Unclogging Culverts Under Frozen Pond To Drain Flooded Road With Huge Powerful Whirlpools.

- I do not encourage anyone to enter culverts, unclog anything, or enter flooded areas as it can easily become deadly without the proper training
I unclog drains for fun in my spare time (I have been trained in culvert inspections for years with private co.) and I am osha trained.
Exploring anything abandoned can be dangerous or deadly without experience. I don't encourage anyone to enter any abandoned structures. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal, and when possible I seek out permission from the owner or local police. I simply go to document its history before it's gone forever and I leave things the way I find them. I only take pictures and only leave footprints. I assume all the risks and responsibility before doing this. Please don't attempt to do this on your own. There could be nails, asbestos, falling concrete, soft floors, animals, or other hazards.

I am going to try to fix the big high boots, I'm leaving this comment because there's so many people saying I should try using bicycle tire patches or a pool patch. I think that's a good idea but the only problem is the rip is in the fabric part of it with the rubber in between it, I don't know if I'm going to be successful or not but I'll try it. Thanks for watching
That is what I was going to suggest, post10...you beat me/us to it lol
Contact the manufacture, I’m certain they make patching kits. The boots sound like some of the raft material, if the boot manufacture is out of business then a raft manufacture like Aire might have what you need. Don’t toss those boots, they should last many years.
Or maybe they might just hook you up with a new pair the boots !? Never know 😎👍
Good Waders and worth their weight in gold, as they say. If you cannot save the torn wader, keep the ‘good’ one. You never know you might be glad if this happens again. As long as you don’t end up with 2 left or 2 right waders. 😊. I can imagine at some future date you’ll find yourself explaining why you have odd waders on! 😆. Go you!
They make patch for your specific application. Ones made for breathable hip waders, neoprene dive suits and such. The kit is less than 10 bucks on Amazon.
Do NOT use a tire or pool patch, the adhesive they use won't work with that fabric.
Post reminds me of old RUclips, people showing the world their passion and enjoyment of an activity without pushing 20 gazillion ads and sponsors. Informative and genuine enjoyment of what you do with the willingness to bring us along with you, thanks post, stay safe and keep those toes warm in this cold weather
It's nice, but it needs to be a profitable enterprise.
Literally some of the best content RUclips has to offer.
AGREED!!!
Spot on.
No argument from me! Sometimes the homepage suggestions throws up an absolute diamond!!
yes i agree, both his channels are great! i really appreciate all he does to create such good content
True, been watching for years and i still love it! The longer the video, the better ^_^
Safety wear companies! Please sponsor this wonderful man!
Will pay off big time!
This guy's passion about unclogging pipes rivals Steve Irwin's passion of conservation.
And both are stand up lads.
Post, three things. First, get a swimming pool vinyl liner repair kit. When you find the leak in the waders, you'll have the stuff to repair it. Second, how about a bright green or orange ping pong ball to let go through the culvert so that people can see how long something takes after you open it? Third, ought to be some kind of measuring pole you could shove in the pond, so that we could get a better visual on how much water has been released. Just a few thoughts. You keep up the awesome work man! Oh, and it ain't the heat, it's the humidity. Once you get above 85 degrees, any humidity over 80% is going to make it utterly miserable. Last summer, we had a stretch of 90+ degree temperatures, with over 90% humidity. The Heat Index was over 105 most of those days.
Good suggestions, although the ping pong ball would be hard to retrieve and it's kind of littering? Maybe a tangerine that would at least decompose and/or provide food for a critter?
@@dianeladico1769ood idea. Years ago I went on a oil pipeline spill drill where we got to the site by airboats and helicopter. We set up boom and all that then they dropped a bunch of oranges in the creek and we saw how the boom worked to divert floating things on the water to a little slough where we set up a skimmer.
@@dianeladico1769 biodegradable something ball made for just this reason?
"I found the pipe" post 10 you were so excited just like a small kid at Christmas
@@TheBntimmins Wow, didn't know they even had those-cool.
