this is is a great video loved it you make a lot of good points I haven’t seen Lake Mead or Hoover dam since 1992 when I shot a commercial in Hollywood lake level is shocking to see wow. Your style reminds me of Richie from Boston I think you’re legit good guy, he has become an angry jerk 🤨 I loved sering the Vertical boat it’s a landmark, looks like a giant ruler 📏 I saw that clip of the gentleman sucked into quicksand he barely got out with his clog-shoes. Keep up the good work PS you would like the Josh Gates exploration X episode about Lake Lanier in GA its haunted was built in one part over an existing graveyard with no regard for the cemetery. Phil Torres scuba’s over the gravestones & you see them 😮 A creepy episode sad to see that.

Oh wow that sounds like an awesome video. I will definitely find it. Thank you so much for watching and the awesome comment.

[@sparkytuttle2966]

Hey there Marc, this video sent me on a research frenzy. I almost cried when you drove past Boulder Beach. Before they started charging to go to the lake, I would take my iroc, take the top off, blast my music and drive to Boulder Beach to beat the sunrise. I did that every morning, for months. I would swim out to the buoy and watch the sun come up...and sing. Some of my most cherished moments was during those mornings. Do you remember going out to Boulder Beach as a kid? They used to have that floating platform where all the kids would swim. This sucks. The last time I was there was in July of 2015, the beach was too filthy so we left and went to Willow Beach. It was shocking how clear and cold the river was. It just feels like in the last few months the water is disappearing much faster. So, I learned for the lake to be called a dead pool, there can't be any water going over the damn. This was an excellent video, heartbreaking but educational . Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart.💔😭

[@TheOtherMeLV]

I remember the platform that we all swam to as kids. My mom took us to other places to swim as a kid so I wasn't at the beach much. I did however go out on boats quite a bit in my 20s. It is very heartbreaking to see, especially since I saw them open the floodgates on the damn when the lake had too much water. Hopefully there's some sort of plan. Thank you, SPARKY.

[@sparkytuttle2966]

@@TheOtherMeLV I was telling my daughter about the flood gates. I took her to see that but she was too young to remember, she's 42 now. Your video really broke my heart. I learned to water ski right in front of the damn. The guys told me about the giant catfish down next to the damn. I was pretty much walking on water before the boat accelerated. Lol! I hated the rocky shore line but loved swimming alone out in the early morning. Loved taking my jet ski's to every cove, loved the paddle wheel boat for dinner with my kid, even loved the damn tour. Took my bf's motorcycle out to the damn tour, came out and the bike was stolen. Had to fast talk my way on to a senior bus tour to get back to town. But my favorite screw this moment came when my bf and I bought a racing boat that had tanks filled with jet fuel, one one each side. It was magnificent. It cost a bazzilion bucks. The day came to put it in the water. My daughter and her friend, myself and bf felt the power as the front of this jet started to point towards the sky. It was loud and fast. For about 5 minutes. Then it caught on fire. Two mafia hairy chested gold chained guys circled us on jet ski's and offered to tow us back in. The whole thing did not go as expected. And that was my boat story. 😱 Lake Mead was a part of my life.

[@Nails346]

Lake Mead at 180 feet higher than current level represents approx 100 pct full. Lake Mead at 150 lower than current level represents “dead pool”. Current level represents approx 26 percent of total capacity. The speed of drop is accelerating as we can see 150 feet = 26 percent on the down side and 180 feet = 74 percent on the up side. Think of a bowl which is wider at the top than the bottom. So even though 150 feet seems like a lot remaining, when looked at in the context of the 180 feet lost at 76 pct….the loss is accelerating every day.

[@TheOtherMeLV]

That's the point I'm trying to get across. The amount that is dropping now, not in the past. It's accelerating at an alarming pace. Thank you, Charles.

