Fort Fritz
Chapter Three: Water Rights
(upbeat music) - Welcome back to Fort Fritz, I'm your host Fritz. Joined as always by co-host, man daddy. - Hi. - Angela. - Dio. - Marie. - Hello. - And Nick Spry. Greetings to what has happened, and that's a lie. Since last episode, we've just been still here on the shore. We took a little nap that was needed. - It was beyond needed. I could use your four more, actually. - So we traveled over here. Thank you to Folly Jeanks, by the way. Folly Jeanks, for those who are the best new listeners, Folly Jeanks is a squid beast that my late uncle found, and it killed at least one person. - The friended? - Adopted? - Yeah, we don't know if it's-- - It's a rescued kaiju, it's a rescued kaiju. - We don't know if it's-- - Can everybody really own him? - Yeah, it owns us, really. - We don't know if it's chaotic neutral or something, but definitely helped us get here. Yeah, and it was driving like a bat out of hell. I thought that was all Marie, so in my apologies. - Yeah, saved by a cat, and then a tentacle beast. I mean, we just need help from more and more animals, it seems. - But we are here, because obviously we're staring at this dam, it smells real bad around here, too. - Hell of a dam. - I feel sad. But this place doesn't feel good. - It's a very eerie, it feels damned. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Dang, it's dang. - My spider senses tingly. - Audio hashtag spriters, so get it. - Trade mark. - Also, should I get a leaking like this? Aren't dams supposed to stop water? What's going on here? - Yeah, most dams aren't cracked with a gushing, rivulet of water going right through. - No, it's not supposed to do the opposite of that, right? - Yeah, it's supposed to, yeah. - A beaver would not like this dam. A beaver would see this dam and be like, "Oh, no, no, no, no." - Something is on a rye here. - I would imagine-- - Or a spry. - I would imagine that this entire bay was probably underwater, if there are artifacts. Let's just check them out. Maybe this happened before the dam, or I mean, that dam doesn't look brand new. I'll tell you that. - Nothing definitely not. - So massive disrepair. - All right, let's just start looking. - Great, that's another little story story in the danky danky. I like a different sort of danky, but I don't have to do with this. - Oh my god, 13 can from 1910. - Whoa, is it still closed? - Yeah, I want to put it in the back head. - There you go. - Yeah, at least it's less grabber. - If air never touches it, you can eat it. That's how it is, you know. - Actual meat. - You can try it. - You just found anything else over there? - No, I just find some weird markings in random areas. You guys seen this? - I always try to avoid seeing weird markings. That as a Cthulhuist, that kind of creeps me out. - Yeah, well, that's a graffito tag over there. - Ah, that's not to say that on the other side. - Next to that, next to that though. - Oh, yeah. - On the other side. - Oh yeah, what is that? - Oh, I've got a, this looks like a sky box. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Rookie, Michael Jordan card. - What? - What? - Let me just hold on to that. - Oh no, no, no, no. My bad, my bad, my bad, it's Michael B. Jordan. - Oh! - Oh, okay. - Yeah. - Rookie card. - No known for his basketball play. - It was pretty good though, he had a good reputation. - Not known for the basketball skills. - Yeah. - Okay, so, okay guys, look over there. Those, what are those things popping up? - Oh, I'm not falling for that again. - There's a-- (laughing) - Come over here and smell it. I'm gonna tranche through this muck over here. - Don't have-- - I'm trunching. - I'm trunching. - I'm trunching. - Dropping. - Trunching. And, I'm wiping off. - What are you wiping off? - Wait, wait, wait, this thing is getting-- - It's a tombstone. - It's a tombstone. - It's a tombstone. - No, no, no, no, no, no, no. - It'd be very disrespectful. - And, it's a life was from 1778 to 1779. - Wow. - With the whole century. - No, no, no, no, no, no, just a year. - Oh, I'm so sorry. - Let me just wipe off some more. There's another one here. This one's 1843, 1844. - What? - Just baby? - Yeah, this is like a baby cemetery. This is kind of-- - That's terrible. - It's a terrible remote site. - How many are there? - Oh, no, no, no, no, I count at least 23-- - Oh, my God. - I can see right here. - I told you. - I told you, I told you. I had a mad villain. - They're all babies. - Under this damn-- - Oh, no, no, no. - Wait, there's a damn-- - That's gonna do. - There's a children cemetery. - Yeah. - I don't like this. - You think something bad happened here? - I know that something bad is happening. - I know that something bad happened here. Have you all ever heard of the Hales Bar Dam? - Ooh, the Hales Bar Dam? - The Hales Bar Dam. So the Hales Bar Dam is a former hydro facility located below Chattanooga in Marion County. Now according to a lot of websites and a lot of different researchers, it ranks among the top in the haunted dam category here in the U.S. - But there's more? - Yeah, evidently there's a bunch of dams that are haunted. - Dams are terrifying. - Yeah, and back in the day, they take so long to make, and they're so dangerous to make, that there's always gonna be some issues, and there's gonna be some death. Even though dams are already dangerous and intrinsically to make, maybe you shouldn't make in an area that it's already been cursed. - Oh my. - Because in 1775, according to some historical accounts, a Native American warrior chief named Chief Dragging Canoe. - Okay. - Love that name. Chief Dragging Canoe. He was upset that those tribes lands, oh, his hunting grounds actually, were being given to European settlers in what is now Kentucky and Tennessee, and he angrily warned that this land would be, quote, "Dark and bloody." Dark and bloody, right? - Very attractive. - Let's have a big construction thing, other. And at the place it is on the Tennessee River, it's called the Narrows. And it was a very dangerous area, 'cause there's a lot of whirlpools and different, there's our phenomenon in there. - Strings coming back and forth. - And so, some of the different dangers in the Narrows go by different names such as the boiling pot, the skillet, the frying pan, so you're either in a skillet, you're in the frying pan. - Hot, hot, hot imagery there. - And the worst one, the suck. - Oh my god. - The suck. - Is that the worst one then? - Well, according to the Native Americans, because the whirlpool named the suck, said that Native Americans who live on the land say they can see the souls of their ancestors swirling around in the suck, and that if you get too close to the suck, your own soul will be sucked into the suck. - All right, that's pretty bad. - So, it's a lot of suck sucking there. So, that's, once again, not a great place to maybe put a damn. But they went for it anyway. - Okay, well, you know, the Native American chief probably was just like, damn you white people. - Yeah, white people, literally. - And they're like, yes, we are. We are giving it a damn. - A thousand percent what we are doing. - What are these idiots now? Let's build a damn here. - Yes, fuck 'em. So, the construction began in 1905, and went on until 1913. Now, in that time, there was plenty of death. So, kickback, and let's hear a list of death, shall we? - This was a long time ago too. So, they didn't know too much about damn building, I would imagine. - Oh, yeah, it's, I mean, especially when