His excitement for clearly debris is just so genuine it’s addicting to watch. Also it’s extremely satisfying to watch. Keep on keepin on
That whirlpool was off the hook awesome! The second culvert was like a garbage disposal sucking those huge ice chunks. What a fun video!
I consider u the KING of culverts. Why because I've seen others yt's doing what you do. They don't explain anything on why their doing. You explain the the pros and cons. On removing, not removing the beaver dams, secondary beaver dams. Among others things as well. Thank you for being you!❤️🤗
Having been born and raised in south Louisiana, (I'm 67 and still haven't adjusted to the heat!), I have to say that iced over ponds or drainage ditches is not something we ever get to see. I enjoyed living vicariously through you. Thanks for that. Now, I'm going to put on a coat just for effects😊
I love how wholesome you are, please don’t change.
Love how you care for the wildlife. Great video again.
Great episode with beautiful Winter scenery, thank you Post 10.
Sad time in the UK right now. Just two days ago in the English Midlands, four boys went through ice resulting in three deaths, the fourth being in critical condition. Goes to reinforce that a frozen lake needs to be treated with great respect.
Thanks again for the video.
I saw that on the news. God! So heartbreaking.
So sad all four boys died.
Thank you for All the hours of the good positive content. You have a great part in keeping me sane the last few years. Keep up the amazing work 🙂.❤️
Dennis from Denmark
Same for me.
WInter content means I've spent another year with you. Thank you for all the content.
If you want to get bigger whirlpools, I suggest clearing the output pool so the water can drain away faster. What matters for the flow rate is the difference in water level between each side, so if you can get the water level down on the output side it will flow faster. The water level was about 90% of the way up the first culvert when it was flowing fastest, so there was potential for it to go much faster.
Post 10 is an absolute legend! Top quality content and a work ethic second to none. Much love from the other side of the pond in England.
Ah, the never ending saga of Post 10 vs. The Beavers 😂
And the same six beaver facts 10 times per video, every video lol
I miss those days as a kid 😄
I love how excited you get about the water not flooding the road, or the leak you discovered in your high boots or the fact that the ice chunk made it through the culvert in one piece. It's all so cool.
This channels is proof there's always an undiscovered niche of content.
Man I had no idea clams can live in a freshwater pond and get that huge! Crazy. Makes me want to learn more.
Those are mussels and are quite tasty.
Mussels are delicious.
@@kearnsey64 my favorite shellfish
@@kearnsey64🤤
Where post 10 goes water flows. Would you have ever thought just doin drains and culverts you would have over 600k subs. The amount of time and effort you put into your videos is amazing. Sleeping in your vehicle just to give us content. Bathing in a creek. It blows my mind how hard you work. Keep em coming. Have a merry christmas
Best comment!!
I now want a, “Where Post 10 goes, water flows” t shirt!
Hi post10. Love your videos and all your channels. I'm always impressed at your geological knowledge of the areas you visit. I congratulate you on being a great Stuart of the environment. I play your videos on the "mix" while I'm working around the house for about 3-4 hrs a day. Thanks for all you do and the entertainment.
Ha, ha. Should be steward. Stupid auto correct
@@marysampson3551 I hate that stinking autocorrect, lol!
@@marysampson3551 or stalwart even, a stalwart steward is our post.
@@marysampson3551 I feel the same way! And then I found the edit feature...grin...
I like that you talk to us the whole time you are working. Almost feel like we are right there with you. Great job
Another super ASMR satisfying unclogging video from Post 10!
Gotta love his enthusiasm for what he does and his knowledge of the environment, he is a one of a kind guy that can never be replaced by anyone else
Me and my family all sit down on the couch at night and watch your videos. We all talk about it and say WOW! Look at that!
Even my parents watch your videos. They’re 65. Keep doing you. We all love your videos.
I like how you just enjoy life to the fullest.
