She ignored the WARNING SIREN🚨⚠️ -

[@invalidvulture1408]

You brought up a VERY good point, Nate! Even if the dam is released just for the spectacle, it's still beneficial to the environment as well and really *should* be done, even if a human perished because of it. However, you're equally right that the government should have put a LOT more precautions in place to make sure people didn't get hurt by the whole spectacle. The fact that there could just so easily be a whole group of people that could walk into that area and get into the river without ever seeing any signs seems incredibly neglectful. ONE sign being stolen shouldn't have been enough to complete erase warning it feels like. *Maybe* there was a lot more negligence on the group's side that MrBallen didn't mention, but to me it kinda seems like there just really wasn't enough warning about how dangerous this area was to people who might just not already know.

[@Shinransa]

The thing is these guys weren't from where that dam is located. They were just here for a festival and were about to leave and just took a detour. There was no way they could've known about it unless they were from the area or coming to visit said dam since it gets tourists.

One of these days, the like button’s gonna hit back

[@matthewelliott7294]

Or possibly the dislike button.

[@allainangcao28]

Nate went from so confused to so disappointed when he found out what ad MrBallen was advertising… 😂

[@maddaya]

"Punch that like button in the face- LIKE A BOSS!! and... High fives all around. 👏👏" This is all I could hear in my head was Jack when he said to hit the like button in the face 🤣

There’s a lake near my house that is known for causing drownings yet people still go there all the time. On the surface the lake looks beautiful and turquoise coloured, but there is really fine silt on the bottom which acts like quicksand, I’ve never been there but I’ve seen it from the air before.

I was at a gas station across the highway from a 7-story hospital which was the largest building in the area and had an emergency siren on the roof. Someone with out-of-state plates was pumping gas when the monthly tornado siren test took place on a bright sunny day. (They don't do it when storms are expected.) The siren on the hospital is so loud it can be heard inside my house 5 miles away. This person looked around in utter confusion as all the local residents completely ignored the siren because they knew it was just the monthly test. 😀

[@scottydemonkingbeatbox1667]

As a New Zealander that place is now literally off limits

[@AlsoCreamy]

It’s a guilty pleasure how many times I could watch these specific videos.

[@manticoredog2501]

Hey guys, that alarm is really loud, and sounds like a warning, I have a brilliant idea: LETS GO SWIMMING WOOOOO!

[@devinsymonds268]

If you haven't seen it yet, you should check out his video on Skinwalker Ranch. It's an extremely spooky story

[@wolfranger5526]

This is why you should never mess with signs especially warning signs because you put people in danger. This includes road signs.

[@asmolblueberry]

4:26 that's when instead of getting under the stairs you run to the nearest toilet to become an environmental storytelling skeleton

I know common sense with this warning sirens would tell you to take it seriously and proceed with whatever safety plan there is for that situation, but in some situations, this "test sirens" can be annoying, like I've worked at my local mall, and one day they did a evecuation test and like I said, common sense tells you to take it seriously, but If I wouldn't been forced by my manager to evacuate, cause it's protocol, I would've carry on with my work, because what ended up being is 25 min waste of time that I had to recover during my normal schedule because I wasn't getting overtime. All I'm saying is you could just instruct the citizens/workers: "you hear this siren, something is really wrong and you get to safety!", cause doing this on the regular just wastes people's time and frustrates them, they'll take it much more serious if they hear it when it matters. Just saying, if I "test call 911" to see how fast the police can get to my house in case of a emercengy, I get fined!

[@DisorientedWanderer]

Sirens for some reason reminds me of years ago playing the original carmageddon and hearing the announcer saying "for those who are about to die, we salute you". I don't think there was a siren in the intro though

[@artistanthony1007]

Red should be enough of a reason to avoid, why do you think the Red Warning symbol for site connection is called Dangerous?

[@That_Doctor_Del_Fella]

MrBallen and Internet Historian have the best ad spots on KZbin.

[@chillwill2918]

Couldn't be me because as soon as they said lets go somewhere else wgere everyone else isn't, i know a place i would've declined and stayed where i was.If it's fenced off don't go. If you hear a siren leave. Also if we're in a posibble life or death situation and I get to safety and you don't, there's no way I'm going back for you.

[@invalidvulture1408]

Now I usually like to be the barer of good news, but uh, Nate, I hate to tell you, while that alligator got away with just a near-death experience, confusion and knowledge not to bite the spicy water noodles, there's no way that eel survived the bite and HOLD that happened because of the shock! The power of those jaws absolutely killed that eel, even if it took a few days unfortunately. It didn't bite it's tail tip, I think I've seen that exact vid you described and that was unfortunately a bite on it's intestines. Even a human can be badly squashed and impaled and live a few days before dying from internal injury/septic shock; Doesn't mean they "survived" the incident. I don't say this with the intent of being a downer or hater (Love all you guys a lot, probably my favorite react channel in fact!), but rather to maybe give insight that just because something swims/runs away unfortunately does NOT mean it's going to live. No hate to you at all, just like to clarify when it's kinda clear it's not true that "They both got away fine". Paints an incorrect image of what animals can survive, and possibly what people will just "be okay with" because "if they can handle *that*, then *this* is nothing".

PEOPLE are dumb

[@Kamenhal0]

Why am I watching this video in the middle of the night

[@tylerscott7567]

Could be one hell of a white water rapids sort of thing. Could totally monetize it

[@PINS3YTwo]

This story is literally a Wrong Turn movie.

[@dante_0962]

Now this is what I called a ironic death Rachael is the one who thought this was a good idea. She ignored the sirens. She didn’t get out the lake when the river started flooding. She thought it was a good idea to jump into the water to save someone. And lastly she’s the only one who died. Like this sounds like a story someone made up with a massage about not being a idiot and ignore any signs of danger. Like sirens and water quickly flooding the river your in.

[@alexander515425]

Could you please react to "L4D2 - Left 4 Goons" by Lythero, as that is one of the funniest videos I've ever seen? I think you would like it :)

[@darkwolf8803]

Love the videos

[@churchofthetea4273]

If you guys could react to "this trail is a death trap" always from mrballen i would love it great stuff guys

[@Kamenhal0]

You guys are the best and I have a question do you have to be on the patreon to ask you guys just watches one particular video?

[@themalcontent100]

The Darwin awards.

[@K3vin_L]

Yo Nate you guys should react to the Texas chainsaw massacre game trailers, you guys seem like you'd like that

[@burmessafox3939]

I wonder if the guy who stole the sign, did they feel guilty after hearing the death. Also, I'm the 666th like

[@highrulerdiamond6717]

Unrelated here but wanted to try and see if you guys would be willing to react to a video that does a simple yet funny review of the game Deep Rock Galactic. The video is titled Deep Rock Galactic is fantastic and you should play it. By Jocab

[@Touhou20246]

Basically the one man and other woman should have let whatever woman are unable to get up and the one man to die?😅🤨😑🙄🤔🤨🧐😓😑 edit: I ment to say that Rachael should have just let her beat friend die?!🤨😅🧐🤔🤨😳😳
