Underground PVC Downspout Installation

This is my first self-made YouTube video. Yes, I recorded this from a phone. Yes, I should have rotated the phone while recording. Yes, I learned my lesson.

I had an unsightly, obtrusive downspout resting on the ground, so I decided to replace it with and underground system.

The elbow looks like it is up (inside) the pipe coming from downspout? The pipe coming from downspout should be glued and seated into the bell section of the elbow to ensure no leaking.

@Classicdrainage Since the system is not under pressure and it's not a particularly loose fitting, I didn't go to the trouble of sealing the joint water-tight.