While the war rages on between Russia and Ukraine, I take comfort knowing that somewhere in the north country wilderness, there is a man diligently chopping away at beaver dams, freeing the flow of water from place to place, making the world a little bit better place. When I could be watching something super interesting on Netflix, I find myself drawn instead to Post 10's content, which always puts me in a better mood. Thank you for putting yourself out there, my friend!
have you seen a vid this guy made from like 2 years ago? he was legit pointing out stupid stuff and saying "wow people have no respect these days" because they dont want there engine flooded.
all because they where driving on a sidewalk.
its amazing how fast the water level rised on the second cam, keep this amazing videos coming brother greetings from Spain!
His enthusiasm is the best. Great vibes.
Most fun watching you. Great culvert flows. That whirlpool was awesome. Couldn't help but laugh watching you breaking ice. Reminds me of last winter when you were doing it too. Fun times. Glad beavers are safe for the winter. Stay warm.
I really like your videos and the enthusiasm you have and the excitement you have when you open up a culvert.
Love your optimism and willingness to get the job done, no matter how difficult. ❤
Thanks for including us in your adventures, Post.
Your enthusiasm is wonderful. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Not sure how you ended up in my RUclips feed but I’m glad you did. The power of water and the ingenuity of beavers I can watch your videos for hours Many Thanks from Vancouver BC 🇨🇦
Super satisfying whirlpool with icebergs. This is such a gleeful blend of service, education, exploration, and just plain fun "kid playing in a creek" energy. Never stop ❤️
Some of the only 50+ minute long videos on RUclips that don’t have any urge to skip through, it’s all so satisfying 🤟 keep up the good work
Absolutely fasernating video. Thanks. Chris from England
Hi Chris! I love that you say thanks often on the same channels that I watch! This guy makes lovely videos and I love his excitement. We all should say thanks more often! Have a good week!
From western Massachusetts USA :-)
@@patchurch1677 Alas Pat people just watch and forget all the energy and effort put into the making of the videos. Thank you for most kind reply.
Watched the whole video, very satisfying and comforting. I find watching these while I cook is awesome
This guy is both nerdy and delightful. He’s no doubt a lovely friend to have.
I love when I’ve been watching one of Post10’s vids for a spell and I’ll touch the screen to see how much of the video is left and it’s still like 30 min left I’m totally like “Yes! Cool!”
Yet another fantastic unclogging, and it's so good that you revisit places that I remember from previous videos. You really are so fortunate to find yourself in these amazing wild locations. I keep asking myself what happened to April, the adorable star of your content in times past?
She is in a new home. Postie said he was working to much and wasn’t able to spend enough time with her. We know he loved her though and wanted the best for her.
She was in a previous video a month or so ago, very very briefly. He didn’t mention her, but I commented about her. I’m surprised more hadn’t noticed. If it wasn’t her it looked just like her
I LOVED this video. First off it is great seeing the water flow away but I get such a kick out of watching you enjoy throwing things into the whirlpools and smashing the ice. It is like watching a kid playing in the water. I think that is half the fun for you in these videos. I know just how you feel! Keep up the great work. 😂
I was having an anxiety kinda day today and then I remembered how calming your videos are, and with some breathing exercises and watching your videos I feel much better. Thanks for the content. I might go re-watch the lake camping video next, when you slept on a frozen lake. Those camping videos are really fun
What a ripper dams removed and a puncture in the war of clearance. You give so much content film and narration which explains more to do with the area.
Great job as always as nothing stops your get up and go . Thank you.
some people need coffee..... I need to see culverts cleaned out lol
I feel you would benefit from using a 6 foot pry bar to help loosen things up before going after the clog with your rake. Good for smashing through ice, too. :)
Thanks for all the work you do clearing up these drains
Always enjoy your channel
Satisfying
I just love your videos and the knowledge you have not only about beavers, but the ecosystem and how you care about taking care of it. I'm not a big conservationist, but I do believe we have a God-given duty to be good stewards of it. Keep up the good work and Merry Christmas, Post!
OMG that title! I know I'm in for a treat!
Edit: I'm half way through and this is already the most awesome video in ages, I started watching last winter when you and ghost were breaking the ice after draining another icy pond, great times, this is that plus whirlpools and more!
Not only is it fun to watch the power of the water & the whirlpools... but just being in nature, looking at the trees , the ice, and Especially your antics and awesome enthusiasm..... just delightful.
