This doesn’t take into consideration the debris. As the flood water travels it picks up buildings, homes, power lines and poles, cars, etc. in time the water will look like a roiling mountain flowing through the valleys. Occasionally the debris will clog. And it will hold a few seconds, a minute... and that extra pressure will cause even more destruction

[@richardcox8409]

Yeah there are lots of considerations, they would also be dumping water from any reservoirs in the flood path creating extra reserve, it would also be hard to factor in the random construction of emergency berms and diversions and if the dam fails I doubt it would be all at once. I would have liked to have seen an overall view but very interesting for sure. The Japanese tsunami would be a good data resource for city inundation flow characteristics to model on.

[@jannejohansson3383]

That water is polluted and looks that there is so much derbies that it could stuck dams power production. They basically allow that happens and whole open inside, no sidewalls between turbines. And if those cracks on wall are true, this damn is going to be breaking news.. that whole structure is stupidly bad too many ways even known facts. And there could be many problems what not known.

In certain circles, the 3 Gorges Dam is known as the Taiwanese Independence Dam. As soon as China made the dam, they essentially made Taiwan a nuclear power, since most of Taiwan's Yun Feng missiles are said to be targeted on the dam, giving Taiwan the ability to destroy at least 3 major Chinese cities.

The problem with this simulation is that it has the entire length of the dam failing all at once.

It would still be catastrophic, but you would not suddenly have 39 billion cubic meters of water flowing downstream. Someone should look at a more realistic simulation.

Those old 50-60 year old dams created during the Mao era had plenty of flaws and some had been demolished. These modern dams however, is completely different. Is there a chance of it collapsing? Yes but not like the one shown in the simulation where everyone is caught off guard and everyone dies to flood.

I know I won't get answer, but does anyone know the rate of the flow out of the dam? I think outflow was over 50,000cm3 last year when they were flooding everything downstream so it didnt blast. i think that was only like 1/2 of the spillway gates too

Anywhere there is a narrowing of a path for the water it will accelerate and the surge will go higher, amplifying the destructive force. Areas that are typically safe harbors in storm will receive deeper floods and faster currents.

[@boydgrandy5769]

The initial failure will probably not be a full collapse of the entire dam. The initial failure will either involve a limited section of the structure where it has cracked and weakened or the water will begin to escape at either or both ends of the dam as it overtops. Erosion will widen and deepen the breach, and within hours the maximum dump rate will be observed. It will be horrible and huge, but not on the scale shown here.

[@sarthsingh3271]

Nanjing and Wuhan have a population over 10 million. This scale of evacuation is nearly impossible to be carried out in just a single day. Nearest city to the dam- Yichang has a population of 4.5 million. Rapid evacuation in yichang is also nearly impossible . In order to make sure everyone stays safe, an evacuation plan needs to be floated right now. LET'S PRAY THIS DAM HOLDS UP🙏

@@killman369547 how many serious radiaton acidents had happened before Chernobyl? Actually no one that had really serious consequences.

[@stephanledford9792]

I read that 400 million people would be made homeless from the flooding if the dam collapsed. There is actually time to get many out of harm's way because of the distances involved but finding a place to put 400 million people would be a challenge, particularly if this happened in winter when people would need shelter from the cold. The question as to whether the dam could be destroyed by missiles, and some experts in Taiwan indicated that two missiles could do the job, while the designers indicated that the dam was designed to be able to survive a hit from a tactical nuclear weapon.

It's probably a PRC leak. CCP's pretty concerned about all these minor dam failures and wanted to see what a 3 gorges dam failure would look like so they can plan how to spin it and how much damage it will do, and presumably, what protocols to enact in case such a calamity happened.

[@deezynar]

If the dam fails, it is very unlikely that the whole length will go at the same time. A gap will open and rushing water will cut at it, making it bigger, and bigger. But some of the dam will remain in place, at least for a while, slowing the flow to some extent. As the water surges down stream, it will erode a lot of soil. The video showed the water being directed by the existing terrain, but in truth, the water will cut through a lot of ridges, especially those on the outside of bends in the river. That means that some water will jump into areas that this video did not show. And the mud, rock, and debris that the flow of water will carry will be a massive amount. That material alone will do a huge amount of damage. I have been skeptical that the dam will collapse simply because I don't believe that any of the builders involved in the most prestigious, most visible, most potentially dangerous construction project in China's history would fail to understand that they would be executed if they cut corners on the dam's construction, and the cause of a failure was traced back to their work. Chinese builders are notorious for shoddy work, and cutting corners to increase their profits, but in this case, who would dare do that? The premier of China has personally been involved with this project. You would have to be suicidal to mess with him.

[@johnnymnemonic69]

Exactly. Why would china waste all that money to build a dam that fails on pourpose. Unless their building skills are that poor. I guess brand new apartment complexes are so cheaply built they are falling apart and collapsing after only a few years.

[@deezynar]

@@johnnymnemonic69 Builders who cheat on apartment buildings are common in China. Builders who cheat on a massive state run project that the communist party is intimately tied to, know that they will be killed if their work fails. I'm not saying that I know the dam was well made. I'm just saying that I think self preservation, and fear, may have motivated builders who normally cheat, to do that project right.
