A lot of drivers don't realise there's an easy way to tell if the water is too deep - check for somebody filming a video of you driving in.
Seriously! 🤣
Or the sign showing the depth of the water is 1m!
😄
Hahaha spot that on
lol
Смотрю на эту лужу больше пол года и охреневаю от знания водятлов
Их меньше не становитсч
The electric car, floating then continuing to drive after lol
I cant believe how an adult with a driving licence would fly into a big puddle !! How thick do you need to be
Hit a few hidden one yesterday delivering in Wales, none this deep but still scary
So thick that they make planks jealous.
Well considering over 17.4 million were lead to believe their biggest enemy was their closest neighbours and largest trading partners it’s easy to understand the level of thick in England 🤡😂😂😂
Yes very true, but we must remember they are English. So they do think they know it all. It's only the rest of the world that knows the truth about them.
Some people are just born stupid.
Those who failed probably still believe they just weren't driving fast enough... 🙈🌊😀
So many think that you have to step on the gas, smh.
Push a small bow wave to stop engine water ingestion. But you do so much more damage gear box diff starter alternator. I love looking at people making fools of themselves.
Applying the weight of the vehicle in the contact area of the wheels. There must be a speed at which the water is unable to move away.
Just like aquaplaning but Jesus Christ level.
While we search for it, thanks to everyone who participates in the experiment.
the slower ones are the ones that make it past most to
@@clemens6807don't forget though the vehicles in the video you shared have very wide tires and a insane power to weight ratio and even then some of them have a hard time keeping up their speed and staying on top of the water.
Cool stuff though
Impressive towing capability from the Land Rover!
Hell yeah, I was shocked. That bin lorry must be what? 20 odd ton?
Low range gearbox
She was 25 ton. I was more worried about the strap putting my rear window through as that was only a 15 ton😅 just low range and pulled away in second here
I was looking for this comment
This is my truck page (the home zoo) is my other
5:38 kinda refreshing to see someone that actually knows what they're doing
I agree it's 100% about the bow wave.
The fact this footage exists, is proof of how far we have come as humans.
Sadly for many this move was in the opposing direction
Thanks Ben, for proving that stupidity will never die out.
you took the words right out of my mouth!
Same what i thougt when i see this.
Water and the Great Internal Combustion engine will never mix well ever!!
Why does stupidity appear to go hand in hand with the more affluent in society?
I drive a shit-box and wouldn't risk it.
Is that the difference, they got the money to go, meh whatever.
I do hope their insurance refuses to pay out.
@@eyesodd Even a dustcart driver,and a bus driver went through it and failed to reach the other side...hardly anything to do with having money or driving a shitbox....having less money doesn't make you intelligent now does it???
Kid: "I'm amazed he actually tried"
Kid has more sense than most of those drivers.
Kids really enjoying the spectacle 😂😂😂
Love the Viano bloke on the phone telling someone "i just just drove through a big puddle" 🤦🏿♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣
“I’ve just driven through a big puddle mate - the engine’s f**ked”! 😆😆🤦♂️
That driver is as thick as mince...should be fired for that reckless attempt
I was there mate. Just before this a white van went through. Merc guy just followed on. He was to busy on his phone didn't even look or check. As fast as u see him drive through is as fast as he approached down the whole road. (I was the disco 3 pulling the 25ton bin lorry out)
@@Discoveryjamie - very impressed with your disco pulling that out!
@@MrGreatplum it tackled it really well. I'll be honest I've pulled out stuck q7 new shape and it was way harder then the lorry. The driver was a good sport tho. Agency driver so hopefully the gave him more work
@@Discoveryjamieyour discovery coped well with that
It's pretty straightforward...most of them go barrelling in way too fast, creating splashback that gets into their air intake. The refuse lorry is a really good example!
If more did it like that white pick up near the end they'd get through.
A lot of people are ignorant and a tad thick!!
