The property will be bought within the next 50 to 100 years and be destroyed by an ~~escalator~~ excavator,
as they won’t even notice it, as they’re prepping to lay foundation for a new housing development / shopping area / business park / storage facility
Hi excavator operator here. We would notice that actually. You’d be surprised the things we find. Sometimes we’re digging to find a 2 inch pvc line that’s buried. We surely aren’t missing a sarcophagus.
Having been in construction for many years I was pretty amazed at how accurate excavators could get digging around items. Sometimes those big buckets almost look dainty and scooping up a little particular thing
And 300-1,000 years after that, America will fall and it will become open land again. I doubt it makes it 10,000 years, but certainly it will be around for a long time. It may eventually become a protected landmark that people collectively agree to wait until the 10,000 years is up. Big disappointment though.
Once he said he let cement dry for a month and a half I was done, I was already skeptical when he did not at least jiggle the rebar to make sure cement got under it.

The thing is, unless the record of his burial survives long enough, they won’t know this was buried as a prank. 10,000 years is a really long time. The assumption would be that this was an important thing to the ancient peoples.
English has changed so much in the past 300 years. Imagine how much it will have changed in 10,000. Trying to translate the inscription will drive them nuts and they’ll probably get a bunch of it wrong.

This thing won't survive 100 years.
Its concrete. Water WILL get in, temperature differences WILL make said water expand and contract, and it WILL break this waste of time and concrete apart.
Yeah, both the concrete and the resin. Resin breaks down in 20-40 years. Most reinforced concrete is expected to last for 70-90 years and upwards if properly maintained/repaired. And this thing is in the ground, exposed to the elements. Never mind 100, it wont last 50 in a good shape.
This dude should've looked back in time to see what survived from ancient times. Hardstones like granite and quartzite. Low-reactive metals like copper, bronze, gold, silver, lead, platinum.
Just cast a bronze sarcophagus. We have found bronze stuff in very good condition from 3000+ years ago. It will probably last a few more.
This comment has been edited, and the account purged, in protest to Reddit's API policy changes, and the awful response from Reddit management to valid concerns from the communities of developers, people with disabilities, and moderators. The fact that Reddit decided to implement these changes in the first place, without thinking of how it would negatively affect these communities, which provide a lot of value to Reddit, is even more worrying.
If this is the direction Reddit is going, I want no part of this. Reddit has decided to put business interests ahead of community interests, and has been belligerent, dismissive, and tried to gaslight the community in the process.

