They Drained This 200 Year Old Canal. What They Found at the Bottom Was Incredible

[@Geezer_Gun]

I love good old-fashioned hard work, I could watch it all day! lol!

[@hiramabiff2017]

As a young man I remember having our part of the Grand Union Canal dredged near Hoxton in east London for the first time since WW2. The was 2 German 500lb UXB's found , along with hand grenades on the first couple of days alone. They closed 2 streets off and told us to keep away from our windows as a safety measure lol. I cannot believe we use to swim in that polluted dangerous canal as kids, but it's all changed now and looking absolutely stunning with so much wildlife.

[@associatedblacksheepandmisfits]

They found a 100kg uxbomb in Teddington lock in 50's 😅 much panic

[@Top10MInterestingVideos]

It would be a boring day if we didn't see these incredible moments every day

[@annesummers09]

My favorite video of yours. This was fun to watch.

[@WTU208]

If the council workers ever put down the coffee & got out of the van and just maybe actually removed all the leaves, the roads would not be flooded in the first place.

[@ticdelarue]

Pro Tip - When cleaning your dryer vent dry a load of wet laundry for about 20-25 minutes before you begin and the lint will clump together and there will not be a dusty mess to clean up.

[@J-Justice666]

Das a good idea..

Very good showing them cleaning a French canal and saying it was German, had watched it before.

[@jasonbowman6931]

u know how angry city workers get when they see u just lift the grates letting all the leaves just go into the sewer.

[@robertrickett7816]

It's not about the leaves, never has been. it's about you doing their job, remember most city workers are union

[@davidhines7592]

@@robertrickett7816 no its about you making a much harder to clear underground blockage even if it doesnt cause flooding down stream in the system.

[@adambeimel104]

the problem is not the leaves, the problem is that you get a lot of rainwater into the sewage system and make the work of the sewage plant that much harder. That's why the grate doesn't have holes for the rainwater to get in, and modern cities have seperated sewage and rainwater systems.

[@MistyChickenHB]

I can imagine! City workers probably get frustrated because it causes blockages and makes their job harder. It’s a small effort to properly dispose of leaves, but it helps keep the system running smoothly and prevents bigger problems down the line.

[@craigcorson3036]

The grate isn't there to keep leaves out. It's there to keep people and other large objects from falling in. Leaves aren't going to clog up those pipes.

[@Rochesteradventures4870]

How did they get the chain through the drainage tube to attach the tires??

[@George-oi5fe]

Stair cleaning sent a lot of poison into everyone’s environment

[@robertrickett7816]

For decades my friends gathered leaves from the woods, and dumped them in a low area in one of their fields. Today if you go there you'd never know it was a swampy low area. Twenty acres of woods, makes for a lot of leaves

2:40 150kg? That’s nothing. Or do you even know what a KG is?

[@OwGash]

i mean tbf, a lot of plastic can weight at most 5-10 grams

[@youchwb6005]

An abbreviation for a beer keg?

[@thomasfholland]

🧐 At 2:12 you’re telling me that all of those people only removed 150kg of plastic?!? That’s 330 pounds by all those people 😂😂😂

[@Calc_Ulator]

LOL I made the same comment, only 150kg?

[@SantaMike-u7r]

Santa says "Satisfaction"

[@BurtonShotton]

7:01 That filter material is on the grate to prevent debris from entering the storm sewer system. Lifting up the grate drained the parking lot faster, but also allowed every random piece of trash to enter the stormwater system.

[@mred8002]

If it’s that troublesome, why are there not means to remove that junk? Sounds like a city issue.

[@MadelineRose-ep7fj]

Couldn't stop thinking of the chemicals used cleaning those pools!😊

[@MrFDdude]

Could be vinegar and/or green soap. It's not always the brutal stuff.

[@carstenkh]

How come people think that the clothes dryer ventilation magically cleans itself????

[@dianab8008]

That’s not the sewer btw, that’s a storm water drain

[@boaz2001]

Lint from a dryer is great for starting a camping fire. just nee some steel wool (no soap) and a 9volt battery!

[@HUB_US]

Wow, this is beyond anything I could imagine! They drained a 200-year-old canal and found so much history buried there!

[@Hiddensecret9]

Focusing solely on what was found at the bottom can overshadow the story of the 200-year-old canal itself. The headline could add value by emphasizing the history or significance of the canal: "They Drained a 200-Year-Old Canal - This Discovery Reveals Forgotten History!"

[@dangoncrediblemoments]

I can’t believe what they found! The history hidden at the bottom of that canal is mind-blowing. 😲

[@kb5335]

You are clearly fake and this is an AI generated comment just based on the title of the video, which had nothing to do with draining a canal or “the history at the bottom” of it…..

[@J-Justice666]

(2:43) Nearly 150 kilograms? A 150 kilograms is like 330 pounds. This is so inaccurate. Guys in the river pulled out thousands of kilograms thousands of pounds of trash. Not 150 kilograms..... that's just stupid wrong.

"Working with conservation officers and within the standards for listed buildings we began to work on test trials across different areas of the façade. This helped to bring clarity to the methodology we would use to restore and revitalise the building. After selecting sensitive cleaning methods based upon our test trials, we were approved by the conservation office to use various careful and conservative steam cleaning phases to remove soiling to the stonework."
