You guys missed one of the funniest parts of the NY Tunnel. Some guy on the twit months ago was saying that heard people speaking Yiddish underneath his 1st floor apartment, and that he wasn't going crazy.
yes, he then updated his tweet with "some of you owe me an apology"..
so funny in hindsight.
poor guy
That seems to have been a hoax though. The actual tweet doesn't exist, he only had a screenshot of him tweeting that months earlier. And he also had tweeted some not so nice things about Jews before
“I just want a boring year”
Monkey paw uncurls one finger
Probably the middle one...
Literally boring holes and tunnels in the earth
Boring Company perks up... need another tunnel?
10/10 best comment I've read this week❤
Nice
15:01 "Holes are fun too, but they're not tunnels."
That has to be the quote of the year so far.
how hard did you guys have to resist calling it 'year of the hole'
That feels like the sort of thing that's just bound to summon Courtney Love
Well played, both of you.
The massive, gaping hole.
A hole so deep. Legend has it that you can reach the other side of the earth 🌎
This hole,this hole is for me!
-A reference to a horror manga
I think the joke tweets about the guy hearing Yiddish under his floor without a basement was the best jokes about the whole thing. The idea of someone going to any figure of authority about secret Jewish tunnels in New York would just get the biggest side eye response and big 'OK, thanks for that information'
It's a real 'boy who cried Jew' scenario.
Big facts, if you ain't Abrahamic. It's free real estate knowing the cuckold leftist bottoming out and going to their last limp note left being the cuckold juxtaposition of bbcdotcom rights for ignoring a system that brang them their to ignore the premise that is the same and they complain when they get off on it 😂😂.
Cuckold bottomed out Americas, it's something else altogether.
And I feel the bad for the natives but it's free real estate on them all over again with using other dynamics of oppression to deny the real reason why the Christians are acting up 😂 😂. Or cuckold leftist ain't supporting racist when called out for supporting a Spanish caste system and act like it isn't racist like at least stfu if you going to teach just to bottom out and speak from the chin because it clearly isn't theirs they talking from 😂.
Again, cuckold America's 😂 we all know they sell their own kids and shit just to get to them 😂
@@jazzy4830😂😂😂
When I was younger, my favourite pastime in the winter was digging snow tunnels under the large piles of snow that were cleared from the road or through snow drifts. I was also claustrophobic. You would think I would know better, but time and time again, I would dig snow tunnels and shove myself into small tight spaces under several feet of snow. Somehow never had any collapse on me, which I think is just pure luck.
Man this is a great childhood memory of mine as well, so much fun especially when the plows would have giant hills to tunnel in
Omg yes we turned those massive piles of snow into forts and everything, then we waged war against the neighbourhood kids who had their own fort in the pile accross the street😂
Hell yeah. I remember one year we had record snowfall here in Alaska, like 6 feet over a day or two. I started at the door of our house and dug way out into the yard. It was wild.
The "closed space" fantasy seems to satisfy something deep in the human psyche.
Quite common.
And, My opinion, linked with the trauma of death.
(note: "Der Traum" is "dream" in German. Interesting parallel.)
@@waltdill927 ohh neat. Your comment made me think about "terminal burrowing" where people near death with hypothermia will sometimes get naked and try to dig under stuff. I've heard of it happening with alcoholics in their homes, like their body is found under a pile of clothes in a closet.
Those sort of instincts come from our basal ganglia or reptile brain.
15:05 When Ricky says: "Thankfully we do have a third tunnel sorry, Mr President" and they both react automatically. That's perfect comedy timing and great chemistry for me
Ricky’s Mike Lindell impersonation never fails to crack me up
I wish Ricky would've said
"I did everything right but i still died in my tunnel!"
You can tell that ricky recognized having problematic drinking as opposed to alcoholism because when he decided to stop drinking he actually did it.
I am also on the same wagon as you, so im just noting I appreciate your takes and just being open about not drinking and normalizing that decision.
edit: just acknowledging i got the name wrong at first lol, ive corrected it above
You mean Ricky?
I am the worst with names, ill forget your name you told me 30 seconds after hearing it. why you gotta expose me like that@@randomname4726 . I googled elliot and a picture of ricky came up so I at least made 10 seconds worth of effort
Big ups to anyone who realizes their drinking is a problem and does something about it.
Sincerely, the one dude who doesn't drink in New Orleans
Agreed, the social pressure to drink in some circles is immense and that's a big problem. Props to anyone who takes the high road
People in full suits doing chaos is always funny. Idk why people can't just be normal about it
It's true...congress the Senate a synagogue or wall st....dudes in suits during a circus is always a popcorn worthy moment lol
Being racist never can be normal
Underground tunnel ain’t normal chief
Why should they be normal about it ?
