You see the BMW in front of you slowly and cautious make it to the other side, so you decide to floor it. 👍 outstanding thinking
Didn’t even wait 30 seconds to let the wake settle 😂
“Fuck it that much higher off roading thing made it, obviously I can too”
What gets me is they don't ever seem to try and teach themselves - like you all have a computer in your pocket that can literally show you a video of proper technique.
Yeah that's what I don't understand why are people going so fast through the water don't they know that's going to Splash into the engine
Slow and steady wins the race
He thought it was his chance to overtake a faster car.
That's probably the most competently driven BMW I've ever seen at the start
probably just borrowed it for the day
CGI is getting better than ever
Probably still doesn't know what an indicator is 😂
X3 wading depth 0.5metre. But go steady no spray and bow wave.
Granny just don’t give AF 😂
😂😂Granny with her blacked out alloys and tuned exhausts, lol😅
Didn’t even flood it!
Go Granny Go
The best remedy against hydro locking is taking a little or bigger detour. Your car is not a boat.
Honestly it’s not that deep, but driving fast creates a massive bow wave. It’s incredible so few people understand the basics about engines
Yes the cars that went dead slow didn't even make a ripple. I crawl through a flood at a snails pace and the floods we get here in the Midlands are rarely over 4 inches deep. You just need to be patient.
6:25 - Beautiful technique, and it's really simple - you just drive at the same speed as the wave so it doesn't swamp the air intake
*provided the water level is below your air intake, otherwise, dinna do it.
@@LexTNeville yeah but that water was clearly not too deep with proper technique.
I am shocked at how people see it getting too deep and never seem to think they can just reverse either
Dynamic pressure plays a big part. You can't compress a fluid but you can move slowly thro it
and if you're not sure how deep it is , drive in reverse , your exhaust will blow the water out , so that it does'nt go into the air intake lol .
The first BMW crossing is what to do vs the little red Ford with what NOT to do..perfect observation
The fact that the 90 year old woman in the little red car showed us all how it’s done is brilliant 😂😂
Pension day. No stopping her. :)
Except she entered it far too quickly.
Obviously those little Seat's are great for wading, could not believe that after that fast entry into the water.
@@sbomorse My might be making a bow wave to get a clear run. These old girl`s drove army trucks in WW2. :)
Odds on she was clueless as to what was going on by the blank look on her face with her mouth open, glad she made it through though.
Driving through water really needs adding to the driving test theory and hazard perception tests.
First time ever where we get to simultaneously watch the correct way, and incorrect way, to ford high water!
I'm really impressed with that guy on his bike - he made it!
yes..but his wheel bearing are soon gone....whater and greas...no good. BUT fun. I have done it my self in a river.. and that is why I know about the wheel bearing.
@@mclaren122 That's good to know and a funny coincidence - I ordered new rear hub cone bearing parts yesterday. :D
(but for an older Fully I overhaul atm)
There’s always a BMW stuck in a flood anywhere in the UK.
Yep, that Ford had no chance,, going that fast. The Volvo was really pushing his luck too. If you can see the bow wave over the bonnet, you're likely doomed. It's actually not that deep, but you have to go SLOWLY!!!
You can hear the engine go kerplunk on the first Volvo.
I hate that driver. Such a nice, off road built xc70 and you're ruining it by not having 5 extra seconds worth of patience.
Scary when you think that people with this mentality hold a driving licence😲
@@MX-MugDriving skills are non transferable through DNA but due to lack of male driving skills, it could instead be completely replaced by the parents mother side. Which wamen are notoriously known for .
@@Y2Kvidswomen aren't very good at parking the car though that seems to be inherited because I'm still yet to meet a woman that can reverse park properly! 😂😂😂😂
yes
I am a driving license holder. Quick question, if I drove through in reverse would I be ok😊
@@ciaranbyrne62That might confuse the water .
By speeding through, these clowns are artificially making the water 2 or more times deeper than it actually is.
Shhhh don’t tell them
@@haider7866 not saying it's not entertaining. It's like a modern version of jousting or dragon slaying for idiots. An intelligence test if you like. You must be this smart to go on this ride. 🤣
Motorists really do have a "no one and nothing is going to get in my way when I'm behind the wheel" mentality 🙄
And cyclists apparently
I'm impressed by the cyclists who managed to pedal through. You'd be hoping you didn't hit a pothole.
But I guess his hubs are shot now.
@@broderbunto2305 much cheaper to regrease the bearings on a bike, than replace the engine, axles and hubs of a car. ;-)
@@JakobusVdL you really think someone who was too lazy to carry their bike through the water...would all of a sudden choose to pull apart their hubs and bottom bracket to replace the bearings? I doubt it!
