The title tells you how long, the image tells you how deep, and neither repeats the other. Fifty hours is endurance, 500 feet means no easy way out. Together they build a trap the small figure in the huge tunnel makes real.
How the packaging works
Title
The title carries the time, 50 hours locked away.
Thumbnail
The thumbnail carries the depth, 500 feet of concrete tunnel around a small figure.
