Everyone was running and that kid just sat there crying . SMDH. There's always that one kid.
Some people freeze in moments of huge fear or crisis. From outside perspective it looks daft but they can't help it and need a wake up call putting both people at risk if they can't snap themselves out of it
Where's her parents?
@@iverkjellkken6569 It's easy to loose your parents in a commotion like that. She was probably a little ahead sight seeing and before you know is everyone is running around in a panic. Kids get lost when shopping, in a natural disaster event like that theres always gonna be kids and even adults like that who get seperated
Where? Edit: never mind
She has an excuse. She is scared
*"ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS FOLLOW YOUR DAMN PARENTS, KID!"*
~ Big Smoke
Your DAM parents
LMAO
it's always a girl!
Shit man!
it was the kids parents fault. you can never get away from parents who think their kids are throwaways. i have seen too many movies where that happens.
The most unrealistic thing about this scene is Lake Mead's water level
this movie was filmed a decade ago
It was that high when the movie was shot
@@misguidedangel6550 lol it hasnt been that high since the 90s
Mom wasn’t very grateful was she?!
Ha
"Everyone, get off the dam!"
"Tim! Hurry!"
It's nice to have someone around who will point to you what to do in such unclear circumstances
What really amazing is they all listen and do it.
Plus the " TIM HURRY!!!!!" like he was already running as FAST as he possibly could!
To be fair, there are people out there that just completely shut down when confronted with overwhelming situations. But yeah, in this scene all the people he is yelling at are already running haha
I love how they saved the little girl, but the mum didn’t even say thanks!
Mom of the Year didn't have the slightest bit of common courtesy? The mom that fled the bridge, Costanza-style, leaving her young child behind?
Thats usually how it works.
Even get sued for savings someone's life nowadays
She also just left her little girl behind and ran to save her own life. Definitely mother of the year LMAO
Almost 10 years ago I was driving home from work, it was around noon and very hot. And I see a kid around 3 just running on the sidewalk with bare feet and I thought that's got to burn, what were the parents thinking. I keep driving and as an afterthought I check the rearview mirror and the kid is still running (and laughing) with no adults around. I almost kept going thinking someone is surely behind it or close by but for some reason the whole situation felt weird, so I turn the car on the curve and go next to the kid. Still no parents, no other adults and I have literally no idea what to do. I take the kid by the hand (I wasn't picking the kid up, it was clearly having a good time so the pavement wasn't that hot and I was not about to get seen with an unknown child in my arms, it's this kind of world) and decide to start ringing the house bells that were right next to us for information.
Just then I hear a woman screaming. And I see her from 300-400 meters away, a woman who was half dressed, shouting and crying and trying to run as fast as she could towards us. When she finally reached us she couldn't speak, just knelt down and hugged the kid who got scared and started crying too. And through the sobs she basically said she was doing house chores and the kid was playing in the garden and suddenly she couldn't see it anymore. I'm guessing (she never said it) she must have taken a lot of time checking the house too so the kid had to be alone in the streets for at least ten minutes. She finally got back up still hugging it and left. She never said thanks, didn't ask any details, she didn't even say goodbye.
So the scene in the film where the mom takes the daughter and leaves is totally realistic to me, the shock of losing someone you're supposed to take care of and then the relief that everything is ok is too much, all social interactions and conversation norms just go out of the window.