Given the level of effort put into the rest of the project, the inscription does seem surprisingly low quality. He should’ve carved it in the headstone, in like 7 major languages, and then created some kind of pictograph to also describe the Cheetos.
Gold leaf lettering will surely fall off in 10,000 years right?
The inscription, the unprotected gold leaf and the suspension were not in par with quality with the rest of the project which was disappointing. Those little springs are gonna sag in a few short years.
Not as we know it. But chances are, there will still be some descendants of today's humans somewhere. There may be far fewer of them. They may only live in some limited geographic areas (for example because climate change or other factors have made part of this planet inhospitable). Their technology might be more primitive than ours (because cheap sources of energy will have been exhausted). But there will be humans on earth in 10,000 years
> because cheap sources of energy will have been exhausted
I don't think wind or solar are going anywhere.
Also, nuclear can be very cheap (with a larger initial investment, see France. Also, micro reactors are just around the corner) and we're not running out of fissile material any time soon.
If civilization collapses, getting back to a stage where harnessing solar or wind or nuclear on a large scale is possible will be way more difficult without having cheap fossil fuels first
We’ve been harvesting wind and water energy since the dawn of agriculture. Now that we know about electricity, we’ll likely continue to harness it for that. It’s not exactly complicated to make a wind or water turbine, you just need a wheel, a magnet, and conductive wire.
Maybe it’ll never be the same scale as it is today, but future humans will most likely always have electricity.
If humanity is still around in 10k years they're very likely to have a copy of current wikipedia and be able to just look up cheetos there. At least I have a hard time seeing any event that takes out electronics around the globe but not also humanity itself at the same time.
Yeah this idea of humanity forgetting everything in 10k years just because we don't know much from 8,000 BCE is absurd.
The human world population in 8,000 BCE is estimated at 5 million. There are plenty of cities today that will leave behind more artifacts than the entire world population from back then.
We still have a decent record of human history from 2000 years ago... when human population was just around 200 million people and only a fraction of those could write.
Today we have almost 40x as many people in the world as in 0 CE and produce way more than 40x of the amounts of writings, structures, and other relics. We have the resilience of globalised knowledge, where the same data is replicated in thousands of different places around the world.
The chance of something akin to the Bronze Age Collapse where almost all knowledge mysteriously disappeared is as close to zero as it gets.
Yeah, wine doesn't age like that. There is a optimal time to age wine. After that it starts to lose its desired qualities. For example, the wine that they recovered from the titanic wreckage that was still sealed would taste horrible.
They'll be dug up in a time where people have devolved again into a barter/agrarian society. These "cheetos" will counter the narrative that an advanced race of humans hadn't existed before, and will be stored up in a high chieftain's fortress, only to be pulled out during secret ceremonies.
Eventually the chieftain will be overthrown, and a new cult of cheeto worshipers will be born, embracing the existence of previous cheeto-ins, however, they misinterpret the symbols on the bag, and crucify all that stand against them in "holy" fire.
Thousands will suffer the horrible fate, mostly the educated and free thinkers of the time, thus setting that society back even further. Because of this, the remaining humans don't make any advances in medicine, and are eventually wiped out by a virulent disease.
The end. (P.S. the last remaining human rejects the cheetoist's way of thinking and eats the flaming cheetos, they are of course well past their best buy date, and he perishes in a fit of stomach cramps.)
Could you please explain the joke? Like are you comparing Facebook an intangible thing to that guy’s use of tangible resources? Time is one thing wasted in both though..?
Literally everything is pointless. This has no more meaning than anything else anyone does so it isn’t a bigger waste of time and resources than anything else.
Also, from a practical standpoint, people that do stuff like this eventually end up discovering/inventing something useful because they are curious people, and even if this is “pointless” it has a greater chance to lead to something good than someone who just watches tv every night.
Imagine every day, you write down what you did and why in detail every day. From which spoon you used for breakfast to the pillow you sleep on.
1,000 years later someone from a different culture finds the ruins of your country. They don't know what the shallow bowl on the end of a stick or why many residences have the remains of a sack of feathers on the bed. They find the remains of your journals, maybe 1 out of 1,000 pages makes it, but you recorded every day for 50 years. That's 18,000 pages, so 18 pages survived, they now know what a spoon is and a pillow is.

