Britain's most entertaining IQ test.
I feel I lose brain cells by taking part by watching the videos.
🤣🤣🤣
It's a game ?
No common sense no matter how many dollars they have.
These videos while interesting are highly depressing. How could people be so unwilling to think before they act? The risk of damaging their vehicles at night is not worth the heartache. The mask is off regarding the myth about intelligence in Great Britain.
None of them ever seem disappointed. Almost like they drove in because they want some drama in their life. It would be interesting to research the psychology behind this.
It's just idiots trying to save face! They're crying inside I bet! Hahaha
I agree with the other comment: it's public embarrassment, feeling stupid, trying to make light of it etc. I bet plenty want to burst into tears & drown themselves when they discover the bill for repair!
For overpriced euro junk (Audi/BMW/Merc) is almost the perfect insurance scam. The write off is almost certain if it A) sits in water B) loses an unreliable and poorly engineered engine full of superfluous crap that has to be removed, pushing up the labour costs and writing it off.
@@N4CR5 Lots of insurances dont cover it if you drive in intentionally into the water.
@@N4CR5 All on PCP no doubt..
"I've wrote one off already in here".
Well done mate, you're a genius.
It's like he does it for fun.
have written . . .
@@zamboangadelnortebtr4113 you're fun at parties aren't ya mate?
The water doesn't look that deep , it only comes half way up that duck !!!!😂😂 F
It was the wet part of the ducks, at 35 miles per hour entry into the WET WATER ,...that was the electrically EVIL part of DUMB. I am an engineering electronics guy from the US Navy. WE keep all our electronics up out of WATER....dry. It works on our torpedo's too. send note to Tesla / check!
😅😂❤ best comment
The duck is lifted on 35s
Yes your probably right , and on wet tyres !!!! F
Take it slow, guys! It's surprising how many of the larger vehicles don't make it through simply because the drivers are going too fast. They have enough height clearance, but the excessive speed forces the water high enough to reach the intake
Very true! Water went in our intake at 10:50 amber engine light came on straight away had to dry the filter with a hair dryer at the local pub 🤣
Pretty sure a lot of them are driving at speed into the water to show off to the cameras.
I just wanted to splash everyone 🤣
I don't know many countries, especially not Great Britain, who don't have a section in their road code on driving through deep water. Seems these people didn't read that bit.
@@Smurphenstein You wouldn't be watching these videos if no one drove through the ford! Its called having fun!
You can call me a miserable old git all you like, but these videos are so much more tranquil and therapeutic without the screaming children in the background...
You’re right mate 😂😂😂
spot on fella
We all need some quiet time, 😆
I just had some headache tablets. Instructions said "Take 2 and keep away from children". Couldn't agree more!
Miserable old git
As a Florida resident in hurricane country i learned to seal a distributor, spark plug wires and vents for submarine driving. I had a 66 Chevy Belair wagon that could drive through any flooded road. The thing would slice though foot deep water like a swamp buggy at 35 mph throwing rooster tails 20 feet high.
Just spraying WD-40 on the distributor worked for a few days back when I had vehicles with mechanical ignition timing. Nowadays it’s all computer controlled. You still don’t want water to get into the intake or you’ll explode a cylinder or two.
These idiots are ruining engines by water being sucked onto the engine air intake.
When you see 20 broken down vehicles near a body of water, you might not want to cross
It’s crazy to me how nobody seems to understand how water fording works, faster does not equal better
they are thinking about outputting exhaust when they should be thinking about air intake
It does if you hydroplane across like rally drivers!!
they do not understand how anything works, that is why they drive audi-because they have money to repair it
I used to live on a street that would regularly flood at the lowest spot. Every time it flooded someone would try to drive through and flood out their car. Every time.