To be clear, the Hoover Dam could not "collapse" as depicted, or really at all. Even if it did become compromised due to a massive earthquake, it would at most leak. This is because it was built to basically be a concrete mountain. No properly built/maintained concrete and steel dam has ever "collapsed." The same is true for concrete and steel buildings.
But could it collapse if the water went away? It's an arch dam after all.
@@patrickj1066 Of course it wouldn't collapse. It was made without water up against it. And it only got stronger over the decades as the concrete cured.
According to the government and the 9/11 commission, a little burning jet fuel and debris could make it collapse. just look at what it did to WTC tower 7.
@@waltersvg You're comparing apples and oranges. We weren't talking about an attack. Even so,, Hoover Dam has no exposed steel and concrete doesn't burn.
@@rogerbabson7221 You stated the same is true for concrete and steel buildings. Tower 7 wasn't attacked - it was hit by falling and burning debris.
Hoover Dam is a marvelous piece of engineering. It is actually stronger today than the day that was built. Concrete tends to cure for ever. This structure will last an eternity, even longer than the Giza's pyramids. If there is one safe place to be during a catastrophe is at the Hoover Dam.
Look it's a strong structure but that's just a load of arrogance.
Hmm…You know Giza‘s pyramid is already around for c 4600 years. Unlike Hoover Dam the pyramid is not constantly exposed to enourmous water pressure. And unlike Hoover Dam the pyramid is not relatively close to a tectonic boundary of continental plates, aka San Andreas fault. So while hopefully we we will never know, there is a good chance that you are wrong.
@@TheOneMonk the Hoover damn is built more like a mountain it’s more wide then it is long and absolutely indestructible and it is true the Hoover damn will most likely be one of the longest lasting human creations the water doesn’t really mean anything I don’t think you know what you mean by water pressure.
The Hoover damn was built to survive earthquakes up to 8.0 and more realistically it could handle a 9.0 the only Tectonic plate in the US that could generate that power is the Wan-De-Fuca plate off the coast of the Pacific Northwest
And another thing is the Pyramids are ALOT closer to a tectonic plate boundary (the one right off the coast of the Red Sea) then the Hoover damn the pyramids of Egypt went through a 6.5 earthquake in the 1300s and were completely fine Egypt isn’t as large as you think.
It is built from man's hand. That means it will collapse over time.
The only question is "when" but not "if".
Why must there always be a child that gets separated from their parents during a disaster and instead of running away they cower in fear.
TMoney521900 the child is obviously scared. Think of the situation. When you afraid, your often in shock, or stuck in place. And when you don’t have someone you trust or that can help, your stay.
Duo Damsel you might do that but when I’m scary it shock I run and punch 🤛....
Iafiv Iv, well they need to find a different way to end the scene, cause I'm sick and tired of seeing it in almost every feckin action or catastrophe movie!
Yes because the survival instincts over million years of evolution told us to cower in fear like that, ever heard of the flight or fight response. Also this could have been such an easy fix for the script writers to show how heroic the character is in a way that doesn't feel so contrived. I would have suspended my disbelief if the person the red coat was saving was disabled, had a broken leg hell they could have showed us that she was to slow and the red coat could have picked her up while they were both running.
TMoney521900 survival of the fittest says the child would die
I thought it was righteous how the earthquake respected the steel barrier that Paul Giamatti was standing behind. Not too many natural disasters understand the parameters they are obligated to stay within. Good going Mr. Earthquake.
If you actually went to hoover dam, thats where the strong good supports are at.
xD, Good doing indeed.
Yo Mama it's a movie
GET BEHIND THE BARRIERS GOD DAMMIT
The barriers are put into place to take advantage of the hydrodynamic law path of least resistance. In case of a catastrophic failure, the middle of the damn is destroyed releasing the water pressure and allowing the sides to stay up. Chances of survival are greatly increased when people are able to escape to the sides as opposed to the whole thing being destroyed. It has nothing to do with where the earthquake hit but how it was constructed.
“We may have survived, but let’s continue to stand precariously close to the edge of this crumbling concrete cliff.”
It's so weird seeing places you've been to in a disaster movie. It gives you more of a feel for what's happening.
Tell me about it.. I used to work there, lol.. The exterior shots are VERY accurate CGI. They even captured the employee parking lots and several of the support buildings.. Now they filmed this before I worked there, but the Public Affairs officer told me that Bay used 'guerilla tactics' to film and scan Hoover as they didn't want to obtain the permits/reserve the dam for the little amount they needed.. They sent up a drone and did their scan, then dipped lol. It's not like when he did the first Transformers movie.. He did Hoover the right way.. and no there's no museum with old ass weapons in it, lol.. But, often when leaving for the day, tourists would ask what I did there and I'd respond with 'Megatron Maintenance Crew Charlie'..
Ikr that scene in Penn Station from Armageddon freaks me out, I'm like I stood there before!
i love love love, my special trip to hover! it was awesome!!! i paid one of the guides (some money) that brought me in after hours and WOW WOW WOW!!!! they had a turbine down for maintenance and i got to go into the shell area where the gates were holding back the enormous pressure and yes, THEY WERE LEAKING - LIKE SIEVES lol - but beautiful!
It's hilarious how disaster movies always show stuff that literally can't happen. People don't realize how thick the Hoover dam is, it's thicker front-to-back at its base than the span across the top (from one side of the canyon to the other). It's an enormous wedge of concrete, more like a mountain than a wall. Any earthquake capable of making it collapse would also make the mountains around it collapse.
Where is CJ ?
you're supposed to turn your brain off watching this stupid stuff....especially the past decade or so of this hollywood drivel
dear you dont use physics brain when you watch a Hollywood or any movie, specially the mass destruction and hacking related ones
@@cypher1133 Oh, right, because Hollywood totally doesn't want us growing up daft and such. I get it.

