The stupidity of these drivers matches the arrogance of the blue defender driver.
They never close these roads off water in the Engine means a rebuild or new this Ford claims hundreds of cars amazing how the public just watch knowing what's going to happen they let them drive in & after ask if they need towing who is charging for this, they all start giving advise why not shout & tell them it's to deep
But you've also got to question the stupidity of the onlookers who don't seem to be discouraging the drivers from attempting to cross, or the local authorities who aren't closing off a road that's clearly impassable to the majority of vehicles.
@@mandydandy3738 They don't shout & tell them it's too deep because there's money to be made via youtube I imagine. I'd be interested to hear from the poster about this but of course everyone's schtum right? Why spoil a possible money spinner. Same with the tow-outs I imagine.
We think we have somehow reached the pinnacle of intelligence when really we are just driven to try stupid things and we learn the hard way, that's how we got where we are, not by being wise, being stupid enough to do stupid things and when it comes off claim we are geniuses when it doesn't we get to laugh and video has made it all better😂😂😂
are you all seriously demonising the onlookers? theres nothing more than stupid people driving through something they shouldnt, not knowing the limitations of their own vehicles.
when a lorry goes under a bridge that theyre too tall for, ripping their roof off. do you blame the onlookers, the council or the person driving the vehicle?
this ford for the most part is very passable in any average car, after heavy rain its obviously going to be deeper. hence why there are water markers on the bridge so drivers know the depth, before they enter. its only the stupidity of people not thinking, or not knowing how to drive properly.
My wife came in to the living room and told me I was weird for watching these videos. Half an hour later she's sat down watching them with me. Love it.
DON'T..... the hours I've spent watching these vids, car crash/spash? TV.
I absolutely love those situations when someone catches you watching some silly stuff, they tell you it's silly and a waste of time and you know it's true...but then they fall into that rabbit hole and stay in there with you 😁
She did the same with me last week. 👀😂😁😁
@@thepharcyde5239 Yeah sure 🙄
That is Love.
I just can’t believe how many people think they can make it through, it’s mind boggling 😮
entertainment for all.
Perhaps it would have been reasonable to set up a sign or something warning them that the water level is too high.
The impatient blue Land Rover missing the road ahead and almost setting off down the river was one of the highlights for me.
He was doing it just to be a nob, I suspect he is local to the area. as fo being impatient, no, he was just being a scummy bully.
The strangest part of these videos is how the drivers never seem to be too bothered that they've just drowned their cars
They don’t initially realise they have just totalled their vehicle: otherwise they wouldn’t have attempted the crossing. After that it’s just saving face…
Nearly made me wonder if they have some free car program for flooded cars. It’s like they do it for fun!
Omg I know! Everyone standing around with their cell phones out watching them make an idiot of themselves. And there like "nah it's fine. This happens to everyone all the time. Totally normal."
69 LIKES
That's up until they see the repair bill
Daily reminder that the alternative route is only 3 miles longer and doesn't require going through this
lol, they make it seem like its the only crossing in 50 miles
I've been wondering! thanks mate!
FFS they act like they’re escaping tyranny by going this way and they have no other option
@@Syazi Same here. I just don't understand how so many cars are getting so badly damaged and yet these drivers are all risking this route. Aren't there huge signs on the road warning these drivers?
Imagine going out for the day and deciding to go and hope people break down flood their cars and cost 100s of pounds! Dregs of society
How could anyone think they'd get through it this deep?
But many did….😂
Many did , it's not winning that counts it's the taking part
The "BEST" I have seen was a small car reverse all the way through. Way to go!!
I feel bad for the Kia driver. The poor guy was hesitant about going in but it shows how arrogant people are to hear them shouting "Keep going" and that blue defender basically forcing him to go through was horrible aswell.
It's a lesson in it being time to grow up and stop blindly doing what other people tell him to. The only smart move was to stop and start backing up, blue defender be damned.
Exactly! Same thoughts... :/
That blue defender is probaly what got the water into their intake!
Hope he learned his lesson. You gotta stand up for yourself and don't let yourself be bullied or persuaded by other ppls opinions.
if you let other people make decisions for you. you shouldn't have a license.