Date: December 6, 2021 / Updated: May 19, 2022 / May 26, 2022 / June 14, 2022 My name is Tim Bledsoe of North Augusta, SC. Recently, I read some articles about the extremely low level of water in Lake Mead. I also read that the experts, as of now, seem to all agree NOT to advise drastic action be taken in order to stem the usage of water from Lake Mead. There is an “old BUT very true” saying, “Without water, there is NO LIFE!” I am no expert in hydrology nor geology nor meteorology, BUT it is very clear that a huge percentage of people ARE NOT conservative with using water! In using water, most Americans give NO second thought about this. Americans tend to be “reactive” instead of “proactive”. “THE EXPERTS” who are advising little to NO ACTION be taken NOW, could very well be contributing to a MAJOR disaster! Earlier, I stated that I am no hydrologist nor a meteorologist, but there are certain "common sense" factors that must be considered. For example, in order to reasonably calculate the amount of water in Lake Mead, the inward curvature of the banks, as they slope to the lake bottom, must be considered. Also, the various depths of the lake bottom. If these two factors allow a reasonable calculation of the water in Lake Mead, then the (available water volume in the lake) minus (the volume of water being used) will; most certainly; yield a negative number. At this point, the only possible way to help slow the drain of Lake Mead is to mandate water conservation; immediately! I read that the next decision about “cutting / rationing” the lake water will be in August, 2022. PLEASE, for one important moment, REALIZE that August is 3 months away! You CAN NOT ration what doesn’t exist! You ALL may see this as being EXTREMELY alarmist, but no-one can rule-out the possibility. LET US keep this “possibility” FROM BECOMING a “probability”! There is a simple BUT very excellent old saying for just this problem, “Always error on the side of caution!” The users of the water in Lake Mead truly; NOT MAYBE; but truly have no choice! These users of the lake’s water are going to have to take an extremely accelerated crash-course in hydrology and meteorology. These users MUST understand the science behind what is happening. The current situations of very small amounts of snow-pack, small amounts of rain, seepage-basin concepts and realities, and the huge amount of daily evaporation must be understood! Also, the fact that the snow-pack will have melted by the end of June. If all of this fails, just simply show them the extremely large “bath-tub ring” around Lake Mead and hope; beyond ALL HOPE; that this “picture will paint much more than a thousand words of reality!” Again, "WITHOUT WATER, THERE IS NO LIFE!" There is absolutely no doubt that a very significant number of people will protest and ignore a mandated water conservation law. Whether or not you are religious, this is an essential time to ask for an abundance of rain and snow, in order to "feed" the drainage basin up-stream and for Lake Mead!

@@Nails346 This is Tim Bledsoe. Thank-you for your positive comment! I live in South Carolina, and even I am concerned! I know this sounds like I am claiming a conspiracy from the government, BUT I don't believe they are being even remotely honest with the 20 plus million people getting water from Lake Mead!! Number one, I don't believe they are using the correct method to calculate the remaining water in the lake. The reason the lake has dropped, I believe 3 or 4 feet in June, is because the bottom of the lake is "curving inward" just as the banks of almost all bodies of water do!!

This is what Global Warming / Climate Change looks like. little rain and snow, much evaporation, hot temperatures, "acidification" The entire West, CA, AZ, NM, CO, NV, UT - is in a 22 year drought. The Colorado River is drying up. Hoover Damn may have to be shutdown due to low water levels. The Rio Grande is also declining and drying up. The West will face rationing of water next.

I’ve seen the verticals boat in a lot of videos… what I’d like to know is how it sunk so perfectly verticals and stayed that way all these years. Probably the weight of the motors kept it upright and now they’re buried in mud?

[@TheOtherMeLV]

Yeah they are seriously buried in mud lol. To me it was just a mission to get to it. I tried in the Jeep but couldn't get close. I would have walked out but the mud is still very soft and deep. I appreciate you watching, thank you.

[@RemoteTrooper]

When the boat submerges the bow points upwards while the air slowly escapes or never escapes at all holding the boat vertical. The mud underneath the water will swallow a few feet of the rear over the course of a couple decades holding it upright.

[@BrylcreemBill]

The decision was made to fill Lake Powell to capacity at the expense of Lake Mead. The Colorado River is not producing as much water as it used to because of decreasing snowpack in the Rockies during winter. At the same time, more and more water is needed in the Southwest because of increasing population. This is a recipe for disaster. I don't know if Lake Mead will completely dry up, but I think you can bet on it becoming a dead pool.

