Ok, you’re driving to work. Not only does a storm sewer explode on the road to work, but you crash into the manhole cover. You get out of the vehicle to inspect the damage, and it just gets worse from there. Push play or go to Live Leak(no pun intended).

At least a few cars stopped to see if the fellow was alright.
I saw something like that here a few years back; we had a day with torrential rainstorms (something like 5 inches in a couple of hours) and on my drive home there were two spots where water was gushing out of manholes with the covers dancing on top of the fountains. Much smaller scale of course, but it was impressive!
All in all, a pretty bad start to the day.
Bryan Says:
I wonder causes pressure to build up like that in a storm sewer. It’s not as if there’s methane buildup over time like you’d get with raw sewage.
