GoPro video down 300 foot TX well.

This is a journey down 300 feet in a TX water well with a GoPro 9 Black.

[@mariofilippi3539]

Never saw the bottom of a well before so thanks for your video.

[@GhostOfJulesVerne]

"The Texans dug too greedily and too deep, but the Balrog couldn't fit through the well bore, so everything turned out okay."

[@atheistconservative6211]

"And they call it a mine...a MINE!"

[@bryanciacco4181]

Crazy that there's just ground water and MASSIVE underground caves under us everywhere at all times

[@dtimm612]

Typically karst areas only, otherwise we drill to underground aquifers like porous bedrock past confining layers that hold water. Most are not underground caves but layers of porous substrate like sand and gravels, bedrock fractures

[@NR.gamer241]

Cave update happened billion year's ago

Casing is broke about 100-150' down. It will let grout, sediment, contaminated water through..its at the 2 min mark in the vid

[@anonymous-sus406]

Imagine forgetting to hit record

[@Rihardololz]

if he had live feed above he could go further in.

[@Preview43]

Reminds me of that scene in Bill & Ted where they're falling to Hell but it takes so long they start playing 20 questions on the way down.

[@mam362]

darn lucky that all that bouncing around didn't take the camera off

[@JRM1371]

That was pretty cool. Was really interesting to see the natural stone formations after the casing ended.

[@broGabiza]

This well is mighty deep 😮. Thanks for the video.

[@scottpeters1142]

That was surprisingly rewarding to watch.. very cool.

[@Cirav]

You are not supposed to mine straight down. Did minecraft teach us nothing!

[@ayansingh6228]

😅😅 ya but there are no lava and empty space 😅

[@TouchingClothProd]

You know that scene in the Lord of the Rings, when Gandalf and the Balrog are falling and falling to the subterranean sea in the depths of Khazad-dûm?

[@kuraito1346]

Deep hole. Also the water was so clear down there.

[@lilnightmare7846]

So much effort it too this great job!!

[@dramaface]

Well, that was amazing

[@Bluetongue.]

It's a bore not a well...a very dry bore, that aquifer is depleted.

[@aaronparker7648]

Who else got claustrophobia watching this video ???

[@apolonioromero4951]

I did. It got pretty scary mid way through.

[@36misia954]

Ja

[@kuldeepmeena4809]

Best effort made, great video

[@Bowhunters6go8xz6x]

Well casing is busted about 3/4 of the way down, needs either an inner sleeve or a new drilled well.

[@BOOBRASTA]

amazingo! there's couple of cave! sick

[@pauljs75]

I think it'd be neat if somebody did a bore exploration video like this only to find small critters living in some water-filled void. It would be an opportunity for doing some science at that point. (If things could live off of deep ocean vents, then why not some other mineral consuming bacteria?)

[@lalaithan]

There's a water-resistant balrog down there.

[@VikasSharma-zn5kl]

Thanks man it gives goosebumps

[@troybest4493]

At 2:20, how the hell is a plant growing down there???

[@subhrojeetdas3288]

Looks like a green tape

[@HB-01]

The second half of this video felt like being chased by a creeping darkness

[@paddlethewaterstx]

Do you have a pic of how you fastened your camera to the downhole rig? I’d like to do the same for my old well, but don’t want to risk losing my camera.

[@petercoffin6251]

PVC casing? And it appears badly ruptured. Well casings in the NE are typically steel and about 50’ long. 100’ if you have a well driller who isn’t a gambler. And an aquifer that low would be a sign to move. Cool video tho.

[@dalesmth1]

This is likely in the hill country, given that it’s drilled into limestone. And I’ve worked on some wells that were 700 feet deep.

[@thedocisin3204]

I live in the NE and mine is 450' steel casing. Holds about 600 gallons.

[@shesees432]

Exactly what I was thinking.

[@weeardguy]

I'm trying to figure out the insane pump you need to get the water up this high, or am I missing something here? (drilling wells isn't very common in The Netherlands, where I'm from, though they used to be more common in rurar areas back in the days)

[@SilvaDreams]

​@@weeardguyNot that isane of a pump is needed. We had to re-drill a well down to 300ft in North Carolina (The original was really shallow and ran low up in the summer). It was only a 3 or 5HP motor and for consistancy in water preassure you just have a preasure tank.

[@Joebus100]

What's the green thing at 3:19 ? I'm assuming debris from up top or a piece of the casing.

[@apolonioromero4951]

Upon first glance, I thought it was a piece of plastic until I looked up what jade is.

[@apolonioromero4951]

​@@blackout7028 That's makes sense.