😊
Also the quietude! No cars blasting by, no skonky voices, no Subway smell ....
23:00 Post transitions from "Clearing Mode" to "Play Mode." Playing "Poohsticks" with ice chunks (winter rules).
"I love watching ice get sucked in." Tell us something we don't know, Post. 😁😁😁 One rarely gets to see such unbridled joy in a video.
Another day of fun, tearing out dams, breaking thick ice and sending it thru the culvert! The big ice chunks were cool to watch get sucked down! Hate you got holes in your tall boots!You could probably keep that clam as a pet. LOL When I moved out here years and years ago, 2 old women neighbors had a scoop pond in their yard. When they went fishing, they'd bring the fish home and dump them in the pond until they were ready to cook them. Then they would scoop out what they needed to eat. Their family had been there for generations before power and refrigeration got out this far down the bay. I learned a lot from them. Keep the videos coming. I love them all.
Best video from 2022 draining a Culvert.
Post you have the most calming videos. I find the water sounds so soothing. Thank you so much to sharing your adventures with us 😊💞
Beautiful. Thanks as always for taking us along for the ride, P10.
I appreciate you doing these public services and uploading it for our entertainment/ to be more knowledgeable.
this is so satisfying been following ur channel for a while now and love it all thanks from Australia
God Bless you for all of your hardwork! ❤️, Safety First as always tho
I do admire the way you respect nature and all living things. Salute and Thank You.
I have shared your videos with friends, I find your work interesting! I've even bought myself a rake that I take hiking!
I’ve put in a nice bit of drainpipe(8”) and have been so excited to see it in action. So far we haven’t gotten enough rain to even make it dribble. Maybe just having it in has proved effective? Like never needing jumper cables so long as they’re always in the trunk. Love the hi vis. Cheers
I wish I had as much passion, about anything, in the last 65 years. I hope he never stops sharing his passion.
One of many unsung heroes of society that we rely on but rarely know exist. Your service is appreciated by all even if they don't know it.
Fixing tears/holes: get some Aquaseal. Turn the wader inside out. Use a thin layer of the Aquaseal around the edges of the tear or hole, and let it sit for a few seconds. When the Aquaseal is tacky, apply a patch down over the tear and press it into place on the seal, then hang up the waders, still inside-out, to dry for about 24 hours. You can put extra Aquaseal around the edges to make sure the patch is completely sealed up too, if you like. That should last for a while.
I love how much fun you have!
Pure joy in simple fun! Great job! 😎❤👏
I am convinced this guy and beavers are working together so we can watch these whilpools multiple times.
If this happens again, I'd love a camera placed at the other end of the pond with sound, just to listen to the cracks as the pond drains, one of the best sounds ever!
You do amazing work. I absolutely love your videos. Your excitement is so pure an refreshing. I get excited about the whirlpools just from hearing how excited you are. You’re truly an amazing human…..keep up the great work.
forever my favorite youtube channel
I would love to be in there helping. Thats right up my alley! Thank You!
"I can feel excavator damage on my feet!". You definetly need to put that one on merchandise.
My thoughts for boot repair/improvement.
Grab some sheets of course kevlar, and a can or two of flex seal.
spray down a surface coat of flex seal onto the upper of the boot, but not the sole. go as far up the boot as you feel necessary (i'd probably stop at about mid-ankle to maintain flexability). Once that's just slightly tacky, lay the kevlar sheet/strips down onto the boot in a way that doesn't impede flexibility too much. across two points from toe to heel, spray a light pass of flex seal and attach thin strips that go down and across the tread of the boot. ideally, these would go into the grooves of the tread so you don't walk on them. the strips going across the tread do NOT need flex seal sprayed on them, they're plenty durable on their own. stick the strips on both sides of the upper so they're held in place, then coat with a light pass of flex seal. once that becomes slightly tacky to the touch, coat in a thicker (but not too thick, since flex seal takes ages to cure when thicker) pass of flex seal. a final light pass should be all it takes to ensure they won't puncture, rip or tear anymore. the two strips across the tread are to prevent this sprayed on upper from lifting away from the original boot.