you're doing a construction project that large. - And it was in 1905 to 1905? - Yeah, I do sure it was definitely not a thing yet. - Now, a boiler explosion took the life of one man, a falling, darit crushed two people. One poor soul had his foot wrapped in a rope, and he was pulled underwater, drowned, of course. There was also murders at the camps. There were shootings. - Oh my God, with all that, they're still like, you know what, let's just add in like just like people and people killing. - Yeah, why wouldn't you? And this was my personal favorite. At a bar fight, a guy got hit with a bench, hit his neck. Someone hit someone with a bench, just picked up a bench and wailed on him. - It's kind of like Titanic when they're trying to get through that locked area, you know? And they're like, "Fuck where you see them?" And they pick up the bench. I mean, how else are you supposed to become the hardcore champion of the damn builders, you know, union? You light it on fire and power bomb someone through it. - Yeah. - Is that a family history thing for you? Do you, like, are you part of that click? - Oh no, no, no, no, I'm very much very, very afraid of everything, bench. (laughing) - There was a project engineer that died from an ear infection. The body of one of the people in the hails family. - Right. - Yeah, the ear infection. - That'd be a real sad way to go. - Yeah, it really would. - What did he die? Wow, an ear infection? Wow, I'm just getting a bench to the neck. Carl's his ear infection, man. He's embarrassed to compare that story. - The body of one of the members of the hails family was found on railroad tracks run over. - So, was it a hails family construction? - Yeah, hails and bar. - Okay, gotcha. - Now, the one that gets really creepy is that three workers fell into the concrete while it was being poured, and they just left him there. - No. - And so their bodies are still in the walls of the concrete somewhere, kind of like the Philadelphia experiment I talked about last week, just people frozen in walls dead. - They were alive when they fell in and they just kept pouring the concrete? - They couldn't stop it. - Right, yeah. - They were really bad. - But they continued on and they made it in 1913. And it was always had problems. It was always a leaky thing. - Oh, really? - Yeah, it always had issues, for some reason, almost like it was cursed and bloody. And they even had a team called the Rag Brigade that would walk around and shove whatever they had into little leaks and everything, like just little handkerchiefs or hats, whatever they had for a dollar a day or something. - Like the Dutch boy. - Like the Dutch boy, did they just pay people to shove their thumb in a hole and be like, "Just stand there." - I wouldn't be surprised. - I wouldn't be surprised the way they treated this thing. - Jesus. - And so after all that, they finally, about 19, in the 1960s, I think it was 1964. So the TVA made the decision that just, we're gonna shut it down. So they decommissioned it and built another dam about a few miles down the river, six and a half miles downstream. - Quick question, what's the TVA? - That's the Tennessee Valley Authority, not the Time Variance Association. - Oh, damn. - So did they, so it was an operation starting in 1913, and then in 1964, it was shut down? - Yes. - So because of just-- - 50-year leaks? - Just because it was just obviously poorly constructed, it was obviously by the '60s, we had better technology, and there's no way we're gonna allow some like this. It's obviously dangerous. - Was this an energy generating dam? - Yes, it did have that. And they actually did move some of the hydroelectric parts down the river. - Yeah. - Because of all this bad juju going around, people say that it's been haunted, it's always been haunted, and then you go there now, where a lot of it is still up, it's gutted and everything, and it's just been completely derelict, but you can still go there. And they say you can always hear a lot of sounds of children, a lot of footsteps. People have said they've actually seen footsteps happen in front of them where the dust rises, and they'll see the footprints. - No. - And so why is that? - Because ghosts be walking. And they hear children, they have a reason for the children, but some of the other, they, of course, they think that the workers trapped in the wall or maybe they think that there are some people that they've seen chief dragging canoe, sounds canoe, but they say they've seen a Native American man walking across these walkways, and they've seen that. And here's my favorite I saw somewhere. There's also allegedly a murdered young girl named Linda, apparitions of school children, all this, and then in the middle it said, "A presence called Chris." (laughing) - Okay. - That is my favorite thing I've ever seen when you look at this. - Okay, shut up one day. - We have chief dragging canoe, we have dead children. That's Chris. We have-- - He goes by a mod on him only, Chris. - The reason for their, possibly being a bunch of dead children is twofold. One is there was a tunnel that was dug beneath the dam so people could work on both sides and traverse back and forth. - That makes sense. - And also people working on this side, their children were going to school over here, so the kids had to go through it. And it was notoriously always just dark and with foot deep puddles that you had to traverse around. And there is a little bit debate whether children died in there, but there is a story about four children that died in the tunnel just by getting lost and in the darkness falling and no one finding them. - Oh my god, kind of like the catacombs. - So that's bad enough. And like I said, that's debated. But one thing that did happen. - Why wouldn't you just build a bridge instead of digging a tunnel under a dam? - Because it's 1913. - Okay. (both laughing) - When the dam was finished, there was a decision made to flood the area below the dam covering an entire city, including the town cemetery. So the people got out, but they left all the bodies. - So this is kind of like when they filmed deliverance in the early '80s, the waterfall that like Bert Reynolds went down and almost died in. They were opening up the dam and they flooded an entire valley. - Whoa. - And like that was the last time that that's on camera. - Wow. - Or the fact that in Poltergeist, they made the whole movie about having to move the bodies and then they used real skeletons in the pool scene. So it's like, and then that film became so cursed because of that. And so you know, I think that the gods were like, look, you guys were trying to make a point. Now we're gonna make it for you. - Yeah, for sure. - And so when they did that, it flooded the entire cemetery known as long cemetery. No bodies were removed. And that was where a bunch of children's bodies were buried because that was a time of polio. That's a time of all different childhood diseases. So it was a lot more rampant to have child death. And so up until the late '90s, you could still see three headstones peering out of the water 70 yards from the bank. - Really? - Yeah, so you could still see the headstones. And so everyone that goes there and know the thing that they experience is of course the auditory things, the sense of dread, but they always get touched on the face. - Yeah. - And when people have always reported being touched on their face and like either hands or things in the back of the head or things like that. - Oh