This is a video about the ups and downs of gravedigging. You can see how I dig a grave, what kind of soil can be found in the grave, which obstacles are the most common and I'll show you how a grave with shoring works and you'll see it right before the burial. There's too much to cover in one video so gravedigging techniques and tools will be discussed later. Digging graves by hand varies in difficulty, but usually it ranges from hard to very hard. Digging a grave in such perfect conditions as in the beginning of the video, is a rare treat, and a nice change from clay, gravel and unexpected roots. If you have any questions that weren't already answered in the video, then feel free to ask and I'll try to answer.
