Ice Dam Breaks and Creates Torrential Water Flow || ViralHog

Occurred on February 24, 2022 / Saint Johnsbury, Vermont, USA

"Most days when I take my walk through Saint Johnsbury Vermont, I sit down on a rock on Elm Street and get the same picture of the Moose River just upstream from where it joins the Passumpsic River. Today, I did that and then decided to take a little video of the swollen river and all of the ice in it, when suddenly a raging torrent from an ice jam upstream swept down, just a moment after I hit record! It went on like this for 5 or 6 minutes before settling down and filling up completely with ice. I have never seen anything like it!"

When we transitioned from “holy smokes” to “oh my gosh” I knew things were getting serious

Am I the only one who would've ran away immediately instead of sticking around to see if I'm gonna get drowned in an icy river?

This is a lucky man, not only did he experience an ice dam breaking but he got to experience natural selection right after!

"What in the world is this?" Right after he perfectly described what it is

I love watching water. The sound it makes when it's flowing so fast is so satisfying

[adriaanboogaard]

It called Nature. I've worked outside all my life .I'm 54 and very happy you got to experience it and found your video refreshing. Keep exploring.

"It's a flood. An ice damn just broke."
Two seconds later...
"What in the world is this?"
Poor guy has amnesia.

[PoeInTheDitch]

"Holy smokes."
"Oh my gosh."
Maybe if he was washed away in the flow we would've even gotten a "Well, gee willikers"...
