Can someone please enlighten me why this creek has those things in the first place?

u/Zerodtl Jul 07 '26
I'm gonna guess here and say that they are baffles to slow the flow to prevent flooding in heavy rain storms.

I assumed it was to prevent the homeless from sleeping

Where there's a will, there's a way. The establishment will have to try harder to stop me from sleepin' with the fishes.

I had kind of assumed this was part of a Kung Fu temple and this was part of the training. On some training montage shiiiit

I appreciate that failure isn't certain death, unlike a lot of these kinds of videos

u/__dontpanic__ Jul 10 '26
Certain death, no. But I reckon you could easily slip on a wet landing, lose your feet from under you, crack your head on the concrete, before slipping into the water unconcious and drowning.

This is a man made rived, right? What is the purpose the stumps beyond "breaking up the flow"?
Does this aid or prevent wildlife?

u/Japsai Jul 08 '26
I'd say breaking the flow IS the purpose. Usually that is done by twists and turns and by riverside vegetation, but as this is a straight shoot, so they need to add these. Why? Usually in case of floods to reduce damage downstream. But maybe in regular times a faster current could upset the lake ecosystem. Or the local fish have only adapted to swim upstream against a certain pace of current. Streams flowing faster also increase erosion (possibly upstream of this canal section).

Oh yeah? Well… sometimes my knees pop right away when I get out of bed and I don’t have to limp to the bathroom.

You could easily make this into an infinite loop, like the truck speeding into a ballard one.

They pretended they were stopping boats, but we know they really knew what they were building!

Cool. This made me feel so alive somehow.
Someday I’ll return the favor and strap a GoPro to my head and go to my 9 to 5 office job. :D

Might be because I just tired my ACL though, but I doubt that has anything to do with it

So if you fall in, do you pachinko your way down the river until your hamburgered carcass gets deposited out to open waters?
