    This is attained near the end of Chapter 6: Down in a Hole upon reaching the excavator. First use the coal bucket (wooden box) to create a bridge/trampoline on the left side. Use this to get up to the knob on the front of the excavator. Tie a knot. Jump back down and untie all the knots in the bucket, and move it all the way to the right (under the arm). Now get to the top of the excavator, inside the cockpit, lower the seat, and pull the lever. The arm will swing down, destroying the coal bucket and moving the rocks as part of level progress. There will be a secret remaining in the place of the box. The technique can be seen in the following video at 9:23:

    Upon completion of the level, you will also receive:

    GTA WARRIORAnyone not had this unlock?
    I have smashed the crate with the excavator, collected the secret and finished the level. No achievement, even though the picture frame to start the level shows 5 of 5 secrets found. I have tried playing the level again and going through the motions, obviously the secret was gone second time round but still nothing. Annoying.

    EDIT: I ended up deleting my game data everywhere, uninstalled the game, reinstalled it and played through the game again and this time it unlocked no problem.

    At the end of Chapter 6: Down in a Hole, you'll find an excavator (of all things) and a box of coal. The collectible is found in the box of coal.

    After using the box to climb up the front of the excavator, climb down the backside of the excavator and push the box up against the pile of dirt to the right. Then, use the yarn that you leave everywhere to climb back up the excavator and pull the lever in the cockpit. The arm will break open the box of coal leaving behind the lovely collectible.

    Let me know if you have any questions!
