Man cave
At 14, after a petty argument with his parents over his clothing choice, Canto found solace in his grandfather's pickaxe and began digging a small hole in his garden.
According to Mirror, Canto's parents had refused to let him wear a tracksuit to go to the local village.

Over eight years, what started as a small hole in the ground has transformed into a fully furnished underground cave with a living room and bedroom.
Canto has outfitted his unconventional hideout with modern amenities such as Wi-Fi, speakers, and a coal stove, making it a fully habitable living space.
"In the last two years," shared Andres, "I have extended the main room by lowering the ground level by another half metre."
He went on to explain:
"I also started to dig a new tunnel 0.5 metres deeper to start a new room."
Despite being an actor and studying at the Superior School of Dramatic Arts in Murcia, Andres still finds time to work on his cave project on weekends.
"During the pandemic, I made great strides in the cave," he revealed, "but now I have less time to spend on it. I only dedicate four hours a week to dig the cave."
Man builds an underground bar
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a man had built a bar underground with leftover materials.
Daily Mail reported that the structure is based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire and also serves as a cinema where he watches and hosts movie nights. The 41-year-old was inspired by the Batcave from Batman and filled the space with black furniture.
“It's something outside the box and also has the wow factor because it's not something you see all the time. After originally joking with the builder I wanted an underground bar, one week later they started digging out the hole in the ground,'' the man said.
