Lake Mead Is Almost Empty

- It really is sad how low Lake Mead really is. Dropping by the day it's only a matter of time before all of her secrets are revealed. Boats have already surfaced and some are now literally on dry land that was just months ago under water.

#LasVegas #LakeMead #EmptyLake
Empty!? Come on bro with this click bait BS. Lakes dropped 100ft and 1,000 plus to go tell empty. F*^%n drama queen
Hahaha thanks for the comment.
Dropped 175 feet in the past years and it's only 532 feet deep. Just sayin....
Do you normally get your facts from UA-cam? Obviously if the lake was empty miilions of people will be in some serious shit and I don’t think you’d be hearing it first from UA-cam. Goofball
If you cant see this is a real drama, you are the problem. Lake Mead has been falling for years, but this is crazy.
Its a man made tub.
If you look at the lake from a horizontal perspective, it's shaped like a V. So, if you are removing water at the same rate over time, the level will appear to drop faster and faster as time goes by. I don't think people really understand the gravity of the situation.
They don't and they think I'm click baiting but I've been in and out of the harbors for weeks now and it's dropping fast. If it takes a shocking title to make people open their eyes than so be it.
I always find it creepy to see things that were once under water.
It's very creepy
Right!
Use your floor mats under your tires. Worked for me getting unstuck. Lol. Thanks for the tour.
Ugh sucks seeing the lake keep getting lower and lower. Glad you guys were able to get help to get un-stuck. Thanks for another great video Marc.
Thank you for your amazing support brother.
The shopping cart in the middle of the desert . Is cool . I can see that shot framed , and hung at an art exhibit 🛒 🌵
Nice to see Alex with you . I miss those days with my father. # DADS ROCK
Thank you Marc, you go out of your way to keep us informed on Lake Mead, it’s very interesting. Thank God you all were helped out there, be safe🥰♥️🙏
Thank you, Sylvia! I've been stuck many times. First time for Alex though lol. Just gotta keep your wits and work the problem. Thank you so much for watching
Seeing a video like this reminds us that Vegas IS the desert. And occasionally it needs to remind us! Hot and dusty. But this whole thing to see is so sad.I went to Hoover Dam in 2006. And at that time everything was beautiful. The water level was actually pretty normal. Thanks for another great video , Marc… and Alex too!
This was beautifully filmed!! Love this kind of thing. Thanks for doing this!!!
Thank you! That means a lot.
That 2:45 is so shocking. I lived in Vegas in the early 90's and this was always an issue about water levels. Well now the worst has happened. I feel for you and everyone else that lives there. Just my two cents here, tell the developers to stop building in Vegas and the west. No water, no building.
1983 Mead and Glen Canyon were over full pool levels. They will be again. Or you can believe the politicians and non-scientists pronouncing doom......just like COVID, they will control you with water....and encourage more rampant development and not care what happens.
Better plan that last trip to Vegas to “drink” it all in as the water level in the lake diminishes and Vegas becomes just another ghost town of the great Southwest desert. Dust to dust.
Wow. The Lake is sad to see. Thanks so much for keeping track of what’s going on out there Marc. Dice and I hate seeing it drop in levels so bad. Great video and look forward to the next. 🤗
Though I hate seeing what's going on, I love making these videos. You and Dice are great friends. Thank you
@@TheOtherMeLV 🤗🤗🎸🤘
It's definitely scary stuff, with the levels getting so low and especially with what is coming up above the surface lately! Great video as always Marc 👍💙
Sad to see it so empty. Thank you for the incredible images!! Almost looks like Tatooine
Haha it does
Awesome Lake Mead update. its sadly insane that boats are sitting on the lakebeds floor. You wonder its story or like the barrels, even the bodies that THEY found. l do hope that YOU,Marc, find an amazing treasure while out there at Lake Mead. Find a bunch of gold.❤
You are totally awesome, Karen. We are totally looking for something newsworthy and really hope we find something on one of these outings. Thank you so much for supporting.
This blows my mind. I was at lake mead back in 2019 and saw the writing on the wall with the dropping water levels. Sad to see what I thought is coming to. Glad I got out of Orange County Cali when I did. I’m happy in Flori-da.
Hopefully you don't vote for the same crap that turned commiefornia into what it is. If you want to vote that way move back.
@@darryladams519 🤣 I put Flori-da because that’s what my father always called it when we moved out here and he stayed in Commiefornia (funny by the way). I wasn’t old enough to vote when me and my mother left and I bleed red so I believe I am good to stay. Good luck southern Cali looks like it’s going to get worse for them if that can happen.
