  • The reason it takes off at 36 min is because the exit is lower making a vacuum siphon. Just found out what this man made pond was built for, it for cutting out ice blocks before electric refrigerators. This was for the real ice boxes that used a block of ice to keep food fresh
    The excitement starts after 19:00 .I was fighting lots of water pressure but I found it easier to just let the leaves pass through by scraping mt feet and the rake back and forth. As I was raking it created an undertow moving crap from the bottom of the lake over instantly and that is what took so long, I gave this my own inspection 5 months back and the grate is safe but the underground pipe is not and It is in the process of failing. The rock I found may have just fallen in. This time I got before and after video of the end. A shovel would not work well for this job so stop commenting that
    I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
    I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
    Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards.

    The leaves,
    The sticks,
    Will find another home.
    No longer will they clogg this drain.
    Blood, sweat, pain.
    While millions smirk
    The warrior works
    Not for treasure nor for fame.
    He is post 10
    His rake his weapon
    His rake his friend.
    Enemy of the storm
    Clearer of the culvert

    And salute the king
    Of drains, and cloggs,
    We approve, we sing.
