A second video of sewer spelunkers emerging from a Brooklyn manhole wearing headlamps and carrying shovels has surfaced — but there remain no answers on what they are doing down there.

Men with flashlights and shovels continue to pour out of the bowels of Brooklyn — with one nail-biting moment showing a man narrowly avoiding being run over by a car while emerging from the sewer, according to the video.

Cops said the crew removed the sewer lid at the intersection around 1 a.m. Friday and exited a little less than three hours later.
Another incident of the weirdos entering and exiting a manhole occurred just five miles away in Gravesend at the intersection of McDonald Avenue and Colin Place around 2 a.m. the same day, police said.
Video obtained by The Post of that incident shows a car dropping off seven men loaded with flashlights and unidentifiable equipment near the manhole.

Once all the men were inside, the driver of the vehicle got down, slammed the manhole cover shut and drove away.
Cops said they aren’t sure why either group of men was sneaking into the manholes, or if the incidents were related.
The NYPD said it swept both sewers to ensure their safety. An investigation is ongoing.
