A reminder of how much planning goes into water control.

Water is uncontrollable

Incredible engineering feat.

yeah it is

Wow, that spillway is unleashing absolute chaos—nature's raw power vs. human engineering! Terrifying yet mesmerizing. 😱💦

This is the kind of infrastructure nobody talks about but everyone depends on

You want water control? Call the Dutch

Spillway

Still can’t believe a beaver built that thing.

Poseidon is a tempestuous god.

How is that not collapsing?

The curved shape is the key water pressure pushes perpendicular to the surface, so all the hydrostatic force lines up directly through the pivot points.

Planning prevents bigger problems later.

If there is any country in the world controlling water? Just call us..... +31 The Netherlands

Dam!

Overtopping of a Radial Gate. It is referred to as "weir flow," or a shallow cross section of water spilling over long, narrow strip of steel or concrete.

That spillway is a brutal reminder: water obeys physics, no exceptions. Engineers channel it with massive gates, concrete chutes, and energy-dissipating basins because unchecked flow erodes everything in its path. Hoover Dam's spillways handle 400,000 cubic feet per second; ignore fluid dynamics and pressure gradients, and structures fail catastrophically. Same in business: Theranos promised hundreds of tests from a single drop, defying basic chemistry limits on detection thresholds and sample volume. Result: $9B valuation evaporated, fraud exposed. WeWork leased long-term, sublet short-term, but scaled on hype ignoring real estate economics. $47B peak to bankruptcy. Respect the unbreakable laws; build around them. Bookmark: Master constraints first. Then dominate.

I can’t even imagine if that wall breaks. Game over. 💀

@zeusdawterr Overthinking not allowed here

That’s too much of water for any man made structure to control! Civil engineers are incredible people! 👏

Wow massive

Wow

This is what they do at The Panama Canal, water management

There is not a problem here. The damn dam dams the damned water.

Water pisses me off…

Kudos to engineer, like I don't understand how they build something like this.

What if another heavy rain falls and the bank overflows

Water is scary

Where's this place at ? The spillway looks like a nice place to fish .

The ladders seem like AI

Sampe luber gtu

Actually Water control is very necessary

Crazy

Ngeri bner deh

Wow How did humans come up with these. Sometimes I wonder how we got so technologically advanced to the point we are today

Where is that?

.....Where's "The Plan"............?

Even with those barriers
