Mother nature is telling us not to build on a sandbar. The water has always constantly reshaped the Outer Banks. The inlets are constantly changing and sand is always being moved from one area to another.
My nephew and his family love the OBX and they invited many of our family to join them several years ago for a visit and we stayed in a place right next to this beautiful historic pier. Sad to think of places like this slipping away into the sea and disappearing. The sights and sounds of waves is so powerful yet peaceful they draw you back to them and warm your heart and soul like a calming sweet dream during a restful night of sleep. Then one day you awake to realize they are gone.... swallowed up by a raging ocean.... but the wonderful memories never go away. That trip and the Rodanthe pier will remain a special memory of time well spent with my family as long as I live !
😢😮 The battle on Ocean like that. I'm not an engineer, but I think you need bigger pylons and bigger poles. Those don't look strong enough to support a pair like that against ways like that I'd be going with bigger poles and bigger pylons. Thank you. Good luck to you. I'm rebuilding and keeping it for the community. That's nice of you people to buy something like that.
Grew up in the 60's fishing Harrisons pier and buttoning the house down before hurricanes. My grandfather told me Willoughby Spit came in on a hurricane and will leave the same way. Miss fishing the spot runs.
Maybe now they will build one out of something stronger than pixie sticks. Take a look at the piers in Panama City Beach Florida. They now have some serious structural strength.
still building wood - if you don't use reinforced concrete with epoxy-coated rebar or SS rebar noting you build will hold up - concrete pilings is the way to go why to build it and the next storm will take it down - build once right and enjoy for 200 yers to come
Structures at Pompeii show signs of having been repaired. You know, from the earthquake damage (twice, I think). You know, by the people who got buried in the volcanic ash. KNOW WHEN TO LET GO.
If they don't sink concrete pylons at least 50 meters below the water surface, the pier will not stay up. Rodanthe loses 1 - 6 meters of shoreline *_every single year._* That's not going to end until Rodanthe fills in Parched Corn Bay.
I love every pier I’ve ever fished on. Each has its own unique character and I’ve seen quite a few of them go away for good. RIP Grandview pier, Lynnhaven pier , Harrison’s pier , Old Buckroe pier, Kitty Hawk pier, Avalon pier, Frisco pier and I hope to live long enough to see the CBBT seagull pier reopen one day. I hope Rodanthe survives for decades to come. I caught my first King there Labor Day weekend 2002

I have zero sympathy for people who spend large amounts of money to purchase troubled properties * WITHOUT * hiring licensed professionals to first inspect the entire thing, * AND * not having any backup plans in place incase the purchase turns out bad. I am assuming these nieve buyers blindly signed an "as-is" purchase agreement.
I don't understand why people rebuild time and time again. I'll sound like an old man, cities should draw a line in the sand, no new buildings may go in this close to the ocean. Anything swept out to sea across that line can't be re-built
The wild horses are in Corolla to the north , not on Hatteras Island. There are also horses on Ocracoke island but not sure how free range they really are.
What? Wood doesn't last a hundred years when sitting in the muck and mud and sand and silt and seawater and surf and storms for a hundred years? Why not? Gee, maybe because IT'S WOOD?
This is in North Carolina. I will never understand why TH-cam videos never tell us the state.

They expect you to identify the accent..
It's not hard to google "Rodanthe." There's only one.

@@rubiks6 No kidding. The point is the author of a video should provide state and city. There are many states with the same city name.
At some point, people will realize you shouldn't build houses right on the sand like that.
THIS PIER LOOKS LIKE IT WAS CONSTRUCTED WITH PAPER CLIPS AND CHEWING GUM.
How it stood as long as it did is a mystery to me.
it was another pier that was recycled wood. .It's sad how cheap North Carolina is..
Nine homes have washed away into the ocean in Rodanthe. Now the pier. I think Mother Nature is trying to tell you something. Who will listen?

Knuckle head Climate Change deniers?
So deep so thoughtful so much crap stick to your bubble wrap
This video is 9 years old.
Very sad to see iconic structures, such as this beautiful pier, slip away. 😢

Me and a buddy fished off that pier many times back in the 90's. Love the Outer Banks.

Something else lost that will never be replaced. Sad.
What a shame! Is there any effort to clear the rubble from the water?
It might wash out to sea.
It will become a reef

Only criminal organizations can afford to build in this method. You know those who Rob err uhh tax at gun point.

Should have pulled the debris to shore for proper disposal. Now it is a boating/ swimming/surfing hazard.

isn’t there anything else in life you could find that would be more productive than saving a wooden pier that’s collapsing into the ocean
Isn't it odd that, if you do nothing, people will not criticize you. But if you do something helpful, then you get criticized.
I vacationed there for many years and fished off that pier hundreds of times. 😢.
Not anymore.
In France piers not made out of wood for that reason
Very heartbreaking 😢
I feel for you guys , I know you’ve pumped a lot of money into fixing up that pier , only to be torn up again by another storm within a few years.
I fished as a kid off of that pier over 50 years ago. Sad to see the decline of our planet.
Nobody could've seen that coming.
Dont let the insurance company know you cut it with a chainsaw
Too late.
@@kellymcclendon6601 😁
I love old piers. I'll take the collapsed part for firewood.
Unresolved engineering/financial issue presumably
Forget the pier. The dwellings and commercial structures are next to go.

This is so very sad. 😞
Someone is going to have a big mess to clean up down current !
The Good Book tells us not to build on sand
A large part of this pier was destroyed by a big storm, so let’s rebuild it even longer. Oh, it’s getting washed away too? 🤔
What happened to the horses? Hope they are ok.
The wild horses are in Corolla to the north , not on Hatteras Island. There are also horses on Ocracoke island but not sure how free range they really are.
slip sliding away
Listen to this voice
JD
Thats the way she go's ,
Poor construction.
I dunno.. more money than brains. Apparently that's Amurika these days.
I hope it was insured.
Tons of still usable lumber wasted.
Nice
Well let's just throw way more money away again, wake TFU and realize mother nature does not want it.
Stupid is as stupid does
😢😢😢
A mind is a terrible thing to waste
Ahhh!
Rich people with more money than brains.
What? Wood doesn't last a hundred years when sitting in the muck and mud and sand and silt and seawater and surf and storms for a hundred years? Why not?
Gee, maybe because IT'S WOOD?
Wasn't in deep enough...maybe use concrete
Strong safe construction plplplplplease sssssssss
Watching this video, I just listened to stupidity. You go ahead and waste more time and money reconstructing those match sticks.
🎼his name was Rodanthe and he lived on an island near Japan🎶🎵
Ask the Chinese how 🤔
They should of designed and build a better pier.
Then I guess everything should be designed and built better.
Should of? What do you believe that means?
kinda like The Republican Party under Trump 😂😂😂
I wish there were more concrete piling peirs . Make them a mile long and have golf carts selling bait, beer and hot dogs. I would live on the thing.
Cool that’s where it should be mother nature thinking the fact you ruined it they took it
The whole thing is rotten. OF COURSE it's falling apart!
using a sledge hammer to the english language...pass...
