Small trench Connects River to Ocean! #shorts #asmr #oddlysatisfying #waves #weird #surfing

Here's the explanation for anyone wondering:

The thing between the canal and the ocean is a sandbar. These form naturally in many locations. These sandbars rise with time, then the high tide deforms them. And so the cycle goes on.

The thingy being dug in the sandbar is a flood creek. As you can see, in the distance there are houses, a bridge, and probably other stuff that wouldn't mind going without a flooding. If the sandbar gets too high, it represents major risks to flooding. A sandbar raising too high can be caused by many things, such as strong winds. So when this happens, the most usual procedure is for the city to send out a couple of workers to make a connection to the ocean to avoid flooding.

That's what you see in the beginning. The guys digging are not from the surfer group. They're workers assigned with this exact task by the city council to keep the coastal homes safe.

In most places I know of, surfers are allowed to have fun in these flood creeks as much as they want, as they go away pretty quickly. The water flow is as intense as this for some hours, maybe half a day, it can depend, but after that it calms down and the sandbar will be back before you know it (in one month or two the creek is usually filled back naturally).

TL;DR: It's not the surfers that dug out the connection, and the reason is to prevent a natural disaster.

Prime example of how a small action can have a drastic effect on something

Bro didn’t changed history, he changed geography ☠️

Remember, this was done to safely drain a river to prevent flooding. These are professional trench diggers (and surfers). Don't try this at home.

Some random village nearby : where tf is the river 💀☠️

Don't worry guys, salty water doesn't pollute clean water plus it's actually a fun way to make a flood have a lower chance to form

"yo, this map is wrong"
"Why"
"There should be land here"

Bro is not a national threat, he's a continental threat!

i love see people get mad about things they have absolutely no idea how works

10 million years later, this small trench would have become a new ocean and there will be 8 continents

This video is great to demonstrate why it's so important to prevent even the slightest leak in a levy.

Bro single handedly destroyed the whole eco system

Bro's gonna create a waterfall someday

Can we appreciate how nice the guy at the end was to a completely stranger by caring for him?

[adriannash]

It’s honestly crazy how fast it went from finger surfing to actual surfing

[furryfriendfamily]

girls: he must be cheating on me
boys:lets combine lake with ocean

[CanalCheioDeAnimacoes]

"911 whats your emergency?"
" I think I accidentally created a new continent"

[killergun]

This is honestly a really cool example of how erosion works. While in this example the path is carved much faster than normal due to it being sand, it shows how rivers are formed over time. If I was teaching geography to kids then i would use this video.
