sometimes i wonder if post knows how much of an impact he has on the people who watch his videos. theres been times where I do little things like moving a fallen branch off the road or cleaning up garbage at a park when I specifically think “what would post10 do if he was here?”
Totally -- I have learned all about where our storm water goes and about the systems in general. Now I go down the line to make sure our neighborhood is always drained! Thanks Post 10!
You should keep us updated on that Big Beaver pond/lake right next to the road. Make a phone call to the state or township and then give us updates by video
Please do Post. This is going to be epic! Also tell them for us. We want you to be there filming. This should truly be one of your most interesting videos ever! Do hope that tree doesn't fall onto the road and hoping no one gets hurt if it does. As always your videos are always interesting! Thank you for keeping us informed! ♥️🪵🦫🪵🦫😳👍👍👍👍
Man, it would be cool to watch the unclogging of that last beaver-clog... Maybe you could call the DOT to inform when it is scheduled, it would make an easy, but very interesting video! Anyways, interesting video, thanks for filming!!!
Living in the PNW it's been pretty rainy lately and I'm about to start packing boots in my car to unclog street drains! You're truly the best post, thanks for all your hard work!
The driveway culvert seemed like such a perfect location for a Rake appearance. It was fun seeing Ghostie in the 1st clip - hi Ghostie! 👋🏼🙋🏽♀️✌🏽 Edit: I forgot to mention! The rainy season has begun (up to 1"/day when it's storming), and I have been zealously watching over the storm drain on the corner where we live. Did some "renovation" before the rains started & they seem to be working well. Couldn't/wouldn't have done it w/o all of Post 10's advice & examples!
‘These beavers are outta control!’ I’m picturing a bad lot of leather jacketed teenaged beavers, smokin’, drinkin’ and plotting to drop trees on passing motorists. They have tshirts that say ‘Down with Post10’ and ‘Beavers for a Rakeless Society’
The man the phenomenon who keeps the USA 🇺🇸 culverts following and entertaining the entire world at same time just a guy and his special Rake doing wonders 👍🏻😂😂👍🏻🇬🇧
Post at his best again, i love your explanations and passion for what you do, you make an excellent teacher, thanks for sharing, sending best wishes from England x
The road surface at the beginning may not be asphalt, but just oiled instead. It's used on some low-traffic roads here in Alberta: a heavy oil is put down on gravel, and traffic compacts it down over time into a surface similar to very thin asphalt pavement. It's way cheaper than actual asphalt (since oil is just sprayed from the back of a truck), but the road surface is a lot more durable than bare gravel.
Wow thanx, I just learned something new! There were industrial roads near my childhood neighbourhood, and I thought they only sprayed to keep dust down near houses. You're right about the road surface. Very prone to weird divots and ruts, plus those potholes probably rattle each trucker into next week lol!
@@amandavancpsti yup, I grew up in the countryside between Ithaca and Cortland. Our road was this oil and stone mix. Rougher than asphalt, smoother than dirt road.
I’m such a fan. But I’m so glad you know when it’s too dangerous to tackle. Take no chances for us. Stay safe. You do a lot of good and your content is very interesting. It is calming when life is stressful. The scenery is great. Thanks Post!
"These beavers are out of control!!!" Envisioning leather clad beavers on Harleys, mirrored sunglasses, smokes, slowly drive by giving Post 10 and his rake the stink eye.....😂😁
man i wish that beaver pond at the end had a lake drain like the old lake drain . i really miss the old lake drain that thing was awesome to watch you clean . glad you mentioned how dangerous this is . you know for kids and other people who decide im going to try this cause i seen post 10 do it . your the man brother work safe and take care . best wishes to you and ghost ten .
@@post.10 oh wow that would be cool . if it was and they cleared it enough so you could do videos there . but no one wants to see you get hurt brother of worse . but it would be cool to see how they got it set up to drain once they fix it . be nice if you could catch them clearing it just to see the water shoot out the other side . and i bet there will be one heck of a whirl pool . the beavers are going to be very upset lol .
Would love if you could come out and coordinate with the city or state when they start unclogging it. You'd have to borrow cameras to get all the angles! Maybe even borrow a drone
This vid is great . It has everything :- . 12:30 Jesse Pinkman is having a bad day 😂 followed by a hover tree. Then at 13:20 the beavers have their own mailbox!! . “These beavers are out of control !” 🪵
I'd like to see more of this one with the pond. Disaster waiting to happen. Hope you can see it while it happens Postie. Be really cool to see. You guys stay safe now.
PA marks a lot of things but that doesn't mean they'll fix it. It might take a few years to do anything about it. But since you have brought it to their attention, something might get done sooner. PA can keep you pretty busy, stick around. Love the videos
While I was out walking yesterday I found a grate covered with leaves and debris. This is the first one I have cleared and it is all because of your inspiration. Thanks.
