  • impressionnant ...et moi qui vais à Brehement sur loire chaque année,je n'imagine pas la haute-loire ainsi puissante ....

  • Impressionnant !

  • @JetMechMA you're retarded

  • DAM IT!

  • @DYLONayms Uh huh, yeah sure. ....I'm not buying it. If you are an engineer, then you are familiar with the flooding at Glen Canyon and Hoover dam during the '80s. And I'm sure you're familiar with the titanic erosion that took place in the spillways, which was a surprise to the engineers.....best laid plans and all. They almost lost both dams.

  • @JetMechMA That's the first time you see that kind of thing ? That's not the first time that happens. And the dam is still there. Every modern dam are made taking into account floods, surrounding rock stability and strength. Moreover, routine deformation monitoring and monitoring of seepage from drains in and around dams are made to anticipate any problems.

  • @DYLONayms Oh yeah sure I trust it....to fail. Just LOOK at it. The surrounding rock the dam is built into gets WIDER after the dam, not narrower. With the water at THAT level, you can't be sure what will happen to the dam. That's a disaster waiting to happen. It's quite an amazing video.

  • @JetMechMA You absolutely don't understand one thing about engineering mate. This dam is safe, just trust us. Or you can go in an engineering school for 5 years and finally have a better idea of what is going on.

  • @P3375P If you are an engineer I'll have to take your word for it, after all, you've got the numbers to back it up. BUT....would you drive your family across that dam in THAT condition?

  • @JetMechMA The Dam's burden is not dependant on the flow, it just depends on the height, the gravity and water density. So the dam is absolutly safe

    The damage cause by such a huge flow is downstream
