- Dam Opening After Years - Dam Opening Spillway Gates - Insane Scenes (DON'T MISS)
Welcome back, everyone. Today, we're witnessing something extraordinary-opening a dam spillway after many years. We’re gonna share some jaw-dropping footage of these giants from across the world, so watch till the end! You'll be witnessing some big powerful splashes of silty water full of giant boulders gushing through the spillways, creating a dramatic scene all around. 🚀💦
Without further ado, let’s delve straight in.
=====================
Jiroft Dam, Iran: Just see how it ejects the horrible spurt of sediment deposit. After 30 years of drought and sediment buildup, the dam in Iran has been reopened, marking a significant moment for the region. The prolonged closure had left the dam unfilled and its valve clogged with mud and silt. Extensive maintenance and cleaning were necessary to restore its functionality. The reopening signifies the end of a lengthy dry period, promising renewed water supply for agriculture and domestic use, and revitalizing the local ecosystem. This event symbolizes resilience and hope for the future of Jiroft's residents.
=========================
Lake Hartwell Dam, USA: The next on our list is the footage from the Lake Hartwell Dam Spillway release back in 2018. The dam, built by the US Army Corps of Engineers in 1962, has an overall capacity of 421 MW. Its spillways were again tested in March 2024. The Hartwell Dam floodgates are typically opened for flood control, maintenance, and/or inspection. The rare occurrence and visual splendor attract many curious onlookers.
==========================
Tarbela Dam, Pakistan: Hearing the loud horrible sirens? Well, that’s the warning to the downstream people living in the Tarbela area of Pakistan. This footage is from one of the giant dams in Pakistan with a generation capacity of over 4,000 Megawatts. This 143 meters high dam produces powerful splashes that you can’t even stand near the waterway. Just see how they’re running away.
=========================
Neelum Jhelum Hydropower Project, Pakistan: The reason for choosing this video is the funniest comments I’ve read in the thread. One comment was: "This is a surprisingly accurate visual representation of how it feels when you've had a cold for days, and your sinus congestion finally clears up!" And another comment was: “Straight after the morning coffee, now let the day begin.” This 969 MW hydropower project is one of a kind in Pakistan.
=========================
Glen Canyon Dam, USA: This is a one-year-old video of the Glen Canyon Dam, a giant helping regulate the Colorado River. This dam, comprising a massive concrete arch-gravity structure on the Colorado River in northern Arizona, stands as a significant feat of engineering and a symbol of modern water management in the American Southwest. Completed in 1966, the 710-foot tall dam was built to create Lake Powell, the second-largest artificial reservoir in the United States, providing essential water storage for the Upper Basin states under the Colorado River Compact. The footage shows officials opening the spillways to help improve the environmental conditions of the Colorado River and move the accumulated sediment downstream to avoid erosion by building beaches on the river.
=================
Types of Spillways:
====================
Ogee Spillway: Shaped like an "S" curve, it smoothly transitions water flow, minimizing turbulence.
Chute Spillway: Allows water to descend a steep slope, often lined with concrete to prevent erosion.
Shaft Spillway: A vertical drop structure, often called a 'morning glory' spillway, funneling water through a shaft.

You might need to get free version of grammerly because your script is riddled with grammar errors
Narration of most not all bids are so poor so third world that I stop watching after a few seconds😮
@@JGG3345
Did it affect the opening of the dam?
@@johannesfeigl5309
Then you missed the part where grammar didn’t keep the dam from opening.
@@rkr7372 Yes, it made watching the dam opening annoying! :)
Pro-tip. This video is tolerable if you turn the audio off
Thanks for the tip.
The grammar always gives it away that it's an AI narrator .
@@SaadIqbalengrplease take the tip. As soon as I heard that dreaded voice I went for the "do not recommend" because I've vowed that's what I'd do. It's always rubbish narration. ....don't know what held me back.
"Without further ado, let's dive right in"
Next sentence "Before I start the actual video..."
Just straight stupid contradiction. That's just the start.
For goodness sake, do your research then do the narration yourself. Human is so much better. Now I'm going back to the "do not recommend" button because I doubt you'll take my advice lol.
God Almighty AI just says so much crap.
@topspeed250k5 don't you worry I have taken notes and I will strictly follow the tip.
Yup - can't stand that AI voice.
A.I. narration is “horrible”
@@tutekohe1361 as the AI likes your comment
but but But this is every channel's favorite *"**#Ai**"* voice. 🎖
@@tutekohe1361 just lazy channels, no originality, channel owners with no creativity
Just like that background noise hi might call "music".
It's the future so get use to it.
Reminds me of my colonoscopy preps. Starts out with boulders, turns muddy, then gets all clear in the end.
😂😂
😂😂😂
Go Lightly "Golytely"?
Didn't take long for that one. Now comes the Taco Bell references, followed by 'underrated'..
