One of the better engineered beaver dams you've taken down. Lots of smaller sticks weaved throughout the face of the dam. This group must have a master's degree. LOL. Nice dismantling work 👍
The pressure of the water being held back is enormous. Beavers are fantastic engineers, I say it every time it's this volume of water. Good work as usual, you rule dude!
I battled with beavers for years when I was on the railway. We built what we called beaver baffles. 10-12' piece of plastic pipe,4-6" diameter with an elbow on the upstream end. Dig a trench in the dam and bury the pipe to whatever depth you want the water at. Bury, however, many pipes are needed with the elbows upstream,faceing down. Beaver do not like running water and will quickly bury the pipes in the dam. If done properly the pipes will continue to flow year round and help keep the water at a managable level. 1st beaver baffle I seen was made useing wood planks. It was still working may years after the beavers had disappeared.
WOW! That dam was holding back a TON of water, it seemed endless. Even by the end of the video, there was still a lot of water flowing. It was a "sticky" dam too, lots of interwoven small branches made it very strong. Great video as always, thanks for posting all your hard work!
That was cool,..looks like a smaller version of Niagra Falls,..that is a lot of water for sure,..it is so weird how all of the dams that you do are never the same,..they all are so different,..which is cool,..that is what makes it so interesting,..
Mantas awesome video. Love the drone coverage before and after the video. Talk about a major amount of water. How the land can dry out with the beaver dam removal. David B.,Utah, USA. 👍👍👍💖💖💞💞❤❤❤.
I was happy that you went back and worked on the dam after the water started flowing. It seems a great way to get rid of the dam using the flow of water. Not as much work lowering the dam!! Great video!
I love beavers. They are amazing creatures, and nature puts them there for a reason. Only recently have studies proven why they build natural firebreaks, increase groundwater levels, increase biodiversity, and decrease surrounding air temperature.
It amazes me how well built the beaver dams are. With the water pushing up against it and your efforts to remove them, they still stay in place until you break it down.
Is it the kid in me that makes me want to do that? LOL. I'm 62 I couldn't do that now but watching you do it brings a smile to my face. Thank you very much.
Hi Ken, great work as always. You know, I don't think you have to justify your work in every video. The tourists who pop in to complain about your work will always be there and they will always be ignorant and new to the channel. Just for myself, I would prefer that you not always try to placate them; just let your work do the talking.
That dam was really reenforced engineering by the beavers. The water had so much pressure behind it and the dam finally collapsed! Enjoyed the video!! 👍😊
What a fantastic job you are doing, this is draining the fields. Thank you for your effort . I wonder if all those who watch what you do this appreciate your commitment, thank you.
Wasn't a full collapse however, it was great! There was way more water there than I expected and it was swift for quite a while. Another great job, Mantas...👍👍
Stray safe keep up the great work 👏💯 just have a great time 👍👍💪 hey man hope you all are doing great 👍💯 i think of you guys all the time ❤️ praying for y'all tonight love y'all too
A lot of single short sticks, looks like when the beaver got done eating they took them to the dam. That dam looks like it was built slowly by just a couple of beaver. The removal was top notch like normal.👍👍👍
I’ll bet that on the inside of every beaver lodge there’s a wanted poster with your face on it. I throughly enjoy your videos and watching you take down the dams. 😊
You know how to pick the Jumbos....The compaction of that one was impressive, had almost enough debris & sticks there to save for the winter fires... Keep it going...
These are always fascinating to watch! Thanks for sharing! Would love to see footage from a cam a few hundred metres downstream, to watch the ‘flood’ arrive!
You do an amazing job on those dams with 2 simple tools - just a rake and a shovel! (And your muscle effort of course!) I have an observation - if you use a shovel with a longer handle, say about the length of the handle on your rake - it would offer you some greater leverage and a bit easier effort when dismantling those pesky dams. Keep up the good and entertaining work! 🙂
That was a huge amount of water. Keep doing what you’re doing. Beavers are destructive rodents. Latvia looks so similar to the prairie in Manitoba. So beautiful. Cheer. Watching you get closer to 100K. It will happen soon !!