Yes you can’t buy common sense 😂
Scanias are the worst truck for it, the air intake box is behind the bumper, it's always been in a stupid position considering every other manufacturer puts it up behind the cab 7ft+ high.
@@nothingsurprisesmeanymoreProbably chasing improved economy figures.
Totally agree. A new scania engine with fitting will be in the region of £30,000. The driver won't care less. The driver of the old Mitsubishi at the end cares more about his vehicle.
@@nothingsurprisesmeanymore That particular Scania refuse truck has the L cab. This has an extremely low entry at the door and very good walk through across the cab. That does come at some cost when re-packaging engine components below. Even with the low air filter on other cab types you have have a high air intake, if you expect you may need to go through floods. Driving at speed like this refuse truck did would easily flood most front air intakes. One should drive in to make a wave, then ease back and drive in the trough behind the wave.
That Land Rover is a beast
Yes mate, open the door.
Best episode.
Ever.
Painful to think these people are allowed to vote.
And allowed to drive, which on a daily basis is much more worrying.
@@worldofameiso5491yeh i was thinking that - if they are stupid enough to do this makes you wonder what else they could be doing - which could end a lot worse than a flooded engine.
Or breed
not as painful to think that people think that voting makes any difference
They are all Brexit voters so fuck 'em
Thanks Bengregers, amazing to see people think you can drive fast into flood waters. Needless expensive bills.
Any insurance claims for repairs would be invalid due to the negligence of the driver.
I imagine some of these cars are totalled... crazy
Just let people have fun. Its their own expense.
Only if they had a toyota hilux !!
Wonder what explanations they’re giving to insurers?
Never ceases to amaze me how many people are still driving in the high water
So nice to see the wash on the back road from Buttsbury to Ingatestone…….I particularly enjoyed the dust cart 🤣
I’m continuously amazed that people just dive right in, without hesitation.
I love the final shot of the tow guy giving a example of how easily this creek is crossed with a bit of patience.
There's even a depth marker there, more than 500mm deep or more at times. Stupid people.
3:40 “I’ve gone through a big puddle” man describes almost 3 foot of water as a puddle 😂
I had to rewind and turn the volume up to hear him properly. A Puddle? lol Dude drove into Waterworld expecting to be fine
also "I blew up your engine mate" riughte after. so that was a borrowed van.
what an amazing friend.
Makes him soind less stupid than if he said he drove straight into a river.....
Fair play to the polite guy in the white truck for towing people out
This is just showing how vehicles are different! Very good compilation
Bedfordshire Council driver 😂 what’s a towing eye 😂😂😂😂😂
I would imagine every so called "driver" that ploughs into a ford flat-out hasn't got a clue what a towing eye is.
2:20. Brings a whole new meaning to drifting.
A heavy electric car !
And the rwd version. Just wait until the wheels get some grip.
@@Sim_V Yeah, 1,800 kg. I'm a bit surprised it was the one that seemed to float, as most of the ones that drowned would be lighter than that. Maybe because it was so well sealed it was floating off like a boat, while the ICE cars were just filling up and driving along the bottom?
I bet it’s due to the bottom being flat on most EV’s. The bottoms of an EV is shaped like a flat bottom boat.
@@foellerd Yeah, someone on the MG4 forum said "our cars are basically rafts." If the water isn't getting in (easily) from underneath, air will stay in the cabin and the car will be buoyant (at least for a bit). No rudder, unfortunately!
Someone asked MG about wading depth and they said they hadn't really looked into it, better not take it above the door sills. So I'd be interested to know if that car suffered any damage as a result of that. Water in the reduction gearbox? Damage to undertray?
Nissan Leafs are rated for 700 mm, which is 2 ft 4 in, nearly as deep as that bloody ford! Even so, don't dive in at the speed the MG4 did.
Susan doing a save in the Jimny. Top man 👌🏼
the sprinter bus was a good one, matey tries to start it and old rodney knocked to say hello🤣
This put a smile on my face!
So many drivers just don't have a clue when it comes to driving through a flood.
