Beaver HQ: Well done everyone… we’ve finally managed to build a dam so big and strong that no humans will ever be able to destroy it - not even if they bring in a giant excavator! Beside that, it’s way too hot at the moment for any of them to even bother. This is our greatest victory ever and we will go down in history! Later that day, one man arrives alone and shows them what a true hero with a pure heart can achieve! Post 10 reigns supreme.
As someone who lives in Coastal Georgia, where 100+ days are normal in July and Augusst, I'm asking you to please be careful. We only do outdoor chores before 10 a.m. and after 6 p.m. when it's cooler to avoid getting heat stroke. It was a cool video, but your safety is more important than showing us cool stuff.
I work in route pest control out in Atlanta. Outside, sun all day, high temps. I leave the truck on at all times with the AC blasting to take a break in between customers. I cant even imagine how hot other workers must be without that crutch
Electrolytes ( in powder form ) in your big jug of water will help you keep from having heat stroke, Post 10. With all the sweating you’re doing, you are losing electrolytes and just drinking plain water is not enough. We as subs., are always concerned for your health and well being! Keeping you in our prayers, as always. ♾🙏👑🙏♾☺️
How you looked at that mess and thought “Maybe…” instead of “Oh, _hell_ naw!” is beyond me. I almost got heatstroke just *watching* you clear this dam. Kudos for tackling that monstrosity!
I definitely share the sentiment of wanting to use the bonfire method. My parents employ it to deal with cleared brush/limbs/vines on our property. I would be hesitant about burning in place considering the heat shock potential to the masonry, the ecological and legal concerns of burning in a waterway, and the uncontrolled nature of that fire in a drought vs controlled bonfires in normal weather.
You make tossing these branches look so graceful. Some of them looked pretty big and you tossed them like they were nothing. I can only imagine that it takes strength and a well practiced hand to make what you do look so effortless.
Firstly, watching your videos, I definitely get why you warn people not to emulate what you do; being trained and knowing how to safely and correctly do what you do is extremely important. Your video also highlight how one person can just take half an hour and start fixing a problem that would normally take the city days to even consider starting. Another great video. Hope you're staying well and safe out there!
Biggest blockage I've ever seen. Can only imagine howclong it took the beavers to do that. You tossed those branches like they were nothing. Very satisfying watching this Postie and thank you.
Love the unclogging! The thought of several decades of silt and muck build up coming loose and heading down stream was a bit unnerving. I'm glad you chose not to do it on your own. 😇 Will be anxious to see the 5-6 month checkup. I wonder if "Idiot with an Excavator" will find their way down there and muck it all up! Thanks Post!
Ooh!!! If the drought is still going, it'd be neat to see that old hydro dam you explored the inside of a couple of times. If the water is low enough, that may be possible to unclog too!
I just discovered you on RUclips couple days ago! I am amazed at what you do in clearing out all these blocked streams so they don’t flood and the flow of water is restored! Thank you for your public service!! We need more of you in all the states!! I clear out the drains on my street when we have heavy rains so the street does not flood
Very new to your channel i come across you about a month ago. Literally prefer watching you than paying for Netflix. It's just relaxing and interesting. Us British people could never cope doing what you do with that much heat. I'm looking forward to seeing you unclog blocked drains so I'm praying for rain for you. :)
Looking at this, i was thinking this would have been a great spot to do a controlled burn considering it's surrounded by concrete walls but I realized it could get out of control.
Great culvert. Amazing how much you cleared. So glad you had that drinking water. If the DOT ever decides to check it out, would an excavator even be able to reach it?
After your mention of, "This is a dirty job" half way through (16:53), I thought it would be interesting to have Mike Rowe do at least a segment of "Dirty Jobs" with you.
That one sure made the beavers work extra hard to clog! Thanks Post, glad you had water and are thoughtful about heatstroke. Stay safe and take care! ♥️👍♥️🪵♥️🦫♥️. Them beavers SOB itches! 😳🤭
The headache and dizziness isn’t from heat. It’s from breathing foul air loaded with some serious biohazards. I would seriously recommend getting your tetanus shots updated and knock off at the first sign of respiratory distress.
that debris pile actually needed an excavator, but you handled it like a boss. my guess is you removed about a ton of clog. ton, because they were waterlogged.
Post 10 - as usually on top of things culvers. Can you imagine the supervisor who's take care of this culver, when they listen to Post 10 messages. Doing their job - much !
As a long-time viewer of your videos you should know that you are the formula other drain and culvert clearers are compared to. You are the MacGyver they desire to become. Thank you for your hard work. My favorite videos are the city street drainings.
I'm not going to say where you were, but I live just about 45 minutes from where you were there. It has been ungodly hot here lately. Keep up the good work, brother!
Nice video Post10, I think that this one is an accidental ASMR video. The sound of the stream moving and the sticks hitting the ground, it's making me sleepy. Ya' know what the BEST THING about work is? I can watch it all day long!!
City and county people never do they're job the right way I've unclogged regular old storm water drains along the roads and they get clogged back up because they mow the grass the wrong way and people's trash clog it up to an sticks
Hey man keep yourself hydrated. It did not look like you were drinking the water required to be out in the heat. It is very easy to accidentally give yourself heat stroke. Not to mention the potentially dangerous conditions involving water and debris that you do this in and around. You did not even bring the water down with you when you started. You gotta plan to regularly hydrate. I hope that you took a cold shower at the end of that day.
what you need when you get to hot is Water with electrolytes. Your body loses electrolytes when you sweat or get to hot. Hot days are bad to work in but more so if you do not replenish the electrolytes.
truly amazing Post, don't let yourself get too sick over these things work before 6 AM to 10:00 am and after 7 PM nobody wants you sick with these things, and I'm quite surprised nobody has even told President Biden about you and had received some award for rescuing these little community problems that can seem little, that can grow quite large.
That area looks like a millrace to me. Any sign of an old water wheel or similar on the site? If so it would be a breastshot type positioned at the "waterfall" outlet.
Great video Post!! Hey I was watching your aquarium videos today.. You should do an update video on those! I really enjoy those as an aquarium hobbyist myself. Take care buddy! :)
I honestly only have one pleco fish left in a terrarium. A couple of my remaining fish recently died over the winter during a power outage when I was out of town since their tropical. I just don't want the responsibility at the moment so I'm not really keeping up with aquariums. Other than that I still have my pet snake and a cat. Thanks for watching
@@post.10 Snake and cat gang! I'm also out of the house for work a lot so I needed independent pets who didn't mind staying 1 or 2 days by themselves as long as fresh water/food is covered and they are perfect for that. This video is currently getting me through insomnia, thank you for all of your hard work.
@@renabee8246 I don’t mind at all! I didn’t want to be nosey like that. I thought maybe she was too big to be out and about and was with family. It was only when he mentioned his remaining pets that I had to be nosey😬

