Be very careful, boys (and others) have been killed by collapsing sand holes. No matter how fast their friends tried to dig them out. The sand is not just cutting off your air, and filling your mouth and nose if you try to inhale, it's also a crushing weight on your lungs, much more than avalanche snow for instance. If you want to dig a hole deeper than your chest, do it in more-solid dirt, not sand.
A lot of beaches in Cali ban holes deeper than 2ft
Also don’t bury people even waste deep below the high tide water line. There are some frantic videos about that too if you go searching.
There's also a segment about that in an anthology horror movie where Leslie Nielsen gets revenge on his wife and her lover, Ted Danson.

Oh, that's a very good point!
This boy holes
I guess they paid the troll toll
Similarly, snow piles can be dangerous. Like the kind made by machines clearing parking lots that kids love to play on. Depending on how packed it is, there could be gaps a kid could fall in and get stuck, plus kids scream when they are having fun, so many adults might just filter out the sound of child screaming.
The ones at schools might be specifically made with kids playing on them in mind, but I doubt that's the case for ones in random parking lots, though maybe I'm just underestimating typical snow plough training.
The biggest danger with snow caves is that they absorb pretty much all sound, so you can’t hear the screaming if it eve partly collapses.
We always build our kid igloos without roofs for this reason.