Who's stains are on that baby mattress? Doesn't sound fun to me
"I trust maybe five to ten people to make fun of this properly." is fucking right, which is why I was excited for this video.
I haven’t watched any other videos on the tunnel because of that reason 😂😂
Brazilian here
A little context about it: Minas Gerais ( translate as General Mines) has a very very long history about gold and metal in the area. Just for an idea, the entire city of Lisbon was rebuild after an earthquake and 65 feet tall tsunami with gold tax from Brazil for decades. This is just to give an example of proportion.
I checked the Brazilian news and said " the tunnel is equivalent to a 13 floor building, is deeper as the metro line. The man nickname the place as a Bat-cave and took an year long"
About the foundation, Minas Gerais specific has a clay soil, or Brazil dirty as geogessr referring, so is really stable. Moreover the houses in Brazil are made with bricks, different than north America where is more drywall and wood base. It's close to a small fortress, that's why you see weird architecture 😂
Besides than Minas Gerais is a very catholic state, and the strangeness didn't finish there.
Because many slave people died in the mines, many people still believe many places are haunted so is not far fetched to see people doing weird things because believe is haunted in some degree ( As an example, walking to Aparecida do norte is 300km walked people usually do to pay their vows)
Minas gerais also have other touristic attractions like ET of Varginha or Ladeira do amendoim where your cars go uphill.
Just a reminder Minas gerais is almost the size of Texas, so 💩 happens there all the time.
I hope this help to understand how Brazilian this news is 😂
Good geology; thanks!
The rebuild of Lisbon was a big thing - from what I recall they had some pretty stringent requirements for cross-bracing the timber frames so buildings would stand up to the next earthquake. Am I right in that?
@@williamchamberlain2263 As long I know, it was a absurdly huge catastrophe.
As I read recently, the earthquake was in a catholic celebration day, and the earthquake was almost 9 on scale (here in Japan we had this year 7.4 on scale and 11.000 houses were destroyed in Ishikawa, 9 is 100x bigger).
But the caveat is in Lisbon alongside of earthquake, a tsunami 20 mts (65 feet) happened not long time after, so you can imagine many people with candles, tried to escape of an earthquake and fire and when they went close to the beach to grab water to combat the flames, they confront a ginormous tsunami.
Just to imagine is terrifying.
Now then, after that Portugal raise the tax in Minas Gerais, if I call right my history classes,was 1/3 of the gold extracted in Brazil was just tax to Portugal for decades. Not by saying Portugal paid most of there debt with other European nations with our gold too; means most of the gold in Europe is ours 😂. We gladly accept back 😄
This also became a reason for two different revolution and culminating with independence of Brazil.
About structure: Same of the structural thing happened in Japan more recently.
Here in Japan they also passed a law the houses after 1981 should fall over instead collapse floor by floor. So if you take a footage of Ishikawa this year you can see clearly which buildings are before and after 80's
Anyways I'm sorry if I'm not that good in history because my area is numbers, so may I forget some details.
Good reading.
Yes, the entire history of prosperity and scientific "progress" in the West is fueled principally by the stolen indigenous wealth of the "equatorial" world. History, itself, is righting the balance.@@TripImmigration
@@waltdill927 precisely that. Many north American and European have an idea we are underdeveloped because we are "less smart", when in reality is because they stole from us for many centuries.
Twitter really messed up what was objectively a really fun story with the Tunnel story. Every video from the actual event is comedy gold, but it was just hijacked by some of the most horrid people out there.
So was Palestine
Exactlty. The trolls are why we can't have nice things anymore
At least I never filled in a tunnel.
@@TheLegPumpkinwhat are you talking about?
@@Selfinflictedhummusrocketwhat are you talking about?
That My Pillow Guy accent genuinely brought me to tears.
It's a hard accent to master too
I love Seth Myers' impression of Lindell.
Can’t believe we live in a country where advertising costs money and you can be ‘silenced’ just for not paying your bills. Poor Mike 🙄
where commercial broadcasting amounts to political reality spinning in the bad times ... or mindless consumption propaganda in the good times.
for private profit.
at the public's expense.
as a standard model.
forever.
and that's the News.