Dude, no
Despite the Dam narration being annoying, this is an interesting Dam video.
Thanks for the appreciation
Have you read the letter from the guy about the dam beavers in his dam pond?
Thats dam awful. All of it
@@williamb2642 Hey now. I'm just giving my dam opinion on the dam content of this dam video. These dam people work very hard to keep those dam videos coming.
Indeed, only is it just me, but the end was very abrupt. It left me with the feeling something went wrong?
I did not see a SINGLE MASSIVE BOULDER!!!
Its the slushy water where boulders and sediments eject out.
How horrible 😅
@@SaadIqbalengrThose look more like huge clumps of compacted sediment than boulders.
Mud and silt. In most of it...
Wrong‼️ 5:40🤦♀️
Wow what a terrible script. Just awful. I’m out after less than a minute.
Yep about 20 seconds for me.
That's what makes it great though!
AI generated mostly monotone commentary. This voice is often heard on many other UA-cam channels.
That and the annoying out of focus footage both sides of the clear footage...grrr
Seems ok to me, although the music sucks and is too loud 😮
I don’t know how I feel about this ‘dam’ video. I didn’t even see any ‘dam’ boulders. 😂
They are there actually if you look it closely.
Dam it.
You need a new script writer. That was horrible. 😂
Okay I will get one, but surely it was funny, isn't it so?
@@SaadIqbalengr not bad... you can do better.
Well dam. I found this video to be a dam good explanation of good dam maintenance and dam engineering. Just dam it.
Thanks for loving it.
The videos were good but, you should hire another robot to do the narrations!
At 4:28, I didn't see anybody "running away" from the dam. 😂😂😂
Its right there...
I saw the cameraman running TOWARDS the water, but we all know that the cameraman NEVER dies,,,,lol
@@SaadIqbalengr🤣🤣🤣
I am a Navy veteran and retired Army 1SG. My MOS was 52E (prime power production specialist) our parent command was The Corps of Engineers. Upon retiring at Ft. Lewis, WA, actually six months prior to retirement date, I was hired by Detroit Diesel as a field service technician for marinized generators, propulsion engines and very large land-based Gen sets. After seven years I decided to retire for good. After a couple months the corps of engineers contacted me to work on the hydro-powered generator aspects on all the dams in the western US. Doing maintenance on the electrical production side of the dams. By that time I was suffering from Gulf War problems and was unable to accept. Would have been awesome with, again, frequent travel. 😷🤒
Good old days.
A lot of those "spillways" are actually the outlet works, like at Glen Canyon. Spillways typically are not low on the dam, and flow is not driven by high pressures. It spills over some sort of crest.
I love the mud that glorps out when it starts. It's so gloopular.
Kinda like a big zit...
@@richardm3023More like a big sh!t.
@@evilsharkey8954 after a night of drinking and late night taco bell...
@@richardm3023 or White Castle sliders !!
Totally mandibular
UA-cam… I’m getting tired of these terrible AI offerings.
Amazing power in those flows.
Yes absolutely.
4:31 - 'Just see how they're running away..!' Absolute terror, fer sure. Practically a snuff film.
🤣🤣🤣
“Tons of Boulders…”, did I miss the boulders? Eight minutes can’t possibly cover what’s shown in the description. Where’s the rest of the video?
Its just coming
When we stand close to these water release, you can feel in the air tghe power presnnt in the water. . .Amazing .. Awesome! ! !
Yes the power of water and power is nature is just outstanding and insane.
I worked at a small damn in Pennsylvania it was hypnotic watching all the water go over the damn but hearing protection was a necessity due to the noise of the rushing water
I hate AI narration with the intensity of a thousand Suns.
Effects and music didn't seem to fit. In general this video doesn't seem to know its purpose and is very distracting sometimes.
I will keep that in mind next time. This video is more of amusing nature, so enjoy. 🤣
I liked it
@matthewcombs5387 thanks for the support...
Video is fascinating!
This is pretty dam impressive
Thanks for the appreciation.
Reminds me of the morning after a Taco Bell binge .
@@sirclarkmarz sphincter relief );(
I think it’s very educational.
The one in Iran talk about being constipated 😂😮😅😊
DAMN, it is just DAM opening 🙃
Wish the narrators would learn English.
It's ai
But with a human mind and thoughts.
It’s an AI written script, narrated by an AI generated voice. A human spent
@erikswanson6687 no sir. The script was written by me but I admit the voice is of NARRATION.
That opening sequence reminds me of the occasion I wrote off a toilet.
😆
"Infantile" narration..
Thats a dam good idea
Making sure the text overlaps the main image is a skill...I guess
Fun fact: When a flood gate is opened, you can tell how much the gate is opened by watching how far up the slope the “white water” is from the top. Example, when they first open a flood gate the white water (turbulent water) is all the way at the top. As the gate opens the white water will move down the slope of the ramp. The water that is clear and not white is when laminar flow is reached. It’s a pretty cool thing to watch. Also, the flood gates are used to release large amounts of water and not over speed the turbines which is where the water coming out of the dam that produces electricity.
