Police Warn Against TikTok Trend of Digging Big Holes on Beaches
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2024
- Digging massive holes on the beach is a dangerous TikTok trend, the mayor of Sanibel Island told a local Florida TV station. “If you're digging to make a sandcastle or, in the case of this image, a place to toss your shovel in, please refill the hole and kindly take your things with you. It's a hazard to other beachgoers, especially our beautiful sea turtles,” Marco Island Police said. Inside Edition Digital has more.
Once again proof that TikTok brings out the stupidity of humanity in the worse possible way
How did the trend go MORE viral after the kid died doing this 🙄
Bruh you do not need tiktok for that to happen
Meh, let tiktok challenges keep taking out the idiots of the world. It'll be better for the gene pool.
@@xAlienWarfareGamingx nah none of this would have happened if tik tok didnt blow up
@@FF22FFA You’re lucky it might get banned on July 8th if I’m not mistaken
Edit:I know it’s not banned right now and every other comment since July 8th has said which is exactly why I said IT MIGHT.Basically the FCC told Google and Apple they had until that date to get rid of it but I’m not entirely sure of what is going on with them right now.
Also, didn’t a young guy (about 18 to 20 year old) die recently when the wall of the hole they were digging at the beach collapsed on him and his sister? Theirs wasn’t for TikTok though; it was just a family fun day at the beach but same danger ⚠️
It was a child about 10 I think.

When I was a kid my friends and I liked to dig holes in the Florida sand. It was easy. A good friend dug one a little too deep. When it collapsed he was dead before the fire dept could dig him out. I learned my lesson. I am now 77 and still remember his name. RIP Ronny.
😢
Rip
Rest in piece
How does a whole colapse? I’m 23 and me and a buddy of mine have a liking for digging holes at the beach and we’re getting bolder by the year. I’d rather learn this info from you rather then the hard way so yeah I’m all ears
@@Thekiko2501not sure if you read the other comments left on this video. There was another also written a year ago that said sand is unstable, so if the sand on the bottom moves, the rest falls over like an avalanche. Not only have people died inside the hole, but people digging to save the buried have also died. Really putting everyone in danger.
Can't believe people would destroy a beach and then just abandon the scene.
I love how they didn't mention how easy it is for these holes to collapse and trap people in them.
I hope that happens to my enemy 😈
Literally the #1 concern. But yes, random giant holes in the ground could be a problem for people on their phones not paying attention when they move through the world
Not if you make them shallow. People do this all the time.
well its even better when it collapsed on them so they die
Natural selection
They didn't even mention how the sand can collapse on top of you. That one guy died recently. Not the most dangerous TikTok challenge but still dangerous!!!
That was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw this story. 😥🙏🏾 And then not cover the holes back up!! 🤦🏾♀️
@@nashayscott9372 That's laughable... tik tokers cleaning up after themsrlves?!? Unheard of. It's all fun'n'games until someone breaks their neck.
who died the guy in the video?
That's the worst part about this. I think that guy who recently died is literally what sparked this "trend"
I can't even....
You can drown swimming . Crash driving. Electric fire in the night. Hit biking. choke eating Prolapsed rectum from shitting. Proceed with cation is common sense.
There was a time when I greatly advocated for social media because it was an easy way to disseminate information. Now, I'm really disgusted with the way it's being used for these attention whoring activities and the endless drive to outdo the last shenanigan.
Misinformation you mean 🤦♂️
This is so weird. I had no idea this was some sort of trend? Glad I wasn’t aware about this last month when I was mildly digging for seashells!
As a Floridian we often hear about kids or even adults dying because of holes on the beach caving in. It’s very hard to get someone out and because the sand is so small with each move it settles itself more. Just by you trying to breath, you pack more sand in around you. Every slight subtle move…
That’s a good horror movie plot 😣
Thank you I was waiting for them to explain the most dangerous part yet they skip it.
Ukraine is a corrupt dictatorship just like Russia.
Do they cave because the beach has been nourished and its hollow somewhere or does the sand cave in from the sides after the hole is too deep? My mind can’t picture it.
@@dezb8510 sand isn't known for structural integrity. Imagine how you make sand castle. You get some wet sand and start shaping it. When it starts drying little touch or vibration can collapse your entire castle.
Hole has contact with air, starts drying loses structural integrity and collapse when person digs or people walk around the hole.
Imagine being an "adult" but have to be told; like a child, to put things back in its place. And also to take your belongings back home with you.
I swear most "adults" on Tiktok have the mental age of a child. Actually, I take that back because it would be an insult to children.
If you put It that way it's even more frustrating
And to pick up the trash they leave
Imagine shutting the duck up and minding your business
who tf would fill in a hole after digging it though. it's going to go back to normal by nature anyway.
That guy sitting at the _bottom_ of his deep, narrow whole had me freaking out. If that thing would have collapsed in, he'd have had less than 2 minutes to be dug out before he suffocated. Guys, don't do what this idiot did; it is so insanely dangerous.
Plus, there's always the chance of delving too greedily, + too deep, & awakening something down there; shadow, & flame...
He deserves worse than this. These types of people don't deserve to live on this planet. They should leave immediately.
Not even a tiktok trend to dig holes. It's a tiktok trend to record the people who dig them for fun. People have been digging big holes on beaches since probably the beginning of time.
Decades ago, we were always told to fill in our holes that we dug on the beaches. I thought this was common sense. As a child, it probably wasn't because it was fun to dig holes and not have to be responsible for them but parents would tell their kids to fill them back up. Now people lack the brain to fill them as adults...
Well there is a resurgence of sensibility that will come about in this coming age. Many will perish but the ones who live will live to reproduce sensible caring beings.

