Gas Stations

- A typical gasoline station has a storage capacity of 30,000 to 40,000 gallons in underground tanks. In the past, these tanks were sometimes subject to spills from overfilling and to leaks caused by corrosion. Today, station owners have taken several important steps to reduce these risks.
I don't know why I watched this vid, but I'm not disappointed.
Bradley Albrecht Same
Bradley Albrecht same XD
Bradley Albrecht same here :)
with ya on that i also dont get why its on my reccomendations i only watch gaming vids
Yeah, why am i here,,, i don;t know but hey :)
imagine being at a gas station and u hear that safety alarm go off
Victor Korgoth "What's the procedure?" "Stay F***ing calm!"-The Office
I actually recognized that alarm. I think some gas stations might use it for other alarms.
I should be doing homework but this is more important
Cats with headphones on don't need to do homework.
SAME HERE BRO, I HAVE HOMEWORK RIGHT NOW
I member Napster. Oh...i member
I just pirate FLAC amd WAV of all my music. 1000s of songs.
Teacher "why didn't do your home work?" You "I did, I learned how gas stations prevent spills to protect our environment." :)
Human engineering is amazing, something that seemed so simple to me is actually way more complex than I thought.
Once you learn more about the world around you and everyday things in your environment you've currently taken advantage of and pay no mind to, (be it man-made or natural) you start to appreciate things a lot more and really marvel at what you have in front of you. From gas station engineering to how a Venus Flytrap plant works. We live in an amazing world and I wish more people would appreciate it.
Well its almost 12 am, and i'm watching a video about spill prevention.... youtube death spiral.
12:15am and I've found my way here....
12:59....
it's 1am my time, and I am watching this lol
2:53
11:59 pm...
Gasoline stations are the shit.
i like how the word the can change the meaning.
you dont see the grocery stores haning out great (and i mean great) soda deals
gas stations: 1
grocery stores:0
Deus Vult mmm, love me some solution of 40% sugar, 40% obesity, 15% diabetes and a 5% sprinkle of cancer. Some sodas prefer to replace the cancer with esophageal corrosion, which i prefer.
Well, there shouldn't be that much cancer in it.
Why the hell am I even watching this?
Daniel SENEKAL same.
LimitedWard curiosity... Curiosity...
LimitedWard I asked myself that same question
Because it is awesome as fuck.
you had it in your recommendations
im sitting here thinking "how can i get free gas" lol
I'm sitting here thinking "Unlike those tanks, I need to take a leak"
You need a Michael Scofield.
You forgot a step!
3. get arrested by the police
Call me crazy but I legit appreciate the educational value of videos like this even when its not my daily cup of tea! :)
Why did this pop up on my recommended videos? It's interesting, but whaaaa?
We must have been led here for a reason. Maybe someone has answers.
+AssemblyBandit all I've been watching is f1 and top gear
Ah, the mysterious recommended list... there should be a "random video" button! That would be hilarious/scary
@ wsupchris ...and those shows are about what? Powered by what?
NorthernChev Fuel and rich people's money
Thank You Engineers and Scientists, for figuring out how to make everything as secure and convenient as possible, not just for fuel, but in all aspects of life, from electronic technologies, to infrastructures and water systems to deliver water.
I love how everything, everywhere has so much technology embedded into our world that most of us never even thought of or acknowledged the existence of.
you know what??... i found that extremely informative :)
This is actually interesting for some reason, didn't ever think of how gas stations work
what I do at 2am
You to must live on the other side of the world from each other.
RichardDJLilD I clicked on the time tag but didn't notice u wrote am after
This is like some irrelevant training video they make new clerks watch for when they gotta man the cashier.
how the heck did I go from watching funny youtube videos trying to pass time at work to watching the presidential debate to watching how gas pumps work and now gas stations.
i need this in my backyard
915TANK ))))))))
Uh.. Thanks TH-cam Recommended,
I Definently need this for my Exam!
Hurileno My name is George
Don’t know why this was in my recommendation but I’m actually glad I had watched it.
the more you know, am i right?
I didn't need to know this, but I happen to click on the video. So it looks like I now am the proud recipient of this little piece of knowledge.
And we blow them up like they're nothing in Just Cause 3.
This isn't the weird part of TH-cam but I still don't know how I got here.
This was an ad that was placed in your recommendations. It even closes with a line about how the oil companies protect the environment.
4:26am standing in my kitchen with my battery on 13%, time to go sleep.
Why is this so soothing to watch.
very educational for just 3 mins of info and nice visuals too
I will never look at a gas station the same way.
Wow the amount of engineering that goes into something as simple as an underground tank
It's 5 in the morning, I have no idea why I'm watching this video, but I'm glad I did
seems like something a Professor would show in class but here I am watching it instead of doing homework
Thanks TH-cam I watch so many videos about gas stations I really needed this.
i thought the whole stations underground is a tank😂
I hope I'm not the only one pleasantly surprised by the narrator's voice and how good it is
Great video to watch at the gas station at 2 AM.
ill put good use to what i just learned at the next gas station, this will tottally come in handy
I don't know how I ended up here, but I'm not mad about learning new information.
Someone did amazing job here.
Why the fuck is this so consistently in my recommendations?
Because they paid for it to be recommended
I don't doubt people can pay to have their videos recommended, but I can't think what the poster of this video would gain from doing so. You?
Mr Reymundo it's basically an infomercial for anybody interested in purchasing their product. albeit commercial lots of people own gas stations and might be interested in purchasing one.. thats my thoughts
Anthony Johnson I could see that
This why the fuck has this come up?
Two rules to live by:
1) Don't sweat the small stuff.
2) It's all small stuff
I'm glad that we are all here, and none of us know why.
