We’re going to get a flood of comments on this one.
Everyone will be spouting off about something.
Yeah, these geyser crazy!
Water you guys talking about?
I haven’t a clue, I’m still gushing about this weekend.
Oh, I sea. Monday is a bank holiday in the US.
PINGAS
The driver of that pickup will have to sewer government.
And the message? Just cuz you think they’re drained doesn’t mean they won’t blow out again.
OH OH OH… the english humor!
Yeah, all those Swedish-born Americans really dig our humour!
He is all washed up anyway.
everyone calm down, don’t go blowing a gasket.
Why do people keep -driving- through this? Usually my first thought when seeing lots of water on the road ahead of me is to not keep driving toward it.
The vehicle entering the flood at 00:10 was doing about 50mph. By the time he realised there was water (too much) it was too late.
I’m willing to bet he was hard on the brakes, locked up and aquaplaning into the flood at about 50mph.
Also, they’re on a highway. It’s not like they can just take the first right.
I sure hope the people in the car were okay…
Well, let’s see here…
Brad, the driver, was a real smart guy but got jealous easy, making him a bit of an a$$.
Janet, Brad’s passenger and fiancé, was fairly shy but rather nice. She had problems staying true to Brad though.
So yeah, two pretty okay kids.
Tell me more! How did Janet and Brad met?
Go see the man who began it, when they met in his science exam-it made him give her the eye and then panic…
It was during a long dark night many years ago at the home of a certain Dr Frankenfurter.
It’s just a step to the right…
Then they met up with Dr Frankenfurter at his castle run by his whacky staff Magenta, and Riff raff and his guests Columbia and Eddie
This little thread here is more epic then the video.. win xD
The reason they stopped was because they hit the manhole cover (BIG!!!) or it hit them. Looks like it hit the hood and the passengers were ok if they were wearing their seatbelts. But they were wicked lucky.
I also would keep driving.
haha, first!
to fail!
Yet again. It’s so sad
Not only that, he’s a fister!
Underground/undercover whale win!
If I go to a water park, I want a better ride….
in soviet Russa, Rain comes Out of storm drain!
lol good one!
Woohoo! Fuzz!
*starts bubble machine*
*wiggledances in bubbles*
Wooty-woot, Fuzz!

Failblog poll:
How many of you are sitting at work waiting for a broadcast e-mail saying you can go home early?
*holds up hand, but knows it ain’tgonnahappen*
*doesn’t hold up hand*
*is at work, but knows the chances of getting sent home early are slightly less than the chances of the Earth suddenly exploding*
*

