Honestly man, in my opinion, you are on the same level as Post 10 with this stuff. Well done and keep doing good work! Right, I didn't realize this would get as much attention as it did. For everyone saying Post 10 is shit because he rags on other people you need to consider the fact that he is actually raging on people who do a shit job I.E. excavator workers who do more damage to the culverts than the actual blockage. As for "pulling down a clog and throwing it back in to clog further downstream" (and yes Craig Cooper this is a call out to you) you need to realize two things. 1. Post does not do that all the time, he actually looks at maps and only does that when there is A. A large body of water I.E. A river, a pond, or the ocean in and of itself, AND B. that there are no other culverts or small bridges further downstream. And 2. If there are any culverts downstream he just picks up the blockage and puts it on the side of the road.
Technically since it's local gov's responsibility, that's what taxes should be used for. We have one of those street sweeper vehicles go by every 2 weeks. Also our drains are slanted to the side, kinda like in the movie IT, much harder to clog.
Agreed with the above - why do I pay for a service that I have to perform myself? I own my home and the land it's on, not the street. I shouldn't have to be taking care of something that someone else took care of. I already do that for a living at my job, I shouldn't have to do it in my home life too.
but when in a such situation you prefer to be flooded waiting for the tax paied service to come, do you? I think is very stupid this attitude... @@Dyanosis
The homeowners on that street need to take a leaf blower and clear the street prior to rains. That would prevent the flooding. Plus, THEY should clean their flooding problem instead of expecting someone else to do it for them. Proud of you and disappointed for them especially if nobody offered to pay you for doing THEIR job.
It's so nice seeing everyday people contributing to the community and not just waiting on government to do what is necessary to keep things functioning.
You do realize that "the government" is not a person, it's a congregation of people. So you're proud of people doing work, which also means you're proud of the government (since the government is... you guessed it... full of people).
Great job, great community spirit. What I don't understand is why with so much flooding and properties threatened I didn't see any of the owners out there. Good luck from Australia.
People grow up thinking the world is out to get them.. leads them to think they can't make a change. Areas like Detroit got swamped with crack too many problems swamp any system. Like leaves in a drain ;)
Often they are elderly residents, sometimes poor. Can't do it themselves & can't afford to hire someone to do the leaves for them. In my neighborhood the county comes around a few times in fall & sucks up the leaves that residents deposit at the curb. Backyard leaves, too.
Why are videos like this so satisfying? Like, I could be playing games or something, but I'm vibing out to draining streets. You and Post 10 are my go to guys for this. Maybe I'm looking too deep into it, but at the heart of every flooded street is a clogged drain. Clear the drain, save the street. Life's the same way. Our "clogged drains" are things that make it hard to deal with stress. Clear those situations away, and the stress drains out of you. Thank you, for doing what you do. It didn't have to be you. You CHOSE to help out. ~Respect.~
I was wondering the same thing, asked chatGPT. I didn't fully agree initially, but I do now. 1. Sensory Stimulation: Videos featuring intense visuals, such as swirling water or powerful movements, can provide a visually stimulating experience. The combination of vibrant colors, dynamic motion, and the sense of power or force can be captivating to the viewer. 2. Problem-Solving or Completion: Watching a process unfold and witnessing a successful resolution can be satisfying. In the case of unclogging, there may be a sense of anticipation or tension as the clog is being addressed, and the release or removal of the blockage can provide a feeling of completion or accomplishment. 3. ASMR and Relaxation: The term Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) refers to the tingling sensation some people experience in response to specific sounds or visual triggers. Videos featuring swirling water or intense vibrations might evoke ASMR-like sensations, which can be relaxing or pleasurable for individuals who are sensitive to such stimuli. 4. Curiosity and Novelty: The unique combination of elements mentioned in the phrase "Major Unclogging With Huge Ground Vibrating Whirlpool" may pique curiosity and offer something novel. People are often drawn to unusual or extraordinary experiences, and the sheer scale or intensity of the phenomenon described can capture attention and provide a sense of awe or wonder.
When government turns their back on the common folks it is time for the common folks to take matters into their own hands. You sir are a team player. Keep up the good work.
I always wonder who the home owners are that live on streets like that. They obviously dont give a shit about their own neighborhoods from the looks of things. Well thanks to the Detroit Drain Gang they obviously get to reap the benefits of their civil service to the community.
This was a good video, thanks for making it! The video shake should be addressed. Have you considered using a head camera? Also, have you considered using your far camera for a time-lapse? That would be fun for your viewers to see how far the water has dropped! Keep up the good work, communities need a lot more people like you! 🙏👍
I've seen a Cincinnati conservationalist he uses a long rake to clear out ditches that are feel like this he even goes into creeks and clears where bridges are jammed with tree limbs and leaves. The rake that you're using it's doing somewhat of a good job but if you get you a rake that is longer in length with less space between you'll do a lot more better than the break that you're using now. Thank you for what you're doing
