    Watching these I am reminded of my apprenticeship days, 45 years ago . We had to wash down these big diesel engines before they were allowed into the workshop .This was carried out on a wash pad which had a drain connected straight to the sewer. to get them clean we mopped on a chemical made from coal oil called Tergosol. Brilliant stuff ,you could even wash your hands in it .After 30 odd years of engine cleaning ,the drain got blocked so a drain cleaner was hired to unblock it. If Ollie thinks cement slurry is bad, this tergosol and oil mixture ran for hundreds of feet in the sewer and was like a thick jelly . The poor contractors jet refused to move it , so they blocked the drain and made a new one...That was the first time I had seen a jet unblocker .

    Hi my name is Raymond and I'm an addict. It started out I was in control and only watched the newest video every few days. Then it grew to watching one everyday. I let my guard down and suddenly I was binge-watching all the videos. Sometimes I'd stay up for days just watching clogged drains. I'd forget to eat and sleep I just wanted to watch clogged drains become open and free flowing. I'm currently in the process of selling off my personal items for a ticket from Louisiana to Australia so I can hopefully watch drains being opened live and in person. I think I might need an intervention!! HELP ME RATTY!! Oh and it's 3:12am here in New Orleans!!!! LOL

    My brother does construction site management in San Diego and he was telling me about all the regulations (and fines) involved with storm water drains. Most lead straight to the ocean so having concrete chunks or slurry is bad. Many locals call the first rain the first flush for obvious reasons. They advise surfers and swimmers to stay out of the ocean for 24 hours after any rain.
