That's some serious dedication to a task.

Yes, I’d say that’s right up there with the Protestant work ethic.

An Indian villager burrowed for 14 years with a hammer and chisel to cut a tunnel through a mountain Local engineers were long gone after routing a road around the edifice
and blasting a railway through the heart of the mountain.
The villager wept in sorrow.

If there were an EPA in India or had this been an American who did this near his property, he would be tossed into the hoosgow and the key tossed in the other direction.
Thank you, President Nixon.

If he did that here he'd have been shot dead by the feds after being found to have violated over a hundred land use and permitting policies, as well as doing himself by hand in 14 years, what a DOT managed project with union labor would have done in 12 years.
This man would make a fine contribution to our country.
I had a neighbor in the 70's who hand dug an enire basement to their home with a shovel and five gallon bucket. It took them four years of working four hours every evening when they came home from their day jobs. It was beautiful when they were done. It was a two level basement, adding about 60% more square feet to their home.

I would like to go to India just to shake that man’s hand.
The Indian Government should serious consider a medal of sorts for that man. If he’s not married currently, they need to find a bride for him.
Genes like that need to be preserved for the good of the entire human race.

He should charge a toll from his freeloading neighbors.
To: posterchild
No doubt it would have taken the govt 20 years and billions of rupees to do the same.
Local villagers, who previously had to trek around the mountain, are now using the tunnel to get to work.
The guy ought to set up a toll booth, charge a minimal sum, and join the Capitalist Class.

This man is exactly the kind of person America should welcome with open arms if they ever wanted to emigrate to the USA. Can-do people who contribute something tangible & beneficial to their communities/country.