Old mate in the blue sh!tbox 4wd earned himself at least 4 punches to the throat. What an absolute flog of a human they are.
Yeh proper nob head 👌
@iamdedoge
He seemed American 😅
If i saw those crowds recording i'd definitely think twice about wading through that
Vehicle in the distance at 00:45 sees man climbing out of red car and decides to turn around. Priceless.
The mood is getting real nasty there lately. The driver of that blue defender....
Someone is going to get hurt, either through stupidity or through pissing the wrong person off. This isn't about "fails" anymore, it's about pressuring people to make a bad decision for entertainment.
@@DOSeater That farmer for starters. He was marching about like Herr Kommandant and people were crapping themselves.
What they should do is fit a camera to monitor the weather and water levels. When it gets too high, send a marked police car as a visual deterrent. Driving through floodwater in that fashion is actually illegal and the police have busted people here before.
Failing to stop for police is a criminal offence by itself, no matter what else you have or haven't done.
@@DOSeater "pressuring" lmao, as if they aren't capable of thinking for themselves and acting appropriately if anyone else is even stood in the general vicinity.
@@halfbakedproductions7887 you must not have seen the "police chase" videos from this area then...
@@halfbakedproductions7887 yeah that farmer - to me he looked more like winston churchill marching about
The blue defender driver is a tool. The person telling the kia not to stop is a tool. The Taxi driver has no mechanical sympathy. The woman in the fiat is a legend. And there is at least one bloke not getting any for a while.
Tool? what do you mean?
tbf the advice not to stop is spot on once youve commited that far to going through the ford, because the moment you stop forward momentum, the bow wave just rolls back, swamps the air intake & engine and its game over, and you cant reverse if the exhaust is under water already. the moment the car starts to float its open the doors time, they wont seal properly anyway so you have to accept getting wet at that stage and you might just make it through.
@@awavey gg bf
No sympathy what so ever
@@awavey bollix, he easily could of reversed out of there. The guy egging him on was an absolute scumbag
Gosh that water looks so much deeper than usual, no way I would go through that 😮
When I want to feel better about myself I watch these videos.
I think we've finally crossed the line of "this is funny to watch slapstick humour "to laughing at the misfortune of others".
Yeah... And...
I can't look away. The people urging people through at the side are a different breed though. But as you can tell from their empty days, they are unlikely to be contributors to society in any ways.
You have to deliberately choose this route (check out Google maps). Those driving through have made a conscious decision to drive through, and it has been raining heavily for the last few days.
@@landmannmike AH.... wondered that since I started watching these "snuf-vids-for-petrolheads".cheers
It's only misfortune if it can't be avoided.
I really can't believe people are stupid enough to try going through that.
Couldn't agree more absolute idiots but it's fun to watch
Bloody pomys
There's a reason shampoo comes with instructions
I can’t believe how many stupid people there are!
if they can get through, they apparently save 10 mins of the travel time
Больше всех меня удивила дама на Фиате. Её будто ангелы несли :)
2:15 Мало того, что двигатель теперь ремонтировать, проводку с датчиками перебирать, салон просушивать, так еще и всю бочину расцарапали😂😂😂 молодцы👍😄 в общем, эту машину проще продать, чем возиться с ней))
Только я понять не могу. Вот зачем они туда заезжают?? Видно же, что глубоко. И вообще, почему администрация не может сделать нормальную переправу?) Там менее, чем за месяц, можно все сделать и люди будут нормально ездить
I hope it'll be on the channel when the guy wrecks his blue defender, because with this attiude it ain't gonna last.
People have already started vandalism there, with the lake gates being opened. Goodness knows what next, some clown dropping a load of home-made caltrops in the water?
Probably best to not start suggesting things as a what next.....
@@MrSonicAdvance I bet google searches for 'Caltrops' peaked today, haha, beyond land mines, those bloody things are quite possibly the most horrific thing that humans have ever invented, especially for their originally intended use.
@@Tekwyzard Truly horrific in their original implementation, but when deployed for taking the smug smirk off blue Land Rover Defender owners, I'm less troubled.
@@MrSonicAdvance Periscopes have been spotted once or twice, my money is on North Korea.
Looks like the KIA was doing fine, until that blue defender decided to ruin his day...
Kia was stuck.
