- Nothing like randomly meeting your favorite TH-camr Dave Sparks at Lake Mead while making a TH-cam video yourself. Looks like he was headed out to recover a big boat stuck on a sand bar, super cool dude!

Bro you are class act! It was so good meeting you and thank you for being polite and respectful of our fast-paced operation 👊🏻
Dude so great to meet you! You and your team are awesome for helping people in unfortunate circumstances. Looking forward to all of the great content to come! 🤙
Remote trooper I am new to your channel and I am interested so keep up the good work and thank you for your attention to lake Mead. People in California need to learn how precious water is. I've been trying to find what Cody lunden thinks about this situation but this is a wake up call. Keep covering it brother and thank you for good content
Man HeavyD your everywhere I even watched u on Ghost town to sin City to this excellent TH-cam channel I'm impressed on how many people you help I take my hat off to u
Lots of respect for not recording HeavyD. I "think" his video comes out today. Helping rescue a stranded houseboat. Another TH-cam channel did a story, and reached out for any help and Dave responded. Amazing man.......
He's there to rescue someone's boat. Saw his comment on sin city outdoors.
He got Craig’s boat out. It was amazing.
Yupppppp
The guy is like a super hero. 💪
Congrats on meeting HeavyD. He is such a great guy!
Mind blowing that you used to jump and dive off that dock. Now it's just cracked mud all around. So sad. Thank you William.☮️💖🎶
Lots of respect to you for not filming everything they were doing ⛴️
I appreciate that 🤙
@@RemoteTrooper yea man good on ya! It’s nice to see people on TH-cam understand social edict’s. Thanks for having respect
This Homie special... Sparks got that old school perseverance...
Actually is crazy how the boat exit your now driving on.
I cannot begin to comprehend what that must be like. 10foot a month 🤯🤯🤯
My wife and I were in that exact boat launch 3:31 in early may and those fish still had a little bit of a pond to swim in. There was a boat upside down there too that's no longer there.
This was a unique perspective, a little different than what everyone else is doing out there.
He was out there rescuing Craig who’s been stuck on his houseboat for three weeks. It’s quite the story and recovery. You can find it on Sin City Outdoors and HeavyDSparks channels. It was pretty amazing what they did for Craig!!
It's always fun running into other TH-camrs, I've run into expedition overland a few times out here. Few others I've run into that are less mainstream but still always fun to talk to someone in the same community as you
I agree, I was pretty pumped to meet Dave, especially just completely out of the blue.
@@RemoteTrooper ya I ran into our state senator at a McDonald's in Livingston when I was out doing a trip, he was going bear hunting and cool thing is he remembered me from a commercial he did at my work.i made a good impression I guess lol
When the co2 content in the atmosphere of 420ppm equivalent to 12 million years ago meets the environment used to 280ppm of co2 today. Things like this happening all around the world.
Can't wait to see heavy d video on rescuing that guy sin city outdoors came across
That is so cool you were there when heavy d was there. Thanks for sharing the video.
Lake Lake LV… the pinnacle is Lava Butte… good stuff friend..time for a yota!!!
✅✅
Thank you for this video!
Love HeavyD,
He's super cool 🤙
This video is really cool brother. Came here from TRADER™️. Dave is one of my favorite youtubers as well. I'd love to meet him ine day. It's really cool to see the lake as well. It's crazy how low it has gotten.
That had to be a spooky driving across the lake bed. Very cool meet-up. It is scary how low Mead and Powell are.
Yeah man it didn't even feel real. Very strange feeling.
There draining it on purpose like California...great reser
We've had hot temperatures for years what's new? There draining it to cut off farmer or small ag farms so the big guys buy all the land from small guys...like the plandemic...create a crisis to get more power...
I just watched the video where heavy d and 2 other big guys were testing out that little Chinese electric car. Funniest thing ever.
Las Vegas and Phoenix are toast bro.
And get your windshield fixed bro.
Safety first.
Nice reporting.
Stay safe
One day 😅... Thanks bro, I appreciate it 🤙
Get yourself a metal detector you’ll have that window fixed in no time!