thank you. - And so for some reason, the ghosts there just really want to, just really want to make a personal connection. - That's Chris. - That's Chris. - Yeah. - That's Chris's thing. That's just Chris, all the other ghosts are like, look, we don't like touching faces, but that's Chris's thing. We just don't know. - One of my favorite ghost paranormal explanations is that the spiritual realm that was encased by the body is now in another dimension. And they still want to be human. So they want it just to try to feel flesh again. But now that you see, when you go to a dam like this, especially an old dam like this, a derelict dam like this, you know that it was involved in hurting the lives of other people. Usually poor people were exploited. And so there's usually going to be a lot of bad energy and a lot of bad spirits. And that's why places like the Hales Bar Dam can be some of the scariest places you can go. - Definitely getting those vibes here guys. How about you? - Well looking at these stone tablets too, it does look like something gouged about. Something was very angry about whatever is written here. - Yeah, it's not in like really nice chiseled out handwriting. It's like stabbed in it with a knife. - It's very angry looking. This emanates in bad jus. We're just going to say, I don't like it. - Like I said, any dam is not going to be good, but an old decommissioned dam with a bunch of baby graves right over here. And by the way, we did open for baby graves in Tampa. They were really nice guys. But I could just feel it. I mean, right now I hate to say, I feel like Nick Spry. I feel like Nick Spry. - Yeah, how does it feel? How does it feel? - I don't like it. - Yeah, I just wanted to eat a bar of Xanax. - Get out of his face, man. He's obviously dealing with some stuff. - All right, he's trying to turn the favor. - He's faced a little bit. - He thrashes. - Let's take a little break and then let's get back to it. You are listening to Fort Fritz. (upbeat music) Welcome back to Fort Fritz. I am your host, Fritz. Joined as always by co-host, man daddy, Marie, Nick Spry, and Angela. - Hello. - We've just been kind of kicking up the soil here. We know we've got to get over this dam at some point, but-- - Get over this dam, dam. - Dam, dam. We have been taking the time to kind of make sure every stone is uncovered and looking for artifacts. A lot of millipedes, yeah. - Yeah, it's always good when you're in a possibly cursed place to upset as much as you can. So just move things around, muss it up and everything. That's always the best thing to do in a cursed area. - Let's see that. - Let's just try this around. - Look around. - Oh, that's a headstone. - We don't know, no, no, put that back. That's, you don't want us. - Stop kicking that over. - Oh, come on. Watch this. You ever seen someone parkour off a headstone? - Stop it. (laughing) - That was pretty good. - Oh, that was, oh, that's my-- - That's in the rhythm bay now. Jesus Christ. - Oh, that wasn't good. - That wasn't good. - It was funny though. - I know, it's worth it. I'm going to be limping for three weeks, but it's still worth it. - Let's just kind of move on from this area. - No, it's not the worst idea, that's not the worst idea. - Do you guys see this stuff hanging from the trees? It's like totems? - Oh, like those-- - What does that mean out? - On those twigs and bones? - Ooh. - Or it may not be hair, human hair? - All right. - I didn't know how to feel about this guys. - Speaking of, this does look like an entirely different cemetery. - Yeah. - I'd say, does it come as a cemetery? There's only two headstones? - Oh, yeah, it's a secondary cemetery. - Ooh. - Secondary cemetery. - An additional cemetery to the main cemetery. - Well, let me take a look at this. Both these headstones have the same loss name on them. - Whoa. - Well, I mean, is that romantic or tragic? - Yeah, they got different birth dates though. Let me see my family of some sort. - Well, maybe it's like mother, daughter, father, son. - But who would be buried here on the back 40 of Felix's property? - It's the last name for it? - And it's right at the foot of the dam. - Well, we didn't even know this dam was here. This is what going on. There's a lot hitting us right now. - Guys, there is always so much going on, okay? I do know. - But she would know better than anybody. - I do, but I forget. - Oh, it's 'cause it's like 40 of you out there experience all other things. So they've gotta all be inside your hive mind making everything confusing. - I don't always remember exactly where it is. - So why would this be of the import if two family members were buried right next to a dam? - Well, I mean, family plots are kind of a normal thing. You know what I mean? - They're like in front of a dam? - In front of a dam, that's kind of weird. That'd be like putting out like your ex-wife in a golf course. - Have you guys heard of the Tierneys and the Hoover Dam? - Ooh, I heard of the Hoover Dam, but not the Tierney. - There's more to this? - There is. - That'd be a really weird story if there wasn't. - Tell us. - The Hoover Dam is one of the seven modern engineering wonders of the world, and arguably the most well known of the four most haunted dams in the country. - Haunted. - Visitors to the dam and workers alike have reported numerous accounts of paranormal activity since the dam has been completed. It is said that the Hoover Dam holds something back more sinister than just the waters of the Colorado River. - Ooh, good boy. - Ooh, ah. - People exploring the inner tunnels of the dam have often heard whispering voices and crying in the dark. The sounds of gates creaking open and closed tend to follow people who tread through these tunnels. Individuals will hear footsteps coming up on them from behind and then turn around to no one being there. - Inside the dam? - Inside the inner tunnel of the dam. People have also reported seeing a male figure meandering about that appears to be wearing old-fashioned clothing. - Did he have a canoe? - He did not. - Oh, what's his name, Chris? (laughing) I don't think it was. - Big ups to Chris. I think we need to find out more about Chris. - Ghost hunters from all over the world have come to the dam in hopes of catching a specter on film. There have been multiple audio recordings taking of chilling disembodied voices talking in the dark and photos of shadowy human figures in empty corners. - EVP, oh yeah. - To understand why these ghostly apparitions may exist in this world, we need to go back to the beginning. Construction on the dam occurred between 1931 and 1936 in the midst of the Great Depression. It is built on the Colorado River on the board of Nevada and Arizona. The planning and land negotiations for the dam was completed by President Hoover. However, actual construction did not begin until during Franklin Roosevelt's presidency and it was originally named the Boulder Dam after the project's original name, the Boulder Canyon Project Act. It was renamed to the Hoover Dam 11 years later in 1947 by an act of Congress as it was originally President Hoover's project and to honor him as an engineer. - Yeah, that's a good idea, man. - Yeah, it's cool. - You're like, here's one of the worst presidents of the 20th century, let's name a dam about it. - Yeah, he did one good thing. - He did one good thing. - Hello, the dam. - I want naming rights to be sold to like a camping world stadium dam. - Oh, yeah. (laughing) - Yeah, let us not forget the rival dam, the