How Deep Can You Possibly Dig?
interestingfactdaily.blogspot.com/2020/05/how-deep-can-you-possibly-dig.html
what's the deepest hole you can possibly dig do you
remember that absolutely divine feeling you had as a child when you were digging in wet
sand at the beach deeper and deeper have you ever wondered where you would have
ended up if you kept digging without stopping great news even if you never managed to
find out how far down your little tunnel could go this Article will tell you maybe someone
has already used modern technology to reach the core of the planet and we just haven't
heard about it yet but before you start digging for the truth hit.
1/5
where numerous secrets are ready to be revealed and if you don't want
to miss
anything new.
let's start our dig at a depth of 2.3 feet you'll find numerous Mole
tunnels and rabbit warrens by the way a mole can dig a tunnel longer than 65 feet in just
one day if we move down a bit more we'll get to the standard depth of a grave if we're
speaking about Western culture of
course that's about 6 feet down in fact the actual depth of a grave can vary but the
expression six feet under didn't appear out of the blue that was the burial depth in
plague infected England and it was a stipulation of the Mayor of London in 1665 such a
depth was believed to prevent the spreading of the
infection deep burrowing species of earthworms can be spotted at a depth of 10 feet one
of them draw witih grandis can grow up to 3.5 feet long gigantic worms haven't managed
to scare us so we're digging further down about 13 feet underground we come across
the tomb of pharaoh tutankhamun it was discovered by archaeologist Howard Carter in
1922 20 feet is the maximum range of a metal detector even so a high-end detector will
probably spot a car hidden underground at this depth but if a detector is not so
advanced or if an object is small it won't work you can still find the roots of tropical
forest plants if you dig 23 feet down tropical trees need such long roots to store water
during dry periods william little of Hackney aka The Mole Man lived in London and
managed to burrow 26 feet under his own house he started in the 60s and this process
took him more than 40 years the web of caverns and tunnels the man dug spreads more
than 65 feet away from the house almost 40 feet down and you'll see the deepest
burrow made by an animal surprisingly this super deep hole is dug by the Nile crocodiles
when we arrive at a depth of 60 feet we can see Beijing's underground city that's a
subterranean bomb shelter consisting of a vast network of tunnels and underground
rooms it is situated under the capital of China at a depth of 66 feet the Paris catacombs
are located they were discovered in the 18th century these catacombs contain the
2/5
remains of more than 6 million people well this might sound a bit shocking but at a
depth of 110 feet there's an underground farm yes they use a former bomb shelter to
grow veggies and herbs in London the deepest swimming pool in the world the y40
diving pool in motsi grotto Terme Italy goes 131 feet down if you fell into this pool when
there was no water in it it would take you three seconds to reach the bottom do you
think that's too long or not long enough tell us in the comments below in Cappadocia
Turkey there's an underground complex that probably dates back to the seventh century
its name is the darin caillou
underground city and it's situated almost 280 feet below Earth's surface at 328 feet you'll
find yourself at the death in which radioactive waste stored and just a bit deeper at 346
feet you'll be able to see where the deepest metro station in the world is situated that's
our cinema metro station in Kiev the Channel Tunnel connecting the UK with France is
situated at a depth of 377 feet a wild fig tree that grows at the echo caves near auric
stats ow that ax has the deepest roots known to people
they go down 400 feet but there's a hotel room that situated even deeper than that you
can find the deepest hotel room in the world 508 feet underground at Salas silver mine
in Sweden sounds crazy right but what will you say about the deepest half marathon at a
depth of 695 feet it took place in 2004 at the bak Nia Salt Mine in Poland the deepest
railway tunnel is located at a depth of 787 feet that's the maximum depth of the seek
and tunnel in Japan that opened in 1988 and the deepest Road tunnel on earth is the
Ike's and tunnel in Norway it goes under the sea and reaches 942 feet below Earth's
surface even if we could get down to 1,001 feet we'd still be in the danger zone for the be
8 to earth penetrating nuclear warhead that's its maximum destructive depth at a depth
of 1286 feet we'll see the deepest hand-dug water well Wooding dean water well is
located near Brighton UK it was created in 1862 and is also likely to be the deepest hole
in the world ever dug without the use of any technology remember this number 2110
feet that's how far down that deepest natural shaft in the world goes it's the verdict
Lavasa cave in slovenia if you were unlucky enough to fall down the shaft your fall will
last 11 seconds before you reach the bottom however even deeper than that at 2,000
297 feet 33 Chilean miners trapped for 69 days it happened in the San Jose copper and
gold mine in Chile in 2010 all of the miners were rescued at a depth of 3,800 feet there's
a deepest bat colony in the world about 1,000 brown bats spend every winter in a zinc
mine in New York the deepest concert in history took place at a depth of 4,000 166 feet
in a mine in Finland in 2007 the performer was a band called agonizer then there's home
state gold mine in the USA its death is 4855 feet in 1965 this mine hosted a successful
experiment scientists detected and counted neutrinos subatomic particles from the Sun
the deepest coal mine is the ginger ik2 mine which is located in the Czech Republic it has
a depth of four thousand nine hundred twenty feet and closed in 1991 about five
thousand nine hundred twenty feet down and we arrived at the deepest part of the 227
mile long Grand Canyon its average depth is five thousand two hundred eighty two feet
the deepest cave known to humankind is krubera cave in the arabica Massif in Georgia
the cave goes down seven thousand one hundred eighty five feet at seven thousand six
hundred seventy seven feet below the earth's surface that deepest radio broadcast took
3/5
place it was held by CBC and happenin Creighton mined Ontario Canada in 2005 the
deepest laboratory in the world is the jinping underground laboratory in China and it is
situated 8200 two feet underground.
let's dig a bit deeper voila ten thousand two hundred three feet down
and we see the deepest single shaft elevator in the world it's located in the MOA coats
on gold mined in South Africa if you decide to take the elevator down it will take you four
and a half minutes but if you opt for a shortcut and jump into the shaft you'll reach the
bottom and just 25 seconds the deepest known
multicellular organism dwells at a depth of 11811 feet that's a worm found in the tout
ona mine in South Africa now let's go deeper down the tout on of mine in fact it's the
deepest human destination in the world a trip down to the bottom takes more than an
hour the temperature there will definitely make you sweat it reaches a whopping 151
degrees Fahrenheit the average depth of the oceanic crust is almost 20,000 feet this is
also the depth of the deepest known microbes they were found in rocks below China's
song Lao Basin at a depth of about 36,000 feet there's the deepest point of the ocean
Mariana Trench but people have managed to get even deeper than that until recently the
absolute champion of the depths was the Kola super-deep borehole this is the second
deepest artificial hole on the planet and it's situated in Russia the depth of this wondrous
human creation is 40,000 355 feet that was a project of the Soviet Union they tried to
drill through Earth's crust however they only
made it 1/3 of the way after that the temperature reached 356 degrees Fahrenheit and
4/5
the drillcouldn't operate any longer if you stumble across this hole by accident you aren't
likely to recognize it its diameter is just 9 inches and it looks absolutely nondescript on
the other hand it probably helps to prevent people accidentally falling down there if you
drop a coin down the shaft it will fall 450 seconds before it reaches the bottom and the
winner in the category of the deepest artificial hole on earth is Z 44 shave Oh oil and gas
well this shaft is drilled down to a whopping 40,000 604 feet that's 15 Burj Khalifa's put
on top of each other the shaft is located in the Russian Far East how deep underground
would you agree to go tell us in the comment section below.