This was a great one to watch! I really liked the last one, it is massive. It would be cool to watch the state clear that culvert. It was awesome to see your trusty rake this time too. Be well and stay safe! 😊🌻
Nice, how you pause in the middle of a diatribe to observe that "somebody's having a bad day," and then return to said diatribe without missing a beat. lol!
That's because it's not asphalt, it's compacted gravel. BTW if you didn't see my comment on your video where you saw the fish, I'm pretty sure that was a brook trout, which are actually getting pretty rare now as most of their habitat has been destroyed. (I actually looked up Pen fish species)
So yes you are very informative. I was going to ask about the power poles and then you were answering me. Lol. It would be fun to watch the release if they don't just rip the road up and redo it all. In your spare time(if you have any) do you ever watch beaver dam removals if they are done in the right context?
Thanks for sharing with us, always interesting, I hope you can video the state unclogging this one, that amount of water being released would be something else !!👍
Not to break you bubble . It’s not ashphalt at all but called chip seal. Where they spray a layer of tar then apply Stone an roll in down. That’s all the tar truck is self heating. Think about how far a truck load of ashphalt has to travel an how cold it would get. An then you have edges from the machine laying the ashphalt. An it would be black. Just something you should know the oil run off would contaminate water near buy. So they do chip an seal. Even on city streets now it’s cheaper.
At six minutes it got a little bit chef from south park but we know how much you care about this stuff! Don’t stop I’m sat on my ass in the UK loving this 😬👍🏻
The power company should be up in arms about the poles being in the pond. If they ever had a line go down and had to work on those... good luck. What a mess.
Two Beavers watching from the edge of the pond: I always thought this guy was just a tall tale passed down through the generations.. Second Beaver: Not a tall tale, A LEGEND! First Beaver: Dam,… 😆😆👍
Your videos are always interesting to me. YOU make the happen, you are very complex in your thoughts, love your theories on so many things, your fun to be around. Bye for now. Love ya much. Keep on doing it your way. 😘👅
I hope you called someone to report that tree, like you said it could easily fall over into the road and lead to a death or it'll fall into those lines and maybe force them to clear that pipe so they can do proper repairs.
Ooooh, excavator unplugs that culvert and it starts to syphon...imagine that whirlpool coming up! I bet the synced footage is helping you study what exactly is happening during each clearing you do.
Thank you very much for this very interesting and informative video presentation. This was an interesting variety of culverts that you put before the people but without doubt that one at the end was in serious trouble, due in no small measure by a degree of neglect by the local authority. One would hope that action will be taken to fell and remove the offending tree and get to work, by specialist machinery, to urgently unclog that culvert, or else they will have the very great expense of replacing a washed out road. The community are grateful that this has been made known by you.
That's not asphalt, that's probably stone chip on a tar base. Used a lot in my sector. Vehicles (or a roller) push the chip into the tar and excess chip is (often) removed sometime later to prevent it being kicked up by tires.
As the Beavers get smarter, I would worry about them learning how to order plate steel and welding the end closed. Damn Beavers Sir, Thanks for helping you community.
Is it just the male of the species or do all beavers work to build these dams? Just curious. Would love to see the opening of that last culvert! Thanks again.
“These beavers 🦫 are out of control”!! I about lost it when you said that. Aaahahahahah! That’s beavers for you, they’re never “in control” are they? 😆 I seriously can’t believe that tree was still standing with barely a toothpick sized piece of wood holding it up. I wonder what made the beavers stop chewing when it was already 99.99999% of the way done cutting the tree down? That’s an out of control beavers right their. Lol
That would be an epic unclogging if you would be able to get down there. Glad that is no wear near me because I would try it. Thanks for another great video post 10 !
Well Post 10, you've done your job I'd say. My GF and I went for a walk at the local city park and I pointed out a clearly beaver dammed culver. She asked me if I was going to come back and clear it out xD
The asphalt is called chip seal, it’s rock chips spread onto liquid asphalt, all over top of a base coarse of traditional paver machine installed bituminous concrete. Bituminous concrete is the technical term for the pavement we usually drive on.
Hands up ! Who cheered when post said he was going for the rake ? Beautiful place , can’t wait to see it when the works done x
I’m glad I’m not the only one that uses a rake to clear grates

Another great video from Professor Post 10, Chairman Emeritus of the Department of Culvertology at Slippery Rock University!
Oh I also went to SRU. It was great there, learned lots of things.
I really love the dual camera set-up, it good to see the current flowing

It would be a blast, and not just of water.
Indeed .. that would be awesome.
I agree that would be an awesome opportunity to watch how the DOT handle that situation.
Then we could shout " idiot with an excavator " 😆😆
"That yelp was to line the cameras up."
Are you sure it's not because you were excited to create some flow? 😁
it was the Post10 battle cry to lure out any beavers in hiding