In 1997, my older brother and I were digging a hole on the beach while visiting my grandparents in long island. He had fallen in the hole head first; I went to go get my mom by the shoreline and by the time we got back to him the sand had caved in on him...it was 6-8 minutes before we were able to get him out and he suffered an anoxic brain injury. I'm so thankful he's still with us today but please, take this warning into consideration...I know in hindsight it wasn't a good idea but we were young and didn't know better.

“Police warn against TikTok trend”
Yeah definitely not the first time i’ve heard that.
The other day when I went to the beach.. I was wondering why there were people digging holes every meter of the sand.
I agree with its danger and I hope they realize it for themselves. Some were sitting in them; the sand could shift and fill up again, potentially suffocating the person.
Its great that its being pointed out.
I almost died on a beach when I was younger because when I was walking in the water, there was a hole I didn’t see in the water and I accidentally walked in it and I started drowning. My cousin saw me struggling and pulled me onto the shore and saved my life.
On some beaches, holes in the sand underwater happen naturally. It's quite unsettling.
@@_Washing_Machine_ probably cant
Was this a man made hole in the water? Or a hole created naturally?
@@_Washing_Machine_ cringe but ok
I was at a kind of water park place I can't remember the name, when I was around 5-6 I was playing with my father shooting water guns at each other next to the pool and I slipped and fell into the pool and sunk to the bottom, I thought it was a good idea to take my inflatable arm wraps off before the water fight and thats why I sunk, thankfully my father jumped in to the pool and dragged me out before I drowned, I was absolutely terrified and crying my eyes out whenever I got out.
Never before in history have we had to tell people to fill in a hole because someone could get hurt or we could lose animals.... So we're pretty much doomed.
I, for one, welcome the mass Darwinism.

I am now convinced that TikTok is slowly breaking off pieces of your brain
A bunch of turtles: *falls in hole*
Turtle-eating mammals: "Thank you, hoomans!"
A message for all the kids and teens out there. The reason the video brings up the turtles is if the hole ends up matching a tiktok video and has baby or adult turtles trapped in it. You will end up with a sheriff at your door if your in state or a federal agent if your from another state. Risking the lives of endangered species you can face fines from $250,000 to $500,000 and face felony charges that include jail time.
I don't think you're going to get a 500K fine and a felony charge for digging a hole in the beach?
I don't take illiterate people seriously.
@@daykilling9242 it’s a year in jail and a 50,000 dollar fine and only if you actually kill the protected animal.
@@joshwalkowicz Baby turtles have a very short time span from the moment they hatch, to getting into the water, before they run out of energy (and cannot move anymore) and thus, die. Falling into a pit like in this video, is a death sentence for them 😞

What a beautiful message ❤️! I love the part "it's a hazard to other beachgoers, especially our beautiful sea turtles"!
People only have brains large enough to cope at a maximum with trendy animals. This trap would starve many animals.
The fact that the police even need to comment on such things, shows that there's a serious problem🤦♂️.
At this point, banning TikTok might just be in the best interest of public safety.
It won’t be banned we’re stuck in this world we can’t do it

A guy I went to elementary and middle school with died like this at 14. He and his friends were digging a huge hole and were jumping in it. He was the only one in it when a big wave came to the shore and buried him alive. It was pretty traumatizing. Everyone around tried to get him out, but it was impossible. When they found him his mouth and nose were filled with wet sand. This is no joke.