Recently, I read some articles about the extremely low level of water in Lake Mead. I also read that the experts, as of now, seem to all agree NOT to advise drastic action be taken in order to stem the usage of water from Lake Mead. There is an “old BUT very true” saying, “Without water, there is NO LIFE!” I am no expert in hydrology nor geology nor meteorology, BUT it is very clear that a huge percentage of people ARE NOT conservative with using water! In using water, most Americans give NO second thought about this. Americans tend to be “reactive” instead of “proactive”. “THE EXPERTS” who are advising little to NO ACTION be taken NOW, could very well be contributing to a MAJOR disaster! Earlier, I stated that I am no hydrologist nor a meteorologist, but there are certain "common sense" factors that must be considered. For example, in order to reasonably calculate the amount of water in Lake Mead, the inward curvature of the banks, as they slope to the lake bottom, must be considered. Also, the various depths of the lake bottom. If these two factors allow a reasonable calculation of the water in Lake Mead, then the (available water volume in the lake) minus (the volume of water being used) will; most certainly; yield a negative number. At this point, the only possible way to help slow the drain of Lake Mead is to mandate water conservation; immediately! I read that the next decision about “cutting / rationing” the lake water will be in August, 2022. PLEASE, for one important moment, REALIZE that August is 3 months away! You CAN NOT ration what doesn’t exist! You ALL may see this as being EXTREMELY alarmist, but no-one can rule-out the possibility. LET US keep this “possibility” FROM BECOMING a “probability”! There is a simple BUT very excellent old saying for just this problem, “Always error on the side of caution!” The users of the water in Lake Mead truly; NOT MAYBE; but truly have no choice! These users of the lake’s water are going to have to take an extremely accelerated crash-course in hydrology and meteorology. These users MUST understand the science behind what is happening. The current situations of very small amounts of snow-pack, small amounts of rain, seepage-basin concepts and realities, and the huge amount of daily evaporation must be understood! Also, the fact that the snow-pack will have melted by the end of June. If all of this fails, just simply show them the extremely large “bath-tub ring” around Lake Mead and hope; beyond ALL HOPE; that this “picture will paint much more than a thousand words of reality!” Again, "WITHOUT WATER, THERE IS NO LIFE!" There is absolutely no doubt that a very significant number of people will protest and ignore a mandated water conservation law. Whether or not you are religious, this is an essential time to ask for an abundance of rain and snow, in order to "feed" the drainage basin up-stream and for Lake Mead!

@@nickolaslewis4416 This is Tim Bledsoe. Thank-you for your positive comment! I live in South Carolina, and even I am concerned! I know this sounds like I am claiming a conspiracy from the government, BUT I don't believe they are being even remotely honest with the 20 plus million people getting water from Lake Mead!! Number one, I don't believe they are using the correct method to calculate the remaining water in the lake. The reason the lake has dropped, I believe 3 or 4 feet in June, is because the bottom of the lake is "curving inward" just as the banks of almost all bodies of water do!!

The Water level in that area has been dropping for decades. We used to go down river from Temple Bar back in the late 1950s and the water level was down from previous visits. Longer droughts and lower snow levels have been one cause of lower levels, added increased usage by Cal. Nev. Arizona and Colorado have increased the rate of water loss.

If you want to hear the story about how that houseboat at the end video ended up there, he did an interview with Sin City Outdoors. Yes he is camping out on the boat, and he explains why in that video. The one thing that I'm curious about is, is there any talk about cleaning up Lake Mead, getting rid of these old boats, and barrels, and the other stuff now poking out of the lake?? Whether or not the lake levels go up I would think it a good time to clear the junk out of the reservoir, at least clean it up for the fish and birds and other wildlife that uses the lake.

Your viewers need to understand that Lake Mead (and Lake Powell) will continue to drop as long as they are generating power, or they reach "dead pool" levels. It takes a tremendous amount of flowing water every second to generate electricity. This also explains why Lake Mohave and Lake Havasu are at near normal levels.

