Every night, Patsy Kerr dug a tunnel from his bedroom for 15 years. Because his wife slept so soundly, she only learned about the project when he left at night and attempted to follow him.
It took all the strength of the plumber from Omagh to complete the painstaking work. Later, he admitted that he had thought of quitting everything more than once. However, the tunnel was already too deep. Stopping would be just as difficult as continuing. In the middle of the night, my wife falls asleep only with sleeping pills and does not hear anything. As Patsy told reporters, “I worked and worked and once brought a puncher.”. The plumber’s strange work was completed after 15 years.
When Patsy dug a comfortable narrow hole to the nearest pub, his wife stopped taking sleeping pills, and Patsy’s plan failed. With great amazement, the woman awoke one night to find her husband hiding in a narrow hole behind the closet. She looked inside, traced the tunnel a little, but did not reach the end. In the morning, she waited for her husband to return. There was no choice but for Patsy to confess everything.
There would still be a need to fill in the tunnel. Part of the tile fell through the sidewalk when it went under it. Local authorities had already taken notice of the situation.