Next go dig holes at the red forest in Ukraine
Or both
Yeah this is why I do not ever ever download it nor touch it.
Or stupid
Besides the turtle, some of these people digging the holes may have no knowledge on the safety of trenches. In other words if not cautious enough or careful enough when digging over 5 feet deep, the sand can easily collapse over and before you know it someone can be unfortunate to end up buried under the sand and possibly turning out fatal. Digging 5 feet or deeper is not as simple as most might think. Educate yourself first in order to do such task the proper way.
Even 2-3 feet can be dangerous sand is tricky and quite heavy especially when wet.
And beach sand is softer in comparison to the sand in the lawns, yards or the jungles and forests
Hmmm I grew up digging these holes. Never once was there any significant cave in.
@@JustinCrediblename Well, if it didn't happen to you I guess it's never happened to anyone.
People who went to a public high school and took science up til grade 9 should have enough sense to realize this is dangerous. It doesn't take a college degree to understand basics.
I’m actually going on vacation to destin next week, it would be a bummer if I had to encounter holes around the beaches there.
Another proof that TikTok is destroying a generation of young people.
When I was 6 years old I watched my family try to rescue a boy who had been buried in a hole he dug... I will never forget when the life flight was landing and all the sand flying around and watching them leave only to find out about 10 minutes later that he died mid-flight because his lungs were filled with sand.. He was my age. Don't dig holes.

dig holes in a safe manner, digging holes in and of itself isn't inherently dangerous.

I never knew how dangerous this was until I got older. When I was a kid I used to dig holes at the beach with my brothers. (We filled the holes back in when we were leaving.) The holes were somewhat deep and a little big but not so much to the point we couldn't get out.
What was the point? Why is this entertaining? Am I missing something here?
@@automnejoy5308 it’s fun
@@vegeta2317 Guess we have different definitions of the word.
@@automnejoy5308 by digging these big holes as shallow as knee-deep, you can get out of the wind pretty well. Then you can make the funny "How's the weather up there?" joke to all your buddies not in the hole. Plus, the sand from deeper parts of the hole is almost like concrete, so it is perfect for building castles with (DISCLOSURE: the previous statement is mainly dependent on the type of sand at the beach. This statement is true for beaches with softer, fine sand, but will not work on coarse-sanded beaches.)
I used to dig these huge holes a lot, but I had much higher-quality shovels back then to make the digging easier.
Now, I just dig out smaller-diameter, slightly less-deep holes and make solid balls of sand with the wet sand from the bottom. Just as fun, and slightly less obtrusive to other beachgoers.
Same here. My brother and I did it all the time. It might have seemed big when we were little, but I doubt they were huge. We still had fun shoveling the dirt back in. People should have known not to leave holes that big left behind.
I was rolling when a tik tok ad pre rolled.
"It's a hazard to people" Pfffffft who cares?
"...and sea turtles." Pack it up boys.
This is such a dumb trend. It literally serves no purpose, it's not entertaining in any way to dig for hours, and it's dangerous to other beach goers or safety personnel who aren't expecting a huge hole to be there 🕳🏖🕳
Obviously you haven’t dug a huge hole before, but yes your point still stands.😂
this isnt the worst trend, I think that award goes to purposefully overdosing on benadryl

🤔 You'll never see a tiktok trend about planting trees, picking up trash, cleaning up streets, volunteering at shelters, getting good grades at school, helping around the house etc. If they have energy and time to fight massive holes at the beach then surely they have time and energy for what I just mentioned...🙄🙄
It's because those don't get lots of attention or not exciting unlike this hole trend.

