    We’re all having fun here, but remember, don’t dig a hole in beach sand deeper than knee-deep to the shortest person in your group.

    And please don’t ogle strangers. Porn is free. Take care of your urges at home.

        Sand walls can collapse suddenly, especially when water levels change (like, with the tide). If you make too deep of a hole, you can find yourself buried with little warning. Knee-deep is a good height that even if it does collapse in you, you’ll still be able too get yourself out. Hip-deep, you might end up stuck as the wet sand keeps filling up as fast as you can dig it out.
