Pneumatic Drill

The Pneumatic Drill is a utility that digs directly downwards, and can also damage other worms if they comes into contact. The Pneumatic Drill is the same family with the Blowtorch as digging utilities. It will dig straightly down in some games, while it will scatter a bit the direction in others.

D-d-d-d-d-d-dig!

The Pneumatic Drill has three main uses. ''Be careful not to knock an enemy worm into the hole you are drilling. If it dies, it will probably be standing on your head. Don't forget, you can't retreat after using this weapon.'' The Pneumatic Drill can cause up to 30 points of damage.
 * 1) A way of digging through the earth.
 * 2) A jumping Aid.
 * 3) A weapon

''Oh dear, out of Bungee ropes and Parachutes? Not to worry, simply place yourself on the edge of the place next to where you want to go, now jump! Starting the Pneumatic Drill as soon as you jump you'll have approximately 4 seconds of travelling distance before your Worm goes into free-fall mode. As soon as you have landed where you want to be simply press the Space bar again to stop the drilling manoeuvre.''

Using the Pneumatic Drill
Press the Fire Button. Press it again to stop the digging.

Tips & Tricks

 * It is useful for protecting yourself from Armageddon by digging a very deep hole, but the Concrete Donkey can expose your worm to enemy attacks.
 * Grenades and bombs can be easily dropped into a hole, which is dangerous.
 * If your Jet pack doesn't have enough fuel to go further or using the Rope when falling down/sentry guns about to shoot, use the Pneumatic Drill when falling. This will prevent massive fall damage and is useful. It can also deal damage to other worms instead of your worm. To do this, use Jetpack/Rope then launch it. After that, press the Set Button and pick the Pneumatic Drill. When you fall, press the Fire Button to launch the Pneumatic Drill.
 * As described in the Wormopedia, the Pneumatic Drill can be used to briefly 'skate' across the landscape, shoving enemy worms out of your way as you go.
