Teen Killed After 10-Foot Deep Sand Hole Collapses At New Jersey Beach

Initially a shocking tragedy…. Until you realize they dug a ten foot hole in on themselves.

I’m a landscaper and was installing a 300 pound rock. I got in the hole with it. Don’t ever do that. I started digging. If it had fallen over, I would be dead.

The crabby retired Navy homeowner saw me doing it and ordered me out of that hole. He saved my life. Afterwards I realized how stupid a death that might have been.

Jesus don't teach common sense.

I bet he was sitting down while all the sand collapsed on him…so sad

we used to make fox holes on the beach and used metal sovels, made tunnels you would crawl in to the other chambers. My parents didnt supervise me as a kid and I could do whatever. Looking back I dodged a bullet!!!

Can someone explain to me how the hole collapses???

Jesus…imaging digging that hard at your future grave.

Tragedy

They were trying to dig to china. A noble task.

Unfortunate Darwin Award candidate. Stop calling things caused by rampant stupidity "accidents". A teenager digs a ten foot hole and gets buried alive? Well of course they did. We as society need to start taking responsibility for our actions and everything we do leading up to them. Wow get a clue.

Knew Jesus Christ…….. Good to have faith in Christ, but don't be stupid.

how do u dig 10 feet with a frisbee

"Not concerned with what others were thinking"? Sir, should you be digging a hole that deep? No, go away!

They were probably digging to make some sort of a well like other YTers do.

You can dig it deep, you just gotta grade it out to prevent the collapse from killing anyone

Man, some people have some very weird hobbies..

I doge 7 nq a 9 a.

Definitely a renter, pro tip guys bring plastic tub lids or your boogie board to use as a roof you can put some sand on them to make it camouflaged without the weight

they said 6 feet stop the fake news

Darwin

YEAHHHH DIG HOLES, A MANS ONE TRUE GOAL

lol chances are they straight killed the teen but standing on him or putting the machinery on the sand.

Sorry for his loss and condolences to the family.

I can't help but wonder though, what do people get out of digging large holes the begin with. This type of tragedy could certainly be prevented.

God that's HORRIBLE! 😫

“ he knew Jesus Christ” made chills go down my arm. That’s a good thing to know for certain as he does about his son. Rest I. Peace lil bro❤️❤️❤️💪💪💪

And nothing of value was lost

We were digging a 10 ft hole. Common sense isn’t common

This is a trend on tiktok now, unbelievable. I’m praying that they ban tiktok.

Tiktok is cool i must say

The reporter did a trash job on this story
Fire her
Her voice is annoying too

"who knew Jesus Christ" …. Guys, ok whatever

En qué diablos están los papás no tienen nada de cuidado con sus hijos por estar en el teléfono 📵 ☎️ 😐 😡 🤦 😑 📵 ☎️ 😐 😡 🤦 😑 📵 ☎️ 😐 😡 🤦 😑 📵

I can’t imagine. When I put my feet under 2 feet under the sand it already feels heavy

“Who knew Jesus Christ.” Thank you Lord for showing him who you are.🙏🏻❤️
