The water probably never turned clear. If it was really a 30 year old damn, the amount of silt and mud that would be released is insane. So by the time the water upstream equals the water diwnstream, there's still be muddy water flowing, or the engineers shut the gate
Opening the sauce gates really flushed out the silt build up behind the dam wall. Really helped in increasing the dam capacity to near where it was when constructed.
The way that sludge came out after all those years of inactivity🤷♂️😤it’s a testament to the quality of the dams building that it survived the tremendous amount of pressure
30 years, this cant be possible. Plus this isnt the spillway. These are called flushing gates, they're meant to flush out the sludge, silt and debris from the lower ends of the water so that these things dont into the intake tunnel and then through the power generating units, as these things can cause damage to the rotors of the units. Ive worked at the powerhouse of a dam btw.
Ok, so I have watched this video numerous times. I just can't stop thinking about the pressure equalization that was happening here ! It appears that the dam had a square inlet and outlet. If so it makes me wonder if the underwater side was covered by a grate ? Or just the opening unimpeded ? If it was either..... anything near that intake would have been torn apart and completely dissipated. The pressure must have been amazing. I'm sure this video is nothing compared to being the person on that deck recording ! TY for the video !
I would have thought that it is essential to open these gates on a more frequent basis on the grounds of safety. That is to make sure they’re actually operational if needed in an emergency.
When it starts with all that sludge coming out🤷♂️😳it just shows the raw power of water and the solid construction of the dam assuming it’s still working
For the people that don't know this is a Soluce gate To pass sediment through the dam. Which a lot of older dams are not built with Them. And the dam just fills up with sediment In barely any water.
Your witticism reminds me of this nerd I knew in grade school and he wanted so badly to be cool, he actually asked his mom if he could swear like all his friends. He somehow found a loophole and went running around saying "dam" this and "dam" that and it wasn't long before his newfound freedom was getting his ass kicked.
Just a little sediment build-up. That sediment can make a positive difference downstream if trapped and controlled. Dams trap sediment. Dams lose water storage due to displacement by sediment build-up. Periodic flushing is good for dams and would be better if the sediment outflow was controlled and put to use. This could help stop the loss of high quality dirt to the oceans and improve farmland. Is there cost involved? Yes! Is there also a cost in not doing this?
Fine clay and silt builds up at the bottom of a dam, other stuff too, that cannot pass through the turbines or should not pass through the turbines. Dams are giant dirt traps.
When someone go into the stall next to you and at first you think you can ease it out and not make a echo of an explosion, next thing you know your at that point of no return and it just lets lose.
When I saw the tremendous pressure and volume of that water, and then saw the water starting to shoot up from the concrete platform above the pipe I was standing on, My ass would have been loong gone.
I can't believe these aren't tested on a regular basis. Every emergency system I've ever work with had to be tested regularly. Some things daily, some things weekly, others at least annually. Just to make sure everything works!

Where is dam located?🙏
@@gireeshkumar511 This dam is located in Jiroft, Iran
I start to poop the same way...just a trickle in the beginning, but halfway through it coming out of me like a firehose...
Would have been great if you did not record in portrait mode.
Why do people do that?
@@ec1628 Because holding a "phone" any other way is really hard. Blame the phone not the person. They're PHONES not cameras!
I keep trying to find long versions of this because for some reason I really need to know how long it took the water to become clear.
This is the longest version
No longer available on the Internet
I feel you bro! Same thing here
Exactly
It happened in Iran maybe it would help you to find

Came here specifically for the comment section. You guys did not disappoint
Opening the sauce gates really flushed out the silt build up behind the dam wall. Really helped in increasing the dam capacity to near where it was when constructed.
I bet that dam felt so much relief after that 😅
Damn!.
For some reasons this is getting recommended to everyone... But I like it.👍
The way that sludge came out after all those years of inactivity🤷♂️😤it’s a testament to the quality of the dams building that it survived the tremendous amount of pressure
Oh that is just wretched and spectacular at the same time. Props to the cameraman for sharing in such a dangerous position.
hi dear andie Thank you for supporting the channel 🌹🌹🌹
@@Johanwilson86 🤓You got it!
😊❤
30 years of accumulated silt makes it look like the dam was defecting.
The power of water is terrifying. In this case mixed with tons and tons of silt. Scary.
Reminds me if that time I thought the milk in the fridge was still good 😳
When you try and find the full thing but it’s just a replay
Seeing the water escape through the cracks and holes on the platform is scary 🤯
Yeah, the guy who took this video - what was he thinking?
30 years, this cant be possible.

There is very little rain in this region of Iran, so after all these years, they opened the dam gate
Thank you for the useful information you provided
Man you are smart
pretty dam interesting
@@Johanwilson86 which dam is this
I had a bad tummy, nd UA-cam recommended this , oh in heaven now ....
it sounded like a DRAGON coming thru the opening, just amazing
1. I'm surprised the gate would open after 30 years.
2. I would be even more surprised if it closed.
The moment that dude realizes he’s standing on a pressurized canister 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 maybe this ain’t that safe?
Me every morning after coffee
What a relief to see it working again .....very joyfull n inspiring
That wasn't a spillway opening, it was Post 10 unclogging a culvert.
Aayy hello fellow subscriber😂😂