@@makantahi3731there were like two audis. Chill. Seems like someone who drives an audi really hurt you
Funny how people are more concerned about their shoes and pants getting wet afterwards, rather than the expensive vehicle getting ruined before charging into a flooded river. 🤣🤣🤣
Insurance will most likely pay out as its a public road
@Retired Bore that's true I see your point but if your fully comp u can claim on your car when ever you want for anything. If your engine blows up and you take it to the garage you can claim and either right it off or fix it my dad many many years ago "drove through a puddle" and they paid out for a new engine
@@4331andrew u clearly got no idea how insurance works also this guy and other videos of broken engines are public. So i think what u are saying here is a stupid way to get arrested for insurance fraud.
pls stop it
@@Rastamanjungle well clearly I do 😂 and how's it insurance fraud are you thick an adjuster comes out and sees if the car is a write off. They either fix it or write it off....
@Retired Bore also at any moment Ur waiting for a tow track near the Water the Police can come and give u a ticket for driving on closed road. Then no insurance for you
Tesla said “Good Morning!” 😂😂
Yea no air needed to operate motors, though flooding battery ends pretty badly to :)
@@kosajk The battery is sealed so that ain't the issue. The issue is that the water isn't clean which can rust stuff. Make sure to thoroughly wash the car and you will be completely fine!
@lachlanB323 its not completly sealed, there are some vents for natural gases in battery
@@kosajk But it's pressurized with air so no water can get in that way. The vehicle would have to be fully submerged for minutes before water gets in that way. In that situation your car is the least of your concerns and it's more like... not dying!
Electric cars akso tend to float for longer then petrol cars
@lachlanB323 Well, that depends, i would say, although i mostly agree with your comment :)
These videos offer a bizarre spectacle of communal indifference and personal misfortune, encapsulated in moments of both humor and tragedy.
I would love to be the local mechanic in this area. This ford is like a money-printing machine!
I was thinking the same.
Think lot of these daresay get written off so it's probably scrap men rather than mechanics that do well.
And the recovery tow guys if the mechanic ain't got towing equipment
The locals look like they starred in Deliverance, so i certainly wouldn't want to be one.
Recovery service would be the one in my opinion
I don’t know why RUclips delivered these vídeos to me, here in Brazil… But now, I can’t stop watching them. Please keep recording it. Thank you
Same for me hahaha
Same for me. It’s been three days i’ve been watching this and somehow loving it.😂
I'm here in Mongolia where we do this all the time without a 2nd thought, but seeing all the 4x4 not knowing how to go through a river is beyond funny. The cars i can semi understand, but the 4x4 guys is just odd.
Its amazing how they are interested in whats under the bonnet after and not before they go into the flood.
It shows how many people have no clue about the basics of how an engine work
Driver: I thought you said it was only a couple of inches deep?
Local: Water only comes half way up our ducks.
Dave Harrison .that was a good one.
Please note: the depth gauge reads in feet, not inches!
@@tornagawn feet? inches? I thought they were cm
If you see a bunch of people standing around filming you go through a water crossing, it probably isn't the best idea to go through it lmao. Really surprised the Miata made it through unscathed
Unless you have an electric car, than nothing will happen
its england after all
Japanese car
@@maerklin29800water in your air take is an engine rebuild. “Nothing will happen” that’ll be five thousand dollars, please
@@theskyizblue2day431 electric cars do not have air intakes 😂
That duck swimming by was just insult to injury. He was definitely judging the driver.
im in favour of re-testing drivers every 5 years after watching this! lol
Nah, this is the test
The image of a delivery driver wearing a high-visibility tabard whilst his van is broken down in at least a foot of muddy water is a beautiful, succinct summary of Modern Britain.
It must not be that bad considering Worldwide Championship of Engine Hydrolocking is taking place in UK.
Your parcel is only an hour later than the delivery alert said but it's a bit wet I'm afraid 💦
Of all the things to hang your hat on about what’s wrong in Britain these days, “man wears orange vest” (which he was already wearing before he got stuck) seems an odd choice.
@@hoagy_ytfc
Agreed.
Bizarre thing to say tbh. It’s just a bloke who made a mistake doing his job. Not exactly beautiful. And hardly a summary of modern Britain.
