What happens here

The video introduces the complexity of building retaining walls and explains common issues such as walls falling forward due to improper construction. The speaker emphasizes that a very deep and stable base is the number one requirement for preventing such failures. While not explicitly shown, this implies significant excavation and preparation of the ground before laying any blocks.

Goal: Grash the complexities and common failures of retaining walls to appreciate proper construction methods.
