    What surprises me is that good company was allowed to build such a tunnel without proper safety infrastructure. Aren’t there regulations they should have followed?

      From what I’ve heard, they don’t need to follow the usual regulations, because it’s built on private property.

      Not sure if that’s the whole truth, though. As a European I feel like your private property death trap shouldn’t have public access, similar to how amusement parks need to follow regulations even though they’re built on private property.
      But yeah, that could be different in the US or they simply lobbied enough until they’re allowed to kill people. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