Dyson Dam from the Hoover Dam. - Yeah, exactly. - The power aid dam. - The goal of this dam was at least threefold. First, it was to control flooding of the Colorado River, which happened frequently. It was disastrous to surrounding areas. - So much polar bear piss. - In addition, the dam provides a solid water supply to about 40 million people in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Mexico. - God, they need so much water. - Well, no one should have ever built towns in a desert. - It's the bill of the desert. You gotta do what you gotta do. - Palm Springs should not exist. - I'm so true. - It also provides hydroelectric power to about 1.3 million people in the area with an output of about 4 billion kilowatt hours of electricity each year. At the time, it also provided much needed jobs for those in the surrounding area and beyond. This thing is a (beep) beast. - What year is this again? - 31 to 35. - So this is during the Great Depression. So these are much needed jobs. - Very much needed jobs. - So under the new deal with Roosevelt, yeah, this was all going on. - Actually using infrastructure to help the nation. - Hmm. - Yeah, because Roosevelt, I think, was 33 to 45, I think. - J.G. Tierney was one of the surveyors working on the preliminary stages of the dam project. He drowns on December 20th, 1922, while surveying the Colorado River for an ideal spot to place the dam when a flash flood arose out of nowhere. - Oh, wow. This is, that's why they needed the dam. - This marks the very first death attributed to this initially calamitous landmark. Over 20,000 men were involved in the construction of the massive dam. - Wow. - And it is documented that 96 of them died during the work due to industrial accidents. I'm using air clips here. - Oh, yeah. - This number alone gave a person a one in 220 odds of becoming one of the ghosts that are thought to haunt the dam to this day. - The worst game of duck, duck goose terror. (laughing) - Duck, duck, dead. - Now these deaths ranged from explosions, rock slides, drowning, falls, or getting stuck or crushed by construction equipment. - A lot of that with dams. A lot of people getting crushed. - Yeah. Now, if you include the lives lost of workers involved with the dam before construction began, such as J.G. Tierney, the death toll rises to 112. - Ooh. - Now, this number does not account for those who also died during construction by heat stroke or other natural causes such as heart attack, - Sibilous. (laughing) - And junk devices. - Damn it, dude. - Really bad case of pink eye. - Poison ivy. - And encephalitis. - Heart attack, pneumonia, and other illnesses. These men number in the dozens. There's also some scandal as how, to some of these workers, died. 42 people were said to have perished due to pneumonia, but no single person directly out of the worksite ever contracted it. So it is believed that this is a cover up for a common monoxide poison. - Oh, geez. - From the trucks and equipment operating inside of enclosed area. - Oh my god, yeah. - With no ventilation. - Oh my god. - It's working. - It's like slowly, wait, I'm really kind of tired right now. - Yeah. - So miners bring, like, canaries with the downing. - Canaries, yeah. - I was just about to say, that canary hasn't sung in a long, he's just sleeping, he's been sleeping for a long time. - They actually did have devices that would save the canary, though. There was an oxygen supply, where if the canary started acting slow, they could shut it off and save the canary and everybody would get out there, and so they would save the canary. So a lot of times they did find a way to save the canary. - Thank you for that. This is where it gets even crazier. The very last recorded industrial death was that of an old 25-year-old electrician working on the finishing touches of the dam. This last casualty occurred on December 20th, 1935. - The same day? - Exactly 13 years old. - What? - It was the day that J.G. Tierney had died. - Wow. - What a break to be the guy who's like, "All right, now this last break's gotta go in and then we're all done." - No, I'm dead! - This man was Patrick Tierney. J.G. Tierney's only son. - Oh, wow. - That dam pissed off somebody. That dam pissed off some spirit and is like, "I'm gonna get your family and I'm gonna be a kid." - Does it like say how he died? Did he slip? - He fell from a pessiput, like right at the very top of the dam. He fell. - Oh, he went all the way down? - A low-relief panel by sculptor Oscar J. Hanson was dedicated in 1935 to those who gave their lives building this dam. - So this is when it was open? - Yes, it's like the same year it opens. It depicts a male figure rising up through waves. Above him is a cloud with lightning seemingly sprouting grains and vegetables. It is inscribed with, they died to make the desert bloom. - Oh, wow. - Okay, that's powerful, right? - Well, you don't like that, Angela? - Oh, no, I don't really feel like those guys really care about that. They probably just want to go back to home with their families. - Oh, that's a good point. - But if they have vegetables? - Well, it was the inspiration for cloudy with a chance of meatballs. It's cloudy with a chance of zucchini. - It brought a lot of life to the area and continues to do so to this day. So popular lore surrounding the Hoover Dam is that people were actually stuck in concrete and buried into the dam. - Once again, once again, that's why dam stuck. There's always at least three or four dead people in that dam. - However, this has been disproven. Although there is a record of people getting stuck in concrete, sometimes even up to their ankles, engineers would go to great lengths to ensure that these people, dead or alive, did not become a permanent part of the structure. - Ah, they're in there. They stopped construction to get them out. - They did. The reason behind this is actually scientific rather than compassionate. Human bodies are made of organic material that will decay and release gas over time. - Oh, yeah, we do. - Yeah, great space in the rock. If a pocket of gas like this was allowed to develop inside the concrete, it would cause structural weakness in that spot. This weak spot plus the force of the restrained water of the river and the weight of the surrounding concrete would cause large leaks and even blowouts of a section of the dam wall. - That's far from the river. - That's like, that's like, not only is it break, it's like, whoa, hey, man. - That's a little foul. - And they even went so far as to try to avoid this from happening that when concrete was being poured, they would only do it two inches at a time and only in groups so everybody can keep an eye on each other. So you went to great lengths to make sure that this was not gonna be a thing that happens with this particular dam. - Seeing people in that kind of production too, it's crazy 'cause they're wearing boots that come up to their thighs. And as soon as the concrete is poured, they're immediately trying to get it level and then they get out and then someone else tries to make it level and then they get out because you have to get out quickly and then they're just waiting for the net. You just see them like wearing those quickly as possible, like fly fishing waves. - Yeah, there's like a haters, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like a river runs into it. - Yep. (laughs) - At its highest point, it's 1232 feet. - Wow, is that above sea level or above the river? - That's just from above