Unclogging Badly Clogged Swamp Culvert With Overnight Camera

- I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards. Thanks for watching.

Beavers going around, adding ribbons to branches to warn of Post10 being in the area.
Haha
😂😅
You mean chew marks lol
😂😂😂
💯
Why is this one of my favorite channels on TH-cam?
No politics ✅️
Learn new sh*t about beavers ✅️
Someone showing a passion for something ✅️
Instant replays ✅️
And last but certainly not least, absolute edge of your seat commentary ✅️
Also, Post 10 doesn't "beg" us to subscribe/ hit like button/ click notification bell.
"No politics" is invalid because politics are a good thing, but the other four reasons are 100% true. Also, the fact that he doesn't use clickbait or beg for likes/subs.
@@ThunderTheBlackShadowKitty politics don't need to be in every corner of life. It is important, but people need a break from it
@@ThyHolyNickel94 Agreed
@@ThyHolyNickel94 Thing is tho, people often use that as an excuse to just not get involved in politics AT ALL, which is shameful & selfish. So I don't think that's a valid excuse either. Fact is, US politics DO touch every corner of our lives. We can try to say it doesn't but it does, and unless you get up and enact change, it won't get better.
When the first plug came out of the downstream end of the first pipe, I actually got excited and said, "Ooh!" out loud.
Thanks for taking us along, Post!
The thing I love most about this channel is the wild life, the beautiful countryside and this chap driving about without political commentary just keeping it simple. Thanks mate, keep up the great work
Going around in the forest and not seeing other people for 5 days sounds heavenly. Thanks for bringig us on your trip, Post!
Cedar wood is great for burning in the fireplace 💗
Thank you so much for these lovely videos. I'm suffering from depression and your soothing voice and the lovely scenery are helping me cope with it. I watch all of your videos - they are so comforting.
Me too. We are enjoying this together, even if only through chat. Wishing you the best.
@vanguard me three. It always makes me happy to see a new Post 10 video in my feed, and he seems to be uploading so, so many lately, it's fantastic.
Yeah!
Misery loves company. Thanks for the comment, I can relate too. 😢
@@Ginger51 I hate that other people are going through this absolute hell, but the fact that we can in some small way help one another by sharing our experiences and things that help us does give me a little comfort. One day at a time, though. We can and will get through this, I know it in my heart. Blessed be.
Those little beavers are most industrious, clever little creatures. I just love them to bits ❤
Seems like, when you are having to poke your rake handle through a stout blockage, might be wise to carry one of those steel plumbers probes, the ones they use to jab into dirt to find pipes and such. Those would go through the mud with a bit more authority than the handle on your rake. They are pointy, sturdy, and carry more momentum per poke. Great vid and good job, Mr Post10, sir.
True. BUT might kill any beaver or other small animak in there.
@@marypatten9655 true, although anything tough enough that the rake can't poke through or move effectively, is highly unlikely to contain creatures, especially if its already had a probative poking from the rake handle first! Most creatures are risk averse, and won't hang around, waiting to get hurt. At the first sign of significant activity, they'll either attack, or flee.
@@marypatten9655 Unprobable
@@jamesmillerjoImpropable, I think you mean.
😳
Good catch with the butterfly. They've become so rare where I live that you only see the occasional loner here and there. There used to be swarms.
A 72 minute video?!? I’m gonna grab a drink and enjoy this 😄 Thanks post10! 👍🏻
Popcorn is TH-cam standard choice of snacks to go with your drink for longer videos:-) Joining you.
We've fallen and we can't get up! Thanks for saving us!
I went to a fishing came with my girlfriend that's about 150 miles north of Lake Superior. A road to the camp is an old logging road that's over 100 miles long. We drove for over 5 hours without seeing anyone. The wilderness is beautiful but, if your truck breaks down, your in trouble. No cell service. At the camp there's no internet, TV or radio stations for many hundreds of miles. If you want to listen to a news or music, you have to bring a shortwave radio. We were listening to a shortwave broadcast from Texas.
Ham radio and a backup separate battery source.
40 meters in the day
and 80 meters at night as well as 2 meter FM and Upper sideband can be deployed and easily get
100 miles plus radius from your truck.
Ham radio license are only a
test away for entry license.