I hope you have had all your shots, what about water Bourne diseases such as weals disease. . I noticed you washed your hands and gloves in the possibly contaminated water and of course you drank your water and contaminated dirt debris, as well as been in the water in hot and humid conditions.
lmao I know exactly where you are. about 1/2 hour from me. we were running through fryeburg this weekend also. wish I had known at the time. would have asked for an autograph.
It's amazing, you do all this by hand without the use of an excavator. The size of the dam/blockage doesn't seem to phase you. You just start with the top loose stuff and work your way down. My hat is off to you. If you're not getting paid for this, you should be.
I was wondering if it was possible to use the wood you take from the culverts as fire wood?. I know that it might be time consuming, but there might be people who are in need, maybe elderly people.. Just a thought. Maybe you could let someone know when you do a big culvert like this one and they could collect it. Is that possible over there? I know that here in Australia that would be snapped up by churches etc for donating to people who can't collect their own. Especially single mums, elderly people, just people down on their luck. ?!

That's some old stonework for sure... love it❤️💎❤️
Old culverts here in northern California are 3 redwood logs stacked in a ditch
Many of these structures are from WPA Works Progress Administration.
This was one of FDR's efforts to recover from the Great Recession.

Match? That looks like a clog that's begging for some C-4.
Maybe a few kilos of tannerite?
I was thinking the civil route of using a chainsaw
I thought more about several looos of good rope around the sticks and then a good hoist around a tree on the outside

It's been a long time since you've done such a huge unclogging. I've missed that. Great video Post! 🤗💖
Whoever just watches the time lapse version of this is going to miss out on what makes your videos great!
I usually skip through a bit by using arrow keys. really helpful to speed it up a bit and easier to skip back so I dont miss something.

Gutsy debris removal, for sure! And yes, be careful out there in that heat. Heat exhaustion is no joke ( speaking from experience)
That was a SIZABLE clog! Probably the biggest I’ve seen on your channel
Looking at this, i was thinking this would have been a great spot to do a controlled burn considering it's surrounded by concrete walls but I realized it could get out of control.
I was thinking the same thing until I saw how waterlogged the wood is

In Canada you can see so many ice blockages and it is so satisfying when you unblock it but I know this is off topic
I've done a few of them in the winter time it is very fun
You should visit the Gates of Hell culverts in Clifton New Jersey.
Good call on not pushing yourself in the heat. I've felt the onset of heat exhaustion, too; not fun at all. Stay well, post 10.
This is a HUGE one! Take your time, don't want you fuzzy minded from the heat.
That culvert looks fairly shady, hopefully that helped with the heat a bit
Great job post, its good someone is picking up the slack! :-)
Wow I can’t believe you removed all that by yourself! Amazing! Thank you for another great video!
He didn't remove it all.
@@Fog66 Please give him credit, he removed all that was needed to get it flowing. A great deal of work in the extreme heat. Great job!

It's always the Best Part of his videos! How hard "We" work from however far away! Go Post!

"You never let debris flow down stream unless you know what's there" wise words