Hey Marc I just love these lake Mead videos you make, it’s so unreal to see the water drying up and very sad and scary too. Thank you for showing us this. And it was really great meeting you in person on Friday night…you made my day! You rock Marc, a great guy! 🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦
You were an absolute pleasure to meet and it was my honor. You made me laugh when you blocked me at the exit and your gifts were awesome. I bragged about how cool your gifts were when I got home and its something I'll always remember. A TRUE memory. Thank you.
Hi Marc … the pleasure was all mine meeting you in person, you are a great person in the chat and even more special in person! I hope all your fame and fortune don’t change you one bit! Looking forward to seeing you again in October! 🥰🥰
My last year here in Las Vegas. Town is so upsidedown it's crazy. They just keep building. Houses will reach Mt Charleston in another year. Lake wasn't designed to provide for millions of people.
If Lake Mead actually becomes dry, it will probably stay dry.
Like #224 Excellent video. I wonder what was in that barrel. I'm looking forward to more updates on the situation at Lake Mead. Have a good day
I want to find barrels still on tact lol. Thank you, Stef. You have a great week.
Good morning Marc & Alex, be careful and enjoy your day.
You as well my amazing friend
Thanks for a look at the lake that most people won't see. Great footage.
Wow! Those boats are kinda creepy! That cracked ground is pretty wild😳! And those perfectly round holes…I said Aliens to myself…and then you said Aliens 😂😂😂…I knew it 🤣! Dang…y’all got stuck😳! This area is so worth exploring👍 Thank you for sharing!!!
Wow, that is just crazy!! Thanks for sharing this out.
😂 the intro 😂
Awesome Job on the video Marc, So sad to see Lake Mead so low on water. 👍
Thank you, Lloyd. It's scary really
Heisenberg....love it. This is crazy, the cart, the barrel, the boats....wow! I love the music. Wow...beautiful camera work. Geez....gotta get a 4 wheel drive. I cannot live without mine. The blocks of dirt is crazy. I am with you! Aliens! Thanks for the update! Great stuff
Senior shopper left the cart after leaving a grocery store and forgot where his car was parked.
Awful long walk from the parking lot lol
Rumour has it that the old geezer is still looking for his car.
You will be a senior on day soon. Be respectful.
@@marshafawns4322 l'm 66, I've been that person with that shopping car
I think that might have been me, but I've never been to Lake Mead!
Shocking. I know its been getter lower for many years, but this is getting ridiculous now. How can it recover from this. Great vlog Marc
Thank you my brother. Unless we get a Noah's Arc storm, It really can't come back. They'd have to pipe water back in at this point.
@@TheOtherMeLV problem with that.. Out would cause massive mud slides. The ground is to dry and compact to absorb it. It would fill the lake probably.
Sadly, there really isn't anyway to bring the lake back. IF it were to fill back up naturally or artificially, it would have to be slow, continual rain/water over a period of YEARS. Torrential rains or piping tons of water in a short period of time - less than a year (if it could even be done), would probably just cause sinkholes and/or mudslides. They hoped to fix one in Geogia, late 1990s or early 2000s... it was fruitless. Really sad and scary stuff. The last time I was in Las Vegas was 2007. The lake was beautiful then.
Half dozen years to decade of good winters in a row when it comes to snowfall in Rockies should fix all of reservoirs in Colorado river.
Sad to see the lake disappear 😣 cool video and thanks for the guys helping you get unstuck.👍💯
Yes they were totally awesome for helping us out. Thank you, Brad
Just Catching up on your Lake Mead stuff 🤘🤘… well put together Marc …. No more getting stuck !! #KeepAlexHappy 😂😂
Omg I can’t believe you guys got stuck! That’s crazy!
I've been stuck many times lol
This is so sad 🥲. Yeah the yeti was out there looking for water 💦 lol
Very interesting and sad...
The lake is now lower than they planned on...
With the population boom in Vegas we could run out of water sooner rather than later...
Great video again from Marc...
Have a Great Day!!!
keep updating us 😢🙏🏽💯
I plan on going every 2 weeks
Beautiful scenery 😍 Thanks for sharing!
Very interesting upload my friend! Thank you for sharing, stay connected..😍😀👍
Thank you so much for watching!