"Guys!, when did this happen 😮" like we were right there and just didn't tell him 😂 Most immersive channel on youtube. I actually felt guilty for a sec 😂
I can literally hear the beaver coming back to the pipe for the fifth time with another branch just to find all the other branches have washed through and going "aw, rats" 😂
16:45 When some of us commenters mentioned a “poking stick” to help locate pipes, we didn’t mention the rake, because it’s not the really effective locating tool. A metal stick with a point and a T-shaped handle (almost like the rake, but pointier, and solid), to stick vertically into the ground in various spots, until you go through dirt and contact the metal of the top of a pipe. It’ll give you more direct pathing of the pipes that are hard to see, on the side you need to dig out. That way, you know exactly where the end of the pipe is, when you poke along the top until you stop contacting metal, and also learn how far down the top of the pipe actually is. Poking through and making sure you’re going into a blocked pipe is a good use of the rake handle, but for culverts you are absolutely lost on, a stiff, pointy, metal rod of any kind can push down into areas you suspect the pipe to be, and locate the exact end you need to find.
35:49 Like here. This is a great place to poke down into every foot or so along the edge until you hit something solid, then stab into the ground between the solid spot and the outflow end, to confirm that it’s the pipe you’re hitting. Then poke in the other direction, away from the known end, to locate the unknown end, and dig there to find the lost end.
Mighty Probe makes these. Shout out to DA :D
My man is loyal to the rake. It's a matter of principle.
@@steveolotu52 It’s not about that. I said the rake handle was used well, it just reminded me of when we talked about (The Mighty Probe) a “poking stick” to locate lost culverts. Also, yeah, shout-out to DA and the Penetrator.
@@wboumans Yup, that’s the one. Although he could weld two pieces of rebar together in a T, and mildly sharpen the single exposed end, and boom, “We have the Mighty Probe at home.” It just has to be sharp enough to poke through dirt, but not sharp enough to poke through metal.
Hope you're doing well in this hot weather my friend
Stay hydrated, the Internet needs ya
Once when we lived just 7 miles down a country road, my husband had 4 deer to jump out and hit our car and once his truck. This is in Tennessee and over a 25 year period. They loved him for some reason. I never hit anything the 25 years we lived on that road but he totaled 2 vehicles. The last was a 13 point buck who hit his new truck from the right rear up the right side and over the hood. Poor guy ran but not far. He actually had hoof prints in the side of his truck. Great job Post. You are the most interesting young man on TH-cam. Thanks for all the info and great videos. ✌🏻🤍
Heck yeah, a good long video from Post 10, good unclogging Bud, love the over night beaver action
Enjoying watching an unblocking video on a bank holiday in uk. You do great work and go to exceptional lengths to keep us entertained. Ps. Spring has finally arrived and we are having long sunny days.👍👍
Couldn't agree more! Been beautiful for days AND we get to round off the bank Holiday with an hour long post video lol
Same here but easter 2024 😂
You 🫵🏼 are such a really decent human being.
THAT’S why we love this channel.
Beaver's: "They see me Building🦫 they Hatin"
Post 10: "Fetch me thy Rake"
One day about a year ago I found this channel and it hasn’t been disappointing watching one video since 😅😅
Your video reminds me of when I was in elementary school in the 1960's & we would see reel to reel films. We all would be excited, knowing that much of the class time would be taken up by the film, but we would see all kinds of nature films, along with international places & history. If our teacher was in an extra good mood, she would rewind the film so we would see everything backward. That might not seem too exciting or fun to todays students, but we got a good laugh seeing people walk backwards, etc. Thanks Post 10 for sharing your adventures in the wild & wide open spaces of New England.
Every time you get near a culvert pipe it reminds me of the video of people fishing in Florida and a gator suddenly appear, near a culvert pipe. I know you don't have to worry about that but it still shakes me a little.
Yay a nice long culvert video love them. Thanks Post❤️
Boo culvert 2
You ever think about putting a waterproof camera and light on a float and sending it through one of the culverts?
Man, I think your work is extraordinary. I live in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) where it never snows and our fun is the beaches. When I see you entering the water at 5°C, I get cold shivers. Also, I have arachnophobia and every now and then I see you going into those pipes with spiders all over the place. Amazing. I watch your videos for hours, a completely different activity for me.
I wish you would include in your videos the coordinates of the place so I could see on the map, on the GPS, the places where you are. Is that ok? I have a degree in biology and electronics (two very different things) and your videos manage to satisfy me in both activities. The electronics part is linked to your cameras that capture your activity and the other, trail cameras that show the nightlife. When you find yourself alone during your work, know that there is a crowd following you behind your cameras.
A big hug and know that your work deserves all my respect.
Think some body should point out to you that the plastic pipe is probably the best of the smaller capacity culverts. 1, they don't rot. 2, they lock together and seal when joined to extend their length without leakage. 3,they are not ribbed on the inside like the corrugated, so no where for branches etc to trap. like the one you were unable to clear, the main problem is the lazy sods installing them too close to the road,, (load) surface, same as the steel corrugated pipes.