I always wanted to know where the gas was pumping from. I'm 13 and this helped me.
not sure why this popped into my recommendations but it was cool to watch
Such a pleasant video... about gas stations.
I feel like i just went through a training video, am i hired now?
It's 1AM, I don't know why or how I got to this video but I liked it
"help protect our environment" roaight...
Yep, doesn't matter we've lost a few billion litres of oil into the sea each year but we're sure keen to show you we won't let that dribble get loose in the petrol station!
Aristocrafied Not much choice is there?
hypocrite, lemme guess, you are vegan?
+John Doe oh because wanting a future for my offspring must make me dislike plants so much i wanna only eat that..
yeah. fuck you scum-ass vegans, you plant-hating monsters
It's just so perfect!
How could we NOT lose!
I don't understand what you're trying to say, or if you're trying to say anything meaningful at all. I'm not going to make any assumptions, so would you care to explain yourself?
hmmmm. probably the best video ive seen all day
That was quite interesting and random.
Considering I'm at one of these every three days, that was an interestingly informative video... thank you!
now u know the perfect place to open a gas station! nice video
I try not to stay up until 2am. But when I do, I make sure I learn about gas stations
I don't know why I like this stuff a much.... but that's a nice thing to know...
One time I was going to fill up at a Royal Farms. There was a massive gas leak a few pumps to my right and I didn't notice till a few managers and one oil company manager all crowded around me and gave me the news. They said none of the pumps were gonna work at the moment but welcomed me to wait. Unfortunately, what I didn't realize was that my increased intake of potent Cannabis that day really boggled my mind and I didn't notice till I attempted to engage in conversation. Soon, I said my goodbyes and decided to go to the local Wawa instead. 2 minuets prior to all of this, I decided to put all of my Cannabis and accessories in closed environments. Holy hell man, what a day that was.
Fascinating video, very well-constructed!
I have learned so much from this video lol
Always wondered how the tanks looked under gas stations
what's weird is that just today I went out to a piece of property that I am purchasing to have the well fully inspected; they checked the depth and explained how the tank and pump worked. on my way home I passed a gas station and wondered about how their systems worked and how come they didn't overfill. this video was recommended to me this evening... TH-cam! LEAVE MY BRAIN ALONE!!!
Brine is salted water right ???
wow, this was far more interesting than it should have been.
In Northern parts of Canada many gas tanks are above ground ... if it leaks you can just look at it and see :)
I found this video entertaining because I work doing repairs on all the the tank and probes and sensors , over 100k for someone that didn't even graduate from high school, isn't America great
when I grow up I wanna be a gas station attendant!
why did i watch this .-.
why did i finish it .-.
i don't know why but i watch this twice.
I used to work at an old full serve station built in 1920. Tanks from the 80's . And the tanks were allowed to leak a cert en amount ( 1 gallon per2500 gallon per week ) its located where most of us have well water and it is less then a mile from the cape cpd bay ....
Brian O' well water is taken from pockets so deep it would take thousands of years for the gas to reach it
not in my aeira our local wells are as shallow as 140 ft but can reach 1200+ . The air Force base has leaked jet fuel and contaminated hundreds of wells in less than 75 years. the ammount of time it takes for ground water to mover can varry greatly, where i reside is essentially a 60 mile long sand bar deposited by a glacier, allowing ground water to move quite freely
Great video!
I picked this over taking a shower.
Was not disappointed.
not sure why i watched this but very interesting and great animation and explanation.
I learnt something new, thanks
why did I watch this? asking the real questions
Because of curiosity.
Emre.D exactly. very fascinating
Not gonna lie this was pretty neat
I watched this at like half 12 after the pub and I have no idea why. Also that fucking alarm tripped me and I thought my car alarm went off for a second. 10/10 Subbed.
Surprisingly I've always felt safe at a gas station
oh i get this video, it doesn't matter if you use cheap or expensive gas, its all from the same tank
fantastic video editing. very informative, ty
I was listening to 2 chainz new album, but had to stop to quickly educate myself about leak prevention in gas stations 👍
I was looking for a dishwasher gasket, watched this instead. 😂
this is one of those videos that has a tremendous amount of views and comments with thousands of likes yet nobody can explain why
It has sensors on the sensors!
I know a guy whose job it was to refill these tanks. One day he said he dropped his cellphone in. He just left it.
Oh that sucks butt..I dropped my car keys in the crack between the elevator and the floor. I was sooooooooooooooo upset...
itssandytime That sucks. That was always an irrational phobia of mine until now. Now it's rational lol.
itssandytime I'm always worried I'm gonna drop something through the crack lol. I always hold on tight to everything in my pockets to make sure they don't fall out
Big Ty
I have that problem with the wife now she's had four kids.
Wow , now that was riveting!
idk how i ended up here but i watched the full video for some reason,guess i have to give it a like now
good informational video. 10/10
Wait where's the regular, premium and plus tanks?
Good video.
Thanks for the video................................................. & THUMBS UP :D
i watched this vid for no reason still felt good
i thought i was gonna waste my time yet i am oddly impressed. I mean none of this matters to me. I'm just the guy who rolls down my window and say "lemme get $10 regular" and go on my way
you dont pump ur gas ?
XiferTehPenguin in the state of Oregon you're not allowed to pump your own gas
XiferTehPenguin yup Oregon and New Jersey are the two states where u can't pump your own gas
Oregon, home of the liberal nirvana, and also lots of homeless, thanks to liberals...
why was this in my recommendations :|
I still liked the video
Very informative. I'll note it down.
thank you very well done learned a lot thanks again
I do not know why I watched this but it was interesting!
Ever wondered how Tesla Superchargers work?
This is more interesting and enjoyable then half the shit my professors teach me
TH-cam recommendation did its best!
I did not realize that gas station tanks had so many safety systems built into them
