    In this episode we explore a water park that was left abandoned in China. At first, it seemed like a perfectly good water park was left behind, but we soon realized why it closed - it was sinking!

    My theory:
    I think that either the ground is sinking, or there was a earthquake that caused this mess. It would be too much to repair: to make sure the slides are stable, fix the cracked ground and the worst part, the water pipes underground that was in all likelihood nothing you can fix. It's too mch things to fix and then, the water park was abandoned.

      @dilo19000 Před 3 lety +46

      If the area was build on an aquifer then this could definitely be sinking as water is drawn up from the ground. you can get results like this. Could have also just been some very unstable land for such a construction, though.

      @@dilo19000 I think the park was hastily slapped together without any regard for the foundation. It does happen. Even in the US, sometimes massive structures have problems like this when people don't stop to make sure the ground won't sink or shift. Now Dubai doesn't seem to have issues on its manmade islands because the government actually listened to the engineers. They were firmly warned that unless work was halted to dump more soil and sand to strengthen the foundation, the first island would sink within a year. This pushed construction back a few months but the government agreed to it. Ironically, the economic fallout led to people cancelling their lease agreements and the islands are barely inhabited. I'm surprised they decided to build The World Islands because I don't see how it can succeed if the first three islands aren't even fully occupied...

    For anyone curious, this park was opened in July 2014 and closed by October 31st 2015. The park cost 3.18 million yuan to construct, but the owner only payed 1.54 million yuan. This obviously lead to legal issues, and it turned out the owner participated in other sketchy practices like failing to list his assets such as his house. It's a shame this all went down because it looked like a really nice park otherwise! I got this info from an article commented on r/submechanophobia, on a post about the Dolphin Bay Dream Water Park in China.

    If you guys ever go to a water park again, I would recommend taking some high quality rope. That way, you can hook it around an anchoring point so if worst comes to worst and the slide is slippery and blocked at the bottom for whatever reason, you can use that to help with climbing back up. Kinda like reverse abseiling.

    Looking at it from an engineers perspective and I know nothing of the area. It looks like the ground shifted and became water bound. Notice how the structures themselves are all tilted "I'd call it to one side" on an angle of around3-5% look at the Symmetry of the full scope of things. Engineers are well informed (Even in Chinese culture) to build things according to the environment. The ground shifted and the soil became like soft sand and than sunk. I'm thinking earthquake or mismanagement of construction (Quite possibly, Not defiantly) for the fact that if you look below and the farmers have water. The construction was botched causing the hillside to buildup and soak the ground acting as a dam under the park. I would Imagine and I still like I said before have never been there but I would haul the whole park elsewhere if I was the one rebuilding it. Everything was hauled there and can be re-hauled:)
    1. First off you need to consider hydrodynamics. Water falls through gravity and will flow to unless directed.
    2. The whole park unless connected to a solid stone like granite is going to crash eventually due to rain fall and mud/granular slides.
    3. It's a beautiful view but rain in the region was not thought about obviously.
    4. If it were me I would have put drainage before ever starting construction and thought about loads on the existing structure. The load could have been deep struct mounts for buildings and not so much at the top that require large foundations.
    5. You have to consider the farmers below as well, Generations of people probably farmed there and for them to leave is a huge NO!!!.
    (Factoring it all in) Who was the Idiot that decided to put a water park on top of a landslide area?

    The last building you went to actually is the office building+employee dorm. They need a lot of employees that hired from outside the city and those dorm are provided for them to stay. A lot of Chinese companies do that, so those workers can save up some money when working there before go back to their hometown.

    The saddest part about these places is the indoor pot plants that are just left behind (22:22.)
    You know you are leaving; you know without someone being there to water the plants means they will wilt and die. Why doesn't someone just liberate them as they leave and put the pots/trees/small shrubs outside, so they at least have a chance to live with rain and sunshine.

      Also Chinese people have no money for recreation like this. If they do have the money they don't spend it on this kind of stuff which is why it often boggles me as to why they are built. As in all countries many developers have grandiose ideas that don't really benefit anyone at all. Built and discarded. This was an amazing park but I don't think it was used.

Xue Mokai failed to pursue the multi-party claim, angrily, he took the Dolphin Bay Company to court.

The videos are still good, but it's really BS how they pretend like every excursion is some off-the-books stealth mission. The worst example might be their abandoned nuclear facility video, literally pretending to run away from guards at one point.

    Really nice video and I like the fact it is not clickbait and overdramatic like other "abandoned places" videos. Just an idea... I think it would be really interesting if you could find old videos of the places you explore. Back when the water park for instance was lively and full of people.

    3 years late and it might have been mentioned somewhere in the comments, but the thing that looked like a shrine at about 22:55 looks to be a representation of Guan Yu. He was a very famous General who was born somewhere around the year 160 or so. Tales claim that he was so deadly on the battlefield commanding soldiers and with his glaive, that he was later deified in the 500s as a God of War. He is either in or referenced in several games like Smite, Dynasty Warriors, Hades, Total War, For Honor, and more.

    The reason for the ground sinking and the building collapsing slowly is improper ground compaction during the initial earthmoving of the project. you can only compact the top 6" of soil, so when there's major earthworks, building back up needs to be done slowly or this is what happens. all the towers and things with foundation are sitting on original ground or stone, and as all the fill settles, it's leaving those structures on stilts.

      First off, ALL the "staff" likely lived there. This is why there were bunks. This is China after all. The country where a lot of companies house, feed, and put up suicide nets for their "employees". Secondly, you're not any safer in a NEW Chinese building. Look up Ghost Cities of China. They built massive complexes of apartment towers, and then a year or 2 later the towers fall down with everyone inside them still.
      It's a result of the downside of intellectual theft. China makes a lot of the facade that home builders around the world use, but they have never interacted with how the structures are made. So they make the structures LOOK like they would anywhere else in the world, but the core of a large percent of the buildings in China won't last 2 years.

    This place isn't some urbex hotspot in China, and we were actually the first group explored the place, probably because it's too far away from all these urbex hotspots. It took us 5 hours round trip to get there (train+taxi), but you know what? Originally we planned to spend 10 hours round trip just to visit this place lol. The park went bankrupt in 2017 and auctioned ~$12 million US in 2018, although they spent over $60 million US at the first place. We got there in Oct 2019 but there was no sign of repurposing or re-developing obviously... and btw, that snake slide is my favourite waterslide ever, including active ones ❤️

    The red tubes sticking out of the ground with chrome spinning things on could be a vent for underground trapped gas.