No, it's 90cm deep at that point. Normal vehicles can't pass. At that point most cars even start to float, losing traction with the ground. Even that one Landrover got a bit of white smoke afterwards, despite having a snorkel air inlet. It's stupid to drive through this deep of water.
That sorento had muddies...
You can still see it running after he stopped.
He only bogged out because the muppet in the landy flooded his engine...
really that landy driver should be exchanging insurance details for excessive water damage and driving recklessly...
That model Kia Sorento I believe had a very low wading depth rating at about 250mm. It was never going to make it.
@@electrikoptik I've seen very small city cars go through deep water too fast, yes by luck they made it so the kia still had chance till the defender steeped in. at the very least careless or antisocial driving as most normal people would allow another car to reverse not move closer rev engine (bully) and / or wait for the person to cross before entering water. defender driver just a c**t in my eyes, same with a lot drivers with the land-rover badge it seems, exp in the city
@1:04 “You can’t park THERE mate!” 🤣🤣
I RESPECT THE COURAGE OF THE FIAT 500 OWNER!
honestly screw the people pressuring the kia to go in there, especially the blue land rover and the guy saying "the worst thing you can do is stop". Y'all are the reason that driver just had his day and his wallet ruined, all because of peer pressure as well as the blue land rover quite literally just not giving him space to reverse (which i'm pretty certain he would've done otherwise) AND then proceeding to flood the kia even more.
They meant after he went in though. Once he went in, there were no point in stopping
@@vastjonea it's still better to stop and turn back, even when you're halfway.
If you realize there's a good chance your vehicle won't make it, it's best to just stop and drive out backwards
Getting the intake a little wet and reversing out is a whole lot better than fully commiting to the forgone conclusion of submerging the engine.
The landy driver would have moved if it were me wanting to reverse
Absolutely, that driver maybe just lost one to two years of his savings because of these trashy humans.
The blue Jeep driver gotta be at the bottom end of human intelligence. Edit: D E F E N D E R.
Both are known to be tow truck drivers best friends here in Australia.
Hello! Can you add a time stamp?
Do you mean the Land Rover Defender?
@@A_Man_Who_Says_Hello8538 at 06:00 If I were the driver of the SUV I might be inclined to report the 4wd, which hammered me with the wake, potentially causing me to stall, to the police, after consulting a lawyer... What a complete a453hat
@@DougieL thank you!
Also i wouldn't have taken it that far...
LMFAO 🤣🤣🤣 that's everyone who drives through deep water
Agreed.
I've watched three of your vids, and subsequently subscribed, I was waiting fir a floater, and here it is!!!
Какие добрые заботливые люди проживают в Британии 😀
The toughness of that Fiat is quite impressive.
The intake is probably at the height of the hood line as air is actually designed to flow under there. Water didn't reach that high :)
I guess it's an EV
@@daniel_960_ Definitely not, it's a 1.3 litre petrol. It surprised me too though, I thought it was dead until she reversed out. I don't like Fiat 500s but I have to give it credit for that.
Daniel, it’s a pre face lift these weren’t electric.

it cant be that deep the water was only half way up the side of that duck!

Yes it was entertainment for them.@@almota7
"Worst thing you can do is stop" No. Worst thing is to try and make a car swim. I wonder if their insurance pays out?
Well I think the insurance shouldn't pay out, for people's stupidity.
In germany they wouldn´t. Simplyfied there is a principle. "When the water get's to the car, the insurnce pays.. If the car get's to the water the insurance won't pay."
A standard insurance policy does not cover engine damage. Many does not cover flooding. In particular not when the vehicle was deliberately driven into a river.
No, most won't get any insurance payout.

This is the best one yet. The guy standing on his car and trying to pull it had the same time had me in tears. All this while his female partner was actually standing in the water trying to stop it hitting the wall.

In Korea, there would have been a flood of complaints in just one day, and a new bridge would have been built immediately within two to three months.
But I really don't understand why officials in that town in England aren't addressing complaints and just watching a lot of cars being flooded as they pass.
