bc of a girl who was backing out of my driveway and completely raped my mailbox, i am now here.

Thanks for the video. Very informative, glad I watched this as I didn't think to add stones to the bottom of the hole first.
Couple questions...
Would it be easier to attach the mailbox to the post prior to setting it? Did you attach your mailbox directly to the 4"x4" or did you attach a piece of plywood to the 4"x4" and attach the mailbox to that?
@JonO387: Setting a mailbox is more than just digging a hole... unless your mailbox is simply just a hole in the ground, but I doubt your mail ca

Do people really need a video to show them how to dig a hole?

Thanks for your comment however contacting your local utility is mentioned at 3:50 before you dig so you can have the utilities marked.

Very helpful--especially the information about placement of the mailbox far enough from the curb and at the correct height from the street. I also thought the tip about adding gravel to the bottom is great.
Yes, you do, and if you took a few minutes to watch it you saw that I pointed out the need to measure correctly, to call your locate utility company so you don't hit any utility lines, etc.
