Here’s a summary of the provided text:
Mick, a man claiming to be one of the greatest “underground men of all time,” feels he was unfairly treated by the Guinness Book of Records. He spent 61 days buried underground, an event that garnered massive international attention (with around 100,000 spectators and coverage in America, australia, and Germany). He believes the Guinness Book should have recognized his achievement.
He’s also challenging another burial artist, Tim Hayes from Cobh, Co. Cork, who apparently downplayed Mick’s record by comparing his coffin to a bungalow. Hayes himself spent 100 hours underground in 1967.
A documentary about Mick’s story, featuring an interview with his daughter Mary Meaney, will air on TG4 this month. The story is largely unknown, and the documentary aims to bring it to light.
