Sounds around the time the U.S Housing market was supposed to had burst and crash??? What did THEY use as a distraction around the world those months??

It wasn't a water hammer, the turbine was old, it was worn out by turbine vibrations, 8 bolts were badly cracked, 6 nuts were missing. It simply fell apart.

@kj762aa : You have no understanding of how a hydro plant works do you? Do you understand that the units weight millions upon millions of pounds and the pressure put onto the turbine from the water is unbelievably intense. The main reason it failed was from over usage, mis-alignment of the rotor and turbine shaft, and not being maintained correctly. Exposed pipes are common in hydro depending on dam design, and there is millions of gallons of oil in hydro plants.

@getsafe1212 Congratulations, you just turned Atheism into everything you despise about religion(closed-mindedness, persecution of those who don't believe what you believe). Was that your intention? Try Atheism 3.0, you know: live and let live and all that.

Hidraulic impact? What the fuck its a fucking dam. How does it fucking explode. Chernobyl I can understand, but this?. Exposing the pipes was a fail too. and Oil? fail.