Hello dear don blocher
Thanks for watching the video
Like you, I was really surprised when I saw this video. It's really unbelievable
Reminds me of that one time ate at this Chinese buffet got sick.
I feel bad every time I think of Chinese food😂
Looked like some good potters clay squeezing out there!
I've seen this video, I don't know how many times and it's so satisfying every time
That’s one of the most satisfying things I’ve seen in a long time.
The fact that it hasnt been opened in 30 years is a sign to not be standing living or being anywhere near a damn thats been mistreated so bloody long.
When the Taco Bell you had a few hours ago decides to exit your body.
That bolted lid in the floor looks like it would pop open any time!
Canyon: Its been 30 years since we made love
Dam: Say no more.....
Scary to think about the amount of hydraulic pressure necessary to push all that debris out.
No kidding. The PSI's must've been through the roof!
I love how it just slung out mud that was probably the weight of a car like it was nothing.
youtube algorithm has once again united us
That’s some dam good water pressure.
God Blessed America.🙏 amen

Looks like we all clicked the video on same day
‘Well the problem is maam, you have a little sludge blocking your drain.”
When it starts with all that sludge coming out🤷♂️😳it just shows the raw power of water and the solid construction of the dam assuming it’s still working
Now youre in trouble. All that sludge and debris was part of the dams dormant strength. 😆
For the people that don't know this is a Soluce gate To pass sediment through the dam. Which a lot of older dams are not built with Them. And the dam just fills up with sediment In barely any water.
That's a good dam video
The dam mud come out quick
The dam engineer did a good designing
Are there any other dam videos?

I wouldn't dare to stand on such a dam to take a video 😃
Pay no attention to the small spounts coming up trough the platform.
They stood on it as it was doing that? I would have chosen to observe at a safe distance and from a position that was *_OFF_* of the dam.
hi dear nikola
you are right
In addition to the danger, it also smells very bad😷

Its neither shit nor dirt. It is silt which is very rich in water and micro organisms which can be very nourishing to crops if used in farmland.
It can be used to fertilize farmland?
Last night was "ALL You Can Eat Taco" night at Pedro's Canteena!
Im sure this smelled fantastic.
it's just silt
I can only imagine how amazingly rich in nutrients that mud was. The eco system down stream must have loved it.
Assuming the sediment doesn't contain toxic chemicals from upstream industries and runoff.
@@pahtar7189 It will, every single water way and even the deepest parts of the ocean contain human pollution.
That was a super cool video, it must have been scary there on top because of the noise, shaking and leaks! Thank you for sharing!
Hey Joe, let’s open ip this dam a little more often, say once or twice a year.
Really really cool, but I bet the smell is absolutely horrendous from all that decaying organic material becoming airborne
Looks like the suppository worked after all
Poor dam can't hold it in any longer
Great video. Very satisfying for some reason 🙂
I feel relieved, not sure about everyone else.
Yep, like right after some laxatives and bad constipation for a few days.
years later youtube will recommend this video
I’m Not a dam expert but even the camera man is having doubts when the muddy water is shooting up outta the floor.???😮

That clayberg was 🔥🔥
The cameraman was great, he kept the lens on the interesting parts.

Cameraman after seeing the leak : its time to run😅
😂
I have the same problem with taco bell
When someone go into the stall next to you and at first you think you can ease it out and not make a echo of an explosion, next thing you know your at that point of no return and it just lets lose.
@@carsonhoover5767 battle sharts. Lol
Reminds me of the day after eating Taco Bell for lunch and subway for dinner
I bet that dam feels better!
It's like me first thing in the morning.
Imagine the smell... *Vincent Price* "The funk of 40,000 years...'
Looks like me after being constipated for three days.
Bet it smells lovely.
The ecosystem living at the bottom: Yo WHAT THE FUCK!??
Dam fine work. And OMFG the sludge stream.
That was me after a really spicy vindaloo curry
This exact situation. Rip Krispy Kreme bathroom stall, ex'es car seat, and my old cargo pants.
😲-Beavers living down stream the last 29 years.
When I saw the tremendous pressure and volume of that water, and then saw the water starting to shoot up from the concrete platform above the pipe I was standing on, My ass would have been loong gone.
When the coffee guts hit.....oh yeaaaa!!!

No intro. No sponsor. Bad audio. This video has big early youtube vibes
So?
0:35 Fish " YEEEEEEEET"
Dam! It followed “No Fap” seriously.
As many times as I've seen this video I always watch it when it comes up.
That was some mighty thick mud!
This is bring back my memories, that one time.. I didnt take a $h*t for 6 days stright.
If you’re lucky this comment could get thousands of likes. we’re just gonna have to wait and see
Just don't forget we were among the first's to comment
@@justus1573 Nah, i don't beg....i never crossed 50 likes mark on my comments except once where I crossed 20K likes
It was a risky shoot considering the movement after 30 years
If I created an ad for this dam I would definitely use “self cleaning” 🙂
Once in a lifetime ride for those fish!
Kind of feels like when you've been constipated and it finally breaks free
hahha eating too much chili dog 😂😂
What was the grey solid thing that came out before the water?
silt/mud/dirt build up from all those years
Taco Bell
Sludge
Protein paste for body builders.
Mud
Hope there wasn't anyone Hiking down stream. Normally there's a siren or horns that go off as a warning.
This is me after having my first morning coffee
I bet the people down stream are going to love that!
At the beginning it looked like play doe being squeezed through that opening
Play-do? I thought that was what they made tofu from?
Dam :
Bro, wanna see ??
How far can i pee ???
🤣🤣🤣💯
🤣🤣🤣
When the mres you ate last week finally comes out
That’s one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a while (since the iceberg rolling over🙂)
The morning after 10 pints and a vindaloo!
For some reason that does not look like the kind of place I would like to stand.
And with the gentlest of pushes the world fell out of my ass
Yeah I've seen this before..... I had some bad Mexican over in Puebla and it looked something like this! Montezuma's revenge!!😖
Imagin the shock the fish got going at subsonic speed 😱
I love this video ! It reminds me of me back in my younger days !! 😂
