I'm watching from the comfort of my home. It truly takes a brave soul to do what you do. It is highly appreciated. We are merely passing through this world, and it does not belong to us. It did not even belong to our ancestors. Hence, it is still here for us to appreciate and look after for the ones who are going to call us ancestors one day. Please keep your peace and appreciate God's creation.
Amen.
Hello from Australia, All that water going to waste, Don't understand why the Govt. is not
trying to increase storage for Theewaterskloof dam, i drove past that dam a few yrs. ago at the height of the CPT drought, the dam looked like a desert. Population explosion means the Govt. needs to build more or increase Dam Storage capacity.
Thank you for sharing. I appreciate this video ❤
Bastille Day - July 14. In 2017 I said I would never complain when it rained, but this is enough!
Ridiculous
Thank you very much 😊
With all due respect with all that water why not like create energy in the season when it's most needed just a thought
It's all about relative sizes here. You think that's a lot of water and energy, but it's actually fuck-all compared to what's needed.
Nice well done
Ta.
Thank you for letting me see this dam that i so long wanted to see sinc 1984 -86 when Helen Z , said when finished cape town areas with other dams in the region will never run dry, because that dam will fill them and we beat only just ,just day zero and since still payind a Levy with water enough to help other areas in South Africa?????
Water levy is silly, no new spend on water in years.
It's amazing how cape town is flooding and our stats says dam close to 100% full ... what's the purpose of the release dam if not 100% full ,tommorw we facing water restrictions and paying extra water levies on our rates and taxes
Release from Dam upsteam apparently.
It's a river before it's a dam, so when you build a dam you generally always let some water flow through to continue to sustain life downstream of the dam. Also farmers downstream need to fill their smaller dams. Hopefully that makes sense.
That dirt road was standing up to the rain very well considering the runoff going down from mountain to dam
Indeed, well spotted.
Hie Sir,are there some turbines to generate electricity
Small Hydro there l hear, the Steenbras Dam scheme has big turbines.
Remember when Cape Town had a water crisis because of Global Warming and it was going to get worse? What happened to that? I remember videos of them releasing water back then too, but I'm starting to think that crisis was man made.
Not sure what on earth you're trying to say?
@@petersutherland7482 I'm saying that South Africa's government is captured and that its managed by people overseas. That when people talk about climate change, they trying to sell you something, just like they tried to sell a pandemic vaccine for a virus that 99% survivable. Don't trust this DA/ANC collition, because the bad management of infrastructure is on purpose to keep influence of Southern Africa.
@@petersutherland7482 I'm saying don't trust the government. They are captured.
@@petersutherland7482 I'm saying South Africa is captured. Has been for a very long time and it's stuff like this that exposes the cracks.
Is man made, like moon landing, all lies. Don't believe in global warming
You are too brave climbing up up there in a Chinese car lol. Thanks for sharing though.
it can't be that bad with the warranty they give. I'm sure after 10 years it will start falling apart but they're all like that now.
hehe, pleasure.
Oh my gosh😮❤
Tx what a sight to see😮😮❤❤
Tweewaterskloof? 😅
No, Berg River Dam, Franschhoek. He said at start of video. Does this cause flooding down stream...Val de Vie ?....
@@benitadewet9344 no man, he mentioned he couldn’t get to Tweewaterskloof… it’s Theewaterskloof. Never mind…
What a waste of water… 😢
It goes downstream where there are other dams ect.
Enjoy your GWM Tank 300😂
yebo
Its not about the car 😂😂

People are happy😂
some are. some no so lucky.
Looked more like car advertisement than actually posting dam footage.
nice car hey?
Wemmershoek ?
Berg River
WHAT A SAD SAD WORLD WE LIVE IN THAT SUCH A WASTE OF WATER OCCURS IN OUR COUNTRY ____MANS GREED ???????
there's life downstream.
You couldn’t find Twee waters? Don’t think anyone ever has 😂😂😂😂 shame
Found it.
This is the land of our ancestors,more is yet to come believe you me,ksazoshuba
What do you mean by this comment?
Here we go again...
Which ancestors are you referring to? Your ancestors were migrants who came to Cape Town and found my ancestors already here. Just like today your people are migrating from the Eastern Cape and flooding the Western Cape.
Are you of Khoi or San descent? No? Sorry, not your ancestors. Wrong history/political lessons. Black Africans migrated from further up north. Of course the Xhosa language has the click sounds of the San & Khoi...
the land belongs to nobody, it exists with, or without us imo. Blessings on your day.
Rather get yourself a Land Rover Defender lol
