20 Catastrophic Failures Caught On Camera - What went wrong? 

There was another one doing the same after it. At least in this situation, I can understand why you'd prefer breaking the law.

You mean all the Pus**** who didnt want to help people in need over there.

there was like 5 of them who turned around :O @@Gabi-Alex

"Nope, not going that way" 😂

Well, work is gone in a ball of fire. I think I’ll head home

The driver knew there was no way in hell that road was gonna stay open after that, so they turned around before everyone else got the same idea and managed to avoid getting stuck in traffic. Smart.

I was starting to type just that.🤣

Seriously the only driver with any sense there. I've seen enough videos of chemical plant explosions to know that that could just be leading up to suitcase-nuke levels of blast.

yes

Was literally typing the same thing.

Yeah I agree I like this, the stupid ones with music not only show a 3 second clip BUT also don't let you know / captions what Country / Region it is in

God, you said it about the annoying music. So many people posting videos that are interesting and captivating enough on their own, feel obliged to accompany their videos with that mainstream "cheese-eater" appeasing music.

Careful, "Daddy RU-vid," might not like that you said that.

​@@artykohl1118. Daddy RU-vid could beggin by learning how to write and to read. 😂😂😂

Awesome! Thanks for the translate.👌🏻

I am weirdly proud of just how many swearwords had to be beeped xD

I learned that from building sandcastles as a kid 😂😂😂

And on top of that it is a country with a horrible buildingcode, very poor supervision, incredibly corrupt contractors, the worst safety reputation, a huge disregard for human life because of the caste system, etc, etc, etc. In this list there are four more situations in the same country.

Well, not only that, if you look at the last one as well the foundation wasnt going in that deep, look at 34:24, those foundations dont look to be going any deeper than a meter. Even when you look at the 35:06 mark it looks like some of the foundation has collapsed, however questions should still be raised about its construction and how deep those foundations were put in for a building that high. That building also looks relatively new in itself. So someone definitely cut corners to put it up

Who ever was in charge, didn’t even had the common sense of a child, let alone a degree in geology, architecture, civil engineering, or some such related topic.

#1 :. a kid could have figured out what was going to happen if you dig a deep hole beside a big structure. It used to be a beach game for us - How much can you excavate beside your sand castle before it collapses.

I thought the same thing. He probably didn't even see what was happening.

I agree though. Not only the size of the devastation, but all the different video angles throughout the city being able to capture a little pieces of its effect. I think I’ve seen more of that disaster than 911. Maybe not that but somewhat comparable in footage angles.

This is one most dangerous failure idea to caught on camera! Someone is gonna pay the bill in total! You were suspended for your own after life!

Absolutely. And the residents and authorities for listening. The stories would be so much worse otherwise.

@@dr.emilschaffhausen4683 Hydrogen, as a fuel for transportation, has no merits at all. Hydrogen is being pushed hard by Big Oil because they know that the only viable way to produce hydrogen is the dirty method of steam reformed methane (which they will gladly supply).

Damn I never thought of it that way.

That happened in the town I live in. Developers wanted two areas and shortly after the town council meetings both properties and their building went up in flames. One was a historic barn that was over 100 years old. That is no coincidence.

And they get away with it

That's downright shameful.

Why would u b filming it if coincidental accident, seems preplanned? No1 in building shows evacuation must took place longtime earlier

2' is two feet. 2" is 2 inches.

hah, that's nuthin - Wyoming can get 4-5 ft snow pack overnight with -60 degree F' in winter - open your door, solid wall of snow. I'll never do that again.

Noped right on out! “You know… I don’t need to go that direction today.”

“Well looks like I’m not getting gas there today”. -The driver(probably)

So true lol

Even America, which often uses materials with the strength of a house of cards, have less issues with the buildings just falling apart due to strong winds.

Only a less informed and stuck in birth place can say this .

Well not all of cities in INDIA are located in disaster prone areas there some but not all :)

The cop parked a whirlybird at a busy intersection. Go look again and find a single cop, sign , or barricade around that Helicopter, like the Narrator insists there must be, everywhere. How often do you encounter aircraft while driving? They are all Lucky that those rotor blades didn't atomize Medical Waste into the neighborhood. Sleep on how dumb it was to land on the road, while their buddies got to their sting operation in place, not at a park or a rooftop, but a ROAD.

@@truthsRsung it doesnt matter. you see a helicopter or an aircraft spooled up, you stay the fuck away. you dont just drive up to one and pass it, you sit there and gawk at it. No, you approach a running aircraft, you better be prepared to be bitten.

@@utley ...It does matter. The truck driver saw a stopped vehicle in the road. He didn't drive into it. You don't see anyone directing traffic, like this voucover keeps babbling on about, do you?

@@truthsRsung do YOU really need someone to direct traffic to avoid a spinning aircraft propeller that is directly in front of you? if you had a lick of common sense, you would know to avoid the big spinning heavy metal blades that would whip you up like an omelet. Sorry dude, that makes you a darwin award winner.