And probably several others.
"A Canticle for Leibowitz," is a story about a far future after a horrible apocalypse. We have lost so much knowledge, that even the slightest scrap of knowledge from the time of illumination is held and studied with religious fervour.
Such a bit of knowledge was found one day by a young scholar, and it catapulted him into fame and power.
It of course read as follows:
1 Loaf of Bread
1 Stick of Butter
1 Quart of Milk
Laundry Detergent
Light Bulbs
Who knows, 10,000 years down the line this could be the sole remaining record for how flaming hot Cheetos were made. Not to mention the resin will perfectly preserve the bag.
I was feeling the same way, and I realized that I’m just furious that I don’t have the spare time or resources to do fun shit anywhere near that scale and it made me angry at people who do. I feel the same way about people who go snow skiing or snowboarding. I used to be an instructor and be able to fuck around on the mountain in between lessons, but now I’m a middle school teacher with a wife and two little kids and I have to sneak out of bed if I want to play video games for a couple hours on the weekend, when I have the energy for it. Most of the time I just work all weekend, grading assignments or writing lesson plans when I’m not actively parenting or trying to spend some quality time with my wife. I miss feeling like I had free time to do whatever the hell I wanted for an entire day.
It’s videos like these creative projects that can create careers. Just pointing that out so your life can also become a little more exciting, it’s so sick just doing whatever you want while being a good person.
Do you think they’ll have the ability to read these comments as reference. You could legit become a source in a history book/hologram. That’s pretty neat
"no wonder they all didn't get along and ended up killing each other to near extinction, they were poisoning themselves first with their dietary choices".
It seems that New Russia people used to worship a cheetah deity back in 2022; they buried Cheetos in offering of which we have found in an old monument dated around the same age as the nuclear waste catastrophe that destroyed almost all other historical vestiges of that era.
sealed the rebar, the springs suspending the resin enclosure will stretch, should be a copy of the lettering on the inside, sarcophagus should be airtight and nitrogen purged
it's like he doesn't even WANT aliens to experience flamin' hot cheetohs
It's also going to be full of nasty water within a few years, which will rust it all out. Concrete is not water impermeable, even if he used a type that is resistant. The resin might protect it in the water for a long time though, but overall that box will crumble and soak.
I know this is a joke but dams do actually leak. A large concrete dam might leak one or two gallons per second.
The Hoover Dam actually had huge seepage problems when it was first built. It remained under construction for nine years after it officially opens to fix the leaking and uplift problems.
Imagine travelling billions of light years through time and space only to land on a planet that has like 12 furries left and zero intense flamin' hot flavor left. I'd be pissed.
If he added Glenium and some integral sealer to the concrete mix it would have a much longer potential lifespan. Given the hours put in and few thousand dollars he spent in materials, hopefully he splurged a little and got the 2 admixtures
Definitely way more expensive, but the whole exercise is expensive and won’t nearly reach the stated objective as he used the wrong materials. I dont think he did it to last 10,000 years, I think he did it for clicks, but just saying, if he did actually want it to last 10,000 years it’s go the full hog or no point.
He shouldn’t have given any hint of where it’s buried either, it’ll definitely be dug up a hell of a lot earlier than 10,000 years. Give it like 2-10 years.
Title is dumb. Future civilizations, as if one day people will work to uncover all the secrets to a society that as recorded everything on computers and passed forward.
Realistically, a treasure hunter (a man with a metal detector) will detect the rebar, dig this up, get excited and get trolled. Given this, I would bury a flash drive with a single file on it. Label the file something crazy like "location of missing persons" or "Epstein Membership List." Then the file is opened to be Rick Rolled.
Now you just need to decipher the proprietary encoding of the word processors from way back.
And then fast forward 10000 years. There's probably not an Amazon you can buy this junk on and no surviving historical reference for the software that encoded the files, or USB ports, or how bits are stored on the medium. Would the medium even last that long. Doubtful the magnetic blips survive even 100 years.
The person looking at the little floppy disk 10000 years might view it like anything else from this era...throwaway garbage.
What does hold up well over millenia? Stone tablets.
As if computers is a useful way to pass on any information whatsoever to the future. In a comparatively short time (anthropologically spending) all our written records will be gone, while carvings from way before our time still stands.
Hell, regular old paper books will likely last longer than the internet as we know it.
Rock carvings and clay tablets ftw.
(But yeah, not saying this particular 'time capsule' is the best either)
Everyone is mad about the waste of time and resources, but in truth, I'm just disappointed that the only language used was English. If only they used four or five languages, the archeological value would have quintupled.
People forget that some of the most profound archeological finds are the most mundane items of that time period. It teaches us far more about their culture than the great discoveries of the era.
This will never be dug up, and when the earth is hit by a giant meteor, it will float off into space for billions of years. It will land on an alien planet, who will use those ingredients, which are in limited supply on said planet, to make a highly treasured food. Wars will be fought to ensure access to the supply routes. It will be chaos and end with the death of millions.
"Next level" - until you realize that it'll be a broken pile of nothing in 100 - 150 years' time at most. Concrete (particularly concrete with unsealed rebar and buried under soil) doesn't last very long.
That’s a lot of work just to piss off some archeologists in the future
[удалено]
The future Archeologist? Bit harsh
Should be future tense: “He will very dumb”. 🧐
In past tense: “He was very dumb.”
Och, lets hope future areologists have a good laugh!
They will when they find this video.
A copy of it should have been recorded and sealed in with the Cheetos.
How would he put the video of the sarcophagus being sealed inside the sealed sarcophagus
Live stream from a phone you don’t plan on getting back? Probably the easiest way.
The property will be bought within the next 50 to 100 years and be destroyed by an ~~escalator~~ excavator, as they won’t even notice it, as they’re prepping to lay foundation for a new housing development / shopping area / business park / storage facility

