Yes! This is exactly the kind of post I needed today. Let's bring back tunnelling.

No longer will I be scared of sinkholes, I will become the sinkhole maker

Guess this makes Colin Furze a hobby-tunneller too.

In 2015, a 10 metres (33 ft) tunnel was discovered in a Toronto park. After a few days of speculations in media, the use as a terrorist hideout being among them, young construction worker Elton McDonald came forward as its builder.[1] Asked for the purpose of his digging, he answered "Honestly, I loved it so much. I don't know why I loved it".[1]

Hobby tunnelers agree it's a great escape

In the 1960s, Irish civil engineer William Lyttle dug a wine cellar under his Hackney property. Having done so, he said that he had "found a taste for the thing" and continued digging for forty years.

Hate when that happens...
