I know you may be thinking those arrows are for finding the drains under a snowbank but the plows go right up against the curb as any good plow driver should. These arrows appeared at these drains after I reported this area to have constant flooding. The rest of the drains on the street are not marked so I assume it's flood-related if it was snow bank related I think they would have marked all of them, either way for snow or not they should have used a metal or concrete post in the ground because weather the arrows are covered with a flood or a layer of ice you won't be able to see them
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.

If this guy moves his community will be in serious trouble.
Factss
and people there had the nerve to splash on him 😒
The community will move to where he lives
@@tonyprice7544 😂
🤣😂🤣😂
There's some philosophy here.
He's doing what he likes but there are some jerks who don't bother slowing down and don't care if someone gets splashed or they splash him on purpose. He, however, keeps on with his work and eventually there's no water and he can't be splashed anymore.
This some deep shit
Infinite IQ
You would almost hope those drivers drown their engine doing this
Lovely! ❤
Also, he seems to love whirlpools.
He knows he can't see whirlpools unless he solves a problem they represent.
So he solves the problems that let him see whirlpools. Everyone wins
Most people accommodate him, some of them help in their way, but once in awhile someone breaks the rules to bypass them, or just ignores the situation entirely.
"I must keep moving - there are more blocked drains to be cleared!"
A true life Super Hero.
Oscar Goldman THE RAKE?! nah. something better.
yes, a true neighborhood hero in a sense,
@@DoorPro3667 The more I watch his channel, the more I think he should give the number plates of those who drench him to the cops (like they asked him to).. They probably laugh over it.
Robin Hood of Drainswood
I wonder if he's recruiting help. Lol.
The fact he’s still doing this 3 years later when about 25% of the people are jerks and splash him shows how big his heart is. 💜 The world needs more people like him.
Preety sure most of them didnt intend to splash them
@@reapexerI feel like that makes it worse actually. How do you not be paying attention? Most of the other drivers managed to either slow down, drive far enough away he didn't get hit, or both.
Having said that driving through that much water seems nuts to me. I suppose when it floods here it's usually flash flooding and there's a decent chance the water is actually fast moving though
All he need is a bar of soap 🧼
There are quite a few of these type channels, what I'd like to know is, how many of the people would still be unclogging drains if there was no place to show the videos they make?
I think they are doing a good dead, but lets not fool ourselves most of them are doing it for views.

@@timjoe7989 what
Thanks bro no one watched the video yet so this was good to know
Yep that's what happens in the video 😐
What a saint this man is. His idea of fun is community service in the pouring rain. I swear we'd have world peace if just 10% of the world operated like this
You should start being more like this then (me too)
I used to remove litter by near where I live, still do occasionally yet not as often as I once did. Getting old. Getting sadder still seeing so much discarded.
If psychopathy/sociopathy were acknowledged and large numbers of people didn't follow the sick ones...then we'd have world peace.
Obtaining world peace would be a stretch 😂
Yep but my fatass will continue to be here on my phone

Well that's because you're a weirdo! 😂
Welcome to the club!
Same. I was gonna fast forward but then I looked I was at the end of the video.
Same..👌👌
Right? Clicked on it wondering what the twist was that made it so popular.
Turns out, the twist is just the video... And I can not stop watching! I am now gonna go through his backlog and make me a zen-playlist....
Haha I was doing some DIY and took a break, next thing I am staring at my screen! You sir are a legend, and those that splash you...disgraceful!

Its clearly his job ya ding

men, we have gathered here to all enjoy the moment that we have waited for. not all of us were blessed enough to have that one street where the drains always clogged, or always had rocks in front of them. not all of us could be a a hero like this man. but we shall forever bask in his glory, as he has cemented this journey onto the internet forever.