It is a very small place so it wouldn't be worth the cost, drivers can avoid this road when it floods with a detour
As a Aussie wathcing this carnage, I cannot help but shake my head at the shear number of people that have no idea or concern about the depth of the water and think they can get through without drama. It is simply mind bloggling that there is a continuous stream of people in the Uk that have no idea. Just crazy.
Whats you been an aussie got to do with things
@@petea2485 well to start with pretty sure we wouldn’t continue to try and cross this 3” ford at warp speed in anything other than a 4WD with a snorkel.
Stupid is as stupid does.
Agree mate and I'm English. We are not all dumb, I wouldn’t go anywhere near that with my car haha
I’m sure there’s no twats at all in Australia.
The videos don't show all the drivers who turn around don't forget
I've watched loads of the videos but this one takes the biscuit...how these Muppets thought they could get through that is unbelievable....and as for the bloke on the blue land rover what an arsehole...not only did he loose control he came back for a second go and swamped the already flooded car..
His control was indeed loose.
@@sw6188 He didn't think he could lose?
I think this ford needs CCTV or speed cameras. It's a well known spot for arseholes and the police have been seen there before ticketing people.
Better still it needs gated off (similar to snow gates) when the water gets this high, or someone needs to find the cash for a humpback bridge. The detour to avoid this ford entirely is also about 4 miles and takes 15 minutes.
Got to love the taxi driver continuing to steer once the car is floating and the attempt to further write of .... erm I mean recover the car was even better 😂
And all the bystanders watching and filming and smiling , not the least bothered to caution anyone.
And then there is the rescue truck or jeep waiting nearby for business.
And then there is a flourishing mechanic industry fixing broken down cars.
They have created two industries
A. Entertainment
B. Automobile service
C. Our mate Tom who posted these videos monetizing them
3:35 man tries to pull the car while standing on the car. amazing. pure intellectual. such genius. applause.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
If he pulls hard enough he can fly straight to the destination.
An awful lot of people seem to have no idea how cars work. What a clown show!
Also I think that blue Defender needs a brick fitting to its windscreen.
Kudos to the guy in the grey van towards the end, that was nicely done, if a big risk.
I'd be claiming against his insurance if I were the Kia owner, it was still running and only floated off when the defender went past.
@@themightydash1714 looked a lot like deliberate destruction of property to me - blue defender guy was trying to get the water over those cars as much as possible. Absolute bellend.
The vast majority of people do not know how cars work, that's why so many people buy European cars.
@@themightydash1714 Running or not the Kia has taken on so much river water that the interior would have mold and other issues weeks later. Seat foam and other areas that would hold water throughout the interior does not dry quickly. I would bet there are puddles of water in some of the plastic boxes and electronics in the cabin with the amount of water shown coming out once they pulled it back to dry ground, probably wouldn't be much different than a vehicle pulled from a flood zone.
May I ask something?
If you can’t take this route, do you have to go around the whole UK to get on the other side of this river?
I am amazed how many people try getting through this water…
No the route that bypasses the ford is litterly 3 miles from 1 side of the ford to the other
that little FIAT handled it like a boss!
In addition to the depth marker, they need to add an IQ level checker at this place. Seriously, that couple had a kid in the car and they still tried to cross this flood 😮
Every child deserves good parents, but not all adults deserve to be parents.
The kid's in trouble if his parents are that stupid.
I've been bingeing these all day. Just found the channel. I'm still trying to work out if some people have ever seen large bodies of water before - and that internal combustion engines requires air - water doesn't compress. Also, many modern ECUs are placed under the hood. Not to mention the plethora of electronic sensors that can fail in water. I'm a total loss as to comprehend what exactly the f*** is going on here.
Here in the States you need a license and training course to do just about anything, even hunt. But you can make ten babies with no training….
She looked pretty miffed and actually got on with getting the child to safety and pushing the car whilst the actual driver was still perched on the window sill concentrating as do so many on saving his shoes and socks. Do not blame the passenger who may have no control on what happens in the car. She is the true heroine of this sequence.
The driver of that car appeared to try to pull the car away from hitting the fence by pulling on the roof, while standing on same car.
3:36
Dr Spooner told me that the name of the driver in the blue Defender is "Cupid Stunt".
Funniest part is the ducks quacking in the background 😂😂😂
Recovery companies and car repair shops are having a blast.
The electronic parking brake is a brilliant invention.