Oh wow! This is interesting, it's really drying out. I need come out to lake mead with a metal detector lol. Great job friend! 🥰💜🤗
😂😄😄
I believe that in another video that it’s illegal to take anything that is uncovered from the lake because it’s federal land so it’s federal property
WOW that's so crazy I haven't been out to lake it years but theses videos are SHOCKING the levels are so low I heard it's but to see it is just crazy stuff.... Thanks
Lake Mead is 182 ft down. The lake at full pool is 532 ft deep. So its a good ways from being empty.
Can't wait till Friday live with you! Keep your limbs safe & well
It’s really sad Uncle Ken, Grandpa & Grandma Jones and Nancy & Larry would go camping practically every month at Lake Mead. Thanks Marc & Alex. Aunt Kay
Hi aunt Kay! It is very sad and only getting worse. I have many fond memories of the lake myself.
Geez, this is eye-opening. We need to act now. Imagine 20-30 years from now.... 😮👀👀 Thanks for going out there in the wind and heat to give us this on the spot update! 😻😻👍👍
There is no 20-30 yrs .... the world is on the edge of the Great Tribulation right now ..... Luke 21;36 kjv
@@rvrandy1710 humanity will evolve and adapt. Just like we've always done.
So take your doomsday cult abs go. Humanity is trying to grow up and deal with problems instead of ignoring them
Climate scientists have warned about this for decades. Its sad we found listen them.
@@That.Lady.withtheYarn soon you shall see ...... real soon
I think I read January they are fucked if they don't cut down consumption
Poor Alex,but I’ve almost gotten stuck in sand and that feeling sucks
LOL I've been stuck many times
Amazing grass growing back even after being under water all those years and trees
This really SUCKS! I remember when the Lake was so high and constantly had to release the water to keep it from overflowing. I just moved from Las Vegas, and I hope everyone will be OK.
That shopping cart is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen 😍
Man, I was pushing my cart to the Slabs with a full load of Old Milwaukee's best but the midday sun got to me and I ran out of beer. Next time I'll pull one and push one and wear a little fagbrella to cool my brain.
Actually I um, borrowed the cart from Albertson's, the left front wheel wobbled causing my consumption of Old Mildog's to exceed my calculations. Not enough fuel is a killer, just ask Jimmy Doolittle!
Learn from my mistakes, next time I'll rent a Caddy from Avis, damn it gets a tad toasty in the afternoon.
Hard to believe that this Giant lake has completely dried up.. Two weeks ago it sure seemed at least 3/4 full. If that's is the real deal, then Wow.. That's unreal...
I have videos from 2 and 3 weeks ago. It's a lot worse than being led on. Thank you for watching
Very informative and fun hiking trip to an unusual time and place.Thanks for the post!
Being the engines are in upright position....is it safe to assume that the drain plug was left out?
I have no clue lol. Just know its been down there a while. There are a lot of boats tipped over and upright vertical though.
Your doing a Great job man , keep up the great work .
There is a ZERO % chance it will run dry! ZERO!
Hi could you answer a question, What will happen to the B-29 Bomber that lays at the bottom of Lake Mead covered in those Quagga Mussel's.
Hi Marc it would be interesting to do a revisit if these after the bad weather over the winter . Going to see it next week from the UK . Love your documentary style videos
Seeing the reality of the drought and extreme water loss at Lake Mead is a very serious situation for Southern California.
When looking on Google Earth throughout California, all the lakes are fringed with a white appearing shore line. That is evaporated wate area, some smaller lakes have no water left in them. Makes me wonder about the condition of well water supply on private properties in Central California. 🤔
Thanks for your coverage of Lake Mead O.O
Those circles in the mud are supposed to have drain plugs in them. That explains the Lake Mead water loss and the newly formed lake in China! :=)
Hahahaha
If it was fish beds they be a bunch close together,not fish beds
Just a coincidence,idk maybe the tunnels are filling in with water
Jimmy Hoffa was the body they recently found in that barrel. Hmmmmm. I mean it's possible.
LMAO
Does your suv have traction controll ? It's better off when in soft ground , or else one axle will spinn and you sink from skidding
Just curious. Do you know if there are any plans to clean the debris out? Again, just curious.
I really don't know. I haven't seen any news on it. They should get some of the boats down that may fall and hurt someone
Thanks for letting me know, it would just seem like a good time to do it. You're right, they should get those boats flat on the ground for safety.
These are troubling times.
I'm from Northwest Pennsylvania I've never seen a Jeep with two wheel drive great video
7:02 the ground looks crazy and possibly dangerous!
Time to clean up the Lake Bottom and while your at it recover that B-29 as well.
Nature will bring the lake back when she is ready.