I just spent 18 minutes watching a guy unclog drains and I'm not disappointed
I would like your comment but rn it's at 69 likes so imma keep the respect of that
Yea thats right my last 18 minute watching a guy unclogging drains until i go to foster care for no reason and its gonna be terrible over at foster care. Its the opposite of a daycare.
This was very therapeutic for me as well
@@jacktchilin9891 it's at 420 now🤣
Facts! Lol
He said "just like last year". This isn't just a hobby, this is his passion.
Maybe he just likes whirlpools.
Whirlpools are amazing.
And it's addly satisfying to watch a whirlpool
Unpopular opinion in the comment section: maybe he likes helping people
If this guy truly does this because he enjoys the whirlpool payoffs, I wouldn't be surprised if this could be attributed to Asperger's Syndrome. One of the main characteristics of A.S. is having special interests with a passion.
I myself am diagnosed with a mild case of A.S. and certainly know a bit about going down rabbit holes to learn almost everything about something specific, which to most people would feel like a waste of time. My current "rabbit hole" is trying to get to know all there is to know about electric cars - their history, construction, battery tech, etc.
And while most people desire social connections, I feel most at ease when I'm alone and try to obtain information on my interests... which is hard for most people to understand.
I admire you getting out there and helping the community clear the roads FOR FREE. Meanwhile you have assholes driving on the sidewalk and also speeding by you with no regard for your safety. You’re the type of person that gives hope in human kindness. Much respect to you.
“Just like last year” this isn’t his first rodeo. He is a man of the people
Look at his videos, he does this all the time
@@saltboat5091 I think they know that
And this is not the first time we’ve seen him. His video appeared on my feed a year ago where he unclogged the roads. I’m very happy to see him on my feed again - search his videos by most popular

I realized how much water he was draining when I saw there was actually a curb
Now that you pointed it out, holy crap that's a lot of water. That has to be like 3 or more inches.
@@magicmanscott40k he said it was about a foot when he started
Thanks for caring and sharing
Dude same

This guy's the opposite of a beaver
I cried 😂😂😂
Ha ha ha
I heard Beaver Mafia has a hit out on his head. No, one simply gets away with busting dams under their protection.
Damn
Hes a Skeever
This guy is awesome! As a mechanic I can say he has saved engines from hydro locking. For those who don't know what that is, it is when an engine ingests too much water causing the engine to seize an 9 out of 10 times causes catastrophic engine failure. Especially if you have a low car, don't go into high water or you may pay a hefty price
@Saabspeedmaniac2k6.... Yep! Well said! The European cars are always the worst I've heard to suffer from hydrolocking because the bill is in the 1000's as opposed to Japanese cheaper fixes.I heard of a guy whose Volkwagen hydrolocked in one of these and he was looking at a $4000-$6000 bill.
That 1 out of 10 times you say a prayer, pull the spark plugs out, spin the motor to get the water out and hope you don't have a bent rod assuming it hasn't already made a window in your block. Then you pray for the electronics 😂
I was really surprised at the amount of traffic. And didn't blame people for wanting to drive on the sidewalk.
Major respect to the people who slowed down to not splash him, and to this guy for being an absolute savior.
👏👏
People should do that anyway. It’s just the people who splash him are idiots
conscientious people, it's nice to see that.
That one car clearly did it on purpose. Jerk.
that’s the bare minimum lol
Even I'm getting so pissed off with the people not slowing down and splashing.
@Thomas L I've had some arsehole drive through the deepest part of a flooded road full speed to deliberately drown my car. My car was a Hyundai with all the electronics and he had a 4 wheel drive and thought it was so funny. I certainly didn't and I'm still peeved off because he could have just killed my car.
Idiots
@Thomas L Yeah same thought. My dad used to drive a Subaru through water higher than that near our house. It was low to the ground but had 4WD so it handled it better than a 2WD but he said you had to should never stop and try never to slow down but keep the same pace. Just in the passenger seat, I could feel the pressure from when the water reached the bumper and then when it let go. It also splashed a lot.
I also walked the sidewalk on that road in a few floods and was splashed. It sucked but I understood it. Most people aren't doing it on purpose in those conditions. People splashing on purpose are usually when it finishes raining and there's a puddle somewhere. You can hear them rev up and if facing them see them veer over to hit it on purpose.
Driving on the sidewalks, however, is the worst. Those people should get reported and fined. If flooding is that bad you don't know if someone had to leave their house and is on the sidewalk. It could be the elderly, children, someone with pets, etc.
@@jarvindriftwood I'm not entirely sure he's correct with his 'never slow down' advice, because most driving instructions I've seen concerning waterlogged roads is 1. avoid if possible 2. slow down if you have to go through. Going faster just makes it easier to lose control of the car because of aquaplaning.
If you slow down, the water can clog your engine and cause your engine to lock up (flooding the engine). The never slow down advice is actually good advice. You should keep a speed you can control, preferably a decently faster not slower speed but not too fast. Don’t speed up but definitely don’t slow down.
My guy is out here unclogging drains for the whirlpools, vlogging it, and giving fun facts about the environment at the same time. What a legend
@Accent Proposition yet here you are replying to it
@@biggorilla1999 lmaoooo
and in return he gets splashed by passing cars. some people have no respect

