Introduction
Did you know that there are 1,500 homeless people living in tunnels below Las Vegas? Directly under the billion-dollar casinos, fancy night clubs and Michelin-star restaurants is a world that you wouldn’t believe is real. Until you go down there and see it for yourself. Drew Binsky teamed up with Rob from Shine a Light Foundation, who guided him down into this underground world to meet with local residents and hear their stories. [Taken from YT description]

Quotes
“I hate being hated by most everyone for what other people do. Not all homeless people are bad.”
“The tunnel is the best example of both addiction and homelessness.”
“I didn’t hear about them [the tunnels] until I was like 2-3 years homeless. I had relapsed, was homeless right away. I was living on the surface and when you’re homeless there’s no resources, you don’t know where anything is.”
“Dead. I don’t have anything to look forward to. I’m not suicidal or anything like that, every day is like the movie Groundhog Day, it’s repetitive every day. Anything you try to do to get ahead won’t work.”
