  • Finished version of our Fontana Dam overflow video. I spent more time on the audio for this one than I ever have on any previous video...probably all of them combined! LOL Hope it makes you feel like you're really there!

    I’ve been going to Fontana dam with my brother and dad since the early 70s they used to have a little trolley that went down the side of the dam and you could go inside and take a tour we stayed at the Fontana Village of course PS awesome video

    I saw them open the gates in the mid-80's after TVA had performed maintenance on the flood gates. We found out about it the day before and my Mom went painting at the viewing area on the other side. Later my Dad and I went down to Cheoha.

    Killer video, can't imagine what it's like to experience in person with the wind and noise. Know they post release dates for Cheoah, do they do the same for Fontana...have never been able to find.

      Not really, releases at Fontana are not a scheduled thing, and pretty rare. They only do it when the lake level gets too high.

  • @FredtheDorfDorfman1985

    I’d love to see footage from a drone flown down into Fontana’s tubes, from both the gate and discharge ends, for an inspection. That’d be cool.

    • @killboydotcom
      @killboydotcom  8 лет назад +3

      They're not using those spillway for this, so there is nothing to see. This is flowing down the smaller sluice gate between them that is internal and hidden.

    They built an extra spill way to prevent a waterfall would have looked impressive, but I guess maybe it would have caused problems

      Nothing gets by you Stan! Hence the quotation marks around "jumps". A dummy was thrown over the edge. Rumor is it was never recovered.