It is not a "new and dangerous tiktok trend". It is an old and semi-dangerous beach thing that has been done since beaches existed. Live a little. "B b but scary holes on the beach, wahhhh." Open your eyes or use a flashlight like the rest of us have done since forever.

I'm glad they brought up that this can disturb endangered species. There's a beach at a state park near me with an endangered species of bird, and it has to be closed every year when the eggs hatch because otherwise idiots will go and mess with their nests.
A few people have since been caught trespassing during that time of year, thinking that the rule somehow doesn't apply to them and that they _uniquely_ deserve to have a whole beach to themselves (and have their kids dig holes everywhere in some cases, greatly affecting the birds).

I literally don’t care about the humans - if you’re stupid enough to dig a hole and follow tiktok trends, that’s on you -, but leave the turtles and other animals alone.
Agreed.
some people who didn't dig holes can still become victims tho.
This is legit dangerous, mostly in ways they for some reason don't even mention in this video. The walls of a hole like that can easily collapse around you and suffocate you to death. Growing up in australia, you learn this as standard beach safety.
If the tide comes in suddenly, that hole can easily be turned into quicksand and suck you under. You don't even have to be in the hole, just near enough to have the wave push you in. Water follows that path of least resistance.
I’m surprised they didn’t mentioned when a hole collapsed over someone and killed them
Yea, not even 2 month ago someone died because of this.
That's just good population control.
Imagine being on vacation just to do work and not finish 😂 idiocy at its finest😅
They failed to mention how many cases of people dying due to this there have been, I knew a guy who’s dad fell into a while in the beach at night and they found him the next day buried, not sure how but he was barely sticking out of the sand.
And I'm guessing everyone missed the recent incident where 2 kids were buried alive and one of them killed when their hole caved in on them. Crushed to death by tons of sand.
I'm guessing no one missed it because it was on this channel
Thats nature taking its course.
I had no clue it was a trend, as a kid my friends and I + her had always dug deep holes to get away from sun or a fun sitting area. The difference is you always fill them back up it’s dangerous and not digging to deep is something happens the sand can bury you alive…

@@warnertesla8297 Go say that to the families face buddy
We had dug a 5ft hole at Indiana dunes years back and my friend was sitting down in it when the whole thing collapsed. It nearly killed him but luckily for him he realized LAST second it was collapsing and stood up. It only buried his body and we managed to get him out rather fast.
A 5 gallon bucket of sand weights 67 pounds..something to think about 🤯
As a plumber who works on drain lines daily, this is extremely dangerous in sand. You need shoring below 4-5 feet.
I remember stepping in one of those holes when the tide was in and my leg went down up to my knee. I was so irritated from getting wet so suddenly and if I had been running instead of walking I could have broke something.
Everything I think is just normal child shenanigans turns into a tik tok trend
Didn't 2 kids get killed by digging holes in the beach when the hole collapsed?
Even if you're gonna fill it back up, you shouldn't do this in the first place. If it's deeper to the point it's above your head, stop. That can easily collapse on you and suffocate you, there's been cases of that happening, don't dig your own grave.
And nothing of value would be lost
Actually waist deep is just as dangerous sand is quite heavy especially when wet.
Same with filling the hole, since they dug the sand become loose and have air pocket, so when they fill it, it wont be 100 % fill and people who step on it literally step in their grave.
Sand can squeeze your stomach, so that you can't breathe either, although your mouth is outside.
As a firefighter I can without a doubt confirm that digging holes in sand is extremely dangerous. Digging holes in dirt is extremely dangerous and kills people constantly. Sand is much more unstable. Even if you only get buried chest level in sand you can die because every breath you try to take the sand will compress your chest and you will suffocate while your head is exposed. I've seen it. Also, family members and bystanders have died trying to dig people out of holes. A rule of thumb is never be in a hole that is deeper than it is wide and never be standing in a hole deeper than your chest if it is not shored up properly. But if you still feel the need to do so, just let everyone around you know that if that collapses on you that you knew the risks and don't want anyone else to die trying to save you
"Thinning the herd" also means burying them.
How exactly does one die trying to dig them out?
@@MrTrevortxeartxe did you not read when he said sand is very unstable? Most likely the sand beneath them collapses, and they fall into the deep hole leaving them unconscious and eventually killing them.
Fake news
As an EMT I tip my hat to that statement. Legit more then one experience at the beach with holes