All the steel pipe needs is for the stones or the graders or something to scratch them and they rust. All culvert pipes need depth below the road (load) surface so that the weight of vehicles is dissipated to the sides of the trench. Even in this video you came across steel pipe that had holes rusted through, what do you think would happen to your car, if you ran over that section of road. Think of the number of Steel corrugated pipes you have crawled through that have been ready to fail through rust. Tin corrugated culvert pipes are the cheapest of the three options, Concrete, Plastic and Tin, that would probably be the only reason they are used I would guess.
i find your videos so relaxing !!! so nice to see a clear culvert doing its job
Those pipe barfs at 7:36 and then again at 7:52 on camera 2... Glorious!! Made my day!
Your working hard again post 10 there were definitely block those culverts but your the man for the job keep safe and best wishes Andrew south wales uk 👍 👌 😀 🇬🇧
Hope to visit Wales someday. I had a business acquaintance there doing geographic information systems work years ago, that I never got the chance to visit. My experience is the Welsh are really cool people.
Looks like you're having a lot of fun. Awesome video. Thanks for the long one. 👍
Moose poop, skunk and ice cold water. You really took one for the team this time. I was surprised that there was still snow and ice. Maybe this is one that was filmed earlier.
filmed 29th April according to his infrared camera
Looking at that swamp, I was thinking what an amazing jigsaw puzzle that would be. Another great post. Thanks for sharing.
I don’t know why it’s so much fun to watch this. 😂🤷🏻♀️
I love the way you put another camera at the point where the water will come out. And we see the muddy water come first. . . then it gets stronger. . . All great videos!
You Sir, are the Johnny Appleseed of clogged culverts! Traveling the country, doing good deeds for the roads... thank you!
I just love your videos post. Calm, interesting and hella satisfying when you get a good blast going. Thank you for all the hard work you put in and it might be weird but thank you for using 'we' and 'us' like we're right there with you ❤

You're videos have been helping me through one of the hardest times of my life. They make me feel peaceful and safe
@ForestSchweitzer022097 hope your OK, keep strong your not alone, I agree post10 videos are very calming must be the running water and the tone in his voice, thoughts are with you
In case no one has mentioned it, those were light-load shotgun shells. Here in Minnesota, they're used mostly for upland game birds such as ruffed grouse, woodcock, or partridge. Not sure what someone would use that sort of shotgun load for, where you are.
Ducks?
Beavers?
@@jonathanjudd3168 would be unethical to use bird shot to hunt beavers...
doesn't mean that's not what happened but its a waste of ammo
Could be just general plinking, mag dumping into a pile of garbage kinda activities
That clip of the beavers at the end really gives you some insight into why sometimes they build right at the mouth and sometimes they build deep in the pipe. They probably always start at the mouth and as the water moves their clog, if it gets stuck again part way down the pipe, they probably just start stacking stuff in wherever the clog moves to. I wonder.
You should consider using some drone footage which would let you go into areas you can’t get to by foot. I think it might give us a good perspective along with the second camera you implemented in the last couple of years. Love the videos by the way.
This was certainly a very very interesting unclog. I'm really happy to see you using a helmet for safety also. You do a wonderful service. I think that you should do freelance work for all the highway depts. that you help. They should be paying you for your work and your inspections. I've never seen anyone with more knowledge than you about water tables, drainage etc. God bless.
Hey Post, I don't know that you get time to watch much yourself with all the videos you're putting out but when you talked about Northern Canada it reminded me: Theres a great walking documentary by Adam Shoalts (Alone across the arctic) where he crosses Canada solo hiking and canoeing. I think you would love it!
Enjoyed this upload, and the view from the tunnel was great 👍
Thanks Post 🕊🇬🇧
so so impressed post , i love the enthusiasm you have with what you do , your a star my friend .
These videos are so therapeutic. Thank you!
And when that fork is in front and you're walking, it feels like we are part of it!
Hit three of my favourite Post10 on the bingo card.
"This water smells like poop."
*pure cry of joy when a huge clog releases*
*mother of all belches*
When you were trying to do that pipe that you suspected to be pinched and could not get flowing much, have you thought about getting a periscope so you can see under water and see what is blocking the pipe/how badly it's damaged, could also be a cool video to show what a blockage looks like when it's holding back all that water
You ever think about getting a roro rooter type machine and just run it through the beaver clogs?
Love your videos. You do a great job. For sure would not be me in that cold water.
Thank you for sharing your videos.
God bless
Love your videos,good clean content.
Love the clean content. Anytime there is no profanity, no meanness, no politics it is such a gift these days.
Happy Memorial Day post, great video thank you for everything you do keeps me happy on this stressful work day.