It's incredible how many people don't slow down and absolutely soak this guy!
It’s incredible how many people actually DID slow down so as not to splash him. Nice to be reminded that not everyone sucks.
@@fireballsensei9287I’m sure most of those were because they weren’t sure they we going to make it or just wondering wtf the guy was doing… none of them were slowing for his safety.
@@mwwhiteddon’t always have to be super cynical
Idiots for driving in there in the first place. I don't have a spare 10 minutes to turn around, I must ruin my car instead.
@@mwwhited If they were "not slowing down because they weren't sure they'd make it," they're quite possibly clueless. Not only do they risk sucking too much water into the car's air intake and blowing up their car engine, they also could lose control of their car and wreck into a tree, besides possibly hitting a pedestrian and killing him.
Hats off to the people who slowed down and didn't splash this Legend.
Don’t award mediocrity, we don’t need to pat people on the back who follow simple rules of the road and Highway Code they should have learned already like slow down when entering a flooded area to protect your car, your brakes and yourself, this is expected of every competent and licensed driver. Anyone who just ploughs into the water is either blind or an idiot which is more dangerous.
Blind people wouldn’t see the massive build up of water like the guy who hard splashed him, they slammed the brakes once they hit the water so they didn’t see it coming, in which case their judgement is compromised or their vision is shit, either way get them off the road
The idiot drives on the pavement to avoid the water on a cluttered pavement with trees on a corner which could have pedestrians you don’t see or just drives through the water like it isn’t there, which can wreck the car and you just know they didn’t check their brakes after leaving the water to make sure they’re working properly so they’re both a dick who should be off the road but also driving a potentially unsafe vehicle,
Bad drivers make normal drivers look good, don’t congratulate people for common sense, embarrass the bad ones so they go extinct, or put some cement mix on the pavement to fuse their brakes up good
For real
@@meatballg8655 Mediocrity? I'd say the mediocrity here are those who are speeding though the water and driving on the pavement. What is wrong with patting someone on the back for a small thing? If this video teaches us anything it's that the simple things in life makes it worthwhile. By not splashing the gentleman is being thoughtful unlike some others in the video.
Hats off to the people who sped by even if they didn't want to splash him. You're more likely to get stuck if you go slow.
@@samygirl3113 it's water, not mud. You won't get stuck
They’re driving way too fast through that. If it hits the air intake, they could destroy the engine. Living in Ireland where it never stops raining, this is a common way to write your car off.
I was thinking the same thing. Here in Houston most of us don't dare drive through water like that..so reckless
@@queenv3350 Must be a tad different on your side of Houston. Over here, seems like random dips will never miss an opportunity to blast their Audi right down Westheimer- flooded or not.
They think that cars get stuck in water because the vehicle loses traction by floating up - not because the engine is flooded long before the vehicle turns into a boat.
"Maybe if if I go fast I will float to the other side with the momentum!" ⛵
The majority of people driving cars don't understand that internal combustion engines need *air* just as much as *fuel* to simply run. Same sort of folks who can't set up a campfire because they completely forget about air intake. A car is a living machine: it needs to breath.
Given how difficult it is to get people to at least use turn signals, I wouldn't hold my breath regarding a basic understand of what makes their cars go _vroom._
@@Vistresian1941 They’re Audi drivers. I’m assuming that means the same thing in Texas as it means in Ireland (a sizeable proportion are A-holes).
@@TubeofDestiny This is true. I found my brother looking for spark plugs in a diesel once. Still hasn’t lived it down.

If no one else tells you, thank you for your hard work.
The amount of people splashing him... The audacity and disrespect
I think part of it is they are scared to get stuck, and part jerk, but mostly trying not to get stuck, especially lower profile cars
If there is water on the road a car is always going to make it splash when passing through, it's not on purpose it's just physics
@@alyc6014 Yes, but the unnecessary speed they come in at is making the splash mich bigger