The same people end up in a ditch when the roads are icy.
Passing the driving test is only the start of a long learning curve which some people
never learning how to drive in adverse conditions.🤔👍
As as my instructor said to me many years back whhen I was full of it for passing 'Congratulations, your licenced to kill. Still there after decades.
My instructor gave me a long lecture before we went on the road,
His last words were, now you are in charge of a vehicle that can kill
obey my every word.
It takes years to learn the skills to drive in all conditions, sadly as this
video shows some drivers never learn.@@51WCDodge
Driving through a flood? You don't drive through a flood.
Depending on the vehicle and the depth of a flood as proved by the more sensible
drivers in the video you can drive through a flood and make it to dry land. @@gumbo7215

Was impressed that 4x4 could pull that waste lorry!
The best 4x4xfar
So was I.
You should see what it can pull when it goes out clubbing. 😉😂
That's my 4x4 Greta funburg. 25ton the lorry weighed. There was water in the brake lines too 🤯
😂😂😂😂 Oh dear, folks haven’t got a clue, have they? 😂😂😂😂
Aint that one of dem new carboats there? Its all the rage LOL
Nice seasonal gig for a bloke with tow truck and waders...😂😂
Bet the boss at Veolia would be handing out P45's for this stupidity. I would.
If he'd have gone steady no problem there's drivers and drovers
not here in this country .........almost impossable to fire somebody ........and if u do they will bring an unfair dismissal case against you , and when it goes before a judge ther always is one looser ........the employer
Totally agree 👍
@@georgedoorley5628been through a few of them and won every one, problem is 99% of employera just pay out and encourage it more.
especially if they are non white.
The "professional " bin lorry drive was unbelievable. Could easily have got through a little slower
That's why he drives a dustcart....
@@desertmandan123 Engine is said Dustcart is £30,000 Scania engines don't come cheap.
And the cost is added to our council tax bills
well, depend on where the air intake place is
Rubbish lorry and rubbish driver, a matched pair.
As an American my biggest takeaway is how calm and polite these drivers are. Seems most of my fellow Americans would be going berserk, even on the one doing the towing!
They think their vehicle will start as soon as it's pulled out of the water, the calmness will soon disappear when they get the bill for an engine rebuild lol.
@@LiamBranchIt's very likely that the engine needs to be replaced. We call this "water hammer". this breaks piston rings, connecting rods, and often pierces the cylinder liner and engine block with the connecting rod - there is no alternative replacement. I'm lucky, it's never happened to me.
Land rover and range rover ❤
Прекрасные автомобили, творение высшего разума и прекрасных рук человека
2:10 Respect to that MG, which appeared to be floating at one point, but still made it through!
I think it’s the electric model, which sounds like a potential nightmare but they are impressively well sealed and no intake to pull water into.
@@StereoFozzie Yup, Electric cars are pretty immune to water ingestion. All though, cleaning out the interior would be a pain.
@@chiranmp40 Yeah, but not so sure about the electric motors, even if it made it through here ok doesn't mean water hasn't seeped into the casing, but we shall never know!
@colinf1951 i would hope it hasn't leaked into the motors for the short time it was in there. Surely they can make something watertight.
S**t for brains
I'm impressed by that Landy's towing capability. I never would have thought it could pull a bin lorry, never mind pulling one out of water.
Cos the disco weight about a million tonnes
I fairness a lot of that was driver skill too. It's one thing having a 4X4 - another to know how to get it to do what it can do.
In Low Range a Defender will tow anything.
Some strong axles and gearbox in that.
ive seen a landrover pull an artic before
Having a service there is a golden deal, everyone there speeds up thoughtlessly
I've watched so many videos and the amount of Audi, BMW and other luxury car brands I've seen not make it through is comical, as always.
Just going through it like water wouldn't overwhelm their engines and hoping to make it to the other side. I love to see the other drivers who know what they're doing go in and make it to the otherside.
