Typically karst areas only, otherwise we drill to underground aquifers like porous bedrock past confining layers that hold water. Most are not underground caves but layers of porous substrate like sand and gravels, bedrock fractures
Do you have a pic of how you fastened your camera to the downhole rig? I’d like to do the same for my old well, but don’t want to risk losing my camera.
I think it'd be neat if somebody did a bore exploration video like this only to find small critters living in some water-filled void. It would be an opportunity for doing some science at that point. (If things could live off of deep ocean vents, then why not some other mineral consuming bacteria?)
and this is why my former landlord told me not to drink out of the tap it was well water, that shit stunk and gave me heartburn. i thought wells were clean
PVC casing? And it appears badly ruptured. Well casings in the NE are typically steel and about 50’ long. 100’ if you have a well driller who isn’t a gambler. And an aquifer that low would be a sign to move. Cool video tho.
I'm trying to figure out the insane pump you need to get the water up this high, or am I missing something here? (drilling wells isn't very common in The Netherlands, where I'm from, though they used to be more common in rurar areas back in the days)
No normally, the PVC extends to stable rock. In my area casing typically is only the first 60-80ft of a 200-foot well. Below that, the bedrock will be fractured, allowing water to flow. This well appears to be drilled down into an aquifer that looks like it has been pumped dry. This is not what a well typically looks like inside. At least in my area. The purpose of casing and casing grout is to keep surface water out of the borehole in order to prevent chemicals and pathogens from the surface groundwater from entering the well. Casting is also used to keep soft layers from collapsing into the borehole, but casing is expensive so it typically stops at stable rock.
Never saw the bottom of a well before so thanks for your video.
Crazy that there's just ground water and MASSIVE underground caves under us everywhere at all times

This is one of trippiest videos I’ve randomly come across 🗿
That ended well.
Well done 👏
Well played good sir, well played
Oh well.
Bazinga
👏👏👏👏
So much effort it too this great job!!
Reminds me of that scene in Bill & Ted where they're falling to Hell but it takes so long they start playing 20 questions on the way down.
"The Texans dug too greedily and too deep, but the Balrog couldn't fit through the well bore, so everything turned out okay."
That's one heck of a selfie stick
amazingo! there's couple of cave! sick
Imagine forgetting to hit record
if he had live feed above he could go further in.
darn lucky that all that bouncing around didn't take the camera off
Well, that was amazing
Liked it allot, what well pump have to go through 😮, I would have stopped and checked that green blockage on pvc 6”
Thanks man it gives goosebumps
Deep hole. Also the water was so clear down there.
well done man
3:19 one of the rarest green smaragds ... 25K just sitting down there
How can you tell it's emerald? Genuinely curious
Looks nothing like a Minecraft emerald, how could you tell

Very cool !!!
Who else got claustrophobia watching this video ???
I did. It got pretty scary mid way through.
Ja
all that dry filterpack. Mined aquifer or seasonal variation? Pump test time? The slots look as though cut with a circular saw as often done.
Casing is broke about 100-150' down. It will let grout, sediment, contaminated water through..its at the 2 min mark in the vid
There's a water-resistant balrog down there.
You are not supposed to mine straight down. Did minecraft teach us nothing!
😅😅 ya but there are no lava and empty space 😅
Tôi tưởng tượng ra đáy riếng nhà tôi . Cảm ơn bạn .....
All's well that ends well
You know that scene in the Lord of the Rings, when Gandalf and the Balrog are falling and falling to the subterranean sea in the depths of Khazad-dûm?
Looks like an episode of "Curse of Oak Island".
The second half of this video felt like being chased by a creeping darkness
This reminded me of the intro to Dr.Who.
Pretty well
What's the green thing at 3:19 ? I'm assuming debris from up top or a piece of the casing.
Upon first glance, I thought it was a piece of plastic until I looked up what jade is.
@@blackout7028 That's makes sense.
it was a piece of tape
I almost hypnotized 😂
Amazing caves😂
I did not know that backwards hyperspace was possible.
It looks like there's been some tectonic movement. Are you going to try to salvage it?
No looks like the aquifer is down. It may be time to drill another well.
I'm too claustrophobic for this shit
@@inkedtoo1097 i'm with ya started sweating watching this
Subject matter with deep content. Thanks UA-cam
good luck getting a pump down that thing.
2:00 bro hit a leaf...
2:20. Looks more like a piece of green plastic scrap.
I do this but with a 20k borehole camera but looking into coal mines for foundation design
What's the green thing at 2:18
What is that at the bottom of the home?

At 2:20, how the hell is a plant growing down there???
Looks like a green tape
I can see Gold there take me in😮
How does the water even comes from this much deep down well.
How pipe was missing in some place? Can any body tell me
omg thats deep.
300 feet, most wells in my area are at 400.
Well done
tnx amezing
How to take the water?
You should had put depth reading as it goes down till touching.
and this is why my former landlord told me not to drink out of the tap it was well water, that shit stunk and gave me heartburn. i thought wells were clean
If you live in an area with a lot of fracking, I would not advise to drink well water either.
Looks like a colonoscopy exam…

Your turd’s POV as you’re rushing to the bathroom:
Wonder what happened at 2:06? A bit of a disconnect.
Tectonic activity
There’s a huge space at the end
There are a lot of caves in this area.
@@andywende4189
How big? 100s of miles of underground caves with its vast network that can make a person lost easily.
I'll bet it caused a moment or two of consternation every time the drill dropped into one of those smaller "caves" and dropped a foot or two.😕☹😮😮😮
Si tratta di un pozzo artesiano ad uso domestico?

👍
2:45 its now in a cave
The well ending
well well well what do we have here

This is likely in the hill country, given that it’s drilled into limestone. And I’ve worked on some wells that were 700 feet deep.
I live in the NE and mine is 450' steel casing. Holds about 600 gallons.
Exactly what I was thinking.
I'm trying to figure out the insane pump you need to get the water up this high, or am I missing something here? (drilling wells isn't very common in The Netherlands, where I'm from, though they used to be more common in rurar areas back in the days)
This is why "can't find the hole" jokes exist
It's a bore not a well...a very dry bore, that aquifer is depleted.
Well...
I’m a little confused, I thought the pvc was suppose to be submerged in the water. How do you guide the pump to the water?
Normally it is. This well has a low water level, maybe from drought.

Loch Ness monster colonoscopy
3:24 i want to sit and live there.
What a horrible feeling watching that
Well I’ll be damned
Whoever drilled that well ought to be sued. 10-20 feet with no pipe? No gravel? You can see where the foot has been sitting stuck in the clay.
Jimmy Hoffa ?
🏊 300 3:35
Don't drink the well water in Texas .... ✔️
Phone numbur pls
3
Question what are those cut slits looks like 3 two on the top and one at the bottom they start pretty deep 2
When the water rises because of much rain or other cases, it can sink into the ground trough these cuts so it doesn‘t rise til the top of the pipe
Cool thanks
🤦 damn I should have realized that again thanks
It's to let water in from the aquifer, a pump is installed in the bore to pump the water out.
oil well right?
Water
D-did you see oil or water down there?
Bhai aapka contact no send kijiye
Kya karega