My sump pump has been going off every 8-10 minutes everytime we get a good rain, we're suppose to have an underground spring under my neighbors garage. My house is up on a hill. I think my basement floor is level with the street in front of my house. When it doesn't rain for awhile, the sump pump goes off about every hour ( maybe cause of that underground spring).
Sad to see thanks Marc another great vid . The evil laugh always makes me laugh
LOL thanks, John
Nice photography man. Guitar. Sobering.
Thumbs UP Marc, See ya when I Return to Vegas & Fremont extended stay June14th-28th
Helpful hint for driving on sand .... let 25% of the air out of your tires which will increase your tire footprint by 200% and dramatically increases traction. I shoot regularly in a sandy dune environment as well as drive on snow with rear wheel drive which is dicey if you do not prepare your vehicle for it. Many have died in the desert in Nevada, new Mexico and Aridzona because they didn't accommodate for sand ... also don't keep bottled water in the hot sun in the back as they will burst leaving you with not very much. Yes, a few people have died that way as well in the past ... got stuck and had no cell service and their water supply broke. They died ...
PS - If you drop your shift (if automatic) into D1 or D2 you will increase traction instead of spinning your tires. I've driven in snow storms in that gear as long as you are not driving over 40 mph you should be fine.
With a very low snow pack this year in Colorado Lake Powell can only let out only so much. The need for electricity water is more important than just water. At the moment it has enough water to sustain water as well as electricity from Hoover for the next 12 months, no problem.
I can’t even imagine this. Did two dinner cruises on Mead in the early 2000’s. It was just beginning to get low then. Wow
I like this change in content. Good job!
Thank you. I have a lot of this content on my channel. I try to show as much around Vegas as I can that's interesting to watch.
Good video keep up the good work .
Thank you!
That was such a good video.. crazy stuff out there .
Do they have any plans on how they'er going to save Mead, and Powell lake ? Do they have any plans to clean up the lake bed ?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yer killin’ me……it’s a dem state, destined to fail one way or the other!
saw where there are new shafts to centralize water recovery
The Hunt for Jimmy Hoffa now that would be a fun adventure
With us? It'd be a freaking riot lol
Thanks!
I visited Lake Powell in late 90s went back in 2006 couldn't belive how much water level had dropped and now I hear you can't get to rainbow Bridge anymore !
I know the spot: My last three trips-boat never showed, tip of boat showing, and then boat completely sitting on dirt. I was so sad!
love the rv color
Still can’t believe the lake is gone😲
1:13 Holy crap! There was a Jeep Cherokee under water too!😂 4:54 They'd do ANYTHING for The Other Mees 😆 6:55 Looks freakin COOL!
That looks about like when they drain the lake where I live just to do some Bank repairs
I was there about 4 years ago & it was dry then. But 2 years later it was full. Lake Mead goes up & down due to rain & the dam.
Are there some crocodiles in the bottom of the lake , is it safe to bring the kids swimming there , are there lifeguard on duty there during the day , are there any grocery stores close to the lake that sell kiddy stuff , we are planning to go there , what is the best time of year to visit, some say it gets a bit hot in summer time would it be better to go in winter , looks amazing .
It’s absolutely insane what’s happening out west right now I wonder what’s going to happen to the big city of Vegas when lake mead completely dries up
Is there going to be any effort to clean up the boats, barrels, shopping carts when they become exposed?
How deep is the settlement dirt from top ta the actual bottom?
From what I could see, a couple of feet atleast
I also just saw something on the news the other day that it dropped something like 20ft in one day… sad is an understatement, more like sad and scary. Once that water level drops below the turbines that run the Hoover Dam all of the electricity that it generates will completely stop for 1.3 MILLION people in Nevada, Arizona, and California. Arizona & California get most of its power from the Hoover Dam!
Could get a bit dark in LA and Vegas when they shut the turbines down. You know the difference between California and the Titanic, don't you? The Titanic's lights were on when it sank.
Water situation sucks for sure, but Vegas gets less than 5% of its power from Hoover Dam...
Try again....
Wow, so sad the water is gone!
It's terrible how water lost
My State is full ty for passing by lol
i lived at lake marina for 2 years in 97 whats it like over there ?
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
Enjoyed the video thanks
Round holes are fish beds
See now I learned something, thank you.
It will come back. But, what's ur opinion on either taking this opportunity to drag sunk boats and toilets out, or just leaving it until it gets covered again? 🤔
It's way down but it's far from empty
Some see Lake Mead as half empty.........others see it as half full.
