Best to ignore him.

Just point at it with your index finger, skip the coathanger & transistor trick unless you're doing a demo for a sucker.

Here is an excerpt from the Super Pit website;


How big is the Super Pit and how big will it get?
The current Super Pit is approximately 3.5km long, 1.5km wide and 360 metres deep. The approved long-term pit development will see the Super Pit grow to be approximately 3.9km long, 1.6km wide and exceed 500 metres in depth. KCGMs geologists continue to drill exploration holes and look for every opportunity to add to the mine ore reserves and life of the operation.