Me! Me! Me! Actually, I’m off in…
*looks at computer clock*
…five minutes! Woohoo! So I’m just gonna say “have a good weekend everybody! See you Tuesday!”
*leaves squeezes for the peeps*
*runsawaywithaquickness*
*takes a squeeze*
*leaves one in a Ziploc™ bag, which will keep it squeezably-fresh until Tuesday*
Me too! 2 hours and 40 minutes left.
*raises paw*
More wrong you could not be.
What is a job?
Who wants to bet BP installed the drain?
Red Forman?
Build Pimples?
Bum Propulsion?
British Petroleum?…oh…did I miss something?
Bring Pomegranate?
Well, my Brother’s Prius broke down, so I may not bring anything at all…
Sorry to hear that! Will you Be Pedaling, then?
Sure! For added challenge, I’ll Buy Pumps to pedal in.
Oh my goodness! Are they the Bold Patent ones? I love those!
This is one of the Best Pun runs I’ve seen in a while.
FailBlog meets Whose Line Is It Anyway.
You folks got way off track, he was originally talking about Breathing People. The evidence is right in front of you, first the drain inhaled and then it exhaled.
They really need a backflow preventer.
Minneapolis FTW!!!
For The Win?
That’s what that means?
It does now!
*squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze*
And that is from Minneapolis. 35W is known well for blowing its stack after too much rain.
Isn’t that close to where the bridge collapsed? If it is, then i ain’t NEVER driving through that city.
Yes, actually this is the freeway just South of downtown Minneapolis. The bridge collapsed just North of Downtown. There is a “sister” freeway to the East side (35E) that goes through St Paul, but you have to drive 45, so I’ll take my chances with 35W.
Ahh, the days when fails were fails and fuzz was fuzz.
Were there ever fuzzy fails, Qwaz?
Only ones where someone doesn’t get it.
Oh, or animal related fails.
Congratulations, you did.
WTF was that?!
That’s just a huge amount of stormwater. Its possibly near a hill and if there is too much water in the drainage and exceeds it’s limits, it can break up the manhole cover.
Looks to me like the force from a crashing wave at a coastal city. It’s possible that this is a coastal area that, within a short distance from this thing, there is a high-tide during a thunderstorm. In a flash flood situation, the waves crashing into a drainage system could generate this kinda force at a seemingly random interval.
It’s from Calgary, AB…not coastal at all. This happened a couple years back…just too much rain in too short a period of time for the sewer system to handle it…
And the exploding drain hits an overpass… Oh, the phallic humanity!
Wow! I would hate to be on of those cars!
That’s not a second car, it’s the grate that *was* over the drain.
That’s a dayummmm big grate, isn’t it? Wonder if the guy in the truck survived that collision?
whut?
The Earth either had diarrhea or needed to take a piss. If it’s the latter, who knew Earth was a woman?
Let’s just say I’ve never heard of anyone referring to Father Earth.
So Mother Earth’s a squirter? Who’d have guessed
Have a blast!
In soviet Russa Water falls up.
Well. I feel better about the local flooding NOW.
Basement-level shops here in Singapore were hit the worst, good thing the floating bodies were all mannequins.
Where is the rest of the video?
Looks like Chuck Norris Flushed the toilet
this is from a radio show. the dj told everyone who was listening to flush their toilets all at the same time and this was the result. i cant remember exactly what radio or channel, but’s its on youtube.
Shenanigans.
It happened near where I’m from- it was just a water pipe bursting.
I’m awash with shock!
Just when I thought *I* had the worst luck in the world. This is epic, Biblical, Gods-out-to-get-you kinda bad luck.
No, it was a storm drain at the bottom of a hill, when the water reaches a certain level a blast pump is activated to force the water to the top of the hill and away again down the drainage system, but the pipe is blocked so the result is the geyser you see. Also it is not lightening, it is a street lamp shorting-out from the water and exploding with a great flash.
they already have this video on failblog its on here at least twice now.
It’s a “Friday rewind” love… read the title!
Older then my grama, and shes old…
Looks like Shredder finally got back at those four pesky turtles.
Free instant car wash!
THERE SHE BLOWS!
I’d be on my way to the hospital to get an IV of bleach started.
Hey. I know this one. Its from Calgary Alberta Canada.
I think it’s fake. At 11 seconds in u see a car go in at extremely high speeds and it somehow stops dead in its tracks…vewy vewy phishy…..
Erm… yeah… ‘some reason’ = a bloody massive 3 foot drain cover that lands on the bonnet or hood… as can be seen when the water clears… that cover will be VERY HEAVY, and if you’ve ever driven through even a medium sized puddle at high speed you will know how much that slows you down… so imagine that much water…
They might have gotten seriously hurt to come to a stop tat fast when the massive drain cover landed on the hood.
Hopefully they were ok.
It’s a lot bigger than 3′. Look at the person. And I want to know how they got the bloody thing back on before the second blow. I hope the occupants of the car got out. To be hit not once, but twice, I think that would ruin my night.
OH MY GOD what in the world caused that D:
old!
i saw this couple months ago on some other site
Jesus. Hope whoever was in that truck made it out alive.
That’s crazy..
Foe WaterDrain used Hydro Pump!
It’s super effective!
I guess someone pushed the full flush button a little too hard?
that took place in calgary canada it was cuased by a sudden down pour andthe storm drain abt 100 meters away was being repaired
A wild car appears!
Go road!
Sewer troll used geyser blast!
Its super effective!
Yup this was a couple years ago In Calgary AB Canada where I live the whole city was flooded. This is just off Glenmore Trail.
Just another drive around town..
Nice one..
now that’s crazy.
man, this is so old! i saw this in like…2008! its still a great video though
Sucks for the guy on the opposite side.
This was actually from Minneapolis, MN in 1999. Happened again in 2004, except the manhole was bolted down. It’s from a storm drain system that was badly designed – drains weren’t large enough, and multiple drains converge in that area. When a storm pushes the system beyond its capacity, pressure builds, and once the pressure reaches a certain point, the result is what you see in the video.
People who say that this is from Calgary, it isn’t.

If you go to “Street view”, you’ll see they’re fixing the problem.
everybody calm down, don’t go blowing a gasket!!!
A little late, but what the heck…
DRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINAGE! DRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINAGE, Eli, you boy!
Haha carwash!
IMA FIRIIIIN MAH WATEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERS.
I have a confession to make…. My mothers birthday is july third… I cant really remember her party in ’99, but the cops told me it was a wild blowout when i woke up. I think we might have caused this.
This is not rare, it happenes every time a lorry passes by me.
