From the original article:
The tunnel was about 23 feet long and 2.5 meters tall and was lit by an electric generator. The walls and ceilings had been reinforced and tools had been left inside.
Wonder if they tried waiting to see who showed up to work in the tunnel?
I don’t know where that extra 2 came from. Certainly was not on the piece I pasted. Hmm.
Basically, it’s a fair amount of dirt removed. Maybe these guys took it one bucket at a time, but I doubt it. So who was parking a van near this spot every day for several weeks? That might be the logical question to ask.
