Tunnel Girl is an American TikToker known for her content surrounding the excavation of a tunnel under her house.

Biography The channel's creator, a woman named Kala, studied business and finance in college.

She bought a two-story home in Herndon, Virginia in 2010. She previously built a two-story addition at the back of her house, with a basement and subbasement underneath. To prepare, she studied FEMA shelter guidelines and a civil engineering book titled Rock Mass Classification — A Practical Approach in Civil Engineering.

Kala's followers initially consisted primarily of electricians and mining and civil engineers. In late December, concern continued to spread online regarding whether the tunnel could negatively impact Kala's neighbors. On December 31, Kala announced on her TikTok that town officials had told her to halt construction. She reassured her viewers that she would cooperate with a mandatory evaluation by an engineer, and would continue to pursue proper permitting.