9:23 the little mx5 miata goes through that water like a boss.
only that he lost his front licence plate
The only bit added in the UK rather than Japan @@alexandergunda8916
lol
@@kill3rbyysight i'm here
Yea mazdas hawe some high positioned intake, been plenty of times in quiet high waters and never had issue, friend lost his first honda cvr to intake at bumper level :(
Its nice to see jolly ol' England has geniuses too! 🤣
I'd love to know how well the door seals kept out the water. They're designed to keep rain out, not full submersion.
Imagine writing off a car and not learning to do it again. More money than sense. What a pillock.
Probably a company car. If i wrote off my own £40k car im certain it wouldn't happen again. And a pillock is putting it politely.
@@jposse187
Icy watt ewe did there!
That's Audi drivers for you
@@lizcarlile5170 German car drivers think they can walk on water, sad thing is their car cannot.
Some people have too much money.
First bloke ‘this is the 2nd car I’ve done, wrote one off here already’
Brains of a fresh cow pat. Thick as mince
It’d be ironic if his insurance declined the claim second time round. That looks like a £50k car
@@wintersun398more like fifTEEN grand.
... his missus didnt look too bad, I wonder if shes seen the light and moved on with the tow truck driver?
What people seem not to understand is that, their gas engines compress air, but water can not be compressed. If your air intake is low then the engine sucks in water and you will destroy your engine by bending the piston rods.
Lol @ the van quickly trying to get around the corner out of embarrassment.
Watching that smoke change from black to white at 4:10 was joyous!
Either your engine is humped or there is a new pope!🤣
Weird choice - legal number plate on the front, illegal one on the back.
mayonnaise
I'm going with the new Pope, myself!
I have seen this guy in almost all of the videos. He just wants sensation.
@@wulfrickackerman9453 He wont have a leg to stand on with the insurance claim!.....
Imagine destroying your car and being immediately met with British banter. 10/10
Oh yes, wouldn’t that be lovely😂🇦🇺
Man this is so gratifying to see who made it and who didn't. Thanks for sharing it!
Я ждал, что может сегодня кому-нибудь хватит ума задним ходом проехать эту лужу
The look of surprise on every face as their cars stop is amazing, even more amazing as like the first bloke says "I've already written off a car here!!!" Doesn't anyone ever stop, look at it and turn round rather than go through!!!
Truly cretinous
Because thinking is so yesterday. 🤣
Special people
@@metarugia3981 that made me laugh
@@samanthabell4219 🙂
Happy to see the guy in the blue landrover finally got his
He was lucky though. Definitely ingested some water and lucky he didn't hydrolock.
Tesla burns down house later that evening... LOL
u dont even know where it’s going
plus it’s electric how could it burn
Actually, EVs are 61x less likely to catch fire than internal combustion vehicles and 139x less likely to catch fire than hybrid cars.
“Fully electric vehicles pose less of a fire risk than hybrids and gas cars, according to 2021 data from the National Transportation Safety Board. There were 25 EV fires per 100,000 sales, compared with 3,475 hybrid fires and 1,530 internal-combustion engine fires per 100,000 sales, respectively.“
As long as the electrical is sealed and the car isn't buoyant (so it floats off the roadway), electric cars should go through just fine. Those heavy batteries in ECs can only help in these situations.
Loved the Tesla and the Hummer in this episode
The tesla will spontaneously catch fire now due to corrosion from the battery and wiring being wet.
@@Whisperhollow That's only true with SALT WATER. Get your facts straight. Who drives in saltwater anyway? And those fires only happen in the coastal areas after a very very strong storm surge. You make it sound like it always happens like it's a daily occurrence.
Tesla's have water sealed batteries and mile for mile far less likely to have a fire than an ice powered vehicle
Im surprised the glass didn't crack, looked like a thousand pounds of water hit it.
Thank God for the environment the government will ban and scrap every petrol and diesel car soon. Save the environment and buy electric!
