Drilling Holes in Long Wood Dowels...without a drill

This is how to drill a hole in the center of long wood dowels or boards without a drill. I made it even more difficult by drilling a large diameter hole with thin wood walls in the dowel. What’s even crazier is that I didn’t use a long drill bit and didn’t make a fancy woodworking jig.