There is a simple BUT very excellent old saying for just this problem, “Always error on the side of caution!” The users of the water in Lake Mead truly; NOT MAYBE; but truly have no choice! These users of the lake’s water are going to have to take an extremely accelerated crash-course in hydrology and meteorology. These users MUST understand the science behind what is happening. The current situations of very small amounts of snow-pack, small amounts of rain, seepage-basin concepts and realities, and the huge amount of daily evaporation must be understood! Also, the fact that the snow-pack will have melted by the end of June.

There is absolutely no doubt that a very significant number of people will protest and ignore a mandated water conservation law. Whether or not you are religious, this is an essential time to ask for an abundance of rain and snow, in order to "feed" the drainage basin up-stream and for Lake Mead!

It's more than the dam needing water. 7 States draw water from the river that feeds Lake Mead. A lot of them draw water for agriculture irrigation and the treaty stating the terms and allowed amounts used a year that was experiencing a 500 year high availability of water to come up with the numbers. Now after 20 years of drought and a gigantic expansion of irrigated farmland there is simply nothing left. In other words the river needs to have 500% more water just for things to stay the same right now. The Fed Dept in charge of the river has been trying to hammer out a new treaty for years now but the States with water don't want to lose the irrigation.

@@douglascampbell9809 This is Tim Bledsoe. Thank-you for your positive comment! I live in South Carolina, and even I am concerned! I know this sounds like I am claiming a conspiracy from the government, BUT I don't believe they are being even remotely honest with the 20 plus million people getting water from Lake Mead!! Number one, I don't believe they are using the correct method to calculate the remaining water in the lake. The reason the lake has dropped, I believe 3 or 4 feet in June, is because the bottom of the lake is "curving inward" just as the banks of almost all bodies of water do!!

[@Bluebird590]

Awesome update 👏 👌 I was wondering beginning of the video 2008 Looks like 100 feet difference 💦

[@ronbown3836]

That houseboat is owned by some guy That's basically living on it and in the last few days diesel brothers from the TV show came there and pulled him off and into safe area in the water again.

I shout them out in my latest update video for their awesome act of humanity. Them and Sin City Outdoors are great people indeed.

[@HomerSimpson-hu2ki]

Its sad generations to come will never enjoy this will only live in youtube videos

[@SaRaH-et2tt]

That is such an amazing heavy truthful statement.

[@dethray1000]

nonsense--the lake was empty in 1936--more on

[@tedharrell2186]

Nice job.

[@myheart2joy588]

Bad ass, bro

[@TheOtherMeLV]

Thank you!

[@rudejase]

They're selling the water to Nestle.

[@MicheleMonroe]

It looks like you guys had a fun day!

[@LetYrLiteShine]

That's really scary that the water levels are dropping that quick. So will all our homes become defunct?

[@jckhammer]

well if there are critical water shortages and whatever emergencies are prob going to occur, ask yourself if you would buy a house in an area where there is no water. You wouldnt and noone else would either. You prob wouldnt even be able to give your house away

[@jimscarnivorekitchen4731]

Great vid

[@fordxbgtfalcon]

I expect some planes to start appearing pretty soon because several have disappeared in lake mead over the last several decades.

Date: December 6, 2021 / Updated: May 19, 2022 / May 26, 2022 / June 14, 2022 My name is Tim Bledsoe of North Augusta, SC. Recently, I read some articles about the extremely low level of water in Lake Mead. I also read that the experts, as of now, seem to all agree NOT to advise drastic action be taken in order to stem the usage of water from Lake Mead. There is an “old BUT very true” saying, “Without water, there is NO LIFE!” I am no expert in hydrology nor geology nor meteorology, BUT it is very clear that a huge percentage of people ARE NOT conservative with using water! In using water, most Americans give NO second thought about this. Americans tend to be “reactive” instead of “proactive”. “THE EXPERTS” who are advising little to NO ACTION be taken NOW, could very well be contributing to a MAJOR disaster!