[@fishonkayakadventure]

it was a piece of tape

[@ericcomendant7150]

Liked it allot, what well pump have to go through 😮, I would have stopped and checked that green blockage on pvc 6”

[@SF-ku2hp]

I do this but with a 20k borehole camera but looking into coal mines for foundation design

[@blakekibler9374]

After drilling wells my whole life idk why I never thought to do this im gonna start doing it on every hole

[@TheLightningStalker]

It looks like there's been some tectonic movement. Are you going to try to salvage it?

[@kennethjohnson4280]

No looks like the aquifer is down. It may be time to drill another well.

[@inkedtoo1097]

I'm too claustrophobic for this shit

[@Kill-Dozer]

@@inkedtoo1097 i'm with ya started sweating watching this

[@MeZpatriot5O]

That pipe has seen better days. On another completely unrelated note, youtube algorithm strikes again!

[@Finch747]

2:00 bro hit a leaf...

[@mojavegold-]

2:20. Looks more like a piece of green plastic scrap.

How can you tell it's emerald? Genuinely curious

[@questionminecrafter]

Looks nothing like a Minecraft emerald, how could you tell

[@Bowhunters6go8xz6x]

Nope !

[@adityajha6115]

All Well that Ends Well😵‍💫

[@Rem1061]

Whoever drilled that well ought to be sued. 10-20 feet with no pipe? No gravel? You can see where the foot has been sitting stuck in the clay.

[@KarmeshMadhavi]

I have never seen this much deep dry.😀 guys fill rain water in monsoon.

[@Jumper777-k3f]

Well, glad I watched.

[@nigel900]

all that dry filterpack. Mined aquifer or seasonal variation? Pump test time? The slots look as though cut with a circular saw as often done.

[@jimmychong-q5m]

and this is why my former landlord told me not to drink out of the tap it was well water, that shit stunk and gave me heartburn. i thought wells were clean

[@MrTommyboy68]

If you live in an area with a lot of fracking, I would not advise to drink well water either.

[@SilvaDreams]

Depends on where you live on the water quality of the well. I have a great aunt and uncle who their well water is likely like where you lived and had high sulfer content. Smelled like rotten eggs if you didn't filter it. My mother's well in North Carolina was a 300fter and that water was great, that red clay was a damn good filter and it came out cold and refreshing.

[@mass2048]

All's well that ends well

There are a lot of caves in this area.

​@@andywende4189 How big? 100s of miles of underground caves with its vast network that can make a person lost easily.

[@Extman]

Pretty well

[@MrTommyboy68]

I'll bet it caused a moment or two of consternation every time the drill dropped into one of those smaller "caves" and dropped a foot or two.😕☹😮😮😮

[@NorthernHybrid]

Very well...............

well done man

U ever find fish or things in these aquafurs

300 feet, most wells in my area are at 400.

[@BIGMIKESKNUTTS]

Well done

[@Watermelon_Warlord]

This is why "can't find the hole" jokes exist

[@reni9870]

How was the pipe installed?

[@lvlotives]

It’s like Downwell game😅

[@blazeskb]

I’m a little confused, I thought the pvc was suppose to be submerged in the water. How do you guide the pump to the water?

[@vintagethrifter2114]

Normally it is. This well has a low water level, maybe from drought.

[@kennethjohnson4280]

No normally, the PVC extends to stable rock. In my area casing typically is only the first 60-80ft of a 200-foot well. Below that, the bedrock will be fractured, allowing water to flow. This well appears to be drilled down into an aquifer that looks like it has been pumped dry. This is not what a well typically looks like inside. At least in my area. The purpose of casing and casing grout is to keep surface water out of the borehole in order to prevent chemicals and pathogens from the surface groundwater from entering the well. Casting is also used to keep soft layers from collapsing into the borehole, but casing is expensive so it typically stops at stable rock.

[@boxerdiesel]

Si tratta di un pozzo artesiano ad uso domestico?

[@gonik8gonik851]

Amazing caves😂

[@TheDAVE858]

good luck getting a pump down that thing.

[@shivampatel3342]

How does the water even comes from this much deep down well.

[@SilvaDreams]

A small 5HP electric motor most likely.

[@anthonywawire]

I can see Gold there take me in😮

3:23 i want to sit and live there.

[@muhammadhazrie5728]

How to take the water?

[@RabblerouserGT]

You dangle a pump down there, with 300 feet worth of wiring to power it and 300 feet worth of piping to pipe the water back up. However, it looks like the well here has experienced some tectonic movement and you'd probably have some trouble getting a new pump in. This well is probably... no good.