the river. - Jesus. - And it's about 1244 foot wide. So it is the second highest in the country and the 18th highest in the whole world. Now, even though bodies in the walls have been disproven, the death toll of the Hoover Dam continues to rise to this day. Approximately four people per year commit suicide from jumping off the top of the dam. - That voice fascinates me as the choice because I mean, suicide is a horrible thing and you're hurting more people than you can ever imagine. A lot of people that have jumped off bridges, like 98% of them, if they survive, they're like, yeah, the first, my first thought was, what am I doing? - So given all these deaths, that number in the hundreds at this point out, it is pretty easy to justify how it could be possible that there are a bunch of restless spirits wandering the inner tunnels of the Hoover Dam to this day. - That is a very powerful story. - Jesus. - It's just these giant construction projects. There's always a human toll. Having a tragic death and it's gonna be in that location. You could understand being like, yeah, we'd be pissed at that dam. - Yeah. - I'd be really mad at that dam. - I can also see why these bodies were buried away from what seems like consecrated ground with the cemetery over here and this Native American burial. So I can see the separation now, but that definitely means we need to get over the dam to get to the next side. - Over the top. - Yeah. - So we gotta climb this dam? - Damn. - It looks like the only way out though is up and over. - It's excellent. - I don't see any other way. - Oh, wait. - It's blocking the sun. - It's a (beep) - It's like an escalator. - Whoa, that'd be nice. - Angel, if you have a hot air ballooner in here somewhere. - Why would she have a random hot air ballooner? - Shut the (beep) - Oh, damn. - Damn. (beep) - Can I just talk? - I don't know. - Can I talk? - I've actually had one that's just not anywhere near here. - Okay, thank you. - Was that so bad? - I mean, I have that question. I said there was a lot of time, don't you think? - I personally assume she would have a hot air balloon. It's Angel, but I didn't think she'd have one that she could produce, like flash (beep) outfit on this rain or something. - I mean, sometimes I do that. - Marie, same question. - I do not. It looks like a (beep) - I'm gonna have to go up these stairs off to the right here. - Oh, I didn't do anything. - I didn't do anything at all. - I didn't do anything at all. - I didn't do anything at all. - I tried stairs, I tried stairs. - You want hot air balloon, he's going to ask later, I'm like, "Wow, not just some stairs." - Well, stairs are just broken escalators. - I don't know, but at least they're still doing their job. - They're still functional. - I was not gonna free solo this. - No, that would be bad. - No, absolutely not. - Man, there's a lot of stairs. - This is probably what 12 stories I would imagine. A couple hundred feet. Let's keep, no, then get some stretching. - Better start. - Here you go. Here's my back, listen to my back. - How many years? - I've got some yoga stretching in here. - Anybody want a mouth mint? - Oh yeah. - You know what I mean? Is there any other type of mint? - Come on. - What are you talking about? - What are you talking about? - What are you talking about? - What are you talking about? - What are you talking about? - Where do you normally put your mints? Is what I'm wondering? - You'll thank me later. - The winter green is burning my retina. - Look what you did to spry. - All right, we're gonna take a little break. It might take longer than usual.

No. - All right, so let's get this. - You need to sway. - Look, it just looks like a lot of water decimated what's in front of us right now. There's a canyon, a chasm. It's trenches, tranches. - Tranches and trenches and canyons and caverns. - Yeah. - That's like a game of shoots and ladders up here on the other side. - Well, I've never played it. Is it pretty good? I've heard good things. - Nats, is it Xbox? - Yeah, there's a lot of ladders and there's some shoots. That's about it. - Well, this reminds me a lot, catastrophic failure actually. - Can we go somewhere that doesn't remind one of us of a horrible thing? I mean, we have gone so many places. Every time we see someone's like, "Hey, man, here's something horrible that happened there." - Maybe they look around. Look at all the shores here. There's all of these, like, houses have to, like, they look like they've been rendered asunder, like, torn apart. - This is absolutely a whole settlement here that was just-- - Rendered asunder. - Rendered asunder. - I don't even know if that's proper grammar, but-- - It is. I love the term "rendered asunder." Not that things are rendered asunder nowadays. - There's a name called it. - Twisted Pipes and Foundations ripped from the very earth itself. - It's really heavy here. - It's really heavy here. - This reminds me of a story. Have you guys heard of the happy, fuzzy, bunny dance? - No. - No. - No. - No. - What are you saying? - What are you saying to? - What's that mean? - Trilly? - No. - Trilly's even confused by that. Trilly's even confused like, "Is he making a joke?" - It's actually degraded. - All right. Well, I do have a plan B here. - Okay. - So that's fine. Have you guys heard of the St. Francis Dam? Oh, that works. - There we go. There we go. There we go. - With Jet Story now. - Yeah, okay. So the best way to start this story is to give a little backstory. In 1781-- - Oh, wow. - In 1781, the Spanish brook ground on a small settlement of 11 families. Its name was, "O pueblo de nuestros en nore la reina de los angeles." In a month, an aqueduct was dug into the earth to supply fresh water from a local river. The town would be known, of course, as Los Angeles as early as the 1830s. As the area bloomed from 11 families into a thriving city, overuse of the natural aquifers and rivers meant less water to go around for farms and residential use. - Surprise, surprise. - So Los Angeles had a very dire problem quickly, not enough or zero water during droughts or the opposite, atmospheric rivers that inundate the soil and make absorption impossible leading to floods. - So still a lot of the former, not much of the latter. - Exactly. William Mahaland, you've heard his name, Mahaland Drive, Mahaland Highway. William Mahaland was working in the Los Angeles Water Department and he had extensive knowledge on irrigation after overseeing the first iron water pipeline in 1880. However, the population skyrocketed from 50,000 in 1890 to 320,000 in 20 years. The city began to look to the Sierra Nevada mountains. Mahaland was a pointed chief engineer and the plan was to purchase land and slash ore steel through underhanded shady means Owens River in the Owens Valley. - Ooh. - I love that that's, you know, and/or slash steel. - It's got a river, it's got a gray area. - Wink, wink written in the plans. The Los Angeles aqueduct, which was the result of this, opened in 1913, a sprawling gravity fed aqueduct that literally descended 233 miles to the city of Los Angeles, from the Owens River Valley, taking all of the water from Owens Lake and River and completely devastating the farmers and livestock of Owens Valley. - Wow. - The same water used by the Paiute Indians for over a thousand years to grow their families crop, now watered lawns in Southern California. Since being bone dry for over a century, Owens Lake is the number one source of dust pollution in the US, but who