@@utley ...Yes, absolutely. Noone expects a giant food processor sitting at an intersection. No lights, sirens, police tape, or anyone waving their arms. Most important part, ya can't SEE the blades whirling around when it's running. You assume the threat is obvious, then why does the Narrator insist the truck driver ignored all warnings that the copter was there? There was No Warning, No Perimeter, and he didn't accidentally drive into an airport. The bird landed where trucks drive, not the other way around. All vehicles for the road have to follow laws that the helicopter can't. Like marker lights within two inches of the corners. Ask Bell, or Sikorski why they don't put lights on the ends of the rotors. It's cuz they don't license them for the Road. This is why we draw circles around an H and tell the flyboys where to park.

Google Thistle Utah landslide, also tons of videos on RU-vid and other sites.

yep, video sounds a good idea

I remember Thistle. Used to drive through there years ago. 😢

I remember my grandparents taking us up SF canyon to see the Thistle slide. Truly incredible to see. Looked like a glacier track if my memory recalls correctly.

​@@WoodWorxGuysay La ilaha illallah

Aaahhhh things exploding...... right... im not going that way anymore

Yeah he cherry-picked only stories where no one died. It’s easy to come away from this video believing that good fortune is always attainable when catastrophes happen. But these are the rare exceptions. Usually every single one of these types of mishaps results in at least a few deaths. Well maybe not the controlled demolition, like the silo that tipped the wrong way. Usually the entire vicinity is evacuated beforehand, but all the other examples shown here are extremely dangerous.

The research wasn't very good at all. Basing that purely on the crane incident. My experise. Also if it costs someone's life then people complain. They shouldn't be making which seems strange compared to news or other YT items. Of course people died on some of these clips. Disclaimer is to keep it monetised.

@@spateri728 is that why I keep seeing videos that say things like “no one was harmed”? YT will demonitize a video if they think it depicts a death or pain? Seems like pain is such a subjective thing anyway. Like pretty much every clip from America’s Funniest Home Videos would technically show people getting hurt/injured. Yet channels like that (fail army and such) seem to be monetized.

it was a stupid place for the helicopter, dangerous, there didnt seem to be any signs to prevent the truck, the truck driver may have thought why is there a helicopter left there and may not have seen the blades assuming who would be an idioyt to have them spinning this close to many vehicles....

@@neoaliphant The truck driver is the IDIOT, they drove right into the blade and caused VERY EXPENSIVE DAMAGE, the truck driver is a unmitigated buffoon.

Why does our narrator here play up signs, barricades, and a police perimeter, then crap down the medical waste haulers throat? Why the b.s. story when we have two eyes we see just fine with?

the stupid thing is having a running chopper at side highway, it only takes a truck to have a steer Tyre to blow out and chopper gone, and where was all the people protecting it i seen non as if they were the truck would not been able to turn there

@@stevekenilworth The failure here is the narrator to not be on the side of the truck driver, its the helicopter pilots, or more likely the local government who thought a helicopter landing there would be fine. There are no barricades or signs...

That was so close to a massive catastrophe, one more storm and there would have npbeen a mess.

I think they avoid showing disasters where people died.

@@annep.1905 that makes sense looking back at it. Thanks!

@@SuperFil1990 You're welcome! I noticed, watching a similar type of video (prior to this one), that they mentioned a couple times that nobody died, and when I started watching this one, I heard the narrator mention a few times that nobody died, or was badly injured. I'm rather glad of that. 🤗

That sense of humour makes this channel one of the most enjoyable on You-tube

I noticed that, too. Observant and smart kid!

Should have made something more flexibly flaccid.😮.

And then he said "Shut up, that's going to be expensive!" 🤣

It's only rigid because it's a closed cylinder. They should've set charges or det cord to take the structure apart further up. There's a reason we use cylinders for chimneys!

The attached staircase would have had reinforcements. The doorframe should have been shattered/removed prior. You can see halfway thru the fall that these pieces are still completely inract

sh-t happens even with perfect planning sometimes. I'm swedish so i trust the competence of our nordic neighbors even tho i can't understand a single word when you speak, lol (sorry but danish is really hard to understand, i can read it tho). i visited lego land in the 80's and i luved the country, the theme park (obviously), the beaches, the buildings, and i was only 6 yrs old, lol. great memories

In fact, you only need to look at the silo, how it was still founded solidly on the side facing the library building, and with some carefully placed charges in it, while the other side was with only a narrow piece of wall that would crumble first to ensure that the silo would fall towards the apartment building instead. Their mistake was placing the charges as high as they did so that the entire groundfloor (which was actually 2 floores high compared to an apartment)would remain in one piece and still standing. With a little bit of physics, they would have understood that making it lean towards the apartments would also mean that the intact side would slide over the edge of the groundfloor, which would then "catch" the top of the silo and perch it on top, with the weight mainly on the library side of the groundfloor and on the ground itself. Having reached that point, there is no way it would ever fall in the direction of the apartment building as the intact groundfloor now functioned as a perfect blockage to that end, so there was really nowhere to fall but exactly the way it ended up falling. Look at the demolition frame by frame, and you can see how it is forced out and down the side of the intact groundfloor to create an obstacle for planned fall, and hen the buttom part hits the ground, the silo is already of balance towards the library. If the investigators had looked at this particular shot of the demolition, they would easily have reached the same conclusion. The charges should have been placed at ground level instead of 3 to 4 meters up. That was the reason it failed. They unwittingly created the perfect barrier to prevent the silo from falling the right way.

It's a bad video, with a bad writer that has no business trying to write... utter nonsense.
