The sanford lake was the place me and my buddy would go to all the time and now all those memories were swept away. You can still drive by there and see the empty lake and all the destruction the break left. Glad to see this disaster got recognized.

I lived in Estes Park, CO. for 10 years, which has been flooded not once, but twice by the Lawn Lake Damn in the Rocky Mountain National Park. The first time in 1981 (I believe), and the second time in 2013 which made National news. Both dam ruptures were bad enough, but the water traveled over 60 miles in 2 different directions. One path was towards Boulder, CO, which devastated Estes Park, Boulder, and all other towns in its path. The other flow was towards Loveland, Longmont and Ft. Collins. The worst part is, in both dam breaks, the water took the same paths, claiming lives in both breaks.

@ALLEN DAWE There's a channel that's all about the investigations of large scale industrial accidents; chemical plant spills, gas plant explosions, and the like. Can't remember the name, I'll look and come back in case you're interested. It never fails that companies won't take an extra recommended safety measure at $0.20 per employee, but then a year or so down the road that would have prevented an accident that cost 3 lives, thousands in hospital bills, millions in lost revenue while the plant was down for repairs and untold costs in bad faith with the community and negative press. *smh* EDIT: The channel is USCSB.

He was certain that was the worst place on earth until coming back to the states and having to spend time in Kansas. He now knows he was wrong. Kansas, according to him, is definitely the worst place on earth. 🤣

I guess you’ve never heard of an earthen dam? They’re quite common, even here in the USA.
@AUTISTICLYCAN

We have had a few earthenworks dams fail in the USA too. This is among our worst dam failures of all time. The Johnstown Flood (locally, the Great Flood of 1889) occurred on Friday, May 31, 1889, after the catastrophic failure of the South Fork Dam, located on the south fork of the Little Conemaugh River, 14 miles (23 km) upstream of the town of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The dam broke after several days of extremely heavy rainfall, releasing 14.55 million cubic meters of water. South Fork Dam was an earth- and rock-fill dam located about 8 miles east of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. ... The resulting flood wave that contained 20 million tons of water and debris caused 2,209 fatalities and became known as the “Johnstown Flood”. South Fork Dam an earthen works structure. So you see we had our damn failures too and look at that death toll. All because some super rich 1%'er goof's wanted a private fishing lake.

I mean most of you lunatics who cry about people having more money than you are usually all for public works like this..... except when they go wrong, then you blame the rich. "The South Fork Dam was originally built between 1838-1853 by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as part of the canal system to be used as a reservoir for the state's Main Line of Public Works canal basin in Johnstown. It was abandoned by the commonwealth, sold to the Pennsylvania Railroad, and sold again to private interests."

I'm reminded of a story (have no idea how true or not) about Henry Ford inviting Nikola Tesla to his factory for a tour and luncheon chat... During the tour, they happened on a section of the assembly line where a cable with clamp-on hooks would slowly and steadily draw the mostly complete cars along the floor with various workers grabbing parts and jumping onto them to install along the way... AND while Ford proudly explained his machinations, an alarm rang and the line stopped. Several guys in lab-coats assessed the thing with mostly quick visual inspections, a few shared sentiments with workers, and then one would fiddle a bit with a pulley on the floor and another would pull the lever to re-start the line... A few minutes passed and the same thing happened, and Tesla started watching over Ford's shoulder as the same antics were repeated. The third repetition, Ford was starting to get anxious and then tried to divert attention to the impending luncheon time, but Tesla was a bit simpler man, and pointedly asked why Ford didn't just fix the problem. "We've tried," Ford responded. "Some of my best guys have spent weeks studying it, and still haven't got a solution... BUT if you think you're good enough, I'd happily pay whatever you charge." "Certainly, "Tesla abruptly whirled and took a very businesslike pace out the door and down the street to a hardware store... Ford looked a little disturbed and confused, but within a matter of minutes Tesla was returning and shrugging out of his jacket, on his way to one of several boxes on the floor about the cable-works. He proceeded to open the housing and pound mercilessly on something inside for several minutes, and then casually flipped the thing shut again, returning it to working condition while yet another guy in a lab-coat pulled the lever and resumed the line working. With his jacket hooked on his fingers, over his shoulder, Tesla returned to Ford's side to watch the line for nearly twenty minutes without a single disturbance, and then handed Ford the hammer. "That will be 5 thousand and 5 dollars," Tesla nodded. For a moment, Ford was amazed that in minutes Tesla had fixed what his whole team of engineers hadn't been able to in more than a year... AND then he was incredulous. "Five THOUSAND... For a HAMMER?!" "No," Tesla shook his head. "Five dollars for the hammer... available at any hardware shop. Five THOUSAND for knowing where to swing it." ;o)

They've also yet to pay a quarter of those fines by some estimates due to the rampant corruption within Brazil's government.