Great job...I've suggested to a few people to get a different rake for what you are doing in your area...a potato rake may not be the best...perhaps a straight pronged garden rake may help you more than a potato rake in your aspect being in the city aspect...again this is just a suggestion nickyandell took up that but its your choice as to what to use...just a suggestion. Best wishes and thanks for the videos! Wirh a wider garden rake you may cut your effort in half. Just going off other draining videos I've watched...Thanks for doing this in your community! Every area has difficult needs for the supplies needed...
Keep up the good work and hopefully others in your city /neighbourhood will give you some help. You might like to try a lawn rake, or they are also called a spring tined rake, they have a wide fan shaped head and the tines are flexible. Not sure if you have them in the US. Best Wishes from the UK.
Hi mate I have watched all of your videos every single day and I love watching your video thay are great to watch all the time thanks for doing the video for me too watch everyday
Thanks for providing great content and doing what you do! So there's a drain on the far west side of Detroit that always gets clogged - it's by the Ford Road and Mercury Drive intersection, on the side street by the Walmart. Don't know if you've been over there, but might want to pop by sometime after a heavy rain.
I suppose that it is because someone is doing something to make life better that makes these videos so satisfying. It may not seem to be much but it is. If everyone tried to do their little bit life would be a lot better.
Thank you for doing this for your community! I really like the pulled back shots to see the whole flood drain like at 7:07. Was it sticks that kept the leaves from going through by themselves?
They can, but in this instance it was just too many leaves & a strong whirlpool = clog that needs to be cleared almost constantly. A garden rake would work better because if you run it back & forth it will push the leaves through.
Sticks may start a problem but once a pile of leaves build up it works all by itself and gathers silt/mud to seal the hole. It's like a beaver dam in miniature - only the grate itself forms part of it with the bars acting as an anchor for twigs to get caught in. Just as beavers use rocks to anchor logs and twigs before adding more material like mud, twigs and pebbles on top. All in all though it's just apathy of the people living on these streets not clearing them. Just a few minutes of spade work per house would clear all that mess in less than an hour - voilà! no more flooding 😑 Even less than that if it was done every day or 2, that's days worth of build up at least - if not more because it looks like the leaves are rotting too.
Wow we have nice whirlpool action here and much suction noise fantastic and i'm going to have to watch this a lot more times on repeat for that alone excellent keep up the good work.😄😄😄
Did you get a second camera? Love the new potato rake. Great work. Kind of funny, you're a guy helping out in Detroit, and the first comment is from Russia (I think). The wonders of the internet.
You need to buy a regular metal rake to rake leafs on the street drains. Much easier than what you are using in this video!! Good job on clearing the drains.
Yeah, Good Video You & Post 10 Are Good People. Back In The Day, We Bagged Up Our Leaves & They Went To The Landfill. Now, Everybody Just Blows Them In The Street, Surprise!?!
It never ceases to amaze me how quickly these flooded streets seem to drain. I’m also favorably impressed with your commitment to helping these folks to be safe. Unless I’ve missed something here, you’re doing this on your own - no one is making you do this. You are a gentleman who has put others ahead of himself.
Why oh why weren’t the residents out there….if l lived on that street I’d have the drain marked to show where the drain was for clearing..sometimes you just can’t rely on the authorities to be there.. Are you listening!!! Well done you x
No, the homeowners on the street need to keep leaves and debris out of the road in front of their house, and clean off the storm drain periodically, before it rains, silly!
Great job and thank you for caring. A garden rake would do a better job on street drains. It is wider and the teeth are narrower and will not get stuck in the grate as often.
Ok it was leaves but the entire street wasn't flooded so the city needs to look into that not every house had the problem from what we could see a change in the drain system might be in order but your part is great 👌🏼 👍
It'd be great if you were to set up a tripod so we'd get a wider view. It would also free up your other hand to grip the rake two handed. Thanks for the upload...
I wonder are they getting paid? If not that's very cool of them to go you tin the rain and clear the drains so traffic doesn't get backed up. I've seen some post10 and you seem to be a long the same thought and he said he isn't paid to do it. The world needs more people like you who do stuff like this simply becasue they want to help their commuities.
The water was so deep I didn't see the color of your boots until the water went down then I saw mt dew green thought it was a flattened bottle then saw it was your boots lol
You need to push the leaves through the gratesto get rid of the problem just putting the leaves aside just let's the dry off and blow back onto the road and starts it all over again
The city should employ you to do this I can't understand why your councils don't have any one doing this use child fishing net to get all those leaves float down to you drainage
Honestly man, in my opinion, you are on the same level as Post 10 with this stuff. Well done and keep doing good work!

