this is something fairly extraordinary. Two guys with wood stick and large metal knife build a shelter in the jungle.

Get off my lawn!

That is amazing. But I would think a rain forest shelter needs a roof. And there is no WI-FI service!
It looks like something from a movie that the hero finds some hot Amazon woman living in.

Dammit, Bobby, I have told you a million times. Don't wipe your feet. You are tracking clean into the house

I have never once, ever come across soil like that. Carving it up with a knife like that, to me, is more like sawing packed snow than digging dirt.
Just add water and viola!-Waterproof stucco! Not here, no how. I’m gonna construct a free-standing lumber door jamb and plant it in the field. Using a snowblower, I’ll diligently cover it with surrounding snow as weather permits. Once the mound with the frame within is large enough I’ll start dig out the doorway and carve out a cave behind it. I’ve read igloos can attain a temp of 50° in sub-zero conditions. I’m skeptical. |

So just how long did it take them to dig that structure. The video makes it appear only 1 day. They don't talk much either!