cares? As William Mahaland himself would say over and over again, like a boomer dad, "If you don't get the water, you won't need it." - Whoa. - What a f*ck's up thing to say. - That's 'cause you'll die. - Yeah. - 'Cause you'll be bad, you'll be fine. - Yeah, he said that in actual love. - Yeah. I just let this whole like, this like, unawareness of like, "Hey, we live in a place that probably we shouldn't live because it doesn't have natural water coming to it." - But it's fine. It's fine. It's totally fine. - Well, we do. - You're absolutely correct, Angela, in saying that. So, well, now that Angelinos know that they can do whatever the f*ck they want and practically so when he-- - No relation. - And the Cascades, he was a god in LA. He goes, "There it is, Mr. Mayor, and after Paul's, take it." - From my cold, dead hands. - Wouldn't you feel like a god in that moment? - Yeah, exactly. - That's like when Tony Stark holds up his arms and all the explosions happen behind him and just like, "I am god, I am you." - Yeah, exactly. Well, now that Angelinos know that they can do whatever the f*ck they want and practically play God, the 50-year water source was readily depleted in 10 years. - Wow. - Shocker. - And still, droughts and floods were a major problem. So was the population boom, which was now over in just 10 years from 320,000, 570,000 people in 1920. - Wow. - So in 30 years, it went from 50 to 570,000 people. So the solution was to build a dam to store water during wet seasons to use for lean years, right? Like, pay in the barn. And the first one was the L.A. Dam, now known as Mulholland Dam, overlooking the city. The second would be a much larger dam located 40 miles away in San Francisco Canyon. This would be known as the St. Francis Dam, back in Owens Valley. The migrant workers, indigenous people, farmers and business owners didn't take lightly to being choked off their land by a heartless, megalopolis, hundreds of miles away. Vigilantes and freedom fighters routinely dynamited and destroyed large sections of the aqueduct as righteous acts of retribution. - Wow. - Because of-- - Was this self-hatred? My goodness. - Well, no, no. Think about-- - They don't have that water anymore. - Great. - Remember the big stink about the Alaskan pipeline and all that? - Or the Keystone pipeline. - Yeah. - Because of this war to rights over water, many L.A. newspapers didn't publicly cover the building of the St. Francis Dam out of security concerns. - Really? - Really? - This would prove to be fatal. Surveying began in 1922 and Mulholland found a natural narrowing. He found to be a suitable location for the large gravity dam. So a gravity dam, the gravity dam is designed, it's a straight wall and that's the first piece of concrete, kind of like driven into the ground, and then underneath that, based on mathematical calculations, you would do maybe two and a half inches lower, you would do another straight vertical wall. So each wall is independent. And then you would just continue doing that so you have a, like, isosceles triangle going down. - So it's almost like a mini system of locks in the canal? - Yes. And the base of it would be like there's no way water's getting out of it. One side of the canyon consisted of conglomerate and sandstone. - A bunch of failed businesses all put together. - Yeah, exactly, yeah. - Under one of like shell corporations, yeah. While the other side was mica, schist, and talc, that is where you have thin slats of rock overlaying, thin slats of rock. After extensive testing, there was no reason to believe the site was not suitable for building. So one half of the dam is a completely different geological sandstone from the other half. Okay, so one side is different than the other side. So while the St. Francis Dam was being built, by all accounts, Mohaland was distracted with a bigger project and the following quote is from the documentary "Flood in the Desert." Even as the biggest dam he'd ever built was rising in the San Francis Ito Canyon, Mohaland was on the road for weeks at a time, mapping out routes for a Colorado River aqueduct and lobbying in Sacramento and Washington. He was looking at plans, the eventual site of the Hoover Dam. So as this dam was being built, Mohaland had free rain as the city's savior, he brought water into LA and he was calling audibles. During construction, the dam was raised 10 feet higher to presumably store more water. And once again, a further 10 feet was added while work had already begun on the project, bringing the final height of the dam to 185 feet above the canyon floor, 1,835 feet above sea level. But while the height was increased, the base was never widened, so based on that mathematical formula of how many inches... Can you get a follow-up physics here? Oh no, I get this a lot, because I have a somewhat taller gentleman. I have very small feet. Yeah? I fall over. A lot. St. Francis Dam opened on March 12th, 1926 and would be filled for the next two years. That's it? That's it. It's a good run. Two vertical cracks. Let's go, guys. Let's go, man. Two vertical cracks appeared on the face of the dam within months, about 58 feet long. Wow. That's not a little crack. Yeah. But were deemed to be natural with the dam that size. What? Again, this was 1926. No! That's what happened. It was also seepage under the abutment, and late in 1927, a fracture was noticed, starting from the west abutment and traveling diagonally upwards into the center. This was filled, as with all the other cracks, with oakum, which is another massive mistake, because sealing with oakum would have been placed all of the pressure internally on the concrete. It was fracturing to set. So maybe you'd go out more. Are you sure it wasn't filled with oakum? It turned out to be oakum. Cracks and leakage were found after an 8-inch spillway was added to the center of the upstream face. So that's where, you know, the water comes out, and then, like, the idea is to let a little bit of water out to then make the abutment heavier, so there is no seepage. And more pressure. But this was only done to the center of the dam, and not to the right and left. The Hoover Dam has four the entire width of the base to hold the abutment in place to the bottom of the Colorado River. This was just right in the center. This may have contributed to upswell, where the foundation is dislodged. On March 12th, the damkeeper, Tony Harnish figure, alerted Mohal into a new leak in the western abutment. He lived about a quarter of a mile away on the downriver side, so the drier side, obviously, is not living on the lake. He and Mohal personally inspected the dam with another man, Van Norman, for over two hours and determined that corrective measures would need to be taken at some time in the future. The face of the dam was now tilting forward a half of a degree from the pressure of over 12 billion gallons of water. Wow! A two-hour investigation for a dam that large, though, means that obviously there was something wrong right away, and they're like, oh, that's going to kill everybody. Big crack there. Big crack there. We all know Lake Calerny and Winter Park. Yeah. This would be the equivalent of 12 Lake Calerny's. Wow! Mohal and returned to LA, which is at 10 a.m., 12 hours later, his career and reputation would be forever ruined. The lights of Los Angeles flickered and went out before quickly being restored a few minutes before midnight on March 12, 1928. Mohaland was asleep and, therefore, was unaware the St. Francis