The Hoover Dam is almost indestructible.The writers of Life After People believed it would endure for 10,000 years.
The dam is almost a hundred years old but not a single Crack has formed on its formidable walls. True Great engineering there.

No one should advise others to close their eyes during such an awe-inspiring and majestic, once-in-a-lifetime event. The girl was probably sitting there to get the best viewing angle to watch the collapse in its full glory.
he asked her to close her eyes so she wouldn't be able to witness his horrible death

I'd rather die than live with a hole in my foot. That brave guy took the right decission, and so becomes a real man!

She can always make another one... At least in theory
@@R-T_BK79 Actually, she should just sterilize herself to end her miserable DNA just there.
First time I've ever seen this.. its amazing the special effects
Again, we must commend the cameraman (or woman) for their bravery!
I have to say this, the dam is actually stronger than the surrounding mountains to a significant factor so the safest place in an earthquake might actually be on the dam than behind those barriers as it would be where the dam met the natural rock that collapsed.
Yeah they designed that thing to stand through a lot
How does it make sense to you, the dam is built on the mountain so if the mountain collapse, what can hold the dam?
@@mako4203 . You’re not meant to think that far or it spoils the Elmer Thud joke.
The dam would likely fall like a sandwich board in a gust but the question is would it go first or second?
@@anomamos9095 that's the question xD
hoover dam is actually key-wayed into the mountain on both sides in addition it is at least a quarter circle shape towards the water so the more the water pushes on the damn the more it is wedged into the mountains.
In every movie, there is always somebody who dies saving something or somebody...
How about the my little pony movie?? No one dies.

The Action Brick hell yeah wtf

Me, but only because I looked up “dam buster” looking for videos of a dam busting mission during WWII...but got this
why does every kid in a movie just sit n stay still instead of running towards safety n everytime someone has to lose their life saving them . damm kids!!
Not old enough to make sound decisions and likely in shock.
My point exactly
Some kids will automatically try to hide or huddle away where they feel safe. Watch some vids of children reacting to a fake fire or safety situation. Some parents think they’ve taught their kids to “do the right thing” in a dangerous situation, but when it actually happens, kids sometimes follow their instincts to hide instead of getting out of danger.
and it shows our greater humanity to rescue the helpless. beasts save themselves. tribes look out for each other. it's also why we're still here and the sabertooth s aren't.
and that kid will grow up with a need to serve, a passion for it. and enough survivors guilt to float a yacht.
And so, bitten by a radioactive Rhinoceros, Paul Giamati would remember this moment and become the Rhino, constantly plowing through every unlikely movie for years, seeking a battle with Spider-Man. Only to be denied time and time again.
Moral of the story : do not run with your hands wide open; also do not pick up some random kid if you want to survive a falling dam.
Why is he still carrying that backpack?