People who were driving fast must be blind because this guy was wearing the brightest Orange shirt I've ever seen.
They did see him,they just didn't care
Or maybe they thought it must be deep and their car could get stuck??
Chaudhry Azeem The last thing you wanna do is race into a deep puddle. 😂 You can’t always tell how deep it is and there could be debris or potholes caused by the flood. Plus the faster you go into the puddle the more water your going to have splashing your engine and with modern cars becoming more technical you’re risking some damage to your engine or electrical parts.
Ryan barth I learned that the hard way. It looked like a small puddle but turned out to be much deeper. Ruined the spark plugs
Chaudhry Azeem if you’re that kind of person then please speed up in a deep puddle so we can get you and your vehicle off the road ASAP.
This man is a legend. Exactly 0% of other people wouldn't do anything like this, yet this man goes out in the pouring rain just to fix the city's road. He should live tax-free just for the amount of work he does for the city.
You, sir, are a local hero. Those people who didn’t slow down, and splashed you, are jerks who don’t deserve you. Kudos to you!
fall guys currency?
Odds are, no one knew he'd be there and that's why they didn't slow down. It's not like there's flashing lights or cones to alert anyone to his presence before they're right on top of him.
@@iFixJunk
Just means people are driving without paying attention to their surroundings, especially due hazardous weather conditions (flooding). They don't have much of any excuse for not noticing someone in a bright orange shirt (similar to safety vest colors). I can understand some people with visual acuity issues, but again, not driving safely when driving as speeds higher than conditions warrant.
HE BELONGS TO THESTREETS
Marv I can get on board with that, but he did have a very bright Orange shirt on and the water was deep. Even without seeing him they should have slowed down.

I did this same thing once, in the dark in my neighborhood. Stayed out for about an hour getting all the drains unclogged, and I swear, being out in the rain and doing that was such a rewarding feeling.
It's a rush to be helpful sometimes. We had a severe windstorm that dumped a bunch of trees and a bunch of us neighborhood kids were able to get out with walkie talkies and directed traffic for over an hour. Small town but a busy weekend with a ton of traffic. We were all pretty jazzed afterward.

That and he does this all the time. He clears the drains often enough he remembers the locations.

Greetings from the UK. What a community spirited guy. We need more people like you in the world.

@@thedondee I completely understand, however, this guy didn’t sign up for it either. He’s just a good guy that decided to do it. Cops signed up to keep the community safe. I think this falls in line with that don’t you? If they have extra time on their hands, it wouldn’t hurt. I personally think community service should be mandatory for cops but not all share that sentiment
Cops should post up with him. Nobody would splash him then....
You just saved thousands of dollars of the car owners as they saved a trip to the garage for removing water from the car engine. Though they don't care about you, you are doing fantastic job. Take care.
Edit: Thanks for the likes. I didn't knew so much guys think the same. 👍
Ya
If there could be that much water, the engine would be the least concern
Or tow fees
He is like hero from shadows, no one didn’t know him, but he is taking care all of them
Actually the people cared about him. Just look at how many people slows down their car as soon they see the guy.
Even when people splashed him he didn't blame or get mad he simply kept working and helped others. I want to be more like this person.
True character ❤️

i think some of them tried slowing down but did it too late dkdhdj
Bit of an overreaction about driving on the sidewalk...they should go way slower while doing so though..not many pedestrians..having a car stall out in the pool is a more likely scenario until they close the road or you get someone like this guy..great neighbor..
Money cant buy class

True story : my street flooded severely years ago. A friend and I were standing in my front yard and noticed 2 similar age guys down the street with a motorcycle in the water, furiously revving/spinning the tire and sending a massive spout of nasty water into the air. They were laughing and spraying water all over the place.
We thought they were being obnoxious as hell until the water started to drain. They unclogged the sewer grate with a motorcycle. The dude with the bike rode off like a hero yelling "the gate is open!"

This man deserves so much respect. The local city officials need to give this man some recognition.

More like A "Thank you" Check 😉😂
Agreed. This man found the drain in moments and the local Dept of Roads/Pub Works were nowhere to be found. Pfft.
This is peak anarchism
*starts raining*
Other people: "Oh man I hate the rain"
This guy: "I must go, the road needs me"
How do you not have any comments. 🤣
he belongs to the street
A real hero

I love the rain
It’s amazing how simple us humans are at being entertained I find this fascinating and I’m drawn in. So satisfying seeing the road go from flooded to almost no water at all
Problem-solving is satisfying to look at.
I just find it utterly ridiculous of these drivers trying to race through when this guy was only doing his best to re improve the road conditions again. Total respect to a wonderful job to you my friend for what you did there.
People today just don’t give a shit unless it’s them then they give a shit.
They didn’t want their car to get waterlogged
@@SunDogGod Racing through makes it more likely you’ll flood your engine. Best to go at a steady pace without stopping to keep ripples low and away from your intake and exhaust.
I thought the same thing - there’s this guy on the side of the road, obviously working to help the situation. Slow down a-holes!
@@TheRestedOne a lot of experienced off roaders say that you should move fast enough to get a good bow wave going. Not sure if this translates to suburban vehicles, just relaying what I’ve heard
the inner canadian in me is screaming that not everyone is honking waving or rolling their windows down to thank him let ALONE having people splash him. this man is extremely selfless and deserves respect.
Right?! My thoughts as well! Why is nobody slowing way down, at the LEAST, let alone thanking him!!
Has to be in America. They don’t even see a guy there. Too busy telling themselves they live in the greatest country on the planet.