Oh the dead fish is where The Other Me channel was last week, there were some gigantic fish that were dead all over. The water must have dried up super fast if they couldn’t get out before it dried up. Very sad!
Just think of how much rain/snow would have to fall to bring water back halfway
Twice the average precipitation for decades would be necessary.
In short.
Powell and Mead will most likely be never full again.
Short heavy rainfall will give short term relief but this is the new norm.
Hard times are here and big changes are required.
Good time to have a clean up event before the water fills up again.
It will never be full again.
I bet they don’t do lakes. 🤣
Really enjoy your videos. Be safe.
“The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord” (Job 1:21)
We used to launch at Boulder Harbor as well. Went down there last year and where you saw the dead fish was a pool of water. The mouth of the harbor to the lake was nearly closed off so we knew the fate of those fish. The ground was still mucky so we did not leave the cemented area. So sad ...
We have to look at the real numbers and the rate the lake is falling is alarming. As a manmade lake, the environment is in contrast to development and that is the real problem. Unfortunately we have overdeveloped without first introducing infrastructure for longterm support. Now we are in a situation of playing catch-up and time is not our friend. It's going to take years to build plants to supply the ever-growing need for potable water in the SouthWest. But the worst part is that we have nothing on the books to solve the problem. We are still in debate or assuming solutions such as the third straw will solve the problems. So we are looking at agricultural dieback of the last 70 years. Forests in California growing fruit, nuts, and more will pause. It's going to effect availability for years to come. The only way I can see to save the industry are desalinization plants.
Very sad what’s happening to our lake……HeavyD was there to rescue a guy there. And he did. He’s really a great person, him and his team.
Dave was extracting a stranded guy who had his boat beached for 2 weeks in the lake when the water level went down so fast it beached the poor guy, mission successful
He was quick. Saw it on Sun City outdoors 2 days ago
Amazing to see they got that stranded guy out.👍
Interesting how they made sidewalks and don’t expect to have the water situation change
The water is so low that a many of the larger boats cannot launch at the ramp most of the time.
House boat left high and dry, needs help.
You could of recorded some of it and did a brief w just edited it.
I was thinking you might have some info on his house boat etc. or something. Did he make it out the lake?
Surprised no one is out metal detecting some of these coves.
It’s illegal.. federal land
Being in AZ I know what you mean about Hot
They clean up the drums quick so no chance running into one of them ?
I think the lake must be having an identity crises.
Why is the lake drying up ?
This randomly came up on recommended, Kind of curious, not sure if anyone will see this, since this is what, six days later, but why is this a shock or a surprise? I have been watching different videos about the lakes there and their water loss, they are man made lakes in the desert, a desert does not get massive rain, so why does it come as a shock when there is lack of rain and the lake dries up? I am not trying to be a SA, I am just really curious. Where I live we are heading into the rainy season, it will now rain a LOT for the next few months, so we are used to getting rain, but in the desert is the total opposite, so I guess I am a little confused.
It's not because it's a desert .
When all those dams were constructed it was because it was a desert that needed water for power and development.
Most of the west is in a drought, not just Nevada.
Hoover dam is 86 years old.
The real reason for the water shortage is a 22 year old megadrought.
Climate change has pushed this drought to a new level.
This drought is the most severe drought in 1200 years.
Why is the water gone if its a man made lake? What usually feeds them?
MtN Snow feed thru runoff upstream along Colorado river
@missingremote thanks mate. From Australia. Did some googling too and looks like its a big issue up there
It’s sad what’s happening to lake Meade. Especially since USA gov. Owns a bunch of patents on Gee 0 engineering.
Send it
Looking for water reports and Flash Flood updates
Why hasn't anyone taken a metal detector with.?
It’s illegal
@@ferminflores279 ahh..ok...pity
Who knows why it’s illegal. Government makes no sense sometimes.
LAST VEGAS WILL LOSE ELECTRICITY AND TAP WATER PROBABLY WITHIN A YR.
2 years
@@Quest_NPC_ does not work that way. Once it reaches a certain level. NEVADA AND ARIZONA GET CUT OFF FIRST. IT WAS WRITTEN UP YRS AGO