Comedy gold
It's supposed to represent the mark where you won't fall if the damn collapses, it's basically the end of the damn. It's put there so that people know when they're safe.
I like the way kim just swept away from the hoover dam
I like how the mother just left her kid somewhere at the corner, and all of a sudden appears at the end, kisses her forehead and takes her away
Just saying, that kid that broke down crying on the dam was natural selection...
It's a fucking kid if you wanna talk "nature": nature intends for adults to save them lmao
I was thinking the same thing, I would have probably left her thinking this unless I was the parent or I would have kicked her in the ass so that she runs to her mommy
What if i said the same if it was your kids or you, have you.ever even been in a dangerous situation in real life, ok i know this is just about a movie but if in real life something like this or any disaster happened would you like people to think the same about you or your kids. Because when a person panics more then likely they freeze up block themselves and don't think can't think even if they wanted to really bad.

I know way too much about this dam to find this believable. 🙈 There’s no way this type of dam could ever break like it did in this movie. Unless the fault line ran right down the center of Lake Mead, and the land shifted in opposite directions right where the dam crossed, all it would experience is some external cracks that wouldn’t even be deep enough to let water through. …and even then, it would have to be a VERY significant shift.
Sometimes I see this video come up again and just think, "Nah it isn't an earthquake, Megatron's just trying to escape."

Hoover Dam is not going down from San Andreas. It sits in a very solid canyon of extraordinarily strong rock and is both a Gravity and Geometric dam. It is one of the most solidly built dams on earth. It probably is not at risk of failure except due to internal technical stuff which probably isn't a catastrophic failure. Right now with the lake about 1/3 full and dropping failure is a non-starter
It's only a movie 🍿🎥
Good to know tho.
It is hundreds of miles from the San Andreas, loo.
I'll never understand how there is a small child just sitting somewhere crying for the hero to save.
Called dramatic tension.
I noticed how the earthquake stopped as soon as the dam collapsed.
Alright, I seriously doubt that a 7.1 could actually do that much damage to Hoover Dam. Heck, the odds of Hoover Dam experiencing a 7.1 are pretty slim too.
The San Andreas fault is near the Hoover Dam.
This movie is so inaccurate anyways haha it literally has a tsunami in it that shouldn’t exist 😂
Apparently it has been hit with a 7.1 before, with little to no damage, although I don't know far away the epicenter was. That said, it is still not completely cured and won't be until the 2050s. Thats how much concrete they poured when they built it in the 30s. Crazy.
Ik this is late but it can hold up to 8.2

Why should they get wet? the road surface on the dam is well over 100 feet above the water level.
I HATE little kids in movies
when I so the movie it almost made me cry and also it made me sad because the old man and the old lady there where hugging because the tsunami was coming 👫😢😖😞
Guitarfollower22 It's not the kids fault as when kids are in danger they usually hide as a natural instinct, blame the mom as she should've been there for her child.
Right? When I was her age, I'd take off running if I seen another person running. My number one rule is "If you run, I'm running". Sure it can be a little awakward having people staring at you while you run down hospital hallways and such, but it could save your life. So worth it.
This was released 6 years ago by children. The Dam still stands.
I've just visited the Hoover Dam today, and after learning how that thing was built, there's no way in hell that it would collapse this easily. But I guess that's Hollywood for you.

This scene touches my heart. to me, this means you should never take friendship for granted, you never know when you can lose that person.
Buddy, if anything in this film "touches your heart" then you may just need to take a good look at yourself. I mean, come on now...seriously...🤣

Pity he was such a dopey bollox. Ah well.
This movie is an example of all that is wrong with Hollywood.
Reality is a stranger to Hollywood.
@scottslotterbeck3796 Well. Here I am 7 years after I made this comment.
And I still feel the same about it. Lmao.
It's fun to watch disaster movies because they're choreographed like a ballet... every step the hero makes while running with the girl, the earthquake cracks appear 6 inches behind his feet! Amazing, almost like the earthquake knew (or cared) that the man was trying to save someone. And just as the ground collapses under his feet, he throws the girl into the arms of his colleague, maybe 8 feet away (has anyone EVER thrown a child more than 2 feet!?! They're heavier than they look), while falling! (even harder). And as the dam collapse sweeps away the hero, it leaves a clean break where his colleague safely stands without fear of falling - because the script doesn't want to kill him... yet. You have to admire the imagination of these Hollywood script writers, especially the disaster genre ones!
Wow incredible!!! Look how full lake mead is😀
0:22 that’s the girl who gets saved
