Construction works in Araras, Brazil were faced with this dilemma as they worked away in a building. They began to hear strange sounds coming from within a wall and carefully used the tools that they had on hand to see where they were coming from.

When they did, they realized that it was coming from a drain pipe that was under the ground. Reverberation had caused the noises to echo across the foundations and seep through the wall.

They had no idea what could be in the pipe, but they knew they had to help. So using their tools, they very carefully drilled and broke into the cement.