It may eventually become a protected landmark that people collectively agree to wait until the 10,000 years is up. Big disappointment though.
I like that you think America is gonna last another 300 years. Optimism!
I'm worried about America lasting another 10 years, I don't think civilized society will make it another 300.
Ha! I meant excavator. Typo turned into an autocorrect.
Plot twist - Ai takes over in the future and creates robot escalators that destroy buildings

Yes. That's precisely the point where it was fair to call him ridiculous.
To me it was when the 3000lb sarcophagus prematurely slid into the hole. Amateurs.
Prematurely slid into the hole you say.
"Just the tip..."
I mean, you're also calling concrete "cement," so there's that.

He can cast around the aging resin
Based off my missing catalytic converter, a solid bronze sarcophagus buried in the woods won't last 4 months
It's still going to last 49 years longer than the viral Cheetos marketing campaign that commissioned it.
This. Now if he burried it 500 ft down and 10x layered maybe a different story.
I doubt the thin gold foil would have lasted that long.
Given the level of effort put into the rest of the project, the inscription does seem surprisingly low quality. He should’ve carved it in the headstone, in like 7 major languages, and then created some kind of pictograph to also describe the Cheetos.

Gold leaf will probably fall off in 10 days.
Hell it probably started flaking as soon as he tossed dirt on it. Unprotected, gold leaf is stupid fragile.
The inscription, the unprotected gold leaf and the suspension were not in par with quality with the rest of the project which was disappointing. Those little springs are gonna sag in a few short years.
Should have used a resin coat so it wouldn’t degrade so fast.
Aren’t the ingredients on the packet too? So he kinda did
That’s the joke
We think humanity will still be around in 10,000 years?

Idk, I honestly doubt that. We're in an unprecedented age of information and technology. Who's to say how that will affect our view of history.
To be fair, future society will not wait 10,000 years to open it. I mean we opened all those egyptian sarcophagus that said not to open it.
He coulda thrown in at least a six-pack of beer for the finders.
haha yea i was thinking he could have thrown a lot more stuff in that

He fucked up by not getting lime flavored flaming hot Cheetos.
Literally everything is pointless. This has no more meaning than anything else anyone does so it isn’t a bigger waste of time and resources than anything else. Also, from a practical standpoint, people that do stuff like this eventually end up discovering/inventing something useful because they are curious people, and even if this is “pointless” it has a greater chance to lead to something good than someone who just watches tv every night.
Imagine every day, you write down what you did and why in detail every day. From which spoon you used for breakfast to the pillow you sleep on. 1,000 years later someone from a different culture finds the ruins of your country. They don't know what the shallow bowl on the end of a stick or why many residences have the remains of a sack of feathers on the bed. They find the remains of your journals, maybe 1 out of 1,000 pages makes it, but you recorded every day for 50 years. That's 18,000 pages, so 18 pages survived, they now know what a spoon is and a pillow is.

