If I go to Hormuz with some digging equipment and dig a channel trough Dubai, will I have solved the oil crisis?

It's all sand afterall, ain't it?

I love that... You can also save on oil usage too... And you don't even need the boats to carry it...

Wait, what if we enclose that ditch like, with a cover, something round around it, like to keep it from being diluted by rain or evaporated by sun?

Like a tunnel, or a pipe ...

What are you saying ?? Trump's commissioned the Pentagon bomber fleets for that sand ⏳, and you intend to solve the oil crisis simply with your digging equipment ??🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

I have a shovel, a very good one. In fact, I know more about shovels than anybody else .

Rocks are compressed sand, so we relax them a bit. Let them decompress, then dig them away.