You need a flashlight to shine in the open end and take a look at the clogged end and see how bad it is. 22:17 just shine the light in there and have a good idea of what is going on.
Great footage of the beavers trying to rebuild.
Thank you for your gallant efforts out there in stopping the floods across the roads. Love your vids.
I LOVE your videos thank you so much for all of your hard work, knowledge and time 🏆🏆🏆
Amazing difference! I love watching you. Hugs from Canada 😊
Thank you so much for all the effort you put in your videos. It is just totally awesome to watch. Without a doubt my favorite YT channel!
Absolutely love the New England area. Went there many years ago. I would really like to go back again!
Hey Post10, I love your videos. It would be good to have an iron bar to work the rocks loose. When I'm moving rocks in a ditch or a creek, I use an iron bar which is probably five or six feet long, but a smaller one would do. You would get some leverage that way and be able to work things back and forth.
Your photography, staging, editing and narrating skills are impressive
Just curious how responsive the road maintainers are to your ribbons. Do they go "Crap, that Post 10 guy has been out here again!" or do they go "Nice! Someone found the culvert problems for us"
Another really fun video!! Thank you for posting this content!!
Another great video. Keep up your good work. Definitely invest in some overall waiders for deeper waters.
Awesome video P! Love the length.
Caught the beavers in the act finally!
Your enthusiasm is contagious, I love watching your videos
more proof why solid trash racks are important for drainage pipes that aren't regularly checked and maintained.
Those blasts on the first pipe where awesome!!!!
Absolutely lovely area, you're right -- would be lovely to live somewhere where you just don't see that many people. The more wildlife (including the algae and trees and bugs and such!) the better :)
I love this wide and open nature.
This was actually my favorite video you have posted. Where ever you were it was incredibly beautiful. Want to visit it LOL
You have such an interesting active life style, you are great to listen too, thank you, I’ve really enjoyed your video the magical tour, greetings from Grandpa Pete from France 🇫🇷 🙏👍👍
Thank you. My 5 yo and I like watching your videos together. We build (and then tear down) dams in our wet weather creek here in middle TN on our property.
Nicely done, Post10!
you do such a good service :) thank you
19.00 WOW!!! I'm surprised you missed that loud male tree frog brother😲😁🤣❤️
I love your videos man, I'm glad you're still making them. I wish I could do this in my area but I live in the desert so there's never any water, not as satisfying.
спасибо, друг, прекрасная экскурсия!!
Thanks for taking us with you, always interesting.
Awesome bever footage. It looked at the camera as if to say "let me catch you here again @post 10 mister
Thanks, Post. Wow, another awesome video. 😊
i was enjoying this a lot, gonna search/look for more, thanks
Man I can't believe you're not at even 1m subs yet. I've been watching you for years now.
Love this video!!! Keep safe, my friend. Have fun too!!!
Great video Post 10 👍. I'm glad your camera wasn't damaged when it fell over. You need Ghost 10 there with you. Great unclogging!!
Amazing show. Thanks!
Awesome man! Love waycbing your videos. Best guy on YY who does it.
Your Videos are so Relaxing, Exciting, and Curious 👈🏼😂😋🥰 Keep the videos coming Much Love 💝
Great unclogging video! Also great attempted clogging lol
Informative and satisfying as ever. Stay well, post 10.
Incredible. I didn't get how you unclogged the thing with an overnight camera. I thought it was from you raking the water.
Happy memorial Day to you and everyone else please be safe and careful 👍🌞!!!!
Whenever you talk about sleeping in the vehicle the famous tune from the film Deliverance comes to my mind. Another enjoyable video, thanks
Ye gods, man!
You could use a boat hook for the clogs inside the pipe.
the problem is the storage in his car, no room for long poles . I hope his next car will be better for more gear. maybe he can a rack or so on the roof
@@Blackadder75 that's the beauty of a boat hook. They are telescoping. They store at 5' but get 12' long when extended.
It looks like great fun.
Many thanks.
your videos are fab I love wstching what you do thanks xxxxx debbie from uk xxxxx I understand what beavers do and I know they do good things to block things up and help the land to soak the water. Here in Britain we have just started a reintroduction of beavers they are letting them go in areas, I don't know if you have seen any of the news for britain in that there have been afew years and in some places they have been flooded year after year rain and snow. River severn in the same places over and over Cheshire which surprised me and also Scotland which I could not believe. Beavers are only allowed to be released in Scotland eith a licence which I think is brilliant I just hope they will help. thanks Debbie uk xxxxxxxxx
So cool watching the beaver at the end!
Definitely need more down stream adventures after a unclog
Yeah, bring a kayak
Oddly satisfying! Good stuff!
