Amazing dig depth can be achieved with a grab fitted to a pole, such as this shaft at a power station. Using a 60 tonne long reach this was digging clay up to 22m deep.

  • The hole is located next to the sea estuary and its to do with stabilisation of the ground. The sand is being pumped out but has hit a layer of clay.

  • Excellent vid! Where was this filmed and what were they building?

  • South coast of England. This is the underground incinerator under construction for a new energy from waste plant. One big deep hole!
