines up with the exit before fully popping out of the ground/going underground. Hopefully this comment reaches you, and if It does I hope any of it makes a lick of sense. lol

The neighbor (Freddy?) is absolute chaos added to this nutters project and I’m here for it.

Colin has done more work on this tunnel than I have on literally anything in the last 30 years.

Well done Colin have a great time using it!🎉

This series proves how much a single person can do. it literally just takes hard work and a ton of time