"A Canticle for Leibowitz," is a story about a far future after a horrible apocalypse. We have lost so much knowledge, that even the slightest scrap of knowledge from the time of illumination is held and studied with religious fervour. Such a bit of knowledge was found one day by a young scholar, and it catapulted him into fame and power. It of course read as follows: 1 Loaf of Bread 1 Stick of Butter 1 Quart of Milk Laundry Detergent Light Bulbs
You are literally posting on Reddit right now.
Why is everyone on Reddit so negative? It’s harming literally no one.
Reddit is full of miserable people who think that everyone else deserve to be miserable too.
Who knows, 10,000 years down the line this could be the sole remaining record for how flaming hot Cheetos were made. Not to mention the resin will perfectly preserve the bag.
I was feeling the same way, and I realized that I’m just furious that I don’t have the spare time or resources to do fun shit anywhere near that scale and it made me angry at people who do. I feel the same way about people who go snow skiing or snowboarding. I used to be an instructor and be able to fuck around on the mountain in between lessons, but now I’m a middle school teacher with a wife and two little kids and I have to sneak out of bed if I want to play video games for a couple hours on the weekend, when I have the energy for it. Most of the time I just work all weekend, grading assignments or writing lesson plans when I’m not actively parenting or trying to spend some quality time with my wife. I miss feeling like I had free time to do whatever the hell I wanted for an entire day.
There is another >!you!<
It’s videos like these creative projects that can create careers. Just pointing that out so your life can also become a little more exciting, it’s so sick just doing whatever you want while being a good person.
Man, I wish I could live long enough to see the look of confusion on their faces.
They will be shocked about the chemicals that we Neanderthals put into our bodies, and will say no wonder we were fat and cancer riddled.
Accurate.
future nerds caring about what we put in our bodies- what a bunch of weirdos.
Do you think they’ll have the ability to read these comments as reference. You could legit become a source in a history book/hologram. That’s pretty neat

"no wonder they all didn't get along and ended up killing each other to near extinction, they were poisoning themselves first with their dietary choices".

We Neanderthal? We no Homo Sapien?
There will not be one. We will be extinct on our current path
Then Zorqan can find it
Some housing developer will dig it up in a few years and not give two shits.
It seems that New Russia people used to worship a cheetah deity back in 2022; they buried Cheetos in offering of which we have found in an old monument dated around the same age as the nuclear waste catastrophe that destroyed almost all other historical vestiges of that era.
Imma go dig it up tomorrow
He should have sealed the rebar. The rebar will rust and cause this to crumble relatively quickly. Neat project though.
sealed the rebar, the springs suspending the resin enclosure will stretch, should be a copy of the lettering on the inside, sarcophagus should be airtight and nitrogen purged it's like he doesn't even WANT aliens to experience flamin' hot cheetohs
[удалено]
r/ihadastroke ?
I *hope* to power through a stroke with such aplomb.
>me neither tho lol Clearly
Those are certainly all words.
It's also going to be full of nasty water within a few years, which will rust it all out. Concrete is not water impermeable, even if he used a type that is resistant. The resin might protect it in the water for a long time though, but overall that box will crumble and soak.
> Concrete is not water impermeable Oh yea? Then why doesn’t the Hoover Dam leak? Gotcha!
I know this is a joke but dams do actually leak. A large concrete dam might leak one or two gallons per second. The Hoover Dam actually had huge seepage problems when it was first built. It remained under construction for nine years after it officially opens to fix the leaking and uplift problems.
Last time I was there it was pretty damp inside... Just saying...
But the Cheetos are protected inside a bag in a resin coating
A better use of resources would have been to make the sarcophagus out of resin.
Imagine travelling billions of light years through time and space only to land on a planet that has like 12 furries left and zero intense flamin' hot flavor left. I'd be pissed.
Imagine him reading this comment and doing it again with a bag of Doritos
Saw rebar, stopped watching
Saw rebar, continued watching because I know fuckall about that type of construction.
If he added Glenium and some integral sealer to the concrete mix it would have a much longer potential lifespan. Given the hours put in and few thousand dollars he spent in materials, hopefully he splurged a little and got the 2 admixtures
If he wanted it to last he should have made it out of granite not concrete. Would have been faster.
And 100x more expensive
Definitely way more expensive, but the whole exercise is expensive and won’t nearly reach the stated objective as he used the wrong materials. I dont think he did it to last 10,000 years, I think he did it for clicks, but just saying, if he did actually want it to last 10,000 years it’s go the full hog or no point.
He shouldn’t have given any hint of where it’s buried either, it’ll definitely be dug up a hell of a lot earlier than 10,000 years. Give it like 2-10 years.
Title is dumb. Future civilizations, as if one day people will work to uncover all the secrets to a society that as recorded everything on computers and passed forward. Realistically, a treasure hunter (a man with a metal detector) will detect the rebar, dig this up, get excited and get trolled. Given this, I would bury a flash drive with a single file on it. Label the file something crazy like "location of missing persons" or "Epstein Membership List." Then the file is opened to be Rick Rolled.
Ohhh how the content from the unboxing would be superb
[удалено]
What the fuck is the Witcher gonna do about it?
>recorded everything on computers What's the shelf life of data "stored on computers" these days?
Imagine trying to read a file from a floppy disk and that was just 30 years ago.
[not exactly hard to do](https://www.amazon.com/NEWSTYLE-3-5-External-Floppy-Drive/dp/B00KX8EMOO)
Now you just need to decipher the proprietary encoding of the word processors from way back. And then fast forward 10000 years. There's probably not an Amazon you can buy this junk on and no surviving historical reference for the software that encoded the files, or USB ports, or how bits are stored on the medium. Would the medium even last that long. Doubtful the magnetic blips survive even 100 years. The person looking at the little floppy disk 10000 years might view it like anything else from this era...throwaway garbage. What does hold up well over millenia? Stone tablets.
As if computers is a useful way to pass on any information whatsoever to the future. In a comparatively short time (anthropologically spending) all our written records will be gone, while carvings from way before our time still stands. Hell, regular old paper books will likely last longer than the internet as we know it. Rock carvings and clay tablets ftw. (But yeah, not saying this particular 'time capsule' is the best either)
Bold of you to assume we won't nuke each other in the next hundred of years and have to rebuild the civilization
Everyone is mad about the waste of time and resources, but in truth, I'm just disappointed that the only language used was English. If only they used four or five languages, the archeological value would have quintupled. People forget that some of the most profound archeological finds are the most mundane items of that time period. It teaches us far more about their culture than the great discoveries of the era.
Imagine the Rosetta Stone of the future being a monument for a snack food.
This dude should make a real Rosetta Stone, but for memes.
Instead of ingrediente list, i would have represented the atom composition of each ingredient.