@JakobusVdL have you bought Zipp wheels recently? 😂
It's fine everyone they had their mudguards on
You must surely be playing the "will they wreck their engine" game the moment you see how they enter the flood. I do!
Lol😂
The speed cracks me up.
It’s about 1ft of foot water and manages to go up the windscreen on a van
They probably close their eyes too...
Flew over this today in a small plane, flooding everywhere.
These are the type of people who light fireworks in their house assuming it will end ok...
Lol😂
Gearboxes and axles can still draw in water, by the “chill” effect causing the air inside to contract. Unless you have sealed, high-level breather tubes fitted - don’t wade…
Yup - well-known phenomenon with boat trailers. I wouldn't submerge any part of my car unless I had no other choice. The 4x4 guys with their snorkels are committed to the extra maintenance, just like boat owners. 🙂
@@joez.2794 My 27yr Defender 90 has factory breathers on gearbox, transfer case and both axles, also on aftermarket overdrive case. However the front swivel joints do not need water in the long-life internal grease. Half a wheel deep is enough, better yet if you first watch a Land Rover come through the other way…
I thought I recognised the Slash and Mountsorrel Lane. My parents grew up in Sileby so I remember many trips to my grandparents trying to get through the flooding. I'm surprised so many of the locals still haven't learnt to drive through such conditions!
Old lady in the red SEAT Mii was my favourite there, you could see the determination on her face!
how did she even make it 🤣
3:02 that's the most cluttered dash I've ever seen
america has much worse!!
When you see guy with a camera filming on the other end... How bad it can be?
Amazed that red Seat got through. But why do so many stay in lane, when it is often the deeper side???
Great lesson from the BMW, pity the Focus totally ignored it
The 110 pick up gave a master class on how to drive in deep water just enough speed to make a small wave in front to lower the water around the engine 👍
BRAVO. People will never cease to amaze me.
Awesome video as always. They are very daring to travel through. It's amazing to watch 👍😎
Daring/thick.. you say potato...
Just to remind you all newbies on the road, your car can’t be used as a boat. Even if you manage to pass through the floor of your car will be flooded and damaged
Another cracking video. Any idea how much the locals charge for towing them idiots out of the floods...?
😂😂😂😂
It’s about £375 - my uncle was one of the victims in this video unfortunately
nah they do it 4 free source: i do recoverie @@whereslp
@@whereslpcard machines at the ready ?
@@whereslpDo you know if insurance covers the damage?
Love that ratty old range rover at the end!
So many drivers think "You need to create a bow wave ahead of the car!" - Don't people know there's a big open grill at the front to let air (and water) into the engine? 🤔
A small bow wave makes the water level behind the wave lower, you have to match a slow, steady speed so its always maintained and you never get ahead of it. The first BMW gets it right for a small section in the middle, but you can see frothy water entering, which is too fast and the bow wave breaks before exiting, which is also too fast.
Slow and steady wins. Once that bow wave is over your bonnet chances are you’re screwed.
I newer new that I was addicted to watching cars go through floods
Three cars were textbook, the BMW X5 (surprisingly for a BMW driver, the Waitrose delivery driver and finally the defender. How some of the others made it is incredible, unless they broke down further down the road. The old lady peering through the wheel, god was on her side.
I’ve had a Jeep for decades and I was told early on that there is no reason to zoom through deep water. Just take your time. I think most of the passenger cars would have been fine if they didn’t zoom through effectively shoving water into the air intake.
4:00 See, the reason why this vehicle did not stall was becuase the air intake was above the waterline. This rules goes for ALL vehicles!
In oz we are told not to drive through flood water. 2 reasons. Water does not compress when it gets into the engine and two you could get washed off the road and then eaten by crocodiles.😅
First clip, perfect example of how to do it right, and a perfect example of how to do it wrong. Usually people learn from others mistakes. Take a special effort to watch someone's success and then turn your effort into a complete disaster
The BMW driver is the first one ever to cross water in a video like a boss.
Cyclists are going to wreck the bottom bracket bearings on those bikes. As well as going deeper than the wheel hubs will mean it will lead to a full bearing rebuild.
that BMW X5 driver is a pro!
At least the water was nice and clear so no danger whatsoever going off the side of the road 😂
Bad electrics and arrogant drivers with no driving ability makes it a certainty.😂
That Ford in the beginning coming in like Thunderbird 4 😂
NEWS HEADLINES ,,,, at 8;15, a BMW actually went through some water without killing it's self !!!!!! 👍🏴
No sólo es el agua que pueda entrar en la admisión. El vapor de agua que genera el colector de escape, obstruirá el elemento filtrante (papel) al mojarse. Una posible solución es actuar sobre el tirador de apertura del capot motor para que el vapor se evacúe. De lo contrario se condensará en el vano motor e irá a la admisión.
