It was literally just two guys digging a tunnel for fun but because everyone is so fucking paranoid these days it blew into a national news story being covered by everyone, plus all the hard work they put into it was destroyed.
Who could blame them. Tunnel digging is fun.
Probably just making a place to get shitfaced. :v:
I was thinking it was something like that. It's irritating to know their stuff was torn down without anyone ever checking into why it was their. The tunnel itself wasn't going anywhere, or doing anything, so why destroy it without finding out what was up? But that's just hindsight talking. The police are on such high-alert all the time that a suspicious-ish hole was just too bizarre to leave sitting.
oh, sure, "personal reasons." And then, in the middle of the Canadian Open, with hundreds of millions watching worldwide, [img]http://i.imgur.com/HacNVgY.png[/img] [i]I AM ALWAYS BENEATH YOU, BUT NOTHING IS BENEATH ME![/i]
I kinda wanna dig out a reinforced underground chamber now. For fun.

They ignored every other possibility outside drugs and jumped the gun and this as what they get for it.
-okay, no digging holes-

Surprised the neighbors never investigated the small tunnel I made in the woods. Pretty sure they may eventually, since I'm about to reinforce it.

[QUOTE=Megadave;47246100]I swear that ending pissed me off so much. Create such an awesome layout for a sequel yet never make a sequel.[/QUOTE] But they are making a sequel. But to be on topic, what a manly thing to do. I hope once I graduate and have a career I can still have fun like them.

[QUOTE=Jodern;47245130]Who could blame them. Tunnel digging is fun.[/QUOTE] Agreed. Tried to dig myself a secret underground base in my parents' front yard when I was a kid. Difficult work though, all I ended up making was a deep pond.
I remember when my brothers and I got together with a couple of friends in their backyard (Dry and Desolate Southern California) and we dug a taliban-esque tunnel system. :v: It was probably extremely dangerous and capable of caving in, but hell we were kids. I can completely understand just wanting a bitchin tunnel to chill and eat snacks.
"Personal reasons". Dude, it's a sex tunnel. DUH.

I can't think of a reason why anyone would dig a tunnel just because.
I bet they were pretty bummed when the police filled in their first attempt at finding mole people. I mean really - 'personal reasons'?