Post10 is crap, all he does is slate others work and pull down a clog and trow it back in to clog further down stream
@@craigcooper75 you're wrong. Can you prove it ?
@@jonathancote1718 why would i need to prove it? He is pulling the blockage out and movingibg it further downstream ffs
Please get a garden rake. I like to watch but that whatever it is makes it inefficient. Still a good job.
@@craigcooper75 Post 10 does ALOT more than just unclogging drains on his channel. He is one of the BEST and intertaining RUclipsrs.
It always makes me wonder why the residents don’t keep the drains clear. Brilliant work though, you have a great community spirit.

The government is never going to do anything in a democratic run city.
It's a shame people in their communities don't rake their yards and dispose of their leaves properly so this doesn't happen.

this is literally stuff we pay the government in taxes to do
hopefully people who live on this street see how the flooding is remedied and will then make an effort to clear it up when it happens again.
Great job, great community spirit. What I don't understand is why with so much flooding and properties threatened I didn't see any of the owners out there. Good luck from Australia.
I struggle to understand thay one also. Five minutes of messing around with a rake and you start to make a difference.
I'm also from Australia.
G'day Gorillaau, you should be in bed now unless you are partying. I'm in WA.
People grow up thinking the world is out to get them.. leads them to think they can't make a change. Areas like Detroit got swamped with crack too many problems swamp any system. Like leaves in a drain ;)
Awesome thing is like the neighbor. Once he knows a little thing can be done. It's easy to avoid the swamp next time
Often they are elderly residents, sometimes poor. Can't do it themselves & can't afford to hire someone to do the leaves for them. In my neighborhood the county comes around a few times in fall & sucks up the leaves that residents deposit at the curb. Backyard leaves, too.

I just don't understand why the people that live there won't clear the streets once in a while. It's their homes in jeopardy. Good job dude.
I live in TN but I sure do appreciate what you do for your city.
Can anyone explain why these local home owners seem to take no interest in preserving their own property values?
Self-centeredness that's it enough said
Laziness
It the:”I pay my taxes so it’s the citys job!”

Great job. Loved the sound of the whirlpools!! I liked where u got the whole street view showing water level going down.
Quite relaxing lol and what a good deed! A guy, a backed up flooded street, and a small garden tool. 10 minutes later safer for everyone 💝😘.
Well I’m from Kansas City but thank you for helping the people of Detroit. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Sad that people that live on the flooding streets don't go out and do what you are doing instead of just letting it get deeper and deeper
its more than sad, its pathetic
They also need to keep the leaves out of the gutters. Doesn't Detroit have a leaf pick-up schedule in the fall/winter?
@@barbrn The city picks up yard waste biweekly from April until November.
@@vidaliasoleil2714 What about the leaves that fall onto the sidewalks and streets?
I suppose that it is because someone is doing something to make life better that makes these videos so satisfying. It may not seem to be much but it is. If everyone tried to do their little bit life would be a lot better.

What the heck, those drains are so tiny! Good on you for clearing them. 👍
You need a short piece of rebar to poke the leaves through the holes in the manhole covers. And a rake to put the leaves up on the lawn.
Just use your boots like Post10 does, to mush them through the grate😀
You need to buy a regular metal rake to rake leafs on the street drains. Much easier than what you are using in this video!! Good job on clearing the drains.
Best whirlpool I've seen in a while
Great job , wondering how long did it take to get the street back to normal ?? It certainly was satisfying !!!
Yeah, Good Video You & Post 10 Are Good People. Back In The Day, We Bagged Up Our Leaves & They Went To The Landfill. Now, Everybody Just Blows Them In The Street, Surprise!?!
If more folks would get involved in cleaning up the leaves, it would surely help. As for the dropped trash - what can I say!

