it was actually "the diggers" from that show "Recess" back in the day all grown up. they couldn't even resist the urge to dig enough to show up to school in regular clothes instead of in construction gear.
there are so many funny parts in the real life version of this story it would almost be hack to adapt it into a movie. From the hassidic man climbing out of the sewers and scurrying away, over the italian "we dont do that in America" cop to the man who starts hearing jewish whispers under the floorboards right when Israel-Palestine conflict dominates the zeitgeist . Also apparently a lot of it happened after a death left the organization with a power struggle. i mean you couldnt write this better.
"Hasidic man argues with Extremely Italian American Cop over their right to secretly build a tunnel to another building" feels like one of the most NYC-flavored stories possible
I want to just clarify stuff as a native Jewish New Yorker, the Hassids are a small percent of the Jewish population but they are very recognizable for their clothing. I’m not the most informed about them but it’s pretty much common sense to us non-hassids that they are very much in a cult type religion. The messianic people especially are strange because they are so convinced that the messiah is here and they have pictures of this old guy all over the city and especially in Brooklyn because that’s where most of them live. There’s a group of buildings in prospect park that are only rented by hassids and I see posters all the time
I worked for tsa for 2 years and I got the soup shit everyday. I had someone call me stupid because I told them they could not bring 6 jars of honey through. I had these conversations everyday, every fucking day
i'm pretty sure they were attempting to tunnel from within the synagogue, to an abandoned property across the street that the group was actively trying to get the rights to (they claimed the litigation i still on going). The group of guys were part of the synagogue and fought the police for attempting to fix the structural damage from the tunnel. it was only found due to construction workers discovering it as they were doing work on the street.
No you gotta understand, for the Chabad Jews this is THE synagogue. The rabbi who founded the movement taught there before he died and is seen by his followers as the literal Messiah.
Haha, that's the funny thing, we don't gotta understand. Their nonsense means nothing to anyone else and they shouldn't expect it to. If I was found to be digging tunnels all under my neighborhood, I'd go to prison. These guys should too, and the building should be turned into a bar or something.
@@chillinginr.i. not yet, only peanut butter and chocolate, donno if its one of the better ones or not but its great, I'm gonna try the other ones too, I didn't know this even existed here
the episode wouldn't be George tunneling it would be he sees them all walking out of a stair well with shovels and the episode would be his slow decent into madness trying to figure out what these people are doing at the bottom of the stairwell and jerrys new girl friend is a part of this synagogue and georges madness would lead to him calling the cops and getting the secret tunnels found out George: what are they doing jerry? I GOTTA KNOW JERRY!?!?!
I still can't believe this is a thing that's happened. Life is so goddamn ridiculous. 😂 Also i feel so sorry for the man who made so many soups for his brother.
okay but have yall seen the guy that has been tweeting since like November that he thinks they're were jewish people under his apartment, Richard Strocher, he said he keeps hearing people digging and speaking yiddish under his appt. and everytime he clarifies the he lives at ground level with no basement
They built them in the last year. These guys kinda do whatever they wanna within their own communities, have their own emergency services etc. hence why they’re taking a stand for the secret tunnel. Apprently it connected to the women’s building, and the guys arrested were mostly younger, so my guess is it was a tunnel for them to meet their girls and hook up. Still a wild story
No, there were a lot more connections than that lol...they even made connections to offices and sewer exits...they are very obviously doing some sort of trafficking. Scientology does this exact same thing, they also have tunnels connecting up all their buildings and a lot more, except thoes are at least fucking legal and safely done so they won't collapse an entire city block
I’m not here to try and preach, but I see a lot of people in the comments calling the Hasidim a cult, and even comparing them to Scientologists, and I just have to write a response to this because it is completely untrue. Hasidism is a very vibrant religious movement that has its roots in the Kabbalah (Jewish Mysticism) combined with many traditionalist and conservative cultural practices. The whole purpose of the Hasidic movement in short is to look for Godliness in the natural world and live life in total accordance with the teachings of the Jewish faith, all to get closer to God and become more spiritually rich. Some of them can be quite extreme like the ones who view the Lubavitcher Rebbe as the messiah. However, when you look at how the Rebbe’s legacy it’s not hard to see why he’s so loved, he’s easily one of the most prominent Jews in the history of the 3,000-year-old religion, as well as one of the most significant religious and spiritual leaders of the 20th century. He united global Jews after the Holocaust (which he barely escaped, and most Hasidim are direct descendants of), and in 1950 revolutionized ideas of community outreach, he funded synagogues, hospitals, schools, care facilities, etc. He also wasn’t an extremist, he made a point of reaching out to non-Hasidim, including more moderate secular/reform Jews. His spiritual teachings are also pretty influential with works like Likkutei Sikkot, which is meant to explain Hasidic teaching and show Jews can live in a Godly way from day to day life. Think of all the banners and photos you see of him in the same way you may see a Catholic with a picture of the Pope in their house. Like I said, I don’t want to go preach but explain to people the beauty that is at the heart of Hasidism. Obviously, there are flaws in Hasidic communities, but we shouldn’t look at them as this crazy religious cult, but as people who have found a different way of life that even more moderate Jews and non-Jews can learn from. In many ways, Hasidism has SAVED Judaism, by connecting people who were nearly wiped out and allowing millions of people to live in a deeply rich cultural, loving, and spiritual life. I hope this makes sense, sorry if doesn’t provide that much I just wanted to give an alternate view to Hasidism from what I’ve seen in the comments if you want more information Drew Binsky who’s a travel vlogger made a wonderful video about life in the Hasidic community, where he talks to actual Hasids and goes into the history of the movement, I would HIGHLY recommend it for anyone unfamiliar. Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/FpuE_ZZCo3s/v-deo.html
These tunnels were made for two reasons: 1. there was some kind of dispute between the congregation upstairs and the one downstairs, and 2. so they could access the synagogue and pray during covid. Cant wait for whatever goofy shit people come up with
It doesn’t matter why the tunnels were made, the problem is that you’re building fucking tunnels without telling anybody. These are not master craftsmen, it’s a bunch of random dudes with shovels, they have no clue what they’re doing. I don’t know if you know too much about architecture, but you can’t just start putting tunnels below buildings without making sure that it’s structurally sound.
@@coasterthekid8867 yeah obviously lmao that's not my point. My point is that while what they did was very dangerous and stupid, it was also for very stupid reasons, not "satanic rituals" or whatever people seem to think was happening down there
I haven't even started the video and i can almost guarantee that will enters a rabbit hole and loses his shit all the while chat is gaslighting the fuck out of him.
the urge to tunnel is the reason for it obviously
The people yearn for the mines
True
But this sounds like a reference.
The Hasidic urge to dig a hole
The urge to dig a hole with the boys
it was actually "the diggers" from that show "Recess" back in the day all grown up. they couldn't even resist the urge to dig enough to show up to school in regular clothes instead of in construction gear.

The idf or iof is full of this sect. they also reign the military campaign/massacre in gaza now. i guess they are looking for the hamas tunnels.

This fully just sounds like something alex jones would yell out during a rant
So we can’t have fun anymore we can’t just dig tunnels and be silly goofy fellas