We have a funny conservative spin in Poland right now, which is kinda oposite but the same as Lindel's case, because a private right wing TV station (supported and owned in part by the largest conservative party) is having companies that bought ad time pulling out because of antisemitic and anti-immigrant remarks of a couple of the presenters. The companies that are forced to still have their ads displayed (because of ongoing contracts) are using these time slots for anti-hate speech ads. And right now that TV station and that party are crying about suppressing freedom of speech, politicizing news (like u fokin wot m8) and boycoting the companies that pulled the ads, such as Ikea and so on. They paint themselves as saviours of democracy. It's so funny and so ridiculous.
so I've worked as a soil tester/scientist;
that 40m tunnel is actually crazy.
that Brazilian dude is both out of his god damn mind and actually smart as hell.
The idea of tunneling 40m VERTICAL is crazy on its own, but he did it with precision and and managed to not collapse an entire block. Holy shit. That's absolute madness. Anyone that thinks that's a cakewalk, try digging a straight hole more than 5 m down, its hard as fuck and often involves a bunch of testing to make sure that shit doesn't collapse immediately. Ask any structural engineer. this 70 year old dude was either a genius, lucky as hell or absolutely insane... excavating something completely vertical is so difficult and he did it casually in his motherfuckin kitchen... Bro..
In response to your ice rant there is a theatre in Detroit called the Majestic Theatre, which opened in 1915, and part of it's bling was that it had "air conditioning". This meant that there was a basement underneath there large blocks of ice was dumped then large fans in the ceiling would draw the cold air up into the theatre.
How come no one told me we were doing tunnels last year? Now I'm waaay behind
My grandfather told me about the ice harvest which was common in 1930's Silesia (Germany back then, Poland nowadays) where he grew up.
Big chunks of ice got draged to a nearby basement of sorts where it got stored and the space surrounding got stuffed with straw. Appearently the loss was minimal thanks to short transportation in freezing conditions and good insulation during storage.
We had these ice collection and seasonal storage of ice in sweden to ,ther where ice cellars where they stored the ice blocks under saw dust .
When sub zero temperatures were required for the ice customer, they crushed the ice an mixed it with salt the melting of the ice when it became salty, would freze stuff . This is how ice cream was done originally .
Today there are ice cooling systems built for producing
City wide water based air conditioning, big piles of snow from snow clearing is dumped on a snow dump site ,under the snow there is brine filled plastic pipes ,and the whole pile is covered with wood chips and saw dust when the snow season ends . They have tried modern insulation plastic foam tarps stone wholl but the old time wood stuff was unbeatable .
Sometimes snow can be made with snow cannons if there is not enough in the dump.
Even doe the pile is outside during the summer , it would often not melt if there was not active melting from below.
Every time I hear Mike Lindell I laugh so hard because I'm from Minnesota but not everybody has the accent, I would say it's a small percentage.
I enjoyed Ricky’s Lindell accent
He subs like a northern Wisconsin guy
All right... No more social media for you! You're only allowed to interact with people over the age of 60 within 1 mile of your home until you get that accent down pat! Gotta preserve the tradition!
Yeah, the MN accent is pretty much going extinct. Only one of my four grandparents had it. You basically have to go up north and find a town with a population less than 1,000.
It took almost 3 full seconds for the Brazil tunnel guy to hit the bottom. He dug over 12 stories down.
😮
That's insane and honestly if I end up doing something like this at that age...damn anyone that tries to stop that type of dedication.
This is why boomers shouldn't be allowed access to minecraft and a ps3
Yeah that comparison to the statue of jesus really put into perspective how truly massive that hole was.
Took a while for the story to drop.
Never stop your lindell voice. Pure fucking gold.
The Brazilian Pensioner story is literally an episode of American Dad. Stan believes Olie North buried gold under his house and begins making a tunnel to get to it.
i just showed someone this episode to explain the iran-contra affair! also, this is the one where roger sexually harasses himself. i made the statement that if you're savvy enough, and work completely remotely, you might be able to pull this plot-line off in real life too.
I wonder what outlet cover triangulation he used and frozen treat wrappers he found
Oooooollie north OOOOOOOOLLIE NORTH!
Ayyyyyy youuu!
@@NeverStopRollingI love that RUclips offer to translate this to English. 😂
I couldn't stop trying to say "Et tu, Brute?" in a Mike Lindell accent and just chuckling like a loonie at that part 😂
This channel alone is keeping me addicted to the Internet
Not the porn? Right. Sure thing paaaal.
Petition for Ricky to do an entire episode with the Mike Lindell accent, so fucking funny
Seconded!