😂😂😂😂😂
That BMW was in drive, judging by the reaction of the wheels tbh.
I've just got myself a car with electronic brake and it's stupid... I can't understand how it's better than a handbrake
@@dragonsmonkgood luck putting it in neutral with no power to the electric shifter
That BMW was totaled too, has missed its MOT check since this happened
It blows my mind that people avoid getting wet rather than getting out and reducing damage to the car...
Not getting wet is usually the motivation by which they enter way too fast.
if you're far from home you're absolutely fucked if you get drenched, have fun being in dirty wet clothes for hours
It blows my mind that people avoid a detour of +0.6 miles or 2 minutes and end up getting totaled
@@nopenope3512 If that is the case, you shouldn't drive in the water in the first place . . .
I wonder if the insurance actually pays the owners when they deliberately destroy their cars like this.
These videos offer a bizarre spectacle of communal indifference and personal misfortune, encapsulated in moments of both humor and tragedy.
Funny how the Bimmer re-floats after Tubby gets out !
If I would arrive at this place with my car and see at least 10 peoples filming me, I would seriously thinking about if crossing the water is a good idea 🙂
That's what you call a hint.
Ikr, i would be like ''thanks for the warning'' and detour..
All the locals are so helpful after encouraging people to destroy their cars.
Why tf is the road open?
I just love those floaters.
What a bunch of turds

"Red taxi, you say..."
"And it aquaplaned into a bridge..."
"And then got caught in a flash flood..."

Red taxi driver: Some w⚓ pushed my car into the ford, honest! 🤣
It was the clients fault. "Drop me by the jetty" he said.
Everyone so helpful, "we'll tow you out!" . It'd be better telling them not to go in lol
Are there not signs up / why isn't the road closed?
I'm sure the police would love to see the clip with blue Defender. Intimidating the Kia to go through and then dangerous driving in the ford. Pretty sure the Kia would have made it too if it didn't get pushed by the water from the Defender.
Apparently he has been reported. That's dangerous and inconsiderate driving because it is illegal to drive through floodwaters in that fashion. A lot of people don't realise that.
@@halfbakedproductions7887 yea you need a liosence for that
the kia would not have made it through - remember its a Kia
@@halfbakedproductions7887 With 3 million viewers the guy's plate visible, it'd be a heck of a lot stranger if the driver wasn't reported. They probably got so many reports, they had to make a note not to accept anymore.

Why isn't the road closed?
It was
Can’t believe there is no police stopping this mess.
Sometimes there was a police presence when things got really bad, but it's all academic now as the road is currently closed.
The really stupid thing is that the detour to avoid this mess is only about 3 miles.
Best the fun police stop everything, then we'll all be safe with our SADS.
In one of these clips there is a large red notice "road closed". Obviously a case of "That don't apply to me".

Good thing the first driver of the red car left his wipers on. It's super important to have good visibility.
How much cost a repair?
100% would have shouted to the first one,,, " you can't park there m8". Haha
4:08 Would really suck to fit a snorkel to your land rover just to find out that it wasn't installed properly after you needed it the most...
Rumors say, adding a snorkel to a car doesn't increase the intelligence of the driver.
Bummer!
@@Webfra14 Rumours say , one BMW driver bought a snorkel and fitted it to his face .....😉
@Retired Bore snorkel is a snorkel. You’re talking about a raised air intake, these are two different things.
@@indiebekonn No, a snorkel is just a nickname for a raised air intake, they are the exact same thing. Maybe you're thinking of a cold air induction system?
@@krashd most people associate a snorkel with the fully sealed and safe for water crossings raised air intake while calling it a raised air intake(as Toyota etc does call their intakes from the factory) means it’s there just to keep the air clean, especially with something like an additional cyclone cleaner on top. I mean, technically both can mean the same thing but any knowledgeable person knows the difference.
Some shameful behaviour there today.
I am amazed at the solidarity of these people. You calmly watch how people get into trouble and enjoy it by filming the process. After all, you can put up a fence. Amazing You won’t find anything like this in Russia.
I have to admit I am a bit curious how EV's would do. On one hand they don't have an air intake to get flooded... on the other hand if there is a single lose connection or crack in the battery it would short out.
