I very much like the way the drains are recessed from the road. It's so easy to see their location, and it also means it's far safer for a person to unblock the drain.
And a sturdy pair of gloves. Reaching into murky water to remove leaves, rubbish and other gunk makes me a little anxious. Risks: Dirty Syringes, broken glass, malicious traps.
@@Gilly14 Post 10 has been doing it for years, these people started their channel last year. It's a bit of assuming, yes. But as a matter of perspective, to me Post 10 is the name brand, and these people are perfectly fine off brands.
to be honest i had no idea who POST 10 was until i posted my 1st video. then someone commented "post10", after searching the name post10 i found out it was a youtube channel. and to be honest i only drained my neighborhood and a few places. but a friend told me to do other places and record it. im glad to be part of the movement and yes post10 was and is the biggest hit when it comes to drains
having lived in Detroit when I was younger, seeing these neighborhoods brings me back. I now live on the west side of Michigan so still a Michigander at heart!
@antfbi You are right but not necessarily. You could for example move to another locality, but be missing your old home and places. I have sometimes been distracted and thought "I'll just drop into... oh wait that's in my old city". Half my childhood was spent there.
I said "Bless you" out loud when the little guy sneezed. Great work, thanks for doing it! Your community appreciates it, even if they don't even notice that work had been done.
The city is supposed to take care of this. But they lean on their shovels and drink coffee in their trucks. What do you think homeowners pay taxes for?
can you have your camera person back up a little and get the puddle draining not just the vortex? he was so focused on the drain the whole vid. i would really appreciate that. thankl
You’d think the neighbors would be on it as soon as possible. Specially with those old houses. We all know those basements aren’t bone dry all the time. I should know….. my house was built in 1917 and had my foundation redone. Cost a pretty penny but bow I have a full on man cave to escape from the wife.
@@biggestcomplainer This is what gets me. I live about 30+ miles north of detroit and it is the homeowners responsibility to make sure that the drains are cleaned out before a storm.
It took this guy 10 min because he had to post it and get people to praise him. If people did things without trying to be recognized it would be better.
Did you know that the vortex is the most efficient way for the drain-water system to operate? For some reason nature is picking up the best solutions for each obstacle. Aren't laws of physics great?
Quickest way to empty a round bottle is to swirl it to induce a vortex. The vortex will be stable, allowing the air and water in at the required rates, and no gulping.
Wow! Crazy to see and learn of different drains in different states! I applaud you for taking the initiative to do this! If it's your JOB? Then we'll done ✅! Well Done!! But people really need to care more for their lawns and keep the drains clean!! God Bless ✝️
Yo!! I'm instantly subscribing. I'm from Lansing and have tons of family in Detroit. Glad to see The D has a Post 10. That city is on the up and its because of folks like you.
I wonder if Post 10 has a Deputy system for all the newbies out there? Maybe Post 10 should start selling merch like ball caps with "Post 10" fan club?
I had to do this a few weeks ago. One side of the road was under a foot of water. Nobody was going to do anything either. It was that way for 3 days and took less than a minute to drain once the leaves were cleared
Great job & thx for ur hard work producing awesome content. Who would've thought that historic Detroit would be smart enough to place the catch basins in a separate area adjacent to the roadway?
All those fancy houses and nobody can go check the drains? Where I lived in Indy we were always checking the drains. Our basements flooded when we didn't. Our street, our job.
It does look like an affluent neighborhood. Surprised that the drains are not cleaned. I can only imagine what shape the ghettos are in, and Detroit has many.
For those wondering - If the temperature outside is not a problem (and you have no PPE requirement), then shorts, flipflops, and full waterproofs on your upper body is THE best thing to wear during heavy rainfall. Once you get inside, all you have to do is take your waterproofs and flips off, give your legs a quick shake, and you are DRY. Even better, if you need to go out in the wet again, simply chuck the waterproofs and flips back on and you are ready. I learned this during the 'Pokemon Go' craze a few years ago..... while others were going out in jeans, boots, and the like, and having to put all their wet clothing in the drier when they got back meaning they generally stayed in, whenever I saw a pokemon I wanted on the trackers, on went the waterproofs, shorts and flips, popped out a few blocks, hoovered up the pokemon, back home, dry and ready for the next one.
wrong , do you not understand when the water backs up it is from all around , that means its all contaminated water, so your " not even post 10" remark is rediculous
People think the sewer pipes are plugged, when it’s usually the grates. One year in 2018 I think, we were flooded in Dearborn. None of the sewer pumps were working. Horrible going to work for weeks.
I'm proud you 2 thought of cleaning those that's what in Australia should do but I haven't Sean them doing it an they are very flooded Queensland Sydney etc so I'm pleased that you done that good thinking 99 proud
I'm so ashamed of the home owners in this area all they would have to do is stop the car and clean the drain then no more flood well done to you dude keep up the good work
Homie with the slips on is gonna have some serious feet problems if he just keeps letting them soak in that nasty disgusting water. Get some boots man.

no problem. i do scope out the streets that have older residents to help them.

