And away they Go

Drums_McBashington said he recalled that the original had sound and there was a big splash...

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: I hope that the water was deep!

@bigintol03: Are you any good at getting videos... Youtube has extinguished and deleted so many GREAT channels - that a lot of brilliant stuff - just does not exist online any more... Can you find downloader for this or find it anywhere else on the net.... https://licensing.screenocean.com/r/133579

Equinox - sold their works to BBC and USA and the video was available under different names in different countries, AND Equinox, the Youtube channel is just a few half baked videos... that is all that is left. Even records of the old Equinox company / film production etc.. have vanished into almost nothing..... They made some really GREAT documentaries... Kind of intelligent / kind of scientific and great stories told by brilliant people who understood what they were talking about...

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Shane, I'm so computer illiterate that I'm lucky I can read my own emails!!!

@bigintol03: You can choose to sit on your arse, or you can choose to develope the skills to find and procure / rescue old records that are about to disappear forever....

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Excellent point!

@bigintol03: When you say this, "I'm so computer illiterate that I'm lucky I can read my own emails" - it sounds just like a woman who says, "But I don't know how to cook"...... It does not earn you respect and it does not get the job done... I have had a fairly hard look for the OLD Equinox videos... But not a very very deep and long search for them... Yandex and then here is a list of all their episodes... https://web.archive.org/web/20....120928033358/http://

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: You're right, I can't argue, it's just a total lack of trying on my end!

@bigintol03: I mean you don't have to - have to anything.... As my old scumbag junkie dealer once said about me hating on the normies that lead clueless insulated lives, "If they don't want to , they don't have too, it's their perogative"...... She obviously didn;'t get the point about people being so fucking gutless and lacking in courage and spirit and an attitude of go forth and get or create and do something useful... vs. being dumb fucks who watch "Neighbours" and go to school and go to university etc.. and never do things like put out the bush fires that they accidentally started... because the cunts only ever dine at the McDonalds drive through, instead of going out in to the bush and catch yabbies (small lobsters with claws) and cook them up and eat them... It wasn't the fact that you didnt want to look this stuff up, it was the fact that you used this "shit can it" excuse to dump the opportunity... The people in the Equinox film company made tons of really fucking brilliant documentaries - and they and all their great productions have just "gone" - seemingly forever..... and I am pretty good at searching - unless I can find it in under 2 hours, it probably doesn't even exist any more...... Most disappointed.

@bigintol03: It's in this compilation. Can't hear it, but you'll see it well enough. https://crazyshit.com/cnt/medi....as/163445-20-people-

There's a splash in the original, if memory serves. It was almost disappointing.

@Drums_McBashington: Yeah they didn't freak out as if there was a long drop and a scream and a bang or two and silence...... I have never seen the original.... I kind of expected a big splash like 10 meters down.... IT was more like, "Yaa right? Yeah OK we will throw you down a rope!"...

@Drums_McBashington: Have you seen this? Oh Great Sage? The Most Dangerous River in THE WORLD is HOW DEEP?! The Strid at Bolton Abbey https://www.mgtow.tv/v/LKJluo ------ Truly horrifing....

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Yep, saw it on crazy shit or ync or both. Maybe one of the others.

@Drums_McBashington: ARE you an adventurous sort? Sort of Butch and He-Man and Tally Ho - Eh What..... I figured out how to "Do the Strid" along the bottom.... The river is wide and kind of deep - think horizntal... then it twists to being narrow and very very deep..... think vertical.... The river also varies between very low levels and high levels - "seasonally" - as well are going from low levels to high levels when there is a HUGE amount of rain in the catchment....... AND where everyone I know of has fucked up is approaching it from the start and going, "Oh my god! It gets so deep and it sucks everyone UNDER - - deep under water, into caves and ledges and all that... What I just figured out is that when the end of the deep and vertical goes back to wide and shallow, is that when the seasonal flow is at it's lowest = depth (marginally) and flow rate (huge drop in velocity), one ought to be able to dive in the DOWN STREAM end of it and then slowly go up stream - think being blow out, instead of being sucked in.... and when the water velocity IF it gets high enough, one ought to be able to maybe grab a thick rope with a weight, that has been floated in from upstream and get towed up stream or clutch onto some cast iron weights and crawl upstream against the flow.... and perhaps NOT make the entire length of the slotted bit - but to at least get some way into the deeper parts of the vertical bit... just upstream some... of the wide flat bit... Sort of back dooring the strid as it were.... https://my84101-gms-equipment-....sdn-bhd.contact.page

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Many adventures in my past, some in nature, most in urban settings. Watched that vid you popped up there. 65m deep at that one spot. It's a cave full of water. Probably bones down there.

@Drums_McBashington: Turns out that people have dived "Th` Strid" and they reckon it's about 12 meters deep at the most.... Proper divers with all the kit. Aparently it was banned by the property owners in the 70's and the guy Jack o Crack - he redid his tests.. and came to about 25 meters.... There has been some bunking and debunking and more to the story than I initially came across.... But I contacted the property managers / owners of "Th` Strid" and shared my resplendant idea with them... ... The general idea was that much like storm water drains, it's better to do things around the out fall, than it is to get sucked into the entrance of the tunnel... I asked them to share my idea with the groups that would be interested in safely and sanely doing a back of "Th` Strid" dive... I will see what they say.
