Beach Digging

[whackdaddy]

Wat wood happen if u dug far enuf down on a natrual beach?

[euquelek]

with pumps, barriers and quick diggers, say you are on a continental shelf, the sand turns to pebbles and shale, probably pieces of shells and odors from all the bacteria living down there, boulders vary in depth, it depends where really... your question has potential, but you dont really care anyway, do you?

In the UK you would likely be approached by the police fairly quickly in most locations because it is an offence to mine sand, etc. without authorisation (Orkney excepted if you own the Udal rights - they have a land law different from mainland UK) and you would have to explain yourself.

You'd reach rock.

[ralph1953]

you'd get wet...

[darth vader]

Is this as opposed to an artificial beach? The answer is your spade would melt (eventually) followed closely by your wrist, arm, body etc...

Or you could say you would pass out and die through asphyxiation due to lack of oxygen.

Or you could say you came out at China (?)

Or you could say you drown when the tide comes in.

Is there any point to this question?

You'd find osama bin laden.