@Sistema vertical e aquarismo drunk or new to English? Or both?
It would make more sense to have a 2-3ft color-coded wooden poles at the kerbside to identify drains locations. They can be easily seen in a flood unlike arrows painted on a road.
Only thing is they’re one more thing to crash into
@@Robdutton91 On a rare occasion yes but easily replaceable.
Exactly
This guy needs to be recognized by the mayor or something. Honestly doing more for the community than whatever municipality he's in.
Every year my city gave a large gift basket to an old man who always walks around town collecting trash along the roads. Though I didnt like the man when I was a kid because he'd also break our treehouses we built in the woods.

You sir, definitely make this world a better place. Hats off to you!
Wow, I meet You here :)
Sometimes I watching yours videos)

Ok
But I don’t have a hat
Your kindness is contagious buddy. Tomorrow I’m putting a rake on my truck. It may never get used but if they ever comes a time when I can help with a rake I’ll be ready
This is a public service! - People complain about him recording. You know what? This guy is educating people, and preventing serious flooding. - Good for him. Maybe we should know about good deeds!?
I thought this guy worked for the city at first . Then I realized he was just doing everyone a favor . Never met anyone like that in my life , what a special guy .
@@KitchenWitchery no
They’re rare but they’re out there.
Not all heroes wear capes. Sometimes all it takes is an orange shirt and a rake.
no pants or boots needed lol just a shirt and a rake
The power of one person who gives a damn should never be underestimated.
That's what Co. workers are supposed to

and to think he use to do this without an orange shirt or a rake.

Might wanna workshop that one
Imagine how many times he has done this is he has memorized where the drains are.
Such a good man
Or saw the arrows on the road where the side entry pits are
Or maybe he's lived down the street for more than a few weeks??
I could tell you if the street by me got flooded I wouldn't know exactly where the drainages are....
I love this guy's emphatic personality
Mad respect to the man unclogging and the people that are slowing down for him.
Right! I'm soo disapointed by those people who don't even bother to slow down.
@@monochrome1219 Inconsiderate bunch of lowlifes

He literally says "It's so fun!" at about 16:45. I agree.
Who else did this for fun as kids? Loved it when our neighborhood flooded. Post, you're probably the channel I enjoy the most. Never change bro.

Just when you think the world sucks, you find out about someone like this that is being a good citizen just because he lives there.
We need people like him in this world. What a wonderful human.
if I recall right, he actually does a bit of traveling to places that aren't super local to him. straight up seeking out good to do with zero personal stake.
@@ettinbriar9776 All because he says he does it for fun. Man, I wish I was cool like that.

Why do people always say "we need people like him"? Be the person!!
See… this pov doesn’t make any sense to me. Yeah, he’s a great guy and genuinely cares but look at how many people are out there ready to take advantage of that? Look at how many people drove up on the sidewalk while that one person was working hard for the benefit of others. What chance does this world have if every gem of a person like this is completely outnumbered by self-absorbed pieces of crap?

I keep coming back to this video. I just love watching a road that's complete under water at first getting an unclogging of storm drains and then a few minutes later it's nothing more but a wet road.
I felt so inspired that I got my own rake and unclogged the small storm drain on my street and drained the street before everything froze! The water started a-flowin' and I felt so proud. I'm sure I'm not the only comrade that has felt the urge to unclog. Cheers all
He not only does he do his community he traveled to other communities but he travels out to less travel highways to clear converts that beavers clog up and floods highways too.
I salute you ojb512 keep going
😅😅😅😅😅😇🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
Please use proper protection and safety measures when doing this. Flooded water tends to have all sorts of nasty diseases and junk that can screw you up pretty bad.
Isn't that fun to have such power in a way? Such a great benefit to the community you made! I have a drain across the street from me that I see gets a bit clogged. I planned on keeping an eye on it.
This guy needs some public reward , and city council need to fund him if he had the men and the rakes think what he could do , and put him in charge of drainage for American but keep him clear of the hover dam
Lake Como we shouldn’t make him that powerful , he knows how to control the water

