Also, he seems to love whirlpools. He knows he can't see whirlpools unless he solves a problem they represent. So he solves the problems that let him see whirlpools.

@Thomas L I've had some arsehole drive through the deepest part of a flooded road full speed to deliberately drown my car. My car was a Hyundai with all the electronics and he had a 4 wheel drive and thought it was so funny. I certainly didn't and I'm still peeved off because he could have just killed my car.
@Thomas L Yeah same thought. My dad used to drive a Subaru through water higher than that near our house. It was low to the ground but had 4WD so it handled it better than a 2WD but he said you had to should never stop and try never to slow down but keep the same pace. Just in the passenger seat, I could feel the pressure from when the water reached the bumper and then when it let go. It also splashed a lot. I also walked the sidewalk on that road in a few floods and was splashed. It sucked but I understood it. Most people aren't doing it on purpose in those conditions. People splashing on purpose are usually when it finishes raining and there's a puddle somewhere. You can hear them rev up and if facing them see them veer over to hit it on purpose.

It could be the elderly, children, someone with pets, etc.
@@jarvindriftwood I'm not entirely sure he's correct with his 'never slow down' advice, because most driving instructions I've seen concerning waterlogged roads is 1. avoid if possible 2. slow down if you have to go through.

If you slow down, the water can clog your engine and cause your engine to lock up (flooding the engine). The never slow down advice is actually good advice.

