Britain's most entertaining IQ test.

None of them ever seem disappointed. Almost like they drove in because they want some drama in their life. It would be interesting to research the psychology behind this.

"I've wrote one off already in here". Well done mate, you're a genius.

The water doesn't look that deep , it only comes half way up that duck !!!!😂😂 F

Take it slow, guys! It's surprising how many of the larger vehicles don't make it through simply because the drivers are going too fast. They have enough height clearance, but the excessive speed forces the water high enough to reach the intake

You can call me a miserable old git all you like, but these videos are so much more tranquil and therapeutic without the screaming children in the background...

As a Florida resident in hurricane country i learned to seal a distributor, spark plug wires and vents for submarine driving. I had a 66 Chevy Belair wagon that could drive through any flooded road. The thing would slice though foot deep water like a swamp buggy at 35 mph throwing rooster tails 20 feet high.

When you see 20 broken down vehicles near a body of water, you might not want to cross

It’s crazy to me how nobody seems to understand how water fording works, faster does not equal better

Funny how people are more concerned about their shoes and pants getting wet afterwards, rather than the expensive vehicle getting ruined before charging into a flooded river. 🤣🤣🤣

Tesla said “Good Morning!” 😂😂

These videos offer a bizarre spectacle of communal indifference and personal misfortune, encapsulated in moments of both humor and tragedy.

I would love to be the local mechanic in this area. This ford is like a money-printing machine!

I don’t know why KZfaq delivered these vídeos to me, here in Brazil… But now, I can’t stop watching them. Please keep recording it. Thank you

Its amazing how they are interested in whats under the bonnet after and not before they go into the flood.

It shows how many people have no clue about the basics of how an engine work

Driver: I thought you said it was only a couple of inches deep? Local: Water only comes half way up our ducks.

If you see a bunch of people standing around filming you go through a water crossing, it probably isn't the best idea to go through it lmao. Really surprised the Miata made it through unscathed

That duck swimming by was just insult to injury. He was definitely judging the driver.

im in favour of re-testing drivers every 5 years after watching this! lol

The image of a delivery driver wearing a high-visibility tabard whilst his van is broken down in at least a foot of muddy water is a beautiful, succinct summary of Modern Britain.

9:23 the little mx5 miata goes through that water like a boss.

Its nice to see jolly ol' England has geniuses too! 🤣

I'd love to know how well the door seals kept out the water. They're designed to keep rain out, not full submersion.

Imagine writing off a car and not learning to do it again. More money than sense. What a pillock.

First bloke ‘this is the 2nd car I’ve done, wrote one off here already’ Brains of a fresh cow pat. Thick as mince

What people seem not to understand is that, their gas engines compress air, but water can not be compressed. If your air intake is low then the engine sucks in water and you will destroy your engine by bending the piston rods.

Lol @ the van quickly trying to get around the corner out of embarrassment.

Watching that smoke change from black to white at 4:10 was joyous! Either your engine is humped or there is a new pope!🤣

Imagine destroying your car and being immediately met with British banter. 10/10

Man this is so gratifying to see who made it and who didn't. Thanks for sharing it!

Я ждал, что может сегодня кому-нибудь хватит ума задним ходом проехать эту лужу

The look of surprise on every face as their cars stop is amazing, even more amazing as like the first bloke says "I've already written off a car here!!!" Doesn't anyone ever stop, look at it and turn round rather than go through!!!

Happy to see the guy in the blue landrover finally got his

Tesla burns down house later that evening... LOL

As long as the electrical is sealed and the car isn't buoyant (so it floats off the roadway), electric cars should go through just fine. Those heavy batteries in ECs can only help in these situations.

Loved the Tesla and the Hummer in this episode

RUFFORD:- An intellectual wilderness with a large population of lemmings…

Its the video i never knew i needed in my life.. thanks yt algoritim.

Duck saying that you are quackers lol

Ford focus @09:45 shows perfect technique, good speed, great bow wave, no water over the bonnet.

Bravo to the guys who rescued the fish. That water is really deep now!

The duck was totally mastering it.

11:53 when you know it’s about to get serious 😂 runnnnnn b runnnn 😂 but at the end Duck 🦆 was the winner the best performance 😂

It’s amazing how the drivers laugh/smile as they realise what they’ve done. Unbelievable!

"Ive written one off in here already" Good to see the British education system is working well

Lesson 1(here in Germany, at least): If you drive through a water passage, check the depth ! Lesson 2: Drive slowly!

Everyone seemed unmindful why there are people with smartphones and cameras hanging around at the spot probably waiting for potential "fail" content.

The fact that you got 136 parts out of this before someone even put a sign up let alone do something about this problem is astounding...

Imagine being the person who writes a car off in a ford that is highly notorious for killing cars, and then driving up to a deep ford in another car and thinking “ah it’ll be okay”.🤣😂

The best way to cross this flooded Ford is to drive across in reverse, so you don't flood the engine compartment. Very entertaining video.

Top notch delivery effort there… I doubt the insurance covers driving wilfully into water.

This is the second car I've done, The Audi driver says proudly.

Even the mallard had to come down and laugh at the madness.

