I joke with my wife that our TV will still be standing even if our building collapses. I put so many goddamn heavy-duty anchors into my wall because I wasn't able to find more than one stud. +3 years later and the TV is snug against the wall, yolo

For folks wanting to replicate, do try and only do it on walls that aren't shared with a neighbor, because these holes really start hurting the soundproofing (if any!), especially if its a TV being hanged there.

What kind of anchors did you use?

And what kind of mount?

I used heavy duty snap toggles to anchor the bolts I couldn’t find ways to mount directly or indirectly to the stud. I have zero experience with carpentry and a/v installation. Your results may vary. You may end up homeless and/or divorced. But at least you’ll be able to watch dragons set things on fire on HBO I guess.
