TikTok video goes viral as man finds a grim discovery in his back garden
A man who dug up a mysterious-looking concrete box in his garden immediately regretted his decision after a sickening stench came from the box he uncovered.
He took to TikTok to share what he found in his garden.
During the video, the user says : “I was doing some gardening in my back yard today and I uncovered some sort of crazy, secret concrete box in the ground.
“I found a handle after digging for a while, then after digging for a bit more I uncovered a second handle.
“I kept going until I got it cleaned to the point where I could start to attempt to lift it up.
“But when I tried it was a little heavy so then I brought in the big guns. And you’ll never believe what I found.”
“My septic tank.”

The man then films himself covering his nose and retching, as he turns away from his surprising discovery.
He has over 123,000 followers on TikTok and the video has been viewed 6 million times.
Speaking in a later video after the big reveal, the man claims that he did not know he had a septic tank, despite living in the house for six years.
A plumber asked him how long it had been since the septic tank had been emptied after the man said that he was experiencing plumbing issues in his house.
During the explainer video, the man said he knew there was a septic tank in his garden, but he did not know that the house was still on a septic system.
@tonyhuismanlp Reply to @hoodietvent Thought we was on city sewage. Hopefully this answers everyone's questions from the previous video ##septic @wellandsepticlife
