Dig Deep
Simply dig down till you hit bedrock. You'll know when you reach the bottom by the tan and blue looking floor. It will also make a distinct sound when you hit it like when you hit land claimed territory.

The easiest method to do this is with an auger and just keep it aimed straight down. Also bring plenty of wood for frames or ladders to get yourself back out.
Dirty Larry
For this achievement you will need the .44 Magnum and enough magnum rounds to kill 44 zombies. It's pretty easy to get if you take your time and aim for the head.
I'm not sure if dogs, wasps, or the zombie bears count towards this achievement.
Evil Knievel
Most people probably get this one by accident... all you need to do is break your leg. A sprain will not do as it must be broken. If you sprain your leg, falling again should break it and grant you the achievement.
On Top of the World
Similar to the Dig Deep achievement, for this one all you need to do is reach the top of the game world. There is an invisible ceiling that you can get to where you can't build or place any blocks to get higher. Once you reach this point the achievement should unlock.

The easiest way to do this is bring a stack of about 200-300 wood frames. How many you actually need will depend on your altitude when you start. Place a wood frame on the ground, jump on top of it and then keep jumping straight up while placing more frames below you. You'll keep going way up into the air (check out the view with the new distant terrain) and eventually unlock the achievement.

Make sure there are no zombies around when you do this. If they break a block while you are way up in the air you will fall and possibly die.
The Polar Bare Club
This is probably the trickiest of the hidden achievements but not that hard. What you need to do is get your temperature down to 0 while you are totally naked and 100% wet.

The easiest way to do this is find a snow biome that has a high elevation. The higher your altitude the colder it gets. Find a body of water that is deep enough for you to fully submerge in. Then strip down of all clothing, sit in the water and wait for your temperature to drop. To speed up this process you can wear clothing with a negative thermal value and drink either red tea or Yucca juice as both will help lower your temperature.

Getting your temperature down this low is dangerous and could result in death, be prepared to put warm clothing on and sit next to a fire as soon as you get the achievement.

Neat... I guess zombie dog still counts as zombie.
Thanks for sharing!

I got the Dirty Larry achievement by killing a dog. So I assume any creature counts towards the achievement

Does the Dirty Harry unlock only with the regular magnum, or will a Desert Vulture magnum also work?

Crazy how all it took to get the last achievement was jumping naked in some cold ass water lol

@rook not entirely true... I've been doing a playthrough on darkness falls and I've received quite a few of the achievements. EAC turned off, using Modded game.
Maybe I am just lucky? :/

Also, in 21.2, anything living counts for the kills on Dirty Larry. Even chickens. Only requirement is to use 44 Magnum.

As of 21.2, The Polar Bare Club does not require 0 temperature. According to code it's just: underwater, naked, in snow biome. Confirmed it just now myself. Got it instantly.