The Brazilian guy learned the hard way why you never dig straight down
minecraft noob irl
Lauren Boebert’s family situation is showing a lot of parallels with Sarah Palin’s
I've also noticed that. Such behavior seems to be a commonality amount the Christofascist pontificators.

“Holes are fun too, BUT THEY ARE NOT TUNNELS” lol u guys are great.
A tunnel is a hole but a hole is not a tunnel. Like squares and rectangles!
I am queer and can confirm that both holes and tunnels are fun.
When my son was younger he spent most of his time digging up holes in grandma's backyard. Boys love digging holes for themselves.
Dig a tunnel, dig, dig a tunnel
Dig a tunnel, dig, dig a tunnel
When it's done, you dig a bigger tunnel!
Dig, a tunnel, dig, dig a tunnel
Dig a tunnel, dig, dig a tunnel
Quick, before the hyenas come!

The great thing about so much tunnel news right at the top of 2023 is how there's so much time left for more tunnel related news to happen. It could be the year of the tunnel shenanigans
that Brazilian man spent over a year to dig a very deep grave for himself.
Yeah, no need to recover the body, just fill the hole.
I accidentally hit the "Next Episode" button as you were talking about dead children AI and it brought up the "Yes yes yes, Gang Gang" episode on the TikTok Livestreams.
That was a level of whiplash on the level of getting slammed into by the Cybertruck.
People don't yearn for the mines, they're preparing for the hyenas.
24:00 pretty sure it's not just the native americans who have lunar worship. It's just that they're the ones who have survived to the modern day. It's almost like it's a celestial body viewable from every corner of the planet's surface and not one singular continent.
Let's go! Middle of the day? Time to go to my tunnel and watch Internet today!
I call me ma's bee whole my tunnel. Her box I call my dumpster!
How did you get the internet to get your tunnel? That's the hardest part I'm running into. I just have a big long ethernet cable
Its been a terrible week so im so happy to get my mind off of things with this video. Thanks guys!
My dad beet my dawg almost to death right in front of me last night.
Feel better!
Thank you guys for always being a source of sanity upon the sea of craziness that it is our current, awful timeline.
this is a reply

This is a call to all my past resignations
There's a lot more Notsees in this timeline than I would have predicted. I'm not a big fan.
I wholeheartedly agree!
The Mike Lindell impression is what I needed to make my day! 😂
They had non alcoholic seltzer first…
This is just like calling tea unsweetened.
"sorry I'm from Fredericksburg" is a meme in Virginia. Nice to see the old town getting on the news.
He was not talking about elevators, even though he used that word. He was talking about the magnetic catapults to launch fighter jets in the new aircraft carrier GERALD FORD class. Hence the water reference. Magnetic catapults replaced the steam design which was decades old, but at significant cost overruns and several years of delays to get the new tech working properly. He has brought this up before.
Yet again uses the wrong words to talk about the wrong concept that he still doesn't understand and proposes a solution that wouldn't work based just on a couple of words he overheard once but has no experience or knowledge of.
The electromagnetic launchers are _hopefully_ one of those things that got screwed up despite being known to work in smaller applications, will now at least be easier on other vessels now that one defence contractor has shown that the others have no excuse for failing on.
Everytime the Bush secret service 2nd/3rd something meme comes up I giggle in real life
Same
I wonder... would "year of the hole" have gotten through YT guidelines?
I love Ricky's mike lindell impression

FYI for Ricky and Elliot: Chabad is pronounced the same way as Chutzpah, the "Ch" is from the back of the throat.
Do you have a pronunciation guide for Chutzpah?
@@BrayTube uhhh, it's hard to write out the sound in English, but it sounds similar to when you're trying to get something out of your throat.
Pretend you are about to hack out a loogie but end with “utzpah” or “abad”
Thanks, I learned something 😊
Thank you!! I posted a comment about that too.
Can I just say I always appreciate the care that both of you take to explain the nuance of news stories? Thanks fellas!
I've tried to quit drinking for the longest time for a multitude of reasons, and 45:55 might be what I needed to hear to get on the 0% stuff. Thanks, Ricky
OMG!!!! Your Mike accent is SPOT ON!!!
“How is he getting it up?…”
A truly baffling question for any 70 something year old
I guess famously Christian Greg Abbott forgot "Thou shalt not kill" is a thing.
Their usual hypocrisy
A lot of US Christians use the religion to cover up the fact that they are truly shitty people
@@ghostpenguins3 Yup

That Los Angeles River shirt and Elliot’s Casual hat are my two favorite things you guys wear. Wish you could put them out as merch.