Spontaneous fire , burning of an EV in water 😂 ??!!
They all have a high a risk of battery corrosion over time and eventual spontaneous combustion. You don't want to be anywhere near an EV when they catch on fire the flames are not only highly toxic but also very hard to put out. Many people have burned down their own homes with an EV in the garage.
@@oldcrook510 it would make sense that driving in water with an electric vehicle be not recommended... Battery corrosion as isn't the battery very close to the ground?
Have they found out in Luton if it was an electric vehicle which started the fire and not a diesel vehicle?
2:13 Somehow relaxing to watch how cable cuts through the plastic bumper nice and tidily
Yes even the recovery was a disaster.
"The worse thing you can do is stop" -
because we won't get any film of your car floating... 🤣
I wish lived near this place, I couldn't just sit and watch this all day with my coffee.
If there is literally a duck swimming around in a puddle, that should be a HUGE indicator that it is too deep to drive through. 😂
There are depth indicators there if you open your eyes.
What on earth was the driver of the Fiat 500 thinking! Haha
More than most of the others. She asked and thank god became an honest answer to try to back up. Only an asshole would tell her to get going.
I reckon that sorento would have made it if not for the blue defender.
I remember as a kid back in the day before the foot bridge was rebuilt, the flood used to go over it where people stand. Then they replaced it with a wooden foot bridge. Seems like it changed again sometime in the past.
The small Fiat going backwards was amazing!
I guess I know where to go if I ever need a insurance claim lol
The red taxi moored up at the pier was the livelihood of the mishap driver. I wonder what exactly made him drive it into waist high water ? If he's an owner, he jumped headfirst into financial depression, if he's an employee, P45 coming up.
He needed some fenders tied on the side of the boat, I mean car.
He's getting sacked today probably
Only if his boss see the video
It's not so bad, another ten year old vauxhall would be about two and a half grand. Cars depreciate faster than bread here.

I am astounded by the stupidity of some people. Is it their first time going down the road? Where does this road go to that they need to go through it and skip any other route. Pretty much the majority of all these cars are totaled.
You can avoid it completely with a 10 minute detour. People are just really dumb and/or impatient.
It’s just a short cut round Ollerton no need to go down there after rain
It's a 10 minutes or less drive around
I google mapped it out of curiosity, picking 2 points on either end. It was a 0.2 mile, or 1 minute difference to avoid this
I reckon some of it must be sat navs claiming its a quicker route or something, theres no way that Royal Mail truck is going that way because it has to
"What shall we do today? Destroy the car we're still making payments on while voiding our warranty and voiding our insurance? Right-o, cheerio."
At 2:40 the BMW is so graceful, a sweet hydrolock marks its progress to a boat.. It was a nice touch to leave it in park, too - better safe than sorry!!
I like how the taxi is still trying to steer even though he’s clearly floating
In the smallprint it says "if we end up floating in ford, meter still runs"
The Fiat 500 with the optional "Flotation With Reverse" package (7:50)!
Have you got a video of my Isuzu dmax 2022 in silver
Are there no warning signs?
1:48, depth marker shows 3 foot deep. Should insurance companies pay out for such stupidity? Driver of Blue Defender at 6:48 makes me think, nasty person!
May god bless them and all who sail in them.
That made me laugh. 😄
Ahoy there ship mate permission to board your taxi
I bet I just witnessed $1 million worth of insurance claims in one day 😂
The little Fiat handled that nicely!
Fancy doing that in the vehicle that pays your wages 🤣
I know right 🤣🤣🤣🤣
he be sacked in the morning
And a lot of cab drivers are driving on finance i.e. they have to work in order to pay for the vehicle that provides their work. Although that cab is a 63 plate so I'd have hoped it woudl be paid off by now, or bought second-hand at a depreciated price and not be so expensive to keep on the road.
Also, I had a 63 plate Insignia diesel as a rental back in 2015. Just like that taxi except black. It was a really lovely car and I was sad to hand it back in.
The LR may have snorkels and a high wading depth but it will still say in the handbook that oil in the axle & diffs etc are recommended to be replaced after traversing through deep water, unless they are fitted with extended vent outlets also.
I don't think they're the kind of people who care about that