As well as safer for bikes pedestrians and drivers.
Post 10 has taught you well 💪 you just need a sturdier rake!
And a sturdy pair of gloves. Reaching into murky water to remove leaves, rubbish and other gunk makes me a little anxious. Risks: Dirty Syringes, broken glass, malicious traps.
And not sneakers lol
I believe that rake is perfect for these type of drains. Have you been watchinf??
This what we call a leaf rake in the Netherlands. That works great on heaps or clumps of leaves. So good choice!!
...and to blame every drainage clog on beavers
Glad to see others taking after Post 10's good example!
Wouldn't that be assuming?

Nice job but it seems the neighbourhood is a lazy … they could help!
Nice job, way to help out the neighbors some who might be seniors, how fortunate they are to have the drains marked this way
having lived in Detroit when I was younger, seeing these neighborhoods brings me back. I now live on the west side of Michigan so still a Michigander at heart!
That was a redundant sentence
You can’t be a Michigander at heart if you still are Michigander.

thanks for watching
Thanks to you, i had been waiting for the sneeze the whole vid hahaha
Watching the water drain is soothing. Like an exhale
get a bigger rake man
You do that area proud guys. And Im happy that you can work these off the road. Stay well, stay safe.
Poorly designed drainage system. Too bad the homeowners don't take care of this. Beautiful homes.
The city is supposed to take care of this. But they lean on their shovels and drink coffee in their trucks. What do you think homeowners pay taxes for?
This is the city who is in control of them! I have no idea where you got your info but it's wrong!
@@jadepaulsen8456 I agree but if I had a beautiful home I would do the work to keep the curb appeal.
@@barbrn your property..your business. I see your point.
I live in massachusetts and its the same here. The stuff gets caked on top of drains hard. Clear them off when going for my walks.
Glad to see someone who cares, then just complaining about the problem.
Dear James Young 4633. 3 million people, translated to Silicon Valley stipends, are "caring him back."
this guy has hit a goldmine for drain content
Nice to see you're teaching your apprentice the ropes nice work!!
I used to do this as a kid the neighbours thought I was nuts! But we never got no floods! - TOP JOB SIRS!
I did the same thing!
can you have your camera person back up a little and get the puddle draining not just the vortex? he was so focused on the drain the whole vid. i would really appreciate that. thankl
I love the sound of water running into a drain.
The same boy who lost his ship has come back for IT and is now making him play his game.
You do an amazing job. It just too bad the homeowners can’t help out a little.
When homeowners help we wouldn't get this content to watch
If the city doesn't have money and/or manpower to clean the clogged drains, can't the neighbors organize and clean their own drains?
You’d think the neighbors would be on it as soon as possible. Specially with those old houses. We all know those basements aren’t bone dry all the time.

It only takes a guy living on that street a minute to come out and do what you did. to bad there weren't more like you doing this.. Well done
It took this guy 10 min because he had to post it and get people to praise him. If people did things without trying to be recognized it would be better.
It also has an educational effect. A lot of people don't know how easy it can be to clear these up.

In the case of a nuclear bomb, not so great.

Fibonacci sequence. Golden ratio.
Whirlpool. Look it up.
Just one person of the citizens of Detroit was so smart to bring a rake to the road. Thank you!
Nice to see that most of the debris was leafs and natural stuff and not piles of garbage.
Channel is growing like crazy. Great work.
I wish you would record more of the water receding also, instead of just the drain

not my job. just doing what needs to be done
Fabulous work by you both. The drain design just seems destined to clog. Crazy!
Yo!! I'm instantly subscribing. I'm from Lansing and have tons of family in Detroit. Glad to see The D has a Post 10. That city is on the up and its because of folks like you.
I love to watch water going down drains. You're giving me some ideas of what to do in MY neighborhood.
Ey man, keep up the great work on these videos. Appreciate the work.
I think you need to ask for trash bags or a trash can it's all going to happen again if it's not cleaned up
I wonder if Post 10 has a Deputy system for all the newbies out there? Maybe Post 10 should start selling merch like ball caps with "Post 10" fan club?
He does sell merch! If you go on his community home page on TH-cam it's on there x
As a stormdrain and sewer main and watermain installer that design should be fixed by rounding out the curb to make it have better flow and less clogs
Hoping your assistant will get wellies soon
I am always surprised that the residents don't clear the drains. My Dad was always out clearing the ones near their home.
Thank you for taking care of Detroit.
Could that water be put in a pipeline and sent to Texas?
I had to do this a few weeks ago. One side of the road was under a foot of water. Nobody was going to do anything either. It was that way for 3 days and took less than a minute to drain once the leaves were cleared

