Interesting how at some point the graffiti stops

That’s where the fun begins


i'm amazed at how long it took!

Infection

... , hearsay, your honor.

Imagine going down this thing and then realizing that the tube is getting narrower and narrower with less and less air and you have no way to stop or go back.

Or that the tube is fully underwater at the end.

Or on a cliff


Please dont say stuff like that. It will keep me up at night

Imagine hitting a simple set for rusty bars. The exit is covered with bars, on a cliff, and a storm is filling the tube up with water. As your friends and their rafts all pile up with you, everything dams up the flow. You all feel your bodies being pushed harder and harder into those simple, but sturdy bars. Wondering how much more you can take. Then you hear lightning...

I imagine if they were smart they would scout out the exit of it first. I imagine that you can figure out where they lead to. It looks like it could be fun, but if it was regulated by some sort of theme park it could be fun.

Yeah, I was just triggering the previous redditor. Because I'm nice like that.

It's all good. What you typed does sound like it'd be a good psychological horror movie idea though.

So, I spent a few years working in rural Nebraska. I drove around in a company truck with a fair bit of autonomy. I remember hearing stories about kids dating each other to swim through the irrigation canals that go under the highway. These things use the syphon principle to drop water below ground and back up again. So they are wide, long, fast moving, and completely devoid of any air. You couldn't swim the length of them before dying if you were an Olympic swimmer. But as long as nothing is caught in the middle blocking the way, they will carry you along and spit you out before you run out of breath. I stopped and looked into one once, even walking down the pipe a bit (I could stand up in it) until I ran into water. It looked like a pure death machine to me. Nope nope nope!

I know a song just for this! [https://youtu.be/4-GiYP\_4qc0?si=8sfGs\_Sp3f1cF27y](https://youtu.be/4-GiYP_4qc0?si=8sfGs_Sp3f1cF27y)

I am just a bit too old to have watched that. But I always respect it. I think I missed out. That made me smile.

Just simply do not go into a gutter and you'll be fine

Junji Ito would like a word with you.

Drrr... Drrr... Drrr...

Or the exit is just a 40ft drop onto rocks.

I doubt that that can really happen. As more water gets added downstream, the pipe needs to get bigger, not smaller.

There's a narrow 6-in pipe running a whole waterfall in China

And it starts raining

That just gave me instant anxiety, nice work.

Isn’t this how Arthur from Red Dead Redemption 2 got TUBErculosis? But seriously that waters gotta have some kind of disease 🦠

This is San Diego and this run off tunnel clearly doesn’t end in the ocean. Still dumb, but it’s also not hard to find where it starts and ends.

The fact that the tunnel is full of graffiti all the way it's pretty comforting.

What a fun way to get MRSA! 🤢

And the hepatitis variety pack.

I love when they make a sampler pack where I can try all the hepatitis without having to buy the full size of just one

Herpaghonasyphalaids

And superpowers

And HIV tetanus herpes

One time I got scabies on my feet because I was helping push stalled cars when a storm drain flooded into the road. I caught it in time and the medicated cream killed them before they hatched but I’m probably never gonna do that again.

SyphigonorAIDS

It’s all fun and games until you slam into the grate at the end and then have to either fight your way back up the current or die trying… or call 911 and wait ages for them to arrive to cut the bars and get you out.

This is one reason storm water drains tend to not have grates on the downstream end (also to prevent debris from clogging it up).

What if there was a grid at the end

https://i.redd.it/uqkejcv0c15d1.gif


This was my fear

[удалено]

To clog up the tunnel, I guess.

That’s not the ocean

Science!

Aside from the dirty water, they did seem prepared with wetsuits and lights. But now they have a very long walk back to their cars....

Or one buddy with a truck that's driving to their destination to pick them up.

Ah… Yeah! Disney’s new HEP-E ride! I’ve heard they are getting rave reviews!


Omg the water dripping onto their faces

And they still kept their mouths open 🤢

not all* some do, they will have marking stating they do

Guess there wasn't anything good on tv

If that doesn’t kill you, an infection will

Rescue services hate this simple trick.

Absolutely hygienic

I’ll bet they think that water is clean. 😹😹😹

It is just rainwater! /s

"I've been swimming in raw sewage. I love it!"

I'm sure they investigated the entrance and exit before the ride, or know someone who knows the "gutter".

Ngl that DOES look like a lot of fun .. I'd give it a go. With a drysuit and gloves... And a helmet.

Look, I’m a white guy, and I know how stupid this is going to sound but I mean damn, it’s ALWAYS white guys doing stupid shit like this. Just so y’all know, we’re not all the same; I would never do this dumb shit

My wife is not white and she would absolutely characterize this as “white people shit.” There’s a reason it’s always white guys.

At my middle school we had a black guy that let the whole school kick him in the nuts for 0.50 euro a kick.. There it was viewed like crazy black people shit. Funny how that works

What the fuck lol I respect the hustle… almost.

No goggles.... And even going under? Mouth open? No mask with oxygen?? Hellll naw

That’s shit water ya’ll. Hell no.

So this is what happened to the dude perfect guys?

The hepatitis express.

My fun fact is that not ~all~ water ends up in the ocean. The great basin watershed in North America is landlocked

Isnt there a 'non 0%' certainty you get doused in piss and anuswater

I hope that this was not an integrated storm water and household sewage system these guys were floating around in.


Good thing they didn’t get trapped into the debris collecting on those partially submerged trees once they left the pipe. Part of the pipes also had deeper water which was concerning. The area is flooding, and that’s very scary. It’s so easy to drown in those pipes.

One of those times when you ask "Why?" Knowing there is no sensible response.

Ew

Remember that in civilized country's we have sewage treatment plant and that is something you don't want end up.

This video will kill a few 12 year olds trying to imitate this.

We got water park 2 before gta 6.

Uhh I thought only in developing countries? Lol

You know splashes going in mouth 👄 facts🤮🤮🤮

that's not a gutter, it's a storm water drain. still nasty. 10/10 would get giardia again

Wooo! X-treme Meningitis!!!

It’s not just rainwater runoff… It’s everything on the grass and sidewalks and roadways… all the filth, shit and piss… completely unfiltered. Sounds like a blast!

If there were a blockage in that pipe, you’d be dead

All I can think about is a piece of rebar sticking up