The West Virginia story actually was in VIRGINIA happened in Fredericksburg,va part of Stafford county, Va. it’s actually funny to hear about something from my area on your show.
Lol, same mistake happened with the Country Roads song.
Best episode of Tunnel News Today yet! ❤🎉
You guys are the best, it's so nice to be the only one in my friend group who can explain the Mike Lindell lore along with all the other insane recurring characters.
Hey there, I just wanted to say, as a British left winger who is from a Jewish family, just how well you presented this video. I'm as aghast as you are about religious crazies but in this awful moment I stand with Palestine, I also appreciate the sensitive way you chose your words. I've been beaten up for being Jewish, I was was lynched by a gang with swastikas drawn in their arms with pens when I was 10 years old, and I'm scared by everything going on around me. As I said, I stand with Palestine and condemn Israelis horrific actions, I donate to gaza charities and i march for them in solidarity, but I very much appreciate the way you choose your words sensitively and carefully. Sending much love 😊
Words cannot describe my joy every time Ricky gets to do a Mike Lindell impression
You two always show up when we need you. 🤗
How does Moses make tea? Hebrews it!

So far ercot seems to be ok. Most outages are probably local issues due to trees, icing and the occasional car sliding on ice into a pole. We don't normally get enough ice for folks be experienced enough :) They are forecasting demand to be close the available supply for both Monday and Tuesday morning. Should be an interesting week.
Another great episode from internet today, RUclips’s hidden gem of a channel
The boys are back
i absolutely love when lindell said "They sued my pillow!!"
i heard that completely out of context and died to know why someone would sue the pillow of a very desperate crackhead 😅
i dunno if this gets mentioned, but thanks for taking the time to cite the sources for quotes and whatnot. it makes the videos much more professional and definitely adds longevity
I enjoy your takes very much - love the chuckles.
I was a delivery driver for a while and I got invited into this ladies house because she wanted to flash me as a tip because she didn’t have extra money.. and I would rate 10/10 for sure lol
Figures that the one night I have insomnia the boys upload at a decent time instead. Regardless keep up the great work guys
Great work, as always.
Cheers guys!
Those accents in Fargo are one of my favorite parts of the show. Commenting for engagement.
I love watching RUclips videos of Pacific Islanders digging majestic looking swimming pools in the jungle
Those aren't generally considered pacific islanders as far as I'm aware.
Worst pronunciation of Chabad Lubavitch but best reporting of this news on it I’ve heard yet
The content just hasn't been stopping, so much content!
Wow, your recent uploaded schedule is pretty impressive! 👌
I love that you keep mentioning Fargo coz I'm like Elliot, I don't watch or play anything til it's been out for at least 10 years so the reminder prompts that Fargo is good and I should watch it are appreciated lol
fargo is good and you should watch it, I think the movie is at least 10 years old
Each season is a contained story in a different time (normally like decades apart) and they are not connected, so you can start watching at any time. The show is a masterpiece.
We stan the Navajo moon curse.
If this is the year of the tunnel then there needs to be an episode of internet today while they are in a tunnel.
Great show as always
Alice found wonderland at the bottom of a tunnel. Let's learn from her. Only enter a tunnel if you're following a white rabbit

Keep up the great work gentlemen. Just wanted to make a small editorial not: Gene Roddenberry actually passed away in 1991 and portions of his remains have made several trips to space over the years. Being sent to space was actually his "last request" when he passed.
i JUST finished the last episode. Perfect timing!
FYI, the "ch" in Chabad (as in every Hebrew & Yiddish word) is pronounced like in the German _ach_ (the "h" in Habad is also really that). Also the accent in Lubavitch is on the 2nd syllable - loo-BAH-vitch.
And few people find the Lubavitchers more ridiculous than Reform & secular Jews. (Source: me, a secular Jew & Reform Bar Mitzvah)
Thank you, I commented about this too
There's like, some kinds of electro-magnets that _can_ be "quenched" by dowsing them in water (or some other methods) to rapidly de-magnetize them, i believe MRI machines have such magnets with built-in quenching systems in case of emergencies (that completely destroys the machine in the process). Not sure if they're the same magnets used in these elevators though, and if they are they're probably encased to protect against external quenching (short of the whole elevator being submerged, which is already a serious problem and demagnetization of the system might even be desired 🤷)
Trump probably heard something about these kinds of magnets from someone at some point and concluded _all_ magnets just die when they get a little wet or something 🤦
I believe the "quenching" of an MRI is simply releasing the pressure of the liquid helium and allowing it to rapidly boil away.
always happy when I see a new video from you guys