Thank you for helping our city.
such a small rake can make such a huge difference
The amount of hits for drain cleaning.
This it what the minds have come too, and I looked too.
Good job . But drives me crazy when the grate is not cleared
Let floodgate,s open. Awesome job. Thank you for what you do. The vehicle's won't stall out.
I love your videos and I can’t wait to see what you are going to do this summer
"we all float down here georgie" is the first thing that came to my mind when I started this video 🤣🤣
All those fancy houses and nobody can go check the drains? Where I lived in Indy we were always checking the drains. Our basements flooded when we didn't. Our street, our job.
I find this oddly very calming to watch
Great job guys. Yall deserve an award from the city.
I'm sure you've done this are before, nice to see the locals are maintaining it 🙄
Glad to see you’ve got a yellow raincoat for better visibility. Doing a great job. It’s too bad the city can’t help you out
We need people like this in every block in America.
Fantastic work!
Thank you so much for sharing and caring!
Looks a lovely part of town ..... and those drains needed cleaning badly...... :)
I appreciate you and your work
handy how its easy to find the drains because the shape of the curb
Nice clearing, thanks buddy.
Good job. Our streets use to do the same thing. 👍👍👍
Using what you got juss to make life easier and helping out will definitely inspire others
So happy I found yall , love it fukn mad , stay awesome brother's 👌
thank u
Thankyou drain gangster
Your rake is a magic wand great job❤️🇬🇧ps 👑 Saucerer get your apprentice some wellies 😊
Good video. I'm glad you let the water do the talking.
I can't be the only one thinking of "It" the movie. The coat, the street, the weather and the drains...
Love the content. So relaxing for some weird reason lol I don't really bother watching post10 anymore because all he does is culverts.
Because there is snow where he lives! He will start doing drains again when it warms up.
I agree. Culverts sucks. I miss all the street draining he did all the time.
Why are the neighbors there keep them clean if those neighbors are elderly or unable rake them open
Those look like very nice homes, and a pretty nieghborhood. I didnt know Detroit could have nice places. Everywhere ive been through there was aweful
Yeah. That's the problem with drain grates. This is why I favor those open curb type drains.
Or a domed grate, since those are niched beyond the street at the curb.
Great people! Contributing to help the community is the best!
I would love this job, so peaceful
SO no one who lives in that neighborhood can take 2 seconds to do this?
I thought this channel was for fans of the Swedish music collective Drain Gang who live in the Detroit area.
It does look like an affluent neighborhood. Surprised that the drains are not cleaned. I can only imagine what shape the ghettos are in, and Detroit has many.

Great work as ever, hope you get recognised by your community for all the good you do for free.
It's interesting how the drains are set back from the road.
You are brave. Not even Post 10 would touch those drains with it being more raw sewage and used needles than anything else.
wrong , do you not understand when the water backs up it is from all around , that means its all contaminated water, so your " not even post 10" remark is rediculous
Nice job. Keep them coming!
That has to be the best rake I have ever seen used to clear storm drains. Storm drains are easy to find as well
People think the sewer pipes are plugged, when it’s usually the grates. One year in 2018 I think, we were flooded in Dearborn. None of the sewer pumps were working. Horrible going to work for weeks.
Keep the good work
I like see large swarths of water get reduced to a puddle because of an un glogged drain, it's like popping pimples.
That area had some of the most beautiful homes in it I have ever seen....🥺😔😭😭😭😭 💔
They done tore it all up.
Actin' like fools
I used to worry about the kid in the Vans, but they are absolutely fearless of the water. I see that now.
Beautiful music of water first going down the drain.
what a gorgeous neighborhood.
And nobody that lived around there could take a rake and remove some leaves? Sad. Thank you. Hope they at least said thank you
I'd like to see more wide-angel shots. I rather enjoy watching the road drain.
very calming thanks
Idk but Imm more interested in the unclogging the drain than watching it drain .. I also like to see how much water left the streets
I don't get taking a video of just the drain and only the drain and not see the flood in the street shrinking.
i know what you mean. sorry. but i have new videos coming that show a better view of the street while being drained.
I'm proud you 2 thought of cleaning those that's what in Australia should do but I haven't Sean them doing it an they are very flooded Queensland Sydney etc so I'm pleased that you done that good thinking 99 proud

They might.. But leaves blow all over..
I'm ashamed of them too
@@detroitdraingang5037 thing is it looks an incredibly rich area and they could afford to pay but good on you keep up the good work
And the people who live there, are not capable of raking away leaves of a drain ?
GREAT JOB!! 💯👍😎
Homie with the slips on is gonna have some serious feet problems if he just keeps letting them soak in that nasty disgusting water. Get some boots man.
I do this on our street, chip ice in the drain when it’s clogged, too. I’m the only one who bothers. All our basements backup if I don’t 🤷🏼♀️
This is oddly satisfying to watch.
Cool but don't whip the camera around fast bro, slow and steady wins 👊
So satisfying. Thanks