Love your vids great entertainment brilliant

This is aimed at the people who are as thick as mince.. Vehicles, just like humans need to breath. They breath in through the air intake, which is normally situated behind the panel at the front of the car where the bonnet catch sits. And they breath out through the exhaust pipe. If humans breath lots of water in they drown, then you are dead.. If vehicles breath lots of water in they also drown, and your engine dies, and I don't mean just stops. They die because your engine is wrecked.

I'm amazed that MX5 made it out and kept going

8:48 I love how people stand next to tow straps under tension. Have they never heard of snap-back zones?

The Hummer said, "I don't know what all the fuss is about". Merica!

5:35 Tesla does just fine.

That Model 3 handled the water like a champ.

Not a Rocket scientist that one!!!!

These people definitely have brains made of minced pie unbelievable 😂😂

When you see a bunch of locals pointing a flashlight at you and filming you as you approach a flooded road it might be a good idea to make a U-turn.

And I repeat, I can't believe the MX-5 made it.

This is what happens when people don't use their brains and forget that all engines suck in the air needed for combustion from the lower part of the body, just above the edge of the bumper. Bravo for your intelligence

That's just the way it is...most people can be driving for 40 years but will have absolutely no clue about the air intake and how the engine will die if you flood it with water

Surprised so many got through the flood. I love seeing the falls at the end. You could make one of those "Sleep or Relax" waterfall type videos with those. Thank you, Tom!

I love the way drivers give us an evening performance. A lovely night out for all sorts of people, and then a light supper and bed.

That really wound me up when the VW driver thrown out cling film into the water! Bloody shite! Typical litterbug……😡

Amazing how so many people are risking such expensive vehicles for fun (especially Sprinter and trucks with someone’s cargo inside). I was at this spot 2 years ago and i didnt dare to drive into the water

I'm shocked the Miata made it through , and the number of Fords that didn't dissolve.

Ah yes, all conrods need to straighten themselves is a good solid revving, as demonstrated by the clownshoe (s) in the landrover.

IMO, the Ford at 9:57 had the best technique which is to go slow, keep the wave in front of you low and keep it from going to high and over the hood. This crossing is long enough so that momentum will not get you across as most people using momentum only got 3/4 of the way across. For a shorter crossing momentum might get you across but you will still have a higher risk of your motor ingesting the water. Unless you absolutely have to I do not recommend going across a water crossing like this as you may have some water penetration into all kinds of things like electrical connections, bearings, differentials (especially if the vent hose is low, cracked, or missing), the transmission, etc that you may not notice until you start having problems later. Most of the time these components may get splashes of water like driving in the rain but being submerged like this has much more likelihood of water penetration. A paper air filter will immediately stop air from going into the engine the moment it gets wet. Also if the water line is above the bottom of your door, your car's carpet will get wet with this dirty water and will forever smell like a stinky pond.

These are the low milage cars for sale that someone's grandma only used to go to church with.

I love the way they go for the ignition key. Perhaps the last thing you want to touch in the situation.

11:54 when you hear a vehicle accelerating toward the water, you know it's time to run!

Everyones going too fast into it! Lmao

Love how the delivery driver just brushed a piece of plastic into the water. What a tosser

Good to see the fish made it safely back. 🐟

The Tesla doesn't pollute. Happy affixation. Jeannine

Why anybody chances it is beyond me. “I’ll risk writing off my car and make my insurance void”.

all this to avoid an 8-mile detour, its madness, I love my car much so much to even consider going through lower water.

I love that someone finally drove all the way down the side channel, far, AND BACKWARDS FAST! My hero. Now time for a roof snorkel? That was close lol..

That Audi though, so near so far lol

8:33 classic semi-electrified car-problem: Electric hand-brake, electrically shifted gearbox, electrified power-steering .... Gotta love Your all-mechanical seventies-car after an absolutely sobering experience like that short distance rescue-towing

I wonder how the Audi A7 driver got to be in his mid 50s

great to see it nice and full again, not so nice for the drivers but great for viewers

Dont let the insurance companies see this 😂😂

I'm surprised the insurance companies haven't banned this road from their policy lol.

German Car: Bow down to my German superiority Rufford Ford!!!! Rufford Ford: ..............

All bow to the mighty MX5

That Tesla driver wont be feeling so cocky if that water seeps into his battery back and fucks it. I wonder if the insurance companies refuse to pay out due to stupidity.

Knock knock! Who's there? Rod, Con-rod.

I am utterly amazed how many don't know how to negotiate a water hazard and in a defender as well .

Hello, love these videos. Me and my son sit and watch and play guess which car will get through. Suprising how many people attempt it. Thanks for the videos.

The Best vehicle out of All is that Toyota 4Runner pullin everyone n expensive ride's outta that little puddle !! 👍👍😎🤣

Quick tip from me... if you've flooded your engine, it's screwed anyway, so just leave the car in gear and operate the starter motor to pull you out of the water. Those that drive through at speed an soak the pedestrians on the bridge are, IMO, guilty of careless driving. People should reasonably expect they can cross that bridge without getting soaked. That Blue Land Rover driver must have seen how successfully the other Land Rovers have gone through deep water, and not noticed they had the snorkel kit fitted!

Thanks for that little bit at the end showing the top of the river, I always wondered wtf was up there, I just assumed it was a few drains converging, but this is much cooler

City Officials - When are they gonna fix the road problem. Citizens - NO YOU FOOL IS ENTERTAINING!