Great work, awesome whirlpools and ice cracking. Many thanks for the interesting commentary too. Keep up the good work. You deserve a medal. Best Wishes Pete (Manchester UK)
Love your genuine enjoyment for your job.
I've never seen a freshwater clam that large.
Freshwater clams and mussels will do best in an tank running for over a year. They need soft substrate and plants. They also need a lot of water movement so that food is constantly being moved past to filter.
One of the best whirlpools so far. I love how the stick made smaller whirlpools that got sucked and assimilated by the bigger one. Like a black hole eating some planets
The scenes you show us is just beautiful and I don't know why I enjoy watching the clogs get broken. I get scared for you sometimes because it looks so dangerous. You have to know what you're doing to be able to do this and you have proven you definitely know what you're doing. Keep up the great job.
This guy really loves his job. He keeps us engaged
Good morning Sir.
Once again I wanted to thankyou for always posting very educational and informative videos for us to enjoy. Nice job and keep up the excellent work . Hagd thanks 😎👍you rock Be Safe
It amazes me how similar fluid dynamics are between this and the air when it comes to vortexes that form. Look at the smaller, little vortexes that temporarily form and rotate around the main "funnel" in this vid. You see the same thing sometimes in storm chasing footage when smaller tornados will form and rotate around the main tornado.
cool!
you should put a tin can or spray can lid over the marker post while clearing the culvert just in case you slip and land on it.
I used to live in South Africa and I now live in Ireland 🇮🇪. Watching you makes me very homesick and a little jealousy creeps in.😊
You know its a good unclogging when it makes you wiggle in your chair.
I can't remember the last time I saw someone doing something just because it needed to be done. If only I could put your work ethic into most of my guys. Thanks for reminding me there's still hope for this generation. Keep having fun, and thank you.
So much fun to watch. When I was young, we would sometimes use bicycle tire patches to fix high boots temporarily. Merry Christmas, Post 10..
Hey Post, next time your out at a frozen lake, can you try skim some stones over it to see if it makes a cool echo?
P.s. love your content :)
Post 10 having way to much fun
Those big clams were seeders. Clam lovers in the district will thank you for that. 👍👍
What's their purpose in the nature of life?
@@orfeous breeding. The more mature the clam, the better breeder. They filter water for nutrition
@@PilotMcbride so those mussels were placed there and are not indigenous? I think this is Maine, although I don't know how close to the rocky coastline.
@@jonathanjudd3168 freshwater mussels are found everywhere. Our local area (not in US) was renowned for them until they were fished out early last century. Never truly recovered, but if you look hard enough, long enough some can be found.
Edit: Wouldn’t have a clue whether they’re indigenous or not, seeders is a turn we used corz “breeders” had bad meanings for our locals back then, 😂😂😂. Trust me, you had to be careful how you said ‘six’ around our way when I was a kid, 😂😂😂.
The area looks SO picturesque......🖼👨🏻🎨🎨
Nice video, Post 10
TY for sharing and editing
Tom 😎
So many cool parts to this one. I have crappy sound and I could hear the water rushing through before it showed up on camera 2, it dragging those large ice sheets down, the little satellite whirlpools and the air beneath the ice sheet at the secondary culvert. This one was a hit among all your hits.
Also, I like the large split screen on camera 2. Makes it much easier to see. Please do that if you're able and it doesn't obstruct camera 1 too much.
Excellent scenery!
Thank you for sharing this adventure with us!
Just discovered your channel with the Mt St Helen's Spirit Lake floating log video. Your positive attitude is contagious, I love it!!!! You could be mopping the floor and I would still watch, just to get my positive fix for the day-
These really are satisfying videos to watch!
The enthusiasm is contagious.
My Friend you are an instructor every time I tune in you teach me something. Thank you
My only criticism of this fascinating channel is: Is it possible to tell us where you are? I spend time in northern New England and would love to know if you're in Maine or western Massachusetts etc.
Edit: You can see the ice chunks coming out the other side! Cool!
