You would find it hard to believe that this all just started in a basement. What this man thought as a simple DIY project turned out to be an important historical discovery. The homeowner could not afford to hire a professional contractor to renovate his house, so he has to do all of the work. All he wanted was to expand his home to accommodate his growing family.

He thought that it’s a good idea to start in the basement. The man took a sledgehammer and started knocking down some walls and slamming into wood and stone. He was at it for hours on end until the hours turned to days. Have you ever tried tearing down a stone wall? If you’ve never done it, you should know that it takes a lot more than just elbow grease.
