Collapse Simulation

The linked video simulates the consequences of a total collapse of the Three Gorges Dam during the rainy season. Highlights a 300+ ft wall of water traveling at 60+ mph obliterating everything in it's way.

"I'm about to take you through a fully functional power plant, so please, no one wander off the dam tour and please take all the dam pictures you want. Now, are there any dam questions?"

Is a collapse imminent? What are the chances it does collapse?

The video states “when the Three Gorges Dam collapses.”

You have to remove the workers' bodies when they fall in otherwise it weakens the structure. They probably just left them in there, typical. Interested to see how the Chinese gov't tries to cover the story when the dam does eventually collapse.

Got to the part where it said Wuhan would take on water 10 hours out from the collapse and figured that 2020 would come full circle with this.

Been to all of those cities mentioned and Donting and Poyang Lakes. It is an extremely populated and industrial area. Yichang alone was 6 million people.

F*ck the CCP, but I truly feel for the Chinese people if this happens.

No mater how great we humans think we are, We are still at mother nature’s mercy. She was here before us and she’ll be here after us. Nothing but respect for her.

That sucks for the Chinese peasants, but anything that sets China back billions or trillions is a positive in my book