Dam had catastrophically failed, and because the construction of the dam was intentionally marginalized in the press, thousands of residents would be caught completely off guard. They never reported on it. They wanted to keep it out of the press and now have people afraid. It was on, like, page 6, 100-word article. By the way, you could die from catastrophic failure, but don't worry about it, go shopping. This dam is sponsored by Boeing. A 140-foot wall of water surged forth as the concrete puckeled and tore away from the canyon due to a landslide on the water saturated eastern abutment. Five minutes later, the wall of water was 120 feet high and traveling at 18 miles per hour. It is. Power plant number 2, a massive concrete structure, was located a mile downstream and completely level, killing 64 of its 67 workers and nearby family members, as they lived in this canyon. The water continued unabated, and by one o'clock, the 55-foot high crest collided with the Santa Clara River, partially destroying Southern California Edison's saw gusts substation and let the entire Santa Clara River Valley in parts of Ventura and Oxner without power. Raymond Starberg, a worker at the plant, is able to escape and makes the first phone call about the emergency. This is at around 1 a.m., I believe. Over four miles of what is now Interstate 5 are underwater as the town at Kastape Junction is swept away entirely. At Camp, a temporary camp housing at least 150 Edison company linemen, night watchman Ed Lock sees a rush of water at approximately 12 miles per hour and rushes to alert the sleeping men. Some are able to button their tents, successfully floating over the flood waters. However, the waters hit a geological outcropping called Blue Cut, doubles back over the area, creating a whirlpool. 84 workers perish, including the hero Ed Lock. I am a lineman for the car honk. At around 1.30 a.m., telephone operator Luis Geit gets a call from the chief of Pacific long distance telephone company informing her of the news. In fact, an hour and a half later, Geit calls California Highway Patrolmen Portland Edwards and Stanley Baker, and they proceed to ride on their motorcycles around Santa Paula, alerting residents for an hour and a half. Geit, thank you for saying that, Geit then called the residents in the area to evacuate. Not her job to do that, she was calling every line in the area to tell people to run spread the news. Wait, wait, this massive body water is traveling at only 12 miles an hour? Starting off at 18, that's crazy. It will do speed over time, that makes sense. It seems slow now, but when you realize it's a huge devastating force coming for you, it's like, "What you could be a little slower?" Especially when you're not expecting it. It's also 12 billion gallons of water. Yeah, a lot of wet, a lot of wet. And that's a lot of force, and water does what it's going to do. At 2.30 in the morning, Mulholland is awakened to a telephone call. He repeatedly says on the phone, "Please, God, don't let people be killed." He arrived to the scene of death and destruction shortly afterwards, around 2.40. By 5.30 in the morning, the waters carrying debris and corpses had entered into the Pacific Ocean over 50 miles away in your Ventura at Montalvo. The water stretched over two miles wide, and we're still traveling five and a half hours later at six miles per hour. Won't stop, can't stop, won't stop, can't stop, won't stop. Some bodies are recovered, and many more are not. The official death toll stands at 431, though this is a conservative estimate, because no one knows exactly how many migrant families or workers might have been in the surrounding areas that night. It's listed as the worst American civil engineering disaster, and the third largest loss of life in the history of California. Wow. A coroner's inquest quickly released a 79-page report five days later, and families were given $5,000 for each fatality. The report found geologic inconsistencies seeking to shield most of the blame from the man who brought water to Los Angeles. Mulholland placed all the blame on himself. He is quoted as saying at the trial, "The only people I envy in this whole thing are the dead." Wow. Dang. Wow. So the trial, the inquest, was he brought up on criminal charges? Man's slaughter. Okay. So was it like first or third degree? What is it when you... Probably manslaughter. Yeah. It's negligible. Man's slaughter is basically like, "I didn't mean to kill him, I just didn't know but I'm still a dick." He was found not guilty. He withdrew from public life and remained isolated, occasionally giving insight and advice. The St. Francis Dame would haunt him for the rest of his life. Angelenos honored him by naming several things after him. Modern assessment notes a paleolithic landslide on the eastern abutment that Mulholland would not have been able to account for in 1926. Mm-hmm. So this ancient landslide, there's an inactive fault there, it wasn't going to be very tenable. However, this is the modern assessment, Mulholland was personally responsible for twice raising the height of the dam, not widening the base after, and not accounting for hydraulic lift, which they would have known about by 1912 at least. Screw physics. Screw physics. As important. As for Mulholland Dam, which was the first dam that he built, which sits overlooking Hollywood, where millions of people live and work, the city worked to pack as much earth and rock as possible over the face of the dam in anticipation of any future failure. That legacy of Mulholland's was buried by the city of Los Angeles in an act of penance and forgetting. Mm-hmm. While in the city of Santa Paula, a bronze sculpture now stands called The Warning, it shows officers Edwards and Bakers selfless acts of notifying residents on their motorcycles, immortalized forever in an act of gratitude and remembrance. Yeah, we can ignore the fact that this may destroy us again, and if there's happens to be a giant earthquake in California, which never happens. Well, terrifying is that the first day he looked is right next to the Hollywood sign. You're like, "Ah!" And knowing how catastrophic of a failure the second one was, can you imagine living underneath that original one? So here's the thing. It's been lowered to a third of its capacity ever since, really. Just to compensate for the physics. They don't trust it. And with good reason. That was the first one he did. And there's been a lot of weird earthquakes happening in different areas. I mean, smaller ones, but it's still happening a lot. And so with the San Andreas Fault, there's always that prediction, and then you also have the Yellowstone Supervolcano. Oh, yeah. So there's all these little things. That's fun. It could still be coming. Yep. Well, you know what, I think we could probably, because of the gravity dam, kind of looks like you could kind of jump down. It's like a weird staircase. It looks like the most painful water ride ever. Like, just go do do do do do do with your butt going all the way down. But can we just say this? Well, I mean, you could use your feet, and that would probably be a lot better. Have you seen my butt? Like walking down stairs or maybe? I mean, my feet are mighty, but my butt is my deer. So I might just ride down on my acid. That's okay. I'm gonna pop up my bat and ride me down like being on a beanbag chair. That's fine with me. I'm not that bad. That's fun. Shotgun. You got it? You ready? Jack Nick? Let's go. Okay. Okay. One, two, help. And slow. I'm not going to shoot you. I'm not going to shoot you. And that time we just walked down, so thank you. Why? Well, you should have tried this. It's amazing. You missed out. It's actually easier. You guys are going to have a **** up back for it. Really? I didn't have it already. Have you met me? God. Is there a gift shop where you can see your reactions? Oh, have you seen it? In your photo? I have a whole video. Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa. What? They're around. They're arounding. You know, obviously milk. Are you talking about like the milkweed? The sauvia over here. Ooh, sauvia. We can stroke that. There you go. I have five. Five, five, four, three, four, three, four, three, four, three, four, three, four, three. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can get drunk off that, I think. Oh, cool. No, I hear rustling. Guys, yes. Do you see that? There's, there's some movement over there. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Guys, there's horses. There's horses. We can kill horses, right? Wow, no, no. No, no, no. No, wait a minute, ride a man. Like a stable. Let's hop on. Like a stable, the last thing I've been. We just got to steal these horses. Yes. Walk out to them and I'll put your hand under. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Careful, can you do it? You do it? It's biting my hand a little bit. That's okay. Careful. It's taking one of my fingers, but it's okay. Good boy, good boy, good. I'm pulling back. They're not that bad. They're not bad. Oh, that's fine. Oh, I hope not. You're gonna be this. Why would a stable have five horses? At varying heights. Thank you very much. And saddles. Here's a pony. Be here with native and non-indimic plants. Angela, I'm gonna eat you on this one. Is this something? I was a part of it, but I don't really remember a lot of these decisions. Guys, there was a treasure chest here. Hold on, let's... Why did you just bring out the treasure chest? Come on. We didn't check out that from. There's swords. Swords? Angela. Yeah. Did you put swords here? At some point, yeah. Oh, look. That's a most... I'm down to tell her. I need size. I wanna be... If you're gonna be done to tell her you're Raphael, I want size. Oh, look at this little horse. He's coming over to me. What's your name? A little fella? Oh, that's a... That's a... That's a girl horse. Guys, I found... Look, there's a closet over here. Ooh. There's some sweet... F***ing dusters in here. Yeah. Look at this leather. Look, I kneel from the matrix. Ooh. That definitely took them three pills. Okay. Ooh. You're pretty nasty. I like this. Hey, guys, look at me. I'm an incel on Reddit. Whoa, whoa. Women are evil. I'm Jordan Peterson. Hey! Oh yeah, I've left the matrix. I don't eat bees. By buying a Ferrari. And salt and water. I have a cake. Oh, that's very... Yeah. Very vibrant. This one's bright red. I wanna take this one. Nice. I got a rock. Oh. What's that? What? Oh, it sounds like... No, that's not... Bertrand. That's like... Is that a car backfiring? No, no, no, no, no. It sounds like guns. That's rapid fire. Yeah, that's a lot of guns. That's one of the one guns. All right, everybody. Hop on your steeds. Let's go. We're doing this thing. Do it. Get an image of the horse the last minute. Get the fence. Look. Your leg over, man, daddy. Wait, hold on. Hold on. Over. I'm facing the wrong way. I'm facing the wrong way. Turn around. No, no, no. Just hold on tight. I'm just gonna grab the reins. This way, behind my back. I trust the horse. My horse is sweet. I'm gonna call him boots. Yeah. My horse is called Juni Mitchell the horse. My horse's name is Alan. Alan. Yeah. E-ray. An A. Boot. Yeah. There's more gunshots. Guys. Guys. Follow me. Let's see. Right. Gunshots. We could go wrong. Let's ride towards gunshots. All I'm saying is horse ass and tail going forward. This could be great. I'm gonna grab an arm full of these weapons as we go into the unknown. Give me a sword. Give me a sword. Hey, daddy, did you not take any weapons from the chest? I asked for swords and I never got swords. You didn't take them? I asked for swords. All right. Stop. Let's go back. Here's a hopper. Let's go back for me. I don't even know how to turn them. I'm going. All right. All right. Stop. Stop. Stop. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go. More gunshots. Give me some. I'm gonna go. Give me some. I'm gonna go. Give me some. I'm gonna go. Give me some. I'm gonna go. He's raising a barn. All right. Everyone good? Everyone have anything? Yes. I think so. Don't wait. I gotta go pee real quick. Sorry. There are no boxes here. All right. I'll be ready in a second. I'm ready. Go. My horse is good. Let's go. Got my chicks. Let's go. Here we go. Moving on. There we go. Now we're rolling. Whoa. This is a huge bend in the river here. This looks like a dog leg to the right. I should have gone bareback. This is really her uncle. That's what she said. Dust cloud off in the distance. Looks like there's like, I don't know. It's either like 100 pig pens from peanuts conic strips in the distance or they're just kicking up a lot of dirt. All right. More gunshots. More gunshots. This is not good. I mean, but we're still going towards it. So let's just go towards violence. Why don't you let us scream now. All right. Thank you. Those are definitely people. Never been a fan. That sounds like a large group of zombies. What? How do you know? Look at them. Look at them. Look at them. They're walking and there's a whole bunch of them and stuff and there's a bunch of them and they look old. They're coming over here. No, no, no. We should see their survivors. Guys, we've got to help out here. We've already seen baby graves. Not the band. Oh, there's such good guys. We've seen plenty of life lost around the stand. We've got to help out whoever is down here. That might be alive and need help. Ah, we got horses and we got swords and they look like zombies in their old man. Come on, let's just do this. I agree. It's a problem. Thank you. So the problem is to ride into a group of people we don't know and commit mass atrocities. They're not atrocities if they're, you know, need to be done. Check it out. We're just curious. Let's just listen to what's going on. I've got swords. I've got two swords. You didn't have to convince me to kill people, me and daddy. I'm just saying. I was trying to have someone talk me off the cliff and no one has made an argument. Call the void, baby. Let's go. All right, let's go. All right, ready your swords. How did I enter for the f*ck? I got a ball. I got a knee in my man. Hold on. I got a few. I can't wait to hear that sound. I can't wait to hear that. Go. I'm in the pump of this chainsaw. Come on, man. Oh, he's got all the evil dead. Wait. Well done. More shots. Oh, the crowd is walking away from us now. They are hitting us. They are hitting us. They're spraying us. We're hitting us. We're hitting us. Yeah. Right. Right. He's by the thing. He's gone. Oh my God. All right, guys. We're going to move us. Let's head into this unknown forces. Oh, no, Rob. You are listening to Port Fritz with your own Fritz. I'm going to decapitate. That's always going to us, man, Daddy. I'm going to kill so many random people. Marie? How am I going to hurt anybody with a f*ck? It's a ball rocket. You've got to want it. I'm next, right? And we have Angela. I'm going to dead at everybody. We'll see you next time. Bye! Bye! I'm still going to kill all of them. Bye! Bye! [Music]
