A recent ISU graduate's life was snuffed out in Boone Iowa July 9th, 2006, after tubing over a low head dam. These dams appear innocuous, but are in fact deadly. Don't underestimate the power of the currents below a low head dam.

  • The one "purpose" people use low head dams for is the fact that they allow the water to get air, and freshen.

  • step dams are the way to go

  • Every Year LowHead Dams All over the world take in over 320 victims and 6% survive.

  • Thanks for this video! I've seen this happen before and will now send this to families of both girl & boy scout troop members so they will learn before they drown.