We do this in Australia after praying to the god of 4WD, quite often the road under water has washed away.
7:30
Anything for a day off 😂😂😂
The fools make our insurance premiums go up FFS
No, _driving_ into the floods is not covered. Neither when you decide to push your car off a cliff...
Why would anyone stuff their car just to go to the shops ?
Never seen a dreamer in a Beamer driving properly. Still bet the indicators don’t work though 🤣
The insurance companies are going nuts over this video. A lot claiming flood damage
6.17 , I would not even think about driving through that !!!
So there I was happily fishing & these two guys came along, one carrying & one riding a bike....
6:15 - have to congradulate the driver there, knew exactly how to drive through it
In case you wonder what this grid thing between your headlights is: this is where the AIR for the engine gets in. If you let a lot of WATER in there, it's not good for the engine!
You see the flooded road, you don't go through it...simple advise to saving thousands of pounds
TV'S crap tonight, so we'll go down the ford for entertainment and a laugh. Ric from Oz 🙍♂️ 🇭🇲 🦘
You would think councils would invest in pontoon bridges for these areas known to flood.
Nice to a landie balling out the frog car muppets
As an HGV driver, I'm amazed how many idiots are on the road!
Land Rover showing everyone how it’s done. And I lush bed at that BMW sat there whilst far cheaper cars just drive round it 😂😂
Green van got it wright slow and steady
Flooring it is the opposite of what to do unless you have a snorkel 😅 go easy, no tsunami over bonnet keep air intake above water
All drivers should see this: the Right and Wrong way to go through deep water.
That Seat Mii shoulda been toast, with the water going above the hood; suprised it didn't enter the intake.
Looking at engine bay pictues, the intake is behind the headlight and facing back, pretty hard for water to get there.
@@bavalenzuela Ah I see, so the angle plays a part, interesting. I suppose that would be down to the limited space present in the engine bay.
Go granny in seat 😂
This is the best movie ever 🙂
Slow and steady does the trick. Avoid water going into the air inlets. Well done BMW and green Sprinter van. Oh and of course the old Defenders and Range Rovers. They can handle this.
Nice film enjoyed it!
its all about the approach and speed... so many people just fly thru it like idiots lol
Toyota Land Cruiser well done good thinking and that in a car that has generous clearance
Great driving in the first Ford! 😂
Its funny ......you only see scrubbers in old land rovers whenever there is a flood or snow😂 😂😂😂😂
Yeah fast will get you there lol 😆 😊
why isnt the road(s) built higher? is there a nearby stream for drainage?
the first person knew what they were doing
The first two cars are perfect example of the right way and the moronic way 😂
The larger the pressure on that accelerator pedal the tinier the brain operating it.
Was wading in my work mitsubishi L200 the last couple of days round leicestershire (what a vehicle), the ammount of idiots I saw blatting it was insane.
Now that’s how you do it well done that x5! On the other hand that ford just twated😂
Why do people even risk driving through that water if you don't own one that is made for conditions like this?
I've a Jaaag Xk and can take on One and a half inches of flood no problem, if I drive slowly
Miss those day of deep water driving in my landrover go anywere with a snorkel on your landie
POWER!
Speed and power! 😅
When I was a kid, we’d drive through hurricane remnant flood waters to get to the beach and go surfing.
Def had water over the edge of the bonnet a few times. But we’d shut the car off when entering the water, get out, push it through, clean out the air box, then fire it back up.
We were 16
Leaving the house …..keys - check , phone - check , brain ………. …
A farmer with a team of horses on standby could make quite a few quid by the day's end.
Heres a mechanical fact the red car at 1:46 has the filterbox mounted on top of the engine with no intake channel it will end up nose diving before ut floods
2:51 Just by looking at the dash you can tell who's driving it, need I say more ?
Its funny how some people think... "I'm driving a diesel, so water can't hurt my mo-a, it don't even av sparkplugs haha".
Nice illegal plate on the Porsche, I see they are going to crack down on those now too.
8:40 like an aligator
I wonder how many electric cars are getting stuck in the floods....
Theoretically they should actually be better off. Their batteries are sealed as are the motors. No intakes, no breathers on differentials , exc.
It’s that global boiling it is !
@ 6:41 very rare UK-spec Land Cruiser V8 200-series.