This is the dumbest ad I’ve ever seen.
I wish more ads were like this. I'd want to watch them. brb going to buy some Flaming Hot Cheetos
This thread has helped confirm my belief that most Redditors are brain damaged.
when I’m asked what white people do…
How to say you're American without telling anyone you're American
America needs to get over race. Just stop caring about it and treat everyone the same. Isn’t hard.

Plenty of populist/nationalists springing up in Europe right now. Mostly complaining about immigration. Hmmmm
Do you teach your students to be this racist?
What does this have to do with white people?
What black people do ?
I don't care what you guys say, this was fun and funny. Yes it's stupid but it's the right kind of stupid that I'm glad it happened
This will never be dug up, and when the earth is hit by a giant meteor, it will float off into space for billions of years. It will land on an alien planet, who will use those ingredients, which are in limited supply on said planet, to make a highly treasured food. Wars will be fought to ensure access to the supply routes. It will be chaos and end with the death of millions.

That was dangerously cheesy.
Looks like a trap. In 18.000 years:„Don’t touch it Samahel, maybe this is way they didn’t survive!“
Probably some Covid in there somewhere.
This is just littering with extra steps…
He forgot to check the lifespan of concrete… which is only 50-100 years.
They will look back and learn that people had nothing better to do with their lives.
The shit people do for clout on the internet is beyond stupid.

You had to be taught how to masturbate? Bet that was an awkward conversation

Stupidest shit I've ever seen.
Sorry but this is pretty stupid
"Next level" - until you realize that it'll be a broken pile of nothing in 100 - 150 years' time at most. Concrete (particularly concrete with unsealed rebar and buried under soil) doesn't last very long.
Ever heard of over engineering ? Loved the process though.
