Dangers of the Welland Canal

[ManhattanProjectsInc]

thanks now I know not to swim there or near canals and other waterways only ponds and things that dont have vortexs

[SuperTabitha22]

Looks a very interesting place. I'd love to pay it a visit if I am ever in the States.

An excellent and very informative video guys.

Many thanks.

[nightienite]

@SuperTabitha22 You can see the Welland Waterways, as it is in Ontario. Canada, not the States. Welland is not far from Niagara Falls.  Hope you get to see it.

Dress up as Elvis,use Condoms,have a Designated Driver when you go out Drinking. But don't Swim in this Canal and dont dress up like Lady Gaga.

[ChristewieTV]

[tazdevilg123]

[PivoTMarshaL]

"These waters suck...literally." Just like your mom. LOL.

[erixmix]

Stay up late, take lots of drugs, bareback cuban hookers and smuggle arms across borders all you want BUT *DO NOT* FUCKING SWIM HERE.

[ptejpizza]

I grew up in Thorold, several people really have been killed there over the years. Teens, adults, kids... You name it. I've watched people swimming in all the different areas and doing all kinds of retarded things. I've watched people dive off the canals into the water below when it's low due to having just lowered a ship. They don't let people do that now days. It's a little more secure these days thankfully. I only swam in the "Dunes" area and old canals that are inactive...

[CCFROMAN]

rofl, right here, just 15 ft away from where i'm sitting........rofl

[Shreddex101]

Seriously, that thing is so dirty.

[wildniagara]

Sure would like to see this reuploaded with a better bit rate.

[drezulu2000]

Damn, I used to swim in the old canal near a boat launch back in the day.

[TheImperialConqueror]

I too wud like its exact location pls!

message me PLS! Thats looks really interesting!

[bewareofthevlaplayer]

[knowpassword]

I would have said "listen" to the signs, rather than "obey" the signs. and the kids aren't naturals..

[alyisiiiswird]

sceary

[spizec]

[niall2223]

i think i shit myself when i saw the life size dummy go down the whirlpool :o!!

[needlenitz18]

and use condoms kids!

[DevynYoshi]

Even if you think the acting is bad, there NOT making it up, It's true. These currents can sweep away swimmers AND boats.

[jmr1068204]

@DevynYoshi Actually, for a fact-only video, I don't see how people could say any of the "acting" is bad. It's more of a documentary...they're not changing voices or anything, or trying to be in character. They're just being typical guys their age....

[Saaiman1]

@DevynYoshi

[nightienite]

@fathippy2 Glad you and Saaiman are not my Kids, as I would smack your ass, there is no need to write stuff that has nothing to do with the Video.  Go on now be yourself.. write to me from your gutter.

[GCalla420]

holy shit! thats the super 7 draw that i won my 5 million on

[pikconsse]

ça a l air super intéressant mais comme d hab c est en anglais.... donc comme je comprend pas un mot je suis privé de compréhension sur le danger de ces valves (bien que je comprend le principe et le danger) j aurai bien aimé en savoir plus sur ces valves d aspiration.

[pqwilrj]

Wow, those guys are FLAMING faggots. And they're terrible actors too. I thought gay people were supposed to be talented at all that artsy stuff.

[Makemyday0126]

I bet these two went bumming each other after, the sexual tension between them is electric...rofl.

[elykat]

This is a very good well made video, I hope it saves someone from swimming in the dangerous spots.

[elykat]

it went 400ft underground, struck a wall of railway beams them spilled out onto a reservoir, just like the 12 year old kid about 12 years ago.....

[kossfringe]

@elykat i remember that .. i used to swim in there when i was 10-12 prolly about the same time that kid drowned stopped doing it after that

[AJFan1234]

"these waters suck... literally"

WHO WRITES THIS STUFF?! lol

[BNLFan21]

I have it on very good authority that that line was actually adlibbed. No writing required.

[AJFan1234]

awesome!

[superniitendofan64]

thats y i dont swim or jump off the bridge into the canal

[TodA51]

I don't even jump into Lake Erie >.> God knows Buffalo's canal is just a river of rust... I can't believe kids swim in that place.

Especially after we found out what happens after a heavy rain O_O YUCK!

[kossfringe]

@TodA51 its not buffalo ... its in St Catrharines / Thorold / Welland Ontario thats why its called the Welland Canal

[TodA51]

@kossfringe

Thank you Koss for that astute assessment. However I clearly referenced that I was speaking of Buffalo's canal, not the welland canal. If it means anything, my Grandfather & Grandmother (who lived in St. Cathy's, but now lives in North Bay) took me to see the ships all the time. :-] However, as I said - you guys have inviting swimming holes. Lake Erie is just a cesspool and our canals are just pure unadulterated evil. They aren't even inviting, just... evil.

[jmr1068204]

Well...it was probably shot out of a pipe like the one at :56-:57 into another canal or a resorvoir. I'm sure it was likely quite mangled in the process of going through the pipe, though.

[dirtbikelover7]

wow this is old i ride this all the time in the summer

[tillmanshoobergoober]

scary