Stay safe. Really appreciate these videos. Nice to watch and forget about the current mess in our lives in US.
Couldn’t agree with you more! 😀
Agreed....
That’s makes 3 of us that agree
Make that 4
Not just in the US
Great opening Drone shot.
No matter how many of your videos I watch, it never gets old. There is something very satisfying about seeing the water drain. Thank You for sharing.
and the sound of running water,

1 meter depth is not enormous pressure.
Like 7 psi.

“Disappeared” lol. Someone made themselves a nice waterproof hat. 😂 Poor silly beavers.
The Amount of sticks the Beavers put in that Dam means they are adapting to your collapse Technique lol The fight back begins!!!

That was a very old, and solid built dam! Excellent job taking it down. Stay safe!!!
Great drone footage! Stay safe!
Very nice! Thanks for letting us tag along!

It was a "sticky" dam too, lots of interwoven small branches made it very strong.
Great video as always, thanks for posting all your hard work!
Drone videos are beautiful! That is HUGE!! All videos are amazing, thanks you!✌🏼🫶
Do farmers give you requests, or do you have to go looking for dams to film?
Who needs a excavator when Mantus is around? Great video Mantas.
What an immense amount of water, i'm getting tired just watching you do the breaking of the dams. Well done ! God bless.
That was cool,..looks like a smaller version of Niagra Falls,..that is a lot of water for sure,..it is so weird how all of the dams that you do are never the same,..they all are so different,..which is cool,..that is what makes it so interesting,..
Mantas awesome video. Love the drone coverage before and after the video. Talk about a major amount of water. How the land can dry out with the beaver dam removal.
David B.,Utah, USA. 👍👍👍💖💖💞💞❤❤❤.
That was a massive dam, great work Mantas. So much water, was still draining fast even after the dam had been completely destroyed.
I was happy that you went back and worked on the dam after the water started flowing. It seems a great way to get rid of the dam using the flow of water. Not as much work lowering the dam!! Great video!

congratulations on 90,000 friends. Looking forward to 100,000 !
That was a monster dam. Massive amount of water let out. Great job.😊
I'm impressed at how much your dam removal technique has improved, since I first started watching.
Wow! That was a challenge! But glad that with your knowledge and experience you took it down quite safely! Thanks for sharing these videos!
It amazes me how well built the beaver dams are. With the water pushing up against it and your efforts to remove them, they still stay in place until you break it down.
Great job Mantas. A tough one but nothing can stop you from freeing the waters.
Is it the kid in me that makes me want to do that? LOL. I'm 62 I couldn't do that now but watching you do it brings a smile to my face. Thank you very much.
Wow that is a monster Ken and that was a super aerial shot to your very talented and a great Dambuster ❤ it’s still very deep be careful
The sound of the rushing water made me want to go fishing! Thank you! 🇺🇸
Hi Ken, great work as always. You know, I don't think you have to justify your work in every video. The tourists who pop in to complain about your work will always be there and they will always be ignorant and new to the channel. Just for myself, I would prefer that you not always try to placate them; just let your work do the talking.
I continue to be amazed at how fast you bring one down. I had thought it would take hours based on the nightmare beaver dam tales I have heard.
I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep up with the awesome work
That dam was really reenforced engineering by the beavers. The water had so much pressure behind it and the dam finally collapsed! Enjoyed the video!! 👍😊
Thank you Mantas for another superb dam collapse. Immeasurable amount of water - not unmeasurable. Hard work.
What a fantastic job you are doing, this is draining the fields. Thank you for your effort .
I wonder if all those who watch what you do this appreciate your commitment, thank you.
Very nice work That was pretty big Dam
90.6k subs! congrats
I love all your videos. They’re all excellent number one. Good luck my friend and stay safe.
That was an interesting take down! Lots of hard work! Great job once again Mantis😎
My first thought was how good the camera work was on the introduction. My second thought was what a monster of a dam…just wow. Well done sir.
Wasn't a full collapse however, it was great!
There was way more water there than I expected
and it was swift for quite a while.
Another great job, Mantas...👍👍
This was a great video! Love the format, and the hard work you put into removing that series of dams. Keep up the awesome work.
Thanks, Mantas for all you do!
Damn thats huge. Be safe and thank you
That ones going to make a big splash. Very good work Mantas. Those beavers will be hating you for sure!!
Stay safe. And keep up the good work. You must work nights to have so much daytime to remove those dams..............Jay
Huge dam!!! Good job!!
Gigantic dam,.awesome!
Bless you for your fine work😊
This was a nice change of pace, just an old-fashioned dam removal. Super fun for one time
What a huge amount of water. Great job!
You worked hard on this one. Great job!
The amount of energy that you put into your job of removing beaver dams is amazing. I always enjoy the views and job.😊
Boy that was a very well built dam! 👍🏽😊❤️🇺🇸
Excellent job! Thanks for your update on the European flooding issues. Keep up the good works
Best Dam builders in 🇨🇦 Canada 🇨🇦 great video sir. 75+🍁 hunter Yorkshire expat. Rumour has it the Beavers put a contract out on ya fella
wonderful stuff Mantas!! thanks for this!!
Another wonderful video. Thank you!
Stray safe keep up the great work 👏💯 just have a great time 👍👍💪 hey man hope you all are doing great 👍💯 i think of you guys all the time ❤️ praying for y'all tonight love y'all too
Have a great day Mantas!
They have certainly woven a lot of wood together there ! 🇬🇧🇬🇧