RUFFORD:- An intellectual wilderness with a large population of lemmings…
Its the video i never knew i needed in my life.. thanks yt algoritim.
One guy has a channel showing people speeding over the double speed humps outside his house where some of the cars get airborne. I never knew watching people destroy their stuff would be so entertaining.
Duck saying that you are quackers lol
Ford focus @09:45 shows perfect technique, good speed, great bow wave, no water over the bonnet.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Yup, the only sensible driver of the lot.
As the grill on that Focus was fully submerged only the slow speed saved it from getting water into the air intake.
Bravo to the guys who rescued the fish. That water is really deep now!
Got to save the fish £720 at my chip shop same size rob dogs
Yes, so happy the fish got saved! I love, though worry about, seeing the ducks, too.
@@charmaccents6278 Luckily the ducks have more sense than most of the drivers
@@raftonpounder6696 yer bad poking fish terrible there a video were he puts a duck back with a shovel
@@raftonpounder6696 that blokes a menace. I saw him the other week coaxing a moorhen out the river with a spatula.
Then to top it off he thought he was John Wayne lassoing a swan like a cowboy
The duck was totally mastering it.
11:53 when you know it’s about to get serious 😂 runnnnnn b runnnn 😂 but at the end Duck 🦆 was the winner the best performance 😂
"Ive written one off in here already"
Good to see the British education system is working well
It’s amazing how the drivers laugh/smile as they realise what they’ve done. Unbelievable!
That’ll be the embarrassment!
They tend not to be the sharpest knives in the box
They don't realise the connecting rods are all bent. The pistons cannot compress water.
Ja sie lachen einfach weil sie dumm sind und sie wissen noch nicht was Sie erwartet ihn wird das Lächeln und Lachen noch vergehen ich muss lachen hier Daumen hoch
@@amcluesent in Deutschland sagt man auch er ist oder sie ist nicht die hellste Kerze auf der Torte
Lesson 1(here in Germany, at least):
If you drive through a water passage, check the depth !
Lesson 2: Drive slowly!
Everyone seemed unmindful why there are people with smartphones and cameras hanging around at the spot probably waiting for potential "fail" content.
Worse yet, none of those people stopping them from entering the water. It certainly seems like someone should be waving people off from entering the water.
@VersinKettorix 🤣🤣
🤣🤣
The fact that you got 136 parts out of this before someone even put a sign up let alone do something about this problem is astounding...
Signage has been up for years. It's a well known spot. They're doing it anyway.
@@carrbarnes I thought my road works were bad, these ones never started haha
@@carrbarneswhy do they do it
@@carrbarnes signs instead of building a bridge
Imagine being the person who writes a car off in a ford that is highly notorious for killing cars, and then driving up to a deep ford in another car and thinking “ah it’ll be okay”.🤣😂
The best way to cross this flooded Ford is to drive across in reverse, so you don't flood the engine compartment.
Very entertaining video.
Top notch delivery effort there…
I doubt the insurance covers driving wilfully into water.
It does not, largely hence why these videos are filmed, insurance evidence freely available.
"This river came out of nowhere!"
This is the second car I've done, The Audi driver says proudly.
Second time? Insurance scam comes to mind🤔
Typical Audi driver, egotistical tosser lol
This is the second car I've done, The Audi driver says proudly. - completely confirming he has absolutely no brain whatsoever! 😆
Baffling how they think that bulldozing their car into deep water that covers the bonnet is gonna work. Absolute nob choppers.
Let’s hope he actually has to pay for this one.
Even the mallard had to come down and laugh at the madness.
Love your vids great entertainment brilliant
I'm amazed that MX5 made it out and kept going
Don’t be its a japanese car
Miata is always the answer. Apparently even in the water lol 😆
JDM greatness bro.....👍👌👍
@@EZ-D-FIANTJDM 4 LYF 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
@@SenorPenor1337 yessss...👍👌👍
8:48 I love how people stand next to tow straps under tension. Have they never heard of snap-back zones?