If this guy truly does this because he enjoys the whirlpool payoffs, I wouldn't be surprised if this could be attributed to Asperger's Syndrome. One of the main characteristics of A.S. is having special interests with a passion. I myself am diagnosed with a mild case of A.S. and certainly know a bit about going down rabbit holes to learn almost everything about something specific, which to most people would feel like a waste of time. My current "rabbit hole" is trying to get to know all there is to know about electric cars - their history, construction, battery tech, etc. And while most people desire social connections, I feel most at ease when I'm alone and try to obtain information on my interests... which is hard for most people to understand.
They’re driving way too fast through that. If it hits the air intake, they could destroy the engine. Living in Ireland where it never stops raining, this is a common way to write your car off.
@@queenv3350 Must be a tad different on your side of Houston. Over here, seems like random dips will never miss an opportunity to blast their Audi right down Westheimer- flooded or not.
They think that cars get stuck in water because the vehicle loses traction by floating up - not because the engine is flooded long before the vehicle turns into a boat. "Maybe if if I go fast I will float to the other side with the momentum!" ⛵ The majority of people driving cars don't understand that internal combustion engines need *air* just as much as *fuel* to simply run. Same sort of folks who can't set up a campfire because they completely forget about air intake. A car is a living machine: it needs to breath. Given how difficult it is to get people to at least use turn signals, I wouldn't hold my breath regarding a basic understand of what makes their cars go _vroom._
People love to be a-holes, when it rains and i walk to the store there is always someone who speeds up in a puddle to splash me. But then there's also nice people who slow down or avoid the puddle. Doesn't matter if you're working or just enjoying life there will always be someone trying to ruin it for you. Can't let them though
@Sugar Well it is fun if the one I am splashing are my friends but when it comes to strangers especially a hard worker that’s helping you out nah bro that’s disgusting and if U think that’s fun ur a douche and I have nothing more to say to u
@@fireballsensei9287I’m sure most of those were because they weren’t sure they we going to make it or just wondering wtf the guy was doing… none of them were slowing for his safety.
@@mwwhited If they were "not slowing down because they weren't sure they'd make it," they're quite possibly clueless. Not only do they risk sucking too much water into the car's air intake and blowing up their car engine, they also could lose control of their car and wreck into a tree, besides possibly hitting a pedestrian and killing him.
Chaudhry Azeem The last thing you wanna do is race into a deep puddle. 😂 You can’t always tell how deep it is and there could be debris or potholes caused by the flood. Plus the faster you go into the puddle the more water your going to have splashing your engine and with modern cars becoming more technical you’re risking some damage to your engine or electrical parts.
If I lived in the same water table I would lol.. this guy probably lives in the Midwest, south or eat coast where the water table is mostly flat.. where I live in Colorado if we get this kind of rain you can’t stop it our rivers will flood the shit out of our cities
@@aideh police have better things to do than to do this police jobs is not to pick up communities like clean roads rivers and forests that's more of the fire departments job than the police
@@thedondee I completely understand, however, this guy didn’t sign up for it either. He’s just a good guy that decided to do it. Cops signed up to keep the community safe. I think this falls in line with that don’t you? If they have extra time on their hands, it wouldn’t hurt. I personally think community service should be mandatory for cops but not all share that sentiment
You just saved thousands of dollars of the car owners as they saved a trip to the garage for removing water from the car engine. Though they don't care about you, you are doing fantastic job. Take care. Edit: Thanks for the likes. I didn't knew so much guys think the same. 👍
This man is a legend. Exactly 0% of other people wouldn't do anything like this, yet this man goes out in the pouring rain just to fix the city's road. He should live tax-free just for the amount of work he does for the city.
Needs proper budgeting. Spending most in military and to save taxes for the rich instead of infrastructure wasn't the best idea over the last 5 years :D
@@sofftskies3769 lmao I misconstrued what the guy said, when I first read it I thought he meant the poles should be on the drain (like directly on the drain in the the road) , but he meant like on the sidewalk
Odds are, no one knew he'd be there and that's why they didn't slow down. It's not like there's flashing lights or cones to alert anyone to his presence before they're right on top of him.
@@iFixJunk Just means people are driving without paying attention to their surroundings, especially due hazardous weather conditions (flooding). They don't have much of any excuse for not noticing someone in a bright orange shirt (similar to safety vest colors). I can understand some people with visual acuity issues, but again, not driving safely when driving as speeds higher than conditions warrant.
Marv I can get on board with that, but he did have a very bright Orange shirt on and the water was deep. Even without seeing him they should have slowed down.
I got so upset when the driver’s were splashing you, and when the cars went on the sidewalk. How inconsiderate and dangerous. But triple A+ for doing some honest work, that’s a subscription.
Bit of an overreaction about driving on the sidewalk...they should go way slower while doing so though..not many pedestrians..having a car stall out in the pool is a more likely scenario until they close the road or you get someone like this guy..great neighbor..
Fast Internet hmm seams like your just hunting for clout. Search through videos and find someone to start an argument with. Wonder how many people have yelled at the man to “get out the road” etc while he’s doing them a service. Maybe you should go find something else to do with your life. Like stop being an asshole?
I did this same thing once, in the dark in my neighborhood. Stayed out for about an hour getting all the drains unclogged, and I swear, being out in the rain and doing that was such a rewarding feeling.
It's a rush to be helpful sometimes. We had a severe windstorm that dumped a bunch of trees and a bunch of us neighborhood kids were able to get out with walkie talkies and directed traffic for over an hour. Small town but a busy weekend with a ton of traffic. We were all pretty jazzed afterward.
@@realityhug It's possible to get swept away in a flood that's only 2 ft. In fact, a good chunk of deaths that occur from flooding are due to people losing control of their cars at intersections.
It’s amazing how simple us humans are at being entertained I find this fascinating and I’m drawn in. So satisfying seeing the road go from flooded to almost no water at all
This guy needs some public reward , and city council need to fund him if he had the men and the rakes think what he could do , and put him in charge of drainage for American but keep him clear of the hover dam
I love the cars that were being dicks and *Getting water on this guy whose literally probably saving your battery and engines.* and the ones who were like at 30 mph not trying to get close to him, not trying to soak his clothes worse, *have my respect at the max.*

@@michaelmullin3585 not all municiple workers are union, especially in the south. It's more likely that they had projects, work orders, or emergency tickets already going on, or maybe it's the weekend, and by the time they could get out there the water would no longer be at a dangerous level.
@WageSlaving2TheTop ! Skilled workers can advocate their rights these days by simply threatening to leave the company for another, or better yet starting their own similar business. We don’t need unions like we used to, not saying they’re in and of themselves a bad thing.

I often volunteer to clean up my community, picking up litter in my free time. You have no idea how many assholes there are in every community. Willingly throwing garbage out of cars because they know someone else will clean it. Only problem is garbage attracts more garbage so there comes a point when no one is willing to clean it anymore and their community looks like a third world country.
@Anthony Lopez I’m pretty sure you’ve watched the video and saw many cars going at a reasonable speed to not splash the guy. They didn’t have to speed out like there was a tsunami chasing them.
This is a public service! - People complain about him recording. You know what? This guy is educating people, and preventing serious flooding. - Good for him. Maybe we should know about good deeds!?
I thought this guy worked for the city at first . Then I realized he was just doing everyone a favor . Never met anyone like that in my life , what a special guy .
I keep coming back to this video. I just love watching a road that's complete under water at first getting an unclogging of storm drains and then a few minutes later it's nothing more but a wet road.
You should be the superintendent of youtube internationally. You not only lack toxicity but very good at giving positive comments and should be a leader!
He may be great at his job but not good at leading other people: he should be given a job and a raise for his expertise, but not necessarily be guiding others, which is among the reasons why so many good workers rise to positions they aren't fit for. The Peter Principle: people in a hierarchy tend to rise to their "level of incompetence".
Mr Knarf He has a wealth of knowledge. If he may not be a suitable leader, but certainly a champion within the learning and development of others who are open and willing to learn. It looks simple how he unclogs those drains but the knowledge about the landscape and why the water was rising is great. Many may think it’s just some common theory but clearly no one in the city cared to fixed it. It’s not about how much you know but how you apply it!
The town should give you an award for clearing up the roads when it rains. You should wear some type of neon safety vest & maybe get some fishing waders so people take care when you're cleaning the sewers & grates! Thanks for caring about your town!!!