You really should give these videos to your local news, your mayor, city council, and any people that live near those storm drains to educate them on the importance of keeping storm drains clear, how easy it is to clear them, and how clearing a few drains can keep streets passable and possibly save lives. Most people don't understand it only takes 6 inches of water to sweep a car away. Good on you to take the Initiative to help your community!
I didn’t know that about the 6 inches. Girl you might’ve aaved some lives with this comment
I didn’t know it only took 6 inches of water. That is crazy
@@JadetheGoober six inches isenough to hydroplane a car. Learned it in driving school.
It has to be moving water. 6” of moving water. Standing water cannot sweep a car away. It has to be moving water.
The problem isn't necessarily the city itself. You'll notice a lot of natural debris that gets swept into these drains and blocks the flow of water. Get the debris under control and no more clogged storm drains.
Dude single handedly made that road 100% safer and nobody says thank you
A lot of people don't realize how important it is to drain a street. You have my respect! Thank you for doing this!
totally! this way more idiots will stop driving on the sidewalk
@toasted buns well yeah that too obviously hahah
It's incredible to think just how many gallons of water got moved by just one determined man with a rake
It’s a beautiful thing
It was gravity doing the heavy lifting
@@tredlig1717 gravity was stopped by some pine needles.
that's not gallons, it's acre feet of water
This guy deserves like all the respect in the world. He’s busting his ass to clear these waterways in what has to be the most thankless job on earth.
The town should give you an award for clearing up the roads when it rains. You should wear some type of neon safety vest & maybe get some fishing waders so people take care when you're cleaning the sewers & grates! Thanks for caring about your town!!!
I like that he doesn’t rage out and shout at people who annoy him.
This guy is unreal!!
@@hordan0 Most people would shout at a car that splashes them without any consideration. “Dude, what the fuck?”
The guy is as calm as a coma. I'd be flippin off everyone hahah
@@hordan0 definitely not
Yeah, but they could still slow down while the guy's *obviously* trying to work. Wouldn't kill them.

@@deanobeany I drained the garden by doing this thing lsat night
I never thought that watching someone unclog drains is satisfying. Bless this man who goes out of his way to do this kind of service even if he gets splashed by rude drivers.
It isn’t about a kind service. It is an obsession with winning! Lol. Beating the water! Getting that satisfaction! I know because I suffer with this type of thing too. It is so satisfying to unclog something, straighten something, fix something.
@J B uhhh you realize it doesn’t always have to do with OCD. he CAN only be doing it because he’s a good person.
@@seanna_.7598 They never even mentioned ocd and thats not the definition of ocd so what are you even on about?

Its life
Years later and I am still watching you clear this flood. Appreciate all of your videos.
Your a great dude. Don’t let anyone ever say otherwise.
Fast Internet you felt the need to reply to this why????
Fast Internet hmm seams like your just hunting for clout. Search through videos and find someone to start an argument with. Wonder how many people have yelled at the man to “get out the road” etc while he’s doing them a service. Maybe you should go find something else to do with your life. Like stop being an asshole?
Robert no your wrong Robert.
Caleb Collier please explain. I’m interested to hear your point?
It’s not his video
This man should be the superintendent of public works in the state. He’s not only handy but very knowledgeable and should be a leader!
I approve you are very correct
You should be the superintendent of youtube internationally. You not only lack toxicity but very good at giving positive comments and should be a leader!
He may be great at his job but not good at leading other people: he should be given a job and a raise for his expertise, but not necessarily be guiding others, which is among the reasons why so many good workers rise to positions they aren't fit for.
The Peter Principle: people in a hierarchy tend to rise to their "level of incompetence".
Mr Knarf He has a wealth of knowledge. If he may not be a suitable leader, but certainly a champion within the learning and development of others who are open and willing to learn. It looks simple how he unclogs those drains but the knowledge about the landscape and why the water was rising is great. Many may think it’s just some common theory but clearly no one in the city cared to fixed it. It’s not about how much you know but how you apply it!
He’s doing everyone a favor and they just drive by and splash him...
Water shall not hinder my spontaneous journeys.
Those same people would run him over and not lose a wink of sleep at night.
That’s humans for ya
They deserve to get in trouble
IKR what a bunch of assholes
