Great piece on the BBC tonight
drug runners in Mexico dig a tunnel into the USA
they started with a concrete lined shaft in the living room of a house in Tijuana mexico, went down 90ft the tunneled for half a mile right under the border and came up in a warehouse in
San Diego the tunnel passed right under the border gaurds who try to stop drugs going into the states
the tunnel had electric strip lighting air conditioning and rail tracks with mine carts on to transport the drugs. when they raided the warehouse they found twenty tons of marijuana
and they have no idea how long the tunnel has been there or how much drugs have traveled through it
it was very well mined through solid rock and looked very safe

I saw this on the Beeb web site. It looked incredbly well built.

Yes this is similar to the one last week
i have since been on youtube and tapped in drug tunnels in mexico and about a hundred turned up
some have winding gear and cages one even had an electric winch set on a 45 degree incline
they reported in one clip that the drug barons are employing miners to dig them
when the yanks find them they bore holes every 40 feet and pour concrete down to totally fill it up at a cost of over two million dollars per tunnel