While I agree in a stuck situation with the vehicle being in neutral and on a paved surface the chance of a strop snapping the a very very minimal
@@darrenhale6320 but this wasn’t in neutral free rolling. It was locked up
@@jonathanedwards8913 yeah I saw the Audi after I posted , my reference was to the first one. Although constant tension is far better than the “ snatch” that people use them for if you need to snatch go kinetic
There is some seriously cringe towing going on at that ford. dragging cars out by the A pillars with a tow rope through both of the front windows. Hooking the Tow rope up to the lifting hook of the engine block or just using any bit of plastic/metal as long as its not the towing eye.
@@warrmr yep bunch of tools for sure
This is aimed at the people who are as thick as mince.. Vehicles, just like humans need to breath. They breath in through the air intake, which is normally situated behind the panel at the front of the car where the bonnet catch sits. And they breath out through the exhaust pipe.
If humans breath lots of water in they drown, then you are dead.. If vehicles breath lots of water in they also drown, and your engine dies, and I don't mean just stops. They die because
your engine is wrecked.
The Hummer said, "I don't know what all the fuss is about". Merica!
5:35 Tesla does just fine.
That Model 3 handled the water like a champ.
Only months later all the electrical connections will be corroding, steel rusting, and biological stuff in the water stinking like mad. People are so dumb to risk all such problems for a 4km detour. It only takes pressing the brake and thinking for a minute before proceeding (with adjusting the satnav and turn around).
So cool 💪
Until it spontaneously combusts the next day
ye did you see how fish poped up top of the water after that? :D
EV's don't require oxygen to run and they're high voltage components are sealed, quite good in these situations
Not a Rocket scientist that one!!!!
These people definitely have brains made of minced pie unbelievable 😂😂
When you see a bunch of locals pointing a flashlight at you and filming you as you approach a flooded road it might be a good idea to make a U-turn.
And I repeat, I can't believe the MX-5 made it.
This is what happens when people don't use their brains and forget that all engines suck in the air needed for combustion from the lower part of the body, just above the edge of the bumper. Bravo for your intelligence
Surprised so many got through the flood. I love seeing the falls at the end. You could make one of those "Sleep or Relax" waterfall type videos with those. Thank you, Tom!
Wow. I've just watched the video till the end to see people fall to that realize you are talking about waterfalls 😂😂 but yes those falls are beautiful 😂
I love the way drivers give us an evening performance. A lovely night out for all sorts of people, and then a light supper and bed.
That's just the way it is...most people can be driving for 40 years but will have absolutely no clue about the air intake and how the engine will die if you flood it with water
That really wound me up when the VW driver thrown out cling film into the water! Bloody shite! Typical litterbug……😡
I'm shocked the Miata made it through , and the number of Fords that didn't dissolve.
Ah yes, all conrods need to straighten themselves is a good solid revving, as demonstrated by the clownshoe (s) in the landrover.
There’s another vid with him doing the selfsame thing on the other side. He is clearly a tool.
Clownshoe 😂
I wonder how he lost his leg
Magico Unbendy Rodsey Revvyy..... and.......... nope. 🤣
Amazing how so many people are risking such expensive vehicles for fun (especially Sprinter and trucks with someone’s cargo inside). I was at this spot 2 years ago and i didnt dare to drive into the water
IMO, the Ford at 9:57 had the best technique which is to go slow, keep the wave in front of you low and keep it from going to high and over the hood. This crossing is long enough so that momentum will not get you across as most people using momentum only got 3/4 of the way across. For a shorter crossing momentum might get you across but you will still have a higher risk of your motor ingesting the water. Unless you absolutely have to I do not recommend going across a water crossing like this as you may have some water penetration into all kinds of things like electrical connections, bearings, differentials (especially if the vent hose is low, cracked, or missing), the transmission, etc that you may not notice until you start having problems later. Most of the time these components may get splashes of water like driving in the rain but being submerged like this has much more likelihood of water penetration. A paper air filter will immediately stop air from going into the engine the moment it gets wet. Also if the water line is above the bottom of your door, your car's carpet will get wet with this dirty water and will forever smell like a stinky pond.