I was thinking the same. Most of the German cars seem to disintegrate at the mere sight of water. To be fair it is probably because Germany still has a car industry.
It’s because Germans know how to drive, that’s why.

I'm amazed how many people seem to think their chances of making it through are higher if they just give it the boot before hitting the water
Ye you think they know that water become a solid wall in high speeds.
I’ve never seen so many imbeciles in one place, apart from the House of Commons.
Many drivers give up right from the start, as soon as they see the water.
Gives the rest of us a good laugh..😎
" Just gone through a big puddle " understatement of the day.
I guess its like most weather related issues in our country, wrong kind of snow so on, wrong kind of water too haha.
Zum Schluß das Fahrzeug, vorbildlich! 👍🏻
Ja aber alle anderen??. 😂
Just as I was beginning to believe the world had devolved into total chaos, up popped this charming and well edited video of real people engaged in a normal activity. Thank you.
То ли еще будет
Oh the mighty Jimny pulling that helpless Audi!
3:40 I just gone through a big puddle 😂
The Toyota pick up was the best example for me..nice steady entry and exit..👍
So many bent rods...
So many knob heads
And dipsticks, but most of those appear to be the ones driving!
Yep. Hydro locked my engine once in my early 20s. Damn rod looked like a Banana! At least I was the one that had to fix my own F-up😂😂
@@dk1ey779undercarriage? What were they flying in?
@@DG-EditsMediaEtc Undercarriage works and is applicable to vehicles aswell.
The worst part is this looks like a regular flooding spot. There’s a depth gauge sign indicating how deep it is. Of course barrelling through at speed is more likely to swamp the engine anyway even if the vehicle could have passed.
Part one of the issue is the the height of the intake like you say, but even then all these clowns who go powering in, filling the engine bay with water and ramming it up the intake.
It’s like these people heard “push a bow wave” and didn’t bother to listen to how to do it.
Yes some of the drivers that eased in and avoid a big splash into the engine compartment did ok. The water in some shots wasn't deep enough to hit the intake, unless the driver hit with a big splash. Maybe drivers are afraid if they go slower, they will get stuck, hence the mistake of powering in.
Had this kind of thing today when driving, I turned around and found a different route. Unbelievably there was always an idiot tailgating me and beeping their horn before plowing through it!
Great video thank you 👍
The Hilux loved it 😂 Even without a snorkel….

Hopefully the car has a camera and his boss will check the footage 😂
"I've gone through a big puddle and blown my engine up." Looks more like a river to me!
Even with signs telling them it's 2 -3 ft deep ...... Yeah let's give it a go 😂
Cannot believe that bin lorry driver fooked up in that little amount of water

Big white sign stating its 3 foot deep as well🤣🤣🤣
Been a busy day there by looks of it
Back in the 1980s I used to drive Leyland Leopard coaches and Atlantean double-deckers through floods like this - it was so much fun 🙂 With the deckers water shot up through the pedals and wet your feet and the doors were forced open by the water pressure sending it rushing down the aisle. Nobody ever complained and thought it was a bloody good laugh.
The Leyland leopards with underslung horizontal engines were terrible in floods. you had more chance in a corsa of making the other side.
Old cars, trucks and buses stand a better chance of getting through as air intakes are higher up usually on top of the engine and alot less electronics but I still wouldn't take my classic through that
Years ago, my daughter went on a school trip and evidently the coach went through a ford where the water level was a little high. I never heard about the birds of prey or anything else, as the most exciting thing as far as the children were concerned was water coming through the doors of the coach...
6:24 that's so sick, a new land cruiser 70 in the UK on a 22 plate. Absolute baller
His a nice guy too. Tree surgeon
Do Toyota officially sell them here or do you think that is imported? How nice was that and it sounded lovely.
@@timg6613 he imported it via his friend in Australia mate. It's a "company car" for his tree surgery

"Just went through a big puddle"!!
You'd think people would be put off doing stupid things when they see about 5 people filming them, but clearly not!
