Without a doubt, this has to be one of the most remarkable stories there are. It doesn’t come as a surprise that the filming of this beyond incredible process of digging inside a cave earned an Academy Award nomination for the best documentary. Truly remarkable.
In a high desert of Northern of Mexico, if you listen carefully, you just might hear something more than the wind… it’s the underground sound of a man “obsessed” with creating the extraordinary.
Rob Paulette has spent 25 years of his life crafting a cave and turning it into something so special that it takes people’s breath away. His only companion in this remarkable journey has been his loyal dog.
Rob is not a structural engineer, and he’s not an architect, he’s simply a man who has found his passion.
“Most of the wonder that I feel is in the actual making of the cave,” Rob says. “Once they are done I move on.”
So far, he has dug a dozen caves, each of which more mesmerizing than the other.
The cave along the Rio Grande river even has power, a wooden floor, and a colorful bathtub with running water.
The only tools he uses are hand tools such as shovels, medics, and scrapers.
Until recently, Rob’s work was unknown for most people. Actually, only a handful of his friends knew of his work until his story reached one filmmaker who spent three years following Rob and his journey of creating masterpieces out of caves.
Once the word of these impressive caves spread, people became interested in purchasing them. And yes, they are now being sold through a realtor.
To gain further insights into his remarkable endeavor, check out the video below! You are going to be blown out.

A Dollar General Store Faces Unprecedented Closure as Staff Quits
Unexpectedly, a Dollar General shop in Mineral Point, Wisconsin, was forced to temporarily close due to the simultaneous resignation of every employee. This unanticipated event highlights the difficult circumstances that many diligent workers encounter.
The store’s general manager, Trina Tribolet, disclosed that the employees felt underpaid and overworked. She had been working seven days a week for months on end due to inadequate staffing hours. The staff was burned out and felt underappreciated because of this demanding schedule.
The personnel knew they had to step down even though it was not an easy decision since they could not keep working hard without being acknowledged or compensated. It was hard to say goodbye to devoted clients who made their days better, but their mental and physical health had to come first.
On a Saturday morning, the store closed for around three hours before returning with an entirely new crew. A representative for Dollar General stressed the company’s dedication to fostering a supportive workplace where workers feel heard, respected, and have the chance to advance their careers.
But the store’s food donation program pushed Tribolet and her former coworkers to the breaking point. The quantity of perfectly nice products that were needlessly thrown away rather than being donated to those in need demoralized them. While some food is donated to pantries, stringent controls resulted in a large amount of food going to waste.
Tribolet vented her annoyance, recounting stories of goods like cereal boxes or coffee that were thrown out because their expiration dates were approaching. These things were sadly thrown away due to strict guidelines, even though they could have delighted kids and families in need.
Although the business complied with Feeding America’s criteria for donations, the staff felt that more should be done to reduce waste and enhance community support. This shutdown serves as a reminder to always consider the influence on the local community and the well-being of employees.
Let’s tell people about this enlightening tale so they can comprehend the difficulties experienced by committed workers in their pursuit of change.
