The Super Mario warp pipe really made my day! 😁

I'm living for an unauthorized CHUD sequel!

My bro really went from hacking satellites to building speakeasies like it's the 1920's lmfao.

That all you can eat sign gets me every time I see it I'd like to see it in person

You have a sandbar grotto this is awesome! So glad I found this channel!

You mentioned the sand floor eroding faster than the cement floor, which got me thinking: how does the rest of the tunnel system deal with erosion long term? My first thought was to just not worry about it because it's all the same material, but then some paths will be traveled more than others, and foot/wagon traffic will tend to be concentrated in certain areas (i.e. nobody walks placing their feet right up against the walls).

Same here on the Super Mario warp theme. That made me laugh :)

That's going to be one nice oubliette!

If that LED strip is of the sectiond "cut here to shorten" type it might be a simple fix with a soldering iron. With that many drills down due to chopped cable I would consider making the cable on the drill really short (5 - 10cm) and using an extension cord for the long part. That way you would only be down a cord and not an entire drill. That or replace the cord part on the drill with a C13 Male connector (Thats the Input connector for a PC PSU) and use PC or Monitor Power cables. They tend to be quite cheap to free depending on who you know

man I am so glad I found your channel! keep it up, I love your videos

Maybe you could tie a small loop in the wire then have a very long and stretchy bungee cord attached, to keep the power cable up and clear of the chisel

Love it! You mention the high humidity, do you notice any visible water in the cave (running down the walls / drips from the ceiling) when it rains?

That RGB has probably doubled your camera's filming framerate. Everyone knows rgb boosts performance!

Love your humor

Love this idea

The sandstone reminds me of the bluffs along the Mississippi River south of the Twin Cities, Minnesota

You need a big auger like they use to drill holes for ice fishing

Immediately subscribed!

Way cool manhole secret hole cover thing!. I think you need an ice auger conversion for digging down except that hard layer of course. Also couldn't you put the cords on a spring reel so they would maintain some tension and keep them out of the bits way? Even if you just had an alligator sleeve & a spring you could keep adjusting it down cuz you don't progress that fast.

concrete doesn't actually dry, it sets. it's a chemical reaction where the water becomes part of the solid material

Definitely read up on / watch a video on “Confined Spaces” if you haven’t already. I haven’t taken the classes for that yet, just my OSHA-30, but legit B e C a r e f u l Re the horrible, but also funny in a tragic way, “USCSB” (usa’s chemical safety board, basically CSI but for refinery/factory explosions/incidents) KZfaq channel too. Even reasonable people can die in odd environments like these. Otherwise AWESOME video, and between your project, Cody’s Lab and ColinFurze i am J e l o u s, and keep up the great work!

this is the coolest thing in the world

That is very awesome!!!!!

Weight the cable and have it slung over your shoulder. Will keep it from dangling around down there.

Buy some flexible conduit to run your power cables through.

i need to keep reminding myself that you aren't gonna die in this video because you had to have been alive to edit and upload...

Wow that’s so dang cool!!! I’m excited watching this video hahaha

think get some day glow orange or yellow tape and tape up the cable so you can see it :P

looks good😎😎

Nice!

How do you accomplish ventilation?

7:58 That harder sandstone has a lot of Iron Oxide in it, that's going to be really good sandstone, no cave-ins. 9:45 Super Mario Bros. 😂👍

Throwing slaked lime all over everything to harden it, when each part is completed, starting to look like a good idea yet?

I'm so glad to see that this channel is still active!

I beg you, no i DEMAND dwarf joke/meme in next digging video.

I've always wondered what your relation is to this cave system? How do you pay for all this? Is this your day job? There's no way this could be done as a side project with a full time job lol.

you can make a secret toilet and noone is going to disturb you there :)

Seeecreet tunnel

For now it's a floor wine cellar.

8:25 Mate I think you found hard sandstone Or is it quartz because of the sparks

You’re funny :)

What about co2 accumulating down there under the manhole? You seem you know what you do but heavy breathing down there all day must give you a headache

bro will definitely survive nuclear apocalypse

You need a Moe-lookalike tending the Sandbar to ask if this story is going anywhere. The Great Humungus is just saying.

Might be a opportune time to video a segment where you lower a basket of lotion down into the hole....

SANDLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also great video! also! idea! what about a water wheel for power?

*is that all your property and who the heck dug those shafts*

Why doesn’t it flood?

Hahahaha they’ll never find it now!!!

Perfect place to hide a body

Why didn't you dig the hole in the first place, and then installed the manhole? I guess you can still remove the manhole, continue digging with a little bit more digg-nity, and then installing it back.

wonder what rhe radiation protection is like in there.

How much of this is OSHA approved?😂

10:35 "Are you ready to be my girlfriend yet?"

This one raises more questions than usual. For instance....at no point did I see any explanation as to WHY you were doing this. To hide? Nobody is looking for you 100 feet underground in rural Wisconsin. To be cool? Gabe, my young friend, you topped out some kind of algorithmic cool scale long ago. I do need to get out to Sandland again soon. Let me know when you are heading out and wanting help. The Robots take over in January but December is not bad. BTW, I have seen evidence for how brewery cave builders excavated vent holes, a somewhat similar concept. It looks to me as if they basically used something like an ice auger. Perhaps this is another thing you might try...... Oh....and your video montage of effects should have had deep red glowing from underneath. Magma or Satan, your choice. TW

DAM WHERE IS THIS? WEST VIRGINIA? AND I KNOW UR SINGLE