Where can I get some dam bait😂😂
Clearly A.I. generated
Just after you get stuck in traffic and realize that the gas station sushi is heading out. Explosive diarrhea is coming your way
Nice joke btw. 😃
It is clear that it has never occurred to you to look up the meaning of the word 'insane'. It is NOT what you think it is. Are all civil engineers this inarticulate?
That Iranian dam reminds me of a trip I made to Mexico.
The fish just went for the ride out their lives 😂
Sorry, I baled out early. Bloody music !
@ 5:05 brought back bad memories of the day after " Chili Day " for lunch at school !
Nice.
@@SaadIqbalengr 😂
Boulders? The narrator must be under influence of controlled substances!
Thats pretty dam interesting! Thanks for the video.
Glad you liked it!
“The siren was more louder than the amount of water it’s ejecting”.
Who wrote this script 😂
Hate it when people blur both sides of a video leaving just a sliver in the middle.
They are not blurring the sides. They are using vertically-oriented footage, and filling in the sides with a blurred and stretched image so that displays that automatically detect the format of the video won't jump to a different format. And yes, it's annoying.
So basically it's like going to the bathroom after you have too many burritos with salsa verde...
Yes lolz 😆
I think many of those places need to be opening their spillway a lot more often.
Exactly thats my point
Oh no, it did not see a single boulder. How horrible! 🤣
Narrated for 12 year old audiences with added ‘epic action music score’…..
I never knew bad grammar affected the opening of a dam that’s a handy piece of information to have.
Really??
While the AI voice is indeed off-putting (as many others have noted), i still gave a like because i appreciate that you explain what a spillway is and what it does, rather than just showing a montage of a bunch of footage. I actually learned something here, so kudos! But do invest in a mic 😅
@BretMix thanks for the appreciation and I'll make sure bot to use AI voice anymore.
I can’t imagine how bad that silt and mud smelled.
As soon as I hear this voice I know to just click off.
Cool footage but awful naration.
No fish were injured in the making of this video.
Dam haters my boy but you got their view
How it feels to chew five gum. XD
At 7:33 did you see that giant man standing in the background with a black clothes and blue hat? Kinda freaked me out when I first saw him.
Cool looking places there now yall
could be 2 min long and still not worth watching.
You can guide and appreciate. We are open to suggessions.
No wonder the beaches are running out of sand.
Yeah 😊
VERY COOL VIDEO 😀👍
Thank you 🤗
Dam. I mean damn.
Thank you for introduction
That's me after I have taco bell lmao
@@watchvideos1550 really funny...
Dam! Interesting video.😊
Thanks
Yes, the video has it's problems but I loved watching the rushing water. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!
This would be better without "World of Warcraft III" music.
Who wrote the dreadful script?
Robot voice - terrible script - horrible grammar. Why?
How cool and oddly satisfying was this?
Excellent video & presentation. Very informative. Now I know! Thanks 👍
Glad it was helpful!
I’ve seen glen canyon dam open the spillway. Awesome
Thanks thats a good thing
All I know is, that there's no one with dry underwear, within a 50 mile radius of that Chinese dam...DAMN !!!
Amazing videos, glad I had the sound off!
Glad you enjoyed it!
And what EXACTLY is "dangerous for me to watch this ??????????
Damn video!!!!!
Commentary sux
"Without further ado, let's delve straight in...Before I start my actual video..." 🤗
2:45 when u have taco bell
👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍!!!!
That first one reminded me of the last time I ate at Taco Bell! 😁
This is cool I live near Hartwell dam and lake Hartwell is pretty big
Great....have a great time living there...
Years to get a dam started? Well let's get this damn thing kickin'!
Yeah sure...its on and kicking...
Dump the AI. Who wrote the script?
I'll be damed...thats alot of powerful, Large amount water being released
The A.I. voice is un "damn" bearable...
This story just suddenly stopped.
Learning hurts sometimes. Roll around, you'll be ok. 👍 😂
That's why i kind of mix the things to add fun and learning together.
Not enough dam jokes!!
This is fucking horrific. Ai scripted and voiced?
Didn’t see any boulders. 😢😢
Its in the footage as of thumnails the size of spillway os big enough thats why you have not the idea.
Glen Canyon Dam does not release much sediment because most sediment settles out miles away at the reservoir's river inlets.
Great boulders
...said Dolly Parton.
2;28 video could be opening a dam, OR, the result of eating a bag full of bean burritos
A nice depiction...really 😁
2:18 looks like my last trip to the WC
the ones with the mud flying out is like the morning after Taco Bell or White castle hard boiled eggs and beer . !
Let's do some dam fishing 😂😂😂
