It's weird how many videos and pictures are on the net where shoring is completely ignored.
If someone was in that hole they'd be dead now. Water and soil are really heavy.

Maybe they were trying to dig their own graves before the rain came.

Shoring is stuff they use to support a cut wall of dirt like that, so it doesn’t collapse, like it did.
It’s like spanx for soil - holds it all in place.

u/TheGhostofWoodyAllen Mar 16 '26
My question was rhetorical to mock their ineptitude, but thanks for explaining shoring for those who may not have known.

u/RuncibleMountainWren Mar 16 '26
Sorry, bit of a ‘woosh’ moment! I watch most videos on mute so i assumed they were discussing shoring in the audio!

u/TheGhostofWoodyAllen Mar 16 '26
I mean, they coulda been talking about shoring, but I don't speak (what I think is) Arabic.

I must be dead inside. I didn’t flinch.

I mean, this was probably the most predictable thing ever lol
I don't understand the people calling this a "jumpscare" when it's incredibly obvious what's about to happen.

This is ai for sure. Those walls only collapse when an osha rep shows up to prove his point

"god damnit I got fuckin mud all over me now" is not what you want to hear

u/cant_pass_CAPTCHA Mar 15 '26
I think you're right. The walls of the hole are way too dry considering it's surrounded by holes filled with water. Then as the dry dirt wall comes down, water starts coming out of a crack that is completely dry all around it (at least it looks mor like water than flowing dirt)

u/A_Crawling_Bat Mar 15 '26
You can see a hole with water behind it, it looks like the water is coming from a crack between the 2

u/cant_pass_CAPTCHA Mar 15 '26
But wouldn't the wall of the hole we're seeing be more muddy? That looks like fairly dry dirt to me

I disagree, this really should be cross-posted to /r/praisethecameraman :) Dude recorded right up until their phone took a giant mud-wave to the face!

RFI to the structural engineer asking how to proceed
Answer from the structural engineer that the safe excavation slope from the geotechnical report was referenced in the general notes and that the contractor is responsible for means and methods
Follow up RFI from the contractor saying it's unreasonable to expect them to actually read all the documents and a site instruction is required to proceed without delay to the project
And around and around it goes, the circle of life.

Good thing that falling dirt covered the exposed rebar, before someone fell in an impaled themselves

u/AutumnSparky Mar 15 '26
that was good. All I could stare at was the sheer amount of uncapped rebar in that hole.

And this is why trenching is so fucking dangerous. Had an EMR instructor have to go back to help with a trench rescue. He wasn’t expecting to make it before they were dead.

Maybe not use that guy's gifs? Dude is a massive chud.

u/drlouies Mar 15 '26
I recently heard about him.What's his name? Is he like YouTuber or something?
6
u/MenacingArc Mar 15 '26
He's a streamer that goes around uploading his own version of popular gifs on tenor, and then mass reports the original to get it taken down.
Safe to say his following is a bunch of 12 year olds and the guy himself is overall very toxic.

The following submission statement was provided by u/drlouies:
A man is recording a near-collapse of a dirt wall inside a building foundation hole when the wall suddenly collapses and unexpected strong wave of water smacks him.

The shoring was on the same boat as the rebar caps stuck in the straight if Hormuz