HA! The boots and the rake. Reminds me of post10.😁 Better don't mess with boss beaver.😁
Nice mix of taking it down. Keep up the good work
Beautiful job ken . 🇺🇲🇺🇲🪖🪖👮👮🚓🚓
You know how to pick the Jumbos....The compaction of that one was impressive, had almost enough debris & sticks there to save for the winter fires... Keep it going...
Not a huge rollover this time, but still very satisfying to watch. Great work.. well done..
loved the drone shots.
That was a tough one! Great job!
You are really doing a good job of removing that beaver dam. Well done.
Great job, mate 👍
I like it that the farmer removed the dam by hand instead of bringing in an excavator.
I don't have an excavator :)
that was one well put together dam with quite a build up of water. great drone footage. would take ages to drain
Hello Mantas , Welcome back 🙏 wow that is one big Beaver 🦫 Dam , but no match for the master destroyer . Another great video 📹 .
These are always fascinating to watch! Thanks for sharing! Would love to see footage from a cam a few hundred metres downstream, to watch the ‘flood’ arrive!

That was huge, and the sticks that was in there was so many. But you triumped again
Thank you for another great collapse and video x

Hello from the USA. I love the videos!
Hey!
Congrats to beavers, no rollover, well constructed dam😉😁
Another good one. That was a boatload of water.
Over 2,000 of you lovely people have watched but only 524 have hit the like button??
most people do a hit-and-run, just look as it gets advised to watch, its not there cup of tea
Cause you should leave the dam alone
@tomgood9205 Toxic ecology
This was a big job. You displaced a lot of water. The dam was well built by the beavers.
Wow that one really made you work for it. Awesome job anyway mate 🤙😎🇦🇺
Ur the best dam màn out on u tube !! All by Hand !❤luv u my Friend❤
Hiya Mantas! That one like it was going to beat you to the raking. And it just did.😂😂😂😂
Dam good work ! !
That was a lot of water.😮👍👍
That was definitely the best one to have a kayaker go down stream
That is a beautiful countryside.
Wow! What a big dam!!
Wow lot of pressure on that beaver dam be careful.
That was one huge dam.
I love how these all look like tiny dams until you stand next to them.
Looks Great 👍🏼
Thanks again 👍
Beavers who built it can't be too happy.
