Hey Ryan, It's not a California sotry, but the ''Dam-break in Georgia'' is interesting. I will send you the info. Great story on the Mega-Dam Catastrophe!

Reminds me of the bubbly creek down where the Chicago stockyards used to be! I remember seeing it gurgle on warm days years ago.

Great Video!

13:28 There is no "New City's Community College" by that name. Perhaps you meant BMCC, Borough of Manhattan Community College? CUNY (City University of New York) has numerous community colleges in NYC.

Mulholland wasn't really an engineer, only self-taught and he ordered the increase in the height of the dam which it wasn't in the original design of it

Well, this is why they don't allow "self-taught" people design critical infrastructure. It is said, that when Eaton (Mayor of LA) and Mulholland went up the Owens Valley to steal their water (which pretty much started the Water Wars) in the early 1910's, , you could follow their path by the empty liquor bottles, lol...

Titanic syndrome: Man says, "We got this." Nature says, "Hold my Beer."

The answer to the title is not in this video. But it is obvious, money. There's no reason to spend the large amount of money to break these things down

My mother-in-law, Dee, was a survivor of this disaster. She was 20 months old. They lived between the Santa Clara River and Bardsdale, one of the towns wiped out by the flood. As the wall of water hit the back of their house her Dad grabbed her and escaped out the front. Her mother and 4 siblings perished. As the water rose they got caught up in the branches of a large tree that had been uprooted from behind their house. Holding onto the tree they were swept 20 miles downstream. Most of the people that had managed to grab and use debris to stay afloat were eventually swept out into the Pacific Ocean and perished. The tree Dee and her father were riding came close to the to the north side of the river and the tree grounded for a moment, just long enough for her father to free them from the branches and swim/wade to shore.

Either you bring the water to L.A. or you bring L.A. to the water

I've driven through lower Wacker a few times and walked through parts as well while visiting first time though I had no idea what was going on and my GPS was of no use figured I would drive until I resurfaced and get my bearings again,

Ah, yes - the notorious failure of the Vanderlip Dam…

When I was a youngster my father had told me a story about that disaster he told me his aunt and uncle where on traveling on a bridge when it was washed out there bodies or car where never found .

I lived in what is now Santa Clarita, near San Francisquito Cyn in the 1980s and visited the dam site many times. Most recently just last year. It's a spectacular and emotional hike. Driving from there west on CA126, close to where the flood waters traveled, it's almost unbelievable how far the wall of water traveled. The book Water for Angels by Lee Standiford is recommended reading for those interested in this event, its background and resulting impact.

So much for "Self taught" engineering.

Yo I love Dam videos of California..

Check out the movie Chinatown .

Mullhullen stole all the water from. Bishop California. The government stopped him at China Lake.

the wall of debris and water made it all the way to the ocean. which is an hour drive from santa clarita

Was there a reason the concrete counterweight wasn't blocking the track?

LADWP has only done token acknowledgement of this disaster.

The crime didn’t start because of the taxes only, it was because of the welfare state. If poverty and discrimination cause crime, then why was Harlem safer during the 40’s than the 80’s?

12:50 It's not used by "some" trains. ALL 6 trains must loop via City Hall station to go back to the Bronx.

Eww a Bears fan (Just kidding still love the channel) 🧀

Services. As in houses for companionship?

CLICKBAIT. All this info is 'old history'. I learned every single bit of what was covered in elementary school and middle school in the late 60's and early 70's. So how about what the title promised and find some remaining artifacts. I know there are still some bunkers laced around the islands. And there might be old storage depots that were buried into the hills. While we all (probably) know of the Arizona memorial, there are other memorials that are less well known, and I am sure we would all like to hear about them.

He should have mentioned the dimensions of old Comiskey Park.

To this day, the liberals shake their limp wrists at the sky because they closed down the bath houses.

I feel.like they are lying about the creature

It's forbidden because it holds gold from other countries. I wouldn't want people around my gold either. Haha..

I remember the steeplechase and those wooden horses. Rolling around the top of the paladium.

In the UK every locomotive has a dead man's handle, without it the engine will not move

Bars are almost totally nonexistant in federal correction facilities. In 2006 in the MCC, the only bars were barred doors separating the two sections of the high security floor, and those might no longer be there. In MCC Chicago, FTC Oklahoma City, and 4 FCIs, I saw bar doors in usual use only in the weekend spent at FCI Terre Haute. The normal cell door is a heavy steel door with a narrow vertical window and a small horizontal door for handcuffing and passing meals and other things through.

To think that water won't run out is shear arrogance. Mother nature does what she wants when she wants. Keep building homes and golf courses L A. So stupid

Basically the US transportation system is lacking in upgrades and maintenance, its caused so many deaths even now in 2024

There is considerable evidence that FDR and the Navy knew the attack was coming and did nothing. America was in an isolationist mood and the tragedy was used as a spring board to get the US in the war. This was not the first or last time Americans were set up to be the victims of enemy attacks for political reasons.

My Dad usually rode that train but not on that day so he missed the wreck. Dad loved trains and always rode in the first car. He got on the train in Belmar (NY & LBRR) to NYC

The pine barrens are nature's version of the backrooms

Just realized I'm paying morecattention to the stories in the comments than the actual video lol. It's a fascinating place to be sure

I thought this video was going to be about what happened to the infrastructure and would include maps of lines and pictures of it. Still, I found the video interesting.

Good! Its hideous brutal hard architecture.

One good "mystery" to straighten up would be to strainghten, to begin with, the reel history behind the history that is being served us!!... which is made up of it's good share of propaganda!!... The American governement at the time, with the war monger Roosevelt at it's head, worked hard to force and trick the american public into the war, knowing perfectly that those were squarely against it, especially after the same trick had been played on them in 1917, with the false flag sinking of the Lusitania. This time, Roosevelt and it's devious counsellors had to find a trick that shock and shake the american public to it's core, to allow them to enter the war much early than they had in the 1st WW, coz war is associated with power and a lot of good money for the ones that pretends to drive the people... It appears nowaday that some personnes high up in the Japanese spheres of power were in cahoots with the same people that pretend to control America, pulling the strings that are really behind what is happening on the surface... Evidently, the same applies for both wars against Germany. The funny thing is that even now a day the same way of travesting the events is still of actuality... In the war Ukraine/Russia, the narative goes the same way, where the main medias (which were already at work during the 2 WWars... the tool that serves the powers to social-ingeniers the people) explains to the people that Russia has started it all!!... Hopefully, such a narative of our history constructed on lies of "infamy" are awakening more and more people...

Didn't anyone notice original spelling, "drive in theatre". Interesting. Why did that change?

0:00 - 0:05 yes it does, just look at the windows lmao

They were definitely built like this on purpose nobody is that incompetent 😢

I have crossed the Causeway many times. I see the choppy waters and sailboats on the lake that look like miniatures. A little unsettling at times.

I was at Comiskey Park for disco demolition night.. We got to slide into 2nd base a couple times until somebody walked off with it...then we sang the national anthem will Bill Veeck

The Socialist camp site AKA NYC spends billions on handouts to criminals,,they don't intend to clean that polluted water, they want more of it