Unless I’ve missed something here, you’re doing this on your own - no one is making you do this. You are a gentleman who has put others ahead of himself.
That drain sounded like a bunch of zombies in The Walking Dead.
It would be nice if you didn't only show the whirlpool but also show the actual street and how much it is draining... thank you for the vid

Two whirlpools and still a lot of water...amazing.
They need to go through there with a street sweeper to clean up the leaves
No, the homeowners on the street need to keep leaves and debris out of the road in front of their house, and clean off the storm drain periodically, before it rains, silly!
Great job and thank you for caring. A garden rake would do a better job on street drains. It is wider and the teeth are narrower and will not get stuck in the grate as often.
Awesome job my man keep‘em coming!
What a difference 1 person can make. Great job!
greetings from Grand Rapids Mi
Always amazed how fast it drains as soon the clog is removed.
You should have a sign on your Van saying ....
" Volunteer ....
Making Detroit a more beautiful place...
one drain at a time"
That building at the end was great!
The ASMR on this is YAAASSS
Doing a good thing for the neighborhood.
I lived outside Detroit for 3 years. Part of the problem is that the terrain is so flat you easily get ponding water after a rain.
Great work. One thing i'd suggest to make this easier is to get a wide rake like post 10 uses
Nice work I’m sure the residents appreciate it
many times the residents come out to thank me.
Excellent work 👍👍
Great job. I loved the video
that is a damn nice whirlpool, sir!
One detroitor to another. Keep killin it!
U guys r the best nice work keep safe
Show more wide shots for longer. it's fun too see the progress too
Was expecting Pennywise popping out of that whirlpool any second.....beep beep Ritchie
The perfect video, so nice
Excellent job. Well done
The street department should be taking care of this.
Lmao 2:00 it sounds like that video of the 'grapefruit method'
Ok it was leaves but the entire street wasn't flooded so the city needs to look into that not every house had the problem from what we could see a change in the drain system might be in order but your part is great 👌🏼 👍
My dopamine levels probably shot up after watching this.
Thanks!
Leafs: oh no it's the rake police 😒
It's amazing what trouble 🍃 can cause...
Great to watch ❤️
Awesome frickin' job, bruh !!
Good to see this doggo is alive
It'd be great if you were to set up a tripod so we'd get a wider view. It would also free up your other hand to grip the rake two handed. Thanks for the upload...
Sadly these problems are all over the city due to the well known issue of the city having one, if not the worst, city council in the USA.
I don’t know why the people that live there haven’t done this. And why knowing what could happen they don’t clean up the leaves in the fall
1:58 me after drinking nothing but soda all day😭😂
Dis tru
Whoa. A sound straight from hell!
Potato fork's a great tool !
THE NOISE OF THE SWIRL XD SOUNDS LIKE FARTING OR HEAVILY DRINKING WATER
Great job!
It's called a whirlpool !!
My goodness, the locals sure are lazy not going out and doing something.
I wish my city would leave me one street like this
I wonder are they getting paid? If not that's very cool of them to go you tin the rain and clear the drains so traffic doesn't get backed up. I've seen some post10 and you seem to be a long the same thought and he said he isn't paid to do it. The world needs more people like you who do stuff like this simply becasue they want to help their commuities.
I don't get paid. Thanks for watching
that is one angry whirlpool
The water was so deep I didn't see the color of your boots until the water went down then I saw mt dew green thought it was a flattened bottle then saw it was your boots lol
You need to push the leaves through the gratesto get rid of the problem just putting the leaves aside just let's the dry off and blow back onto the road and starts it all over again
Great sound effects for a Foley artist.
Dobra robota 👍
Iam from the UK we dont get blocks like that in are drains you no when u put your hands in the water do very worry about needles
looks like a two man job - one on either end. Too bad there isn't a street dept. to do maintenance an things like this.
The city should employ you to do this I can't understand why your councils don't have any one doing this use child fishing net to get all those leaves float down to you drainage
We need to see more street, not just a whirlpool.
Why do they make the holes so small for the drains there
Not sure how to feel, living in a city that keeps up drain maintenance 😅
