- Up to this point this construction site had remained unscathed, although with 10 metre tides & storms in the channel it was only a matter of time before it was hit with the seas full force.
Luckily the individual involved escaped unharmed, just a little damp & was able to laugh about the experience & all work was ceased until the sea receded.
One thing I have learned on my travels, when a local shares "local knowledge" treat it with respect and do not ignore what you've been told.
Imagine trying to have a dump in peace and that comes knocking on your portaloo door....
Stunning! I was at this very spot less than a year after this footage was taken, sea was calm that day, I would have love watching these waves crash. I could watch the sea/ocean meet land all day. Great filming!
Imagine being on the bog
Best place to shit yourself 😂
😂😂😂💩
I thought that, too. 😂🤣
Seriously splash back
😂
Why didn`t that bloke remove his car when he got his feet wet. That should have been warning enough.
He waited until the water was powerful enough to push his car :/
Looks like a useful excuse for a day off
the car is a write off -- it will be as rusty as hell within 3 months

Not necessarily. If he was intelligent enough and got it to a car wash and run it through a couple of times with a solid fresh water wash he could have got the salt off.
I'm from Barnstaple so I often come see this spot when there's storms forecasted, always jealous of yous that live in them apartments. Such an awesome view
You kept going back to film here and eventually it paid off with the 2M view video this year... well done! 👏
Amazing there's seemingly no warning signs about the dangers at high tide in the car park!
There is a sign warning about tidal flooding as you enter the car park
Some superb footage
Don't think the worker knew what a storm surge was or how little protection that small wall would provide
cool but dude took way to long to move his car
Salt water damage to the cars !
Beautiful lol love watching storms
I'm so annoyed that that guy didn't move his car sooner.
Myself and big Bill we're nearly gonners down there having a drink after a shift in the smugglers .
The sea just rose up and we ran for it 😀
I would have moved my.car. But some people are dense.
Great video
Thanks
THATS AWESOME! NICE VID!
U must work there!!!!
OMG could you amagine being stuck in the port a pot having a bowl movement....hahahah
Why not make the wall bigger?
Absolutely brain dead some people. He obviously lives in a town or city inland!
Love their chances of selling that key location
At 1 min 49 seconds, when the shitter moved I thought when was that last cleaned out, this could go into a shit show.
It hit again 10 days ago, smashing up a campervan and some other vehicles.
Just imagine taking a crap in the portopotty, and the wave slams into it...
There would be shit flying everywhere...
the best place to park
Only a matter of time before the shi**er goes in the sea.😂
Work men don’t have a choice, they have to work and this footage will hopefully inspire their boss/contractor to listen
Why is this car park here?
what do they work there even ?!
I watched your recent video of this exact spot and was surprised that this is a carbon copy of 8 years ago. 8 years and nothing has been done? Council work at its finest.
But what do you want the council to do? If they block it off and don't let anyone access that area, people (like you) will moan that the council are turning the place into a "nanny state".
There's something called "personal responsibility".
@@Agnelum1 What crevice did you pull the idea that I would advocate for more sea surge protection and then moan about it if they did it?
You literally just fabricated that story in your head.
I live in ilfracombe and I remember this
Skuched Edits same i have lived here for my whole life 15 years
Nature at its best
Water can be your friend or foe😮
Oh dear
Normal high tide on a windy day
A mic wind filter would be appreciated
Thats the uk for ya
Couple of years and the car will be scrap-maybe sooner.
1:41 omg
don't buy a used car from someone who lives by the coast..
Almost knocked the sh1thouse over 😂👍🏻
Moz well move the car then
8 years ago eh. 8 years for a council to tick boxes for health and safety and a bit of cronyism thrown in, someone’s uncle …Tidal Officer * 35k per annum..? And do a risk assessment of the county ( being mostly surrounded by, uh, SEA). But no, this video isn’t even the most recent..god bless UK councils and all who get paid by the tax payer.
yes lets leave the car here to get smashed hard to believe some people
Guess ya'll shouldn't be building there then huh
Ironically its flood prevention work lol
1:42
Tsunami has hit
Firt comment
Pin pls
Mother Nature will not be controlled. Some folks just can’t get that through their head.
Day off time for a nap then who knows :)
orrr
U must work there!!!!
Nah, If I did then I would warn people earlier ;-)
