I hate to barge in here like this, but frankly
I don't give a dam
Touché
god dam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
This is what happens when no body is paying attention.
Wow I used to weld and fit on barges like these , it took a great amount of power to do that so quickly
What was on the barge?
I remember this day very well, we all got yelled at by the road foreman for stopping work to watch these few moments and then he turned off the TV and said yall are a buncha idiots and get back to work. 😂😂😂
Why can't they just secure these barges? Is it so complicated?
You mean before or after they sank?
@@daviddickey9832 Before they become runaway barges
They were secured but then they broke loose. They managed to catch them, only for the flood waters to yank them loose again and then they hit the dam
Imagine 6 million square miles of ice melting at once.
Well the Arctic is melting pretty fast and the Russians have ice breakers and ships that can go in there not anyone else really
Now that the barge is stuck on the bridge. Just how are the engineers going to remove them?
It ripped apart and got sucked through
So now what ?
Wow incredible damgers!
The barges did not break apart.
New angle!
Look how filthy that water is already!
That's the normal color of the river there.
All rivers usually turn that color after a heavy rainstorm.
That’s a dam shame
😂
Tastless
Warning: No boating in this area.
Fertilizer has to help the far farmers down river that is.
God dam
That's not going to be good for the environment all that fertilizer
no, its just nitrogen, it dissolves in water.
That samer fertilizer flows into the Arkansas from agricultural fields in countless states. The only difference here is that it's all congregated on some barges. Compared to the whole those barges are not even a drop in the bucket.
GOD DAM!!!! LOL
If it would have been lost grain, they would have jacked up the price on everything and been poor mouthing about that. Unfortunately, the weather warfare is wreaking havoc on farmers getting their crops in. When the technology exists to control the weather, there shouldn't be flooding or drought anywhere.
I hope the technology to control weather like what is seen in science fiction is never invented, At least not as long as humanity acts how it does today. What starts as giving farmers rain and stopping an EF-5 from wiping out a chunk of a midwestern city eventually becomes some idiot at the DOD thinking of ways to use it for the exact opposite of preserving life.
They have been manipulating the weather since at least Vietnam. There is otherworldly technology that has most definitely fallen into the wrong hands. Gotta look and think outside the box.
My oldest son holds 3 degrees in the climate field. He would strongly disagree with you.
@@merkur8777 Three degrees are impressive, but what it says is you had to pay a lot of money to have people you don't know tell your son how to think. It also doesn't teach common sense and it doesn't show a person how to think for themselves or outside the box. Nothing personal against you or your son.
Barges are overloaded on the river and sink
The barges were not overloaded. Their moorings broke free in the unprecedented flooding we experienced!
They should’ve closed the damn gates brought a tug out to those barges and brought them back to Dock not sure why they didn’t think of that
I suspect it would have damaged the gates trying to close them against that force of water.
I work on the river. We push barges. You can't close the gates with that amount of water. These gates is how they keep the river at a certain depth. If not you would flood everything on the lower end and have just a creek on the upper end!
If you close the gates you could lose the dam, that would be much worse.
This the 3 world, no one was doing something.
Speak proper English like you got at least a taxpayer paid education before talking smack about what someone else is not doing
Like watching the Biden Administration !