I love the way they go for the ignition key. Perhaps the last thing you want to touch in the situation.
Then, when it doesn't crank over, the breath a sigh of relief, thinking it's just a bad starter. That's gonna be one EXPENSIVE starter!
I'm more shocked at how the starter motor in these cars has enough torque to bend and snap piston rods
Not much of a surprise though considering it is possible to actually drive your car on the starter motor it's extremely slow mind you and you're definitely going to break something but it does work to at least crawl you out of the water if none of the boys in their rovers are there to pull you
@@silasmcgee3647 not going to work if the engine is full of water. Starter wont turn the engine over
@@oibruv it will bend the or snap the rods tho for sure
11:54 when you hear a vehicle accelerating toward the water, you know it's time to run!
These are the low milage cars for sale that someone's grandma only used to go to church with.
Everyones going too fast into it! Lmao
Love how the delivery driver just brushed a piece of plastic into the water. What a tosser
Compared to the amounts of oil, grease, coolant and other fluids that get dumped into the water by other motorists I'd consider a bit of plastic to be a minor concern. Unnecessary? Sure, but so are 95% of the crossings at this point.
To be fair to him, he's got bigger things to worry about than the environment right now 😅
I love how karma immediately floated it back into the van. Brilliant
Good to see the fish made it safely back. 🐟
The Tesla doesn't pollute. Happy affixation. Jeannine
Why anybody chances it is beyond me. “I’ll risk writing off my car and make my insurance void”.
all this to avoid an 8-mile detour, its madness, I love my car much so much to even consider going through lower water.
I love that someone finally drove all the way down the side channel, far, AND BACKWARDS FAST! My hero. Now time for a roof snorkel? That was close lol..
Video was played in reverse.
Driving tha fast backwards is what wrecked the car. He would have pushed water up into the turbo hrough the exhaust
That Audi though, so near so far lol
Dont let the insurance companies see this 😂😂
I wonder how the Audi A7 driver got to be in his mid 50s
Pure luck.🤣
great to see it nice and full again, not so nice for the drivers but great for viewers
😃🤸😀🤸😀🤸😀🤸😀
8:33 classic semi-electrified car-problem: Electric hand-brake, electrically shifted gearbox, electrified power-steering .... Gotta love Your all-mechanical seventies-car after an absolutely sobering experience like that short distance rescue-towing
I'm surprised the insurance companies haven't banned this road from their policy lol.
German Car: Bow down to my German superiority Rufford Ford!!!!
Rufford Ford: ..............
All bow to the mighty MX5
Impressive. Apart from the lost number plate!
That Tesla driver wont be feeling so cocky if that water seeps into his battery back and fucks it.
I wonder if the insurance companies refuse to pay out due to stupidity.
Knock knock!
Who's there?
Rod, Con-rod.
I am utterly amazed how many don't know how to negotiate a water hazard and in a defender as well .
Hello, love these videos. Me and my son sit and watch and play guess which car will get through. Suprising how many people attempt it. Thanks for the videos.
The Best vehicle out of All is that Toyota 4Runner pullin everyone n expensive ride's outta that little puddle !! 👍👍😎🤣
Quick tip from me... if you've flooded your engine, it's screwed anyway, so just leave the car in gear and operate the starter motor to pull you out of the water.
Those that drive through at speed an soak the pedestrians on the bridge are, IMO, guilty of careless driving. People should reasonably expect they can cross that bridge without getting soaked.
That Blue Land Rover driver must have seen how successfully the other Land Rovers have gone through deep water, and not noticed they had the snorkel kit fitted!
Thanks for that little bit at the end showing the top of the river, I always wondered wtf was up there, I just assumed it was a few drains converging, but this is much cooler
City Officials - When are they gonna fix the road problem.
Citizens - NO YOU FOOL IS ENTERTAINING!
