I recognize the Plato shadows on a wall ref and someone commented about Sisyphus. Obviously, Saddam was in a hole. What's the rest? Looks like pick-axe people are part of a 2d video game. I don't get anything other than what I've described.

Grey downward facing body is from nutty putty cave
That story is horrifying
The pick-axe is a "motivational" meme about don't giving up, because the diamonds could be just around.
Sisyphus I'll give you $5 to roll that rock back down right now
aaaaanyway, ladies and gentlemen- we got him.
I swear I've seen the grey body on the right somewhere, can't place it
Nutty Putty Cave
That's the only thing that makes me not want to reshare this image. What a horrible way to die.
My wife shared me a meme from that image and I asked her if she knew its origin. Let me tell you, she got really sand and guilty about it.
Gritty or fine?
Coarse
and rough
I don't remember the name but it's a depiction of a cave explorer that got stuck like that and died. While there was help at the place to try and get him out they couldn't. If I remember correctly he's still stuck in that same place.
From the Wikipedia article:
Rescuers concluded that it would be too dangerous to attempt to retrieve his body; the landowner and Jones' family came to an agreement that the cave would be permanently closed, with the body sealed inside, as a memorial to Jones. Explosives were used to collapse the ceiling close to Jones' body, and the entrance hole was filled with concrete to prevent further access.
