I am astonished that I am happy watching you clean out this drain. You are more interesting than most stuff on here 👍👍. Not high speed talking or loud music
A very nice piece of work on a very satisfying endeavor. Loved the classical music buildup with the flying bugs dancing away at waters edge. Watched one of them at about the 21 min mark stubbornly hold on to the twig as the water rose. A lovely day and i could just smell the air around there. This is the sort of stuff i wanna do as a retirement hobby. Thanks man!
Hey man. Great update. I wish you will cut an opening on the side of drain. Making it so much easier to unclog. Taking out 1 bar will be big difference. Pretty sure land lady will be ok with that. Still can't figure out why it is divided by a sheet metal. Cheers man. Always a relaxing one to watch. 👊👍💪👊☺️
I was wondering too. I think it is to keep long, large limbs from going down the drain. A longer log would float through the openings but if it strikes something that keeps it from tipping over the edge, it won't have the opportunity to flip over and lodge either in or across the drain? Just my guess....👍
You Know I Stumbled on To This, And I Loved Watching You Get The Water Back To Running. It Was Very Relaxing Who Would Have Thought But It Really Was. Thank You.
Very interesting!! Kudos to you for trying to help. We are concerned that this drainage "stystem" has a partial opening that adventurous youngsters might fall into? ... Wondering what your thoughts are about that?? Blessings and hope this goes well for you 🙏
Right on, brother! That pond needs a serious clean. I'm sure there are plenty of folks that appreciate what you're doing in the neighborhood. BTW who is responsible for the pond? Residents? City? Good works, as always!🤗
@@UpNorthMowingDude I really hope you got permission to do it. I'm sorry to say in todays litigious society this could be an issue. I have a pond that I've had to chase people away who "wanted to help" by "unclogging" the overflow. However my insurance will not cover someone who comes out and gets hurt. And yes, people have trespassed on my property, got hurt, and sued me. Now in my case I have no trespassing signs posted everywhere. But I still have to chase people away who watch videos like this one and think it is OK to go onto someone else's property to "help out". Look, I'm not saying dont try and help someone, but get permission FIRST. Otherwise someone may get hurt or worse in legal trouble.
watch the rock in the middle of the downstream pool and you realize that the water level is rising because outflow in that pool is also partially blocked
This drain is the achievement of some really stellar minds, probably finished dead last in their class! That Bullfrog has more sense than whoever designed that drain!!😮 Great job!!
Im guessing the metal sheet is there to make sure a log that is too long going through the "maintenance hole" and down the pipe, blocking the bend at the bottom? It would be stopped by the sheet? Thats the only reason i can think of for the sheet
Thank you Linda, I appreciate it. I JUST got back from unclogging this one again. We've had flooding over here so we have a lot of water to deal with. Welcome!!
You sir are one brave dude! I'm not sure most 20 year olds would be willing and/or able to clamber down that steep grade AND then know how to unclog that thang! You've helped the whole area - stagnant water breeds mosquitoes (& the bullfrog won't get too fat!) It's terrific that you got it sorted out - great job!
Great job. Glad you didn't slip and sit down in the water, lol. I love the sound and sight of water flowing. Where does the water go from where it came out? Just an overflow spot? I was surprised you didn't try to move that tree that separated one side of the trap from the other side. Unless you already know that it is too heavy or massive. This is another thing I want to put on my bucket list. I used to love following water to the gutters when I was a kid in Milwaukee. I would take a stick and push the leaves away. But I need womens waders now. Only ditches where I live now. Somehow they never seriously clog. I will have to find a creek.
On the exit side the water just flows down a little creek. It winds back and forth through the woods. I've only walked about 50 yards back so not sure where all it goes after that. This is fun to do.
I loved watching the footage at the end! Seeing the large rock "shrinking" as the water got deeper was so cool. I also like that you wear gloves while clearing the debris. I'm always worried about what lurks in the water that could harm those cleaning up our waterways.
We have volunteers in Richmond Va that clean up the james river, bed along the pathways use social media just a thought river bed debris makes good mulch
I don't usually get this many opportunities but it's been really rainy and windy so it's stirring up junk quite often. People probably getting tired of it but it has to be done........I might as well film it. :)
Please put some orange traffic cones around your parked truck for safety. Too many idiots on the road, not paying attention. "I'm gonna have my wife check me for ticks"... ....is that what you kids are calling it today??...LOL..LOL Seriously, you are a Good Man. We need more people like you.
Haha. I'm in Wisconsin so no poisonous snakes, crocs or anything like that. We have bears but out in nature more. My biggest threat might be a rowdy neighbor.
I watched as the water got dangerously close to the top of those waders! And, I wanted you to pull that other log out that was toward the front/opening. All I could think was, what if all that debris got hung up under the road in that drain pipe?

@@Doxymeister Good analysis man. Thank you
The sheet metal is there to keep the water from swirling and eroding the dam when it is flowing very full. Like your bathtub drain X100.
@@Doxymeister you are right
God bless you sir, someone has to do it.
I unclogged 15 street drains yesterday because they were very clogged with debris.

Not partially blocked it's just slow moving on that end.
looks like fun! :) i have done some storm drains in my neighborhood after a bad rain, was a risk of flooding a street that would cause a detour.

How long have you been doing this kind of thing?
It can be fun doing this kind of stuff when your a kid, it turns into work when you become an adult.
Unclogging for about 2 yrs and mowing for 1. I feel every year of my age when I do it. 😁 I tell myself it's keeping me young but I think I'm a liar.

Nice job! Do you know what the purpose of the corrugated metal sheet is? I couldn't figure it out.
I’ve watched a few videos with them in, nobody explain why it’s there
I really don't know. Maybe it minimizes water flow on that side so it doesn't erode the shoreline.
Question: why didn't you remove the big log by the drain? And what is the purpose of the piece of metal in the middle of the drain?
@@carolhensley-c2l Log is there for standing on, not sure about the corrugated.
