Busting the dam on a pond in preparation for demo with the 120 excavator 

Maybe you found some gold? Ah, ok, only a ton of mud. Ok, don't be worry, next time, eh! 😄

Y'all are like beavers, there's just one dam project right after another! Thank you, I'll be here all week. 😆

Always amazes me just how much water is in even just a dinky little pond like this one. Fun to watch it all rushin out though

This is how I got started watching RU-vid, dam busting. LetsDig was to blame. Thanks Mike. HI GRANDMA!!

I see Dirt Perfect towing and recovery being needed this summer

Its a blast draining Ponds. I like doing it. Especially when there as unsafe as this one. Great Video. The drone footage was Cool..

flash backs to the 6 year old me playing in the creek .. making dams just to breaking them up a bit later :) something hypnotizing about all that water cutting loose. thanks for sharing sir!

I like watching you build a pond better, get to see how it's done right. Draining a pond shows what can go wrong when you do not build it correctly. Pond Building Forensics.

Being a contest Judge, NYA was correct! DP said “The lower the water gets, the faster it drains”. Which would be incorrect! DP WRONG????? Yes he was! He later says “I said the faster it drops”. Which would be a different statement and correct. The important thing here is DP made an error!

Matt giving you that "what you talking about" look made the whole video. Thanks.

No matter what mr millennial says you are a genius DP lol keep em coming 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great job Mike. Always sad to see a pond go away but from farmer Chris's point of view doing it is cheaper than fixing it. Plus he gains more land to farm that'll increase his yields and make him more income. It'll even make it easier and more efficient tilling, planting and harvesting that section. Whenever you and Mr. Millinial work together it's like watching Rowen and Martin's Laugh In show. Ys never know who's going to show up and add to the comedy.

A lot of talk about not reaching and moving... Did not someone own an extension for the excavator? Another good video.

Matt and Chris look like two Mexicans gettin ready to swim the Rio Grande

No DP that faster you dig and stop talking on the phone. The faster it drains. Lol God bless

Really Surprised the backside of that damn hasn’t slid off. If it was any taller it would have for sure.

I have a vision of one day on one these pond drainings, Captain Kleeman flying past the camera on a surf board 😂

Great video ! Amazing that dam still held so well with that amount of water leaking through ! Would love to see drone shot of where the water went through the woods etc ! Cheers guys !

Cool video, that is an impressive machine

Looks great Mike, Matt could have 🏄‍♂️ surf down the hill🤣🤣

Farmer Chris sure could have irrigated a bunch of corn or beans with that pond.

Love watching these projects and seeing why they failed thanks. Stay safe

'Who let the water out' - remember this one! The culprit was you Dirt Perfect me thinks. Gosh it must have been freezing cold day for you all. Good viewing.

Best dam breach videjo ever love your content and the production values keep getting better all the time hoping for a full field tile plow video soon keep up the good work

I'd call that a damn dam. Yeah I know, nothing original about that comment. How about a helluva damn dam. Or a damn porous dam. Or a leaky dam dammit. Maybe, a dam leaking like a damn sieve. I got it, a poorous damn dam. OK I give up. I have nothing better at his time.

good evening from Alaska. I think your funnel/water drainage theory may be flawed? the higher the level, the higher the volume, the higher the pressure. think abiut an oil change. when you first pop the plug it shoots out pretty fast. as the volume drops the rate of flow drops. I am no scientist but I am struggling to agree with your theory.

When Matt yelled it was a lily pad it sounded like ceiling fan hahahahaha...thought that was your exotic plant for a second 😜

My mind may be playing tricks on me but I swear I seen a skull roll out at the 20:36 mark I even slowed the video down and still think I see a skull.. I'm not trolling just check it out for yourself!!

OK its about time for a new intro to your videos, your kids are bigger , your wife is prettier and your getting uglier 😆😂, but your still entertaining as well as your sidekicks.

Would have been nice to see where it drains to with the drone.

I know I would have stopped using the machine and started digging out the leak just enough to watch erosion do it's work lol. Maybe set up a timelapse

I swear to God, one more ad during this video and I'm not going to finish watching it. I'd asked you to why the footing in so many ads. This is like the eighth set of ads in this video and it's not even halfway over, just kidding I'm exaggerating but there's a ton of ads in this one

See any 100lb catfish coming out? Grab 'em and cook 'em!

Wow did you see that mermaide and i think three frog men go down there🧜‍♀️🐸🐸🐸🌊

Do you think Chris over at LetsDig18 would allow you to put the thumb he designed on your machines?

Looks much like the breech we have in Washington DC and our southern border.

I wonder what size fish he had on there.shoulda put up a chicken wire fence up down toward the woods.you prob could have had a fish fry.

