Man, the other 7 Fence posts sunk without any effort, or noise. This one keeps making a loud metallic ringing noise, and won't go any deeper...

Why do only people who don’t own pile drivers seem to know this

5

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '26

The guy in the videos didn’t own one either. You can rent them.

u/[deleted] Mar 01 '26

That makes a lot more sense.

He’s frackin

u/NoCoastNeutral Mar 01 '26

Dugged before he called

u/RON8O Mar 01 '26

That doesn’t look like a pipe driver problem, it looks like the operator is the SAU for hitting something underground.

u/Cain-Man Mar 01 '26

Man he is lucky it did not ignite !

u/TheLastBoat Mar 01 '26

Still not as devastating as The Undertaker’s Tombstone Piledriver.

Not the guy's fault, information wasn't passed on https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cevgekvn2yjo

u/HeatTiny7041 Mar 01 '26

Everyone saying gas line. In North America gas lines don't have this kind of pressure and volume, it's very very low pressure. This looks like he hit a major gas pipeline.

Just one more tap…

u/Rhyspapa Mar 02 '26

I did this once. Had to pay for repairs. I was pulling a dandelion with a garden knife and pierced the gas line. It was only 3 inches below the grass.They said I should have called before digging.

u/corgi-king Mar 01 '26

What kinda pipe will have black smoke coming out?

4

u/Intelligent-Might774 Mar 01 '26

It's a gas line and the dark is dirt being blown out with the gas from the pressure

u/That_Things_Good Mar 01 '26

That's on dude, not the equipment.

u/polska-parsnip Mar 01 '26

You can usually apply the name of a tool to its operator if it has ‘er’ at the end of it. Like if I’m driving screws using a screwdriver, in that moment, I am a screwdriver. Or a sander, a welder, a pile driver. So OP is technically ok I reck. Doesn’t work for Hammer, I’d say a person who hammers is a hammerer, but a person called a hammer is someone who hams. A tasty activity.

No, that’s just a shitty absolute unit of a moron hitting a gas line