He said "just like last year". This isn't just a hobby, this is his passion.
Maybe he just likes whirlpools.
Whirlpools are amazing.
And it's addly satisfying to watch a whirlpool
Unpopular opinion in the comment section: maybe he likes helping people
If this guy truly does this because he enjoys the whirlpool payoffs, I wouldn't be surprised if this could be attributed to Asperger's Syndrome. One of the main characteristics of A.S. is having special interests with a passion.
I myself am diagnosed with a mild case of A.S. and certainly know a bit about going down rabbit holes to learn almost everything about something specific, which to most people would feel like a waste of time. My current "rabbit hole" is trying to get to know all there is to know about electric cars - their history, construction, battery tech, etc.
And while most people desire social connections, I feel most at ease when I'm alone and try to obtain information on my interests... which is hard for most people to understand.

They’re driving way too fast through that. If it hits the air intake, they could destroy the engine. Living in Ireland where it never stops raining, this is a common way to write your car off.
I was thinking the same thing. Here in Houston most of us don't dare drive through water like that..so reckless
@@queenv3350 Must be a tad different on your side of Houston. Over here, seems like random dips will never miss an opportunity to blast their Audi right down Westheimer- flooded or not.
They think that cars get stuck in water because the vehicle loses traction by floating up - not because the engine is flooded long before the vehicle turns into a boat.
"Maybe if if I go fast I will float to the other side with the momentum!" ⛵
The majority of people driving cars don't understand that internal combustion engines need *air* just as much as *fuel* to simply run. Same sort of folks who can't set up a campfire because they completely forget about air intake. A car is a living machine: it needs to breath.
Given how difficult it is to get people to at least use turn signals, I wouldn't hold my breath regarding a basic understand of what makes their cars go _vroom._
@@Vistresian1941 They’re Audi drivers. I’m assuming that means the same thing in Texas as it means in Ireland (a sizeable proportion are A-holes).

@Sugar so you are saying it's funny being a piece of shit that doesn't care about the others? Even when they're working also for YOUR car?
People love to be a-holes, when it rains and i walk to the store there is always someone who speeds up in a puddle to splash me. But then there's also nice people who slow down or avoid the puddle. Doesn't matter if you're working or just enjoying life there will always be someone trying to ruin it for you. Can't let them though

@@mwwhited If they were "not slowing down because they weren't sure they'd make it," they're quite possibly clueless. Not only do they risk sucking too much water into the car's air intake and blowing up their car engine, they also could lose control of their car and wreck into a tree, besides possibly hitting a pedestrian and killing him.
14:37 - "When I did this LAST YEAR". Wait... You telling me that he did this BEFORE?! AND IT WAS WORSE?! Give this man a medal🏅. You earned it man.
Yeah the field behind the sidewalk was flooded and the sidewalk grates were clogged too.
And there's a vid for that 1 too. It's like 25 minutes long.
People who were driving fast must be blind because this guy was wearing the brightest Orange shirt I've ever seen.
They did see him,they just didn't care
Or maybe they thought it must be deep and their car could get stuck??
Chaudhry Azeem The last thing you wanna do is race into a deep puddle. 😂 You can’t always tell how deep it is and there could be debris or potholes caused by the flood. Plus the faster you go into the puddle the more water your going to have splashing your engine and with modern cars becoming more technical you’re risking some damage to your engine or electrical parts.
Ryan barth I learned that the hard way. It looked like a small puddle but turned out to be much deeper. Ruined the spark plugs
Chaudhry Azeem if you’re that kind of person then please speed up in a deep puddle so we can get you and your vehicle off the road ASAP.
I wish more people cared about their communities like this man does.