They are trying to show off, I can get through it, nobody else can
Honestly it’s the massive *depth gauge* at the side of the ford showing the water’s a metre deep that I’d expect to be a bit of a warning flag.
I’m a very grumpy old man and all I can think of when I see this sort of video is that if I was there would I rather be filming peoples mistakes to be viewed back in perpetuity to their eternal embarrassment? Or would it have been the decent thing to flag drivers down and warn them. If they ignore it then that’s up to them. I think the MG4 driver felt the same.
@@smithp573majority of people stop and ask. And we’re honest and say we wouldn’t go through. Even tell them the best way to the destination as the Essex ford has 2 other ways round. All these people in the video. Don’t stop. They just keep driving. They miss the signs. The vehicles that are broken. The depth gauge on both entrances. And us standing there….is there help after that?
@@DiscoveryDanielle probably not. I do think it would cast a more positive light on the video creator if there was a disclaimer at the start that makes that clear. Then - as I said - their choice eh. And let me be the umpteenth person to say that it was very gracious of the 4x4 crew to take up towing duties. 👍🏼
The one that floats but still makes it!
It's a ev. Hence, it didn't stall it will however probably now have lots of odd incidental faults from damp connections, not to mention saturated carpets.

Hats off to the Land Rover for getting a lorry out looked easy for it.
Was fun pulling it out mate was more worried about the rope 15 ton strap pulled 25 tons uphill in my truck rated for 3.5 tons 😆
My truck page if your interested as I’ll be posting more
How many idiots can you find in a day 🤣
The people filming wave them on saying it’s fine just for content
i see plenty of driving around Rotherham , not staying in their lane round a spiral roundabout , not keeping the car straight , driving from side to side in their lane on a straight dual carriage way in town etc ( HGVs do this too ) thats even before we come to routinely dangerous driving
that 21 plate refuse truck is our hard earned tax money put to good use. What a pillock.😂😂💕
Not sure what that little 4x4 was at the beginning pulling the suv out but I liked it a lot. Perfect little run about for up in the mtns
Looked like an older model suzuki jimny with some pretty heavy modification, they've got a bit of a reputation for falling over but in reality they aren't too bad and make good little sh1tboxes for playing around in
I like how they have the bonnet up making out they're going to fix a catastrophically hydrolocked engine at the side of the road with a mobile phone and a box of tissues.
That's funny man
5:38 bow wave, correct speed. Expertly done.
good job there was someone either side of the flood to warn people it was too deep. Nice of the guys to tow them out for free, too
All these drivers just before the hit the water , there inner colin mcrae comes out , if in dought flat out 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that feista was the best 🤣🤣🤣
Impressed by the MG4 - it was floating but was driving out of the water like it was nothing
amazed it made it but its all about if that water got anywhere it shouldn't and causes problems in the future
Like that Tesla in Scotland the other week the owner swears blind he didn't drive through any deep water
Electric cars do really well don't they !
Electric cars have motors that are sealed and don’t need an air intake to run. All these numpties getting stuck have petrol/diesel cars and drive in too fast causing water in the engine. Water doesn’t burn!
@@silverghini2629doesn’t compress either😂
It’ll be stinking of mould in a few months.
What the hell?? Even the bin man lost his mind and went full ramming speed.

Rule #1 - Keep the bow wave below the hoodline i.e. keep water from entering the air intake. The white F-Pace at 9m30s and the white Mitsubishi at 9m55s do it right.

@@markmoran916.more like spastic sense 😂
They probably don't know what an air intake is. You would think they would have some idea that submerging your engine bay in water is not a good idea...
@@russellcr0wSadly true for many people. Vehicle design isn’t so great either though. Aftermarket ‘cold air’ intakes have the option of a ‘fail-safe’ device that breaks the suction if water starts being pulled up through the low-mounted intake. This is next-level ignorance here though.
Or spot someone filming. God bless the stupid.