Mike thst looked like some nasty dirt did you notice any wildlife in the pond your videos are always so cool to watch but you nailed it and never slid in which was good otherwise you would be calling in the cavalry to save you

Hi from uk mike and crews👋👍 that dam was seaping pretty bad 😵 it would not of bin long before it would of slid away by itself and washed out the flow of water as you dug it out it must of washed a pretty good channel out between layers and hope you record the filling process ( chris ld18 did a good fill in a while back ) was a mess to he cleaned it and filled it over time to reclaim that little bit extra land back as pond was no longer required 👌 same here I guess but thanks for your time and be safe see you soon👍👋

It was interesting to watch the procedure digging the trench, good way to kill half hour!

Its very deceptive the amount of water .in what appears to be a small dam.that alot draining out.such a wast.

DP, Just how the heck am I supposed to get any of my own work done when you keep putting out these awesome videos one after another?

What state are you in . so cool always wanted to do those things you do . lol going around in circles.,lol

It looks like Mike is wearing his new Ariat shop slippers and they look like hell already.

Wondering what the county thinks about dumping that much water?!

Where is the water flowing to

Like the video on busting the pond .

Matt if you had to go that bad there's a treeline just over the hill... lmbo

Good way to start the evening. Thanks DP for the upload.

I absolutely love pond vids,especially, draining ponds.It would have been cool to see a time laps on the lowering of the water

Obviously, you didn't build that pond. I wonder if it was the same people who built Matt's pond? ;-)

Still held a lot of water for a leaking dam about how old was the pond?

Where was NYA millennial to ride the wake down in his canoe?!

"The lower the water gets, the faster it drains" was what DP actually said. Drains would seem to indicate flow.

instead of speaking plain English, there he goes again with the engineering talk?

You should have Arron dance to the intro song 🎯💯👍😁

Surprised you didn’t have to build a silt pond below that one just to drain it.

Yes it’s ground water!! NOW,! lol.

No doubt demo is the best option for that one. The different dirt layers show up pretty well on camera and have to say I'm pretty sure there was atleast more clay in that dam than in MM's 😆. Another job well done DP 😁👍

Coolest dam breach yet. Thanks for sharing.

No body said nothing about any fish coming out of there

A guy down the hill making a video of the flash flood.

Hopefully the extra land will pay off sooner than later for Farmer Chris

Should have benched the dam then dug the channel in the pond up to the dam, then done the outside channel and break it open. it would have drained out without the constant work keeping it flowing.

POST10 has nothing on you guys! LOL...

That was deeper than I thought it would be. Whoever built it must have used the dirt from it to put the dam in. It's hard to believe it held as long as it did. It was probably on its way to catastrophic failure. Not sure it would've made it another year or two. She's gonna take a crap ton of fill that's for sure.

Should have brought your kayaks....

A lot water . Nice looking pond to be in mess like it was.

μια χαρα ειναι το βολβο γιατί παλιό 👀👀🍺🍺💪💪💲💲👌👌

Hey Mike, The video you post 11 hours ago about tile plow upgrades will not open. A statement about "Private" comes up. Lee

Hey guys, I need to get some Murch, but it looks like you’re out of everything that I want. I’ll keep checking. How often do y’all restock?

Well at least you stopped that leak!!!

So what your saying is the less it rains the dyer you get! 🤡

WERE ARE THE CROCKS NOW MIKE ?? LOL 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I mute DP whenhe starts arguing….😁

Will Jerry be running one of the dozers

Am l the only female watch,We learn some things every day, Enjoyed

Almost as fun as watching explosions!!

what about the wild life. poor things

25.00 in and still no shopping cart !

I was hoping for a huge catfish at the bottom!

That seems like it would be a lot of fun

I’m thinking farmer Chris

Is it really worth YouTubing if there's no collateral damage?

You lost all your viewers for bathroom breaks, potty trained with running water!

Cool video, love watching.

Good to see you back in action,, pond-wise, that is.

woot where's my surfboard!

Brilliant work and thanks for sharing this with us take care

You guy’s need a raft to ride the rapids

Fish fry and Frog legs? Or too early

You should be in northern Wisconsin, we still have snow on the ground.

Very stupid to put the excavator like that! A quick retreat is impossible like this!

At 21:15 , How are you not getting some sort of raft to ride down that river? haha. i know its cold but that would be 1 hell of a fun ride!!!

So how many fish did Mr Millennial windup taking home????

Did that pound have a fish in it. ? If did you'll shoud. caught them and have a big fish fry For the work At the house for the human habitat

Oh the Video beginn with a Drone taking! And Your find a Newt, it's here Hiking Time. There breaking You the Dam where he is leak and the Water flow off. I glad me of the next Video. Greeting 🇦🇹👍

Hello fellow post10 viewers!

Good job Mike, I’m thinking she’s going to drain pretty good👍👍👍😎😎😎😎🍮🍮🍮🍮☀️☀️☀️☀️

Looks like the 120 is holding together nicely since the boring and new pins I was curious how long it would last.
