Bravo to these selfless folk who threw so much away just to keep us entertained.

If nothing else we’ve learned that if you approach a flood or ford and there is an audience, turn around.

I came across my road home from work yesterday flooded all across, I didn't hesitate, turned my car around, went the long way round, got home safe in the knowledge I had a nice working car and settled down with a nice cup of tea, that's how to do it

I'm sitting here scratching my head in disbelief watching these people wreck perfectly good cars and vans.

*always amazes me when I think 🤔 we are all humans with brains 🧠 and yet, not all of us use them* 😂😂😂

You just can't beat the hydro lock knock! 😅😅😅

Pistons say: let's compress water!

Its the Jag at 2:38 that gets me, does the depth gauge showing 3ft of water not give you a clue that perhaps in a normal road car, that might be bad news?

And people wonder why insurance is so expensive 😅

poor Audi Rs4 B7 😮 it’s criminal !

Nice hearing the birds twit when the jag was written off...

Amazing how much of a hurry these people are in to have a breakdown, most of them would've made it if they'd slow down 😂 top effort for standing there in the piddling rain buddy, most entertaining 👏

Once you see the water going over the top of the bonnet you know the car's done for.

На это можно смотреть бесконечно))!!Людская беспечность и уверенность просто поражает.

Well at one minute that white car engine was mashed in to a clattering rattling jumble of randomly distributed cogs and rods by the time those restarts finished.

I can't believe that the guy actually called rescue and had them float him out on a boat in water one foot deep. Guess he didn't want to get his shoes wet. Some people. SMH.

All the years of design that went into these vehicles, the money spent buying, insuring, having MOT's every year, going on holiday in them, running a business using them etc then they get driven into deep water in a moment of madness & it's all over for the majority - 🦆🦆🦆 are waterproof & meant to go in deep water, 🚗🚐🚛 etc work very well on roads. Bonkers the lot of them.

17:53 don’t think 4 wheel drive would help when you’re floating 😂😂

At least the wipers are still working on the jag😂😂

Straight in with some massive damage 😂😂😂😂

BMW The Ultimate Diving Machine

Ha ha love the RIP number plates tied to the fence supposed to warn others

Poor chap walking away from his car left the wipers on 😂😂😂

remember these are the people raising your insurance premiums

I’m at a loss for words FOR REAL 😂😂😂😂😂😂

"Settle down class, settle down That's it.... quiet please. You at the back too. Now take out your exercise books and turn to a clean page. Today we are going to learn all about Hydrolock."

10:54 unbelievable

That sound of the white bmw in beginning, lol

All the BMW drivers ploughing in with wanton abandon. Ha ha, Muppets!!

There’s a brick wall in front of me, I’ll just drive straight at it, see what happens. Why do people do this…?! That motorbike tho, poor fella 😂

Grandpa in the Jag....it's 3 FEET of water mate! How long has this guy been driving?!

The amount of people clueless on how to go through deep water is unreal.

2:12 Ok that one made me LOL

They should have dispatched the air ambulance to get that man out of the blue car 😅 it's so deep it must be what four or five inches 😮

Worse problem for BMW and Audi is if the engine conks out in the flood water, towing means the rear wheel is locked messing up the tyre on extraction.

Watch as vehicles bravely navigate through the UK's storm floods in this jaw-dropping compilation of waterlogged roads and unexpected fails

It's always funny watching these cars make the attempt and just stop at the other end

It makes me smile they have not got a clue how to go through water.all moden cars have the air filter pipe in the grill area so the faster you go the quicker you bend the con rods😅

La maggior parte di questi mezzi se passavano pianissimo non avrebbero avuto problemi 😉

I will never understand the mindset of people who 1- choose to drive through water levels unsuitable for their vehicle despite there being a water depth indicator. Or 2- people who think driving fast through water is the correct approach. It genuinely angers me how stupid some people are. Some people are just so careless to take brand new expensive vehicles through deep water. If you have a Land Rover/Range Rover then fair enough, but not some saloon car or something.

This is unbelievable

Piston rods left the chat. lol

I guess for many drivers they think some deep standing water even just 12 inches let alone 24 inches or more will be passable if I put my foot down. But that bow wave they can't see and even if they did, would have no idea where all that incoming water is going. Straight into the air filter housing and then into the cylinder head piston chambers. If they survive the flood, they think hurrah, but on exit there is normally a slope and the engine dies adding even more water from the clogged air filter into the engine. No diesel or petrol engine will survive. Water gets into the sump , all the electrics starter and alternator, hence the squeaking. Basically a very expensive repair job. But some drive slowly and that is even worse, as water enters the exhaust and kills the engine. Then a water logged car and it means a tow out. But if you drive slowly and keep very high revs with clutch slipping, it will keep the water out of the exhaust and you could survive. I have seen 4wd with a snorkel conk out because of the exhaust dilemma. Or the Fiat 500 stop and become a floater!! Would I take my 20 year-old Rover 45 through a ford, yes if it was only halfway up a passing duck.

If the back of the vehicle is floating in the water and inside is flooded, that vehicle is a complete write-off!

Children have the most fun! The attraction is free.

Top video mate, been a crazy year…😭😂

After watching a lot of these I can confirm that going in too fast is the best way to wreck the car.

That white bmw tho, Jesus Christ. Bet the fire brigade guys in the other clip, were laughing when they got back in the truck, what a joke 😂. Although wrong to waste emergency services time like that.

Today Matthew I want to be Stockton Rush 😂😂

If the water is above bumper height, & you go in , you'll likely fry the engine if it gets into the Air Filter box . Any petrol or diesel ingesting water is a sure way to destroy your vehicle . Just gotta wonder how many vehicles that do this are completely written off

My car has a 900mm wading depth but I still would avoid

100.000s in damage. Just a crazy place

Nice to see a totally overloaded car and trailer 🙄

27:59 bro really had fire rescue come bring an emergency raft to get him out of a foot of water 💀

Sad thing is, a lot of these vehicles may have made it, if the drivers knew how to do the crossing correctly.

Man I would be so pissed if my Amazon package would arrive soaking wet.

These are just mechanical fails. Tragically 3 men lost their lives during the flooding in Storm Garrett. It's just not worth it.

My car just swallowed a couple gallons of water and sounds like it’s destroying itself. It’s fine!

There's driver's, then there's screwdrivers .

Saw a video very recently at one Copart auction site where there were row after row of cars all with water damaged cars for sale. It is not just the engine that suffers but all the internals.

The white BMW was bad but 10.48 the grey ford just dived right in.

You're supposed to drive behind and follow your bow wave, not drive in the middle of it 😂

At 3:00 who else was wanting to shout "you can't park there?"

You can hear the sound of con rods bending!

Ist doch klar das der Motor durch die Ansaugung Wasser zieht, oder die wissen nicht wie ein Motor funktioniert 😂😂😂

Less beer, more water.

When you see that white smoke 😮 it's too late,engine left the chat 😅

Wieso denken die Leute es ist eine brillante Idee mit dem Auto ins Wasser zu fahren? 😂😂😂

Should put a sign up saying if u want to destroy ur car be mine guest 😅

When your engine sounds like jimmy spoons on steroids and bellowing white smoke thinking turning it over to dry out is not the best idea and I’m no mechanic 😂

Oh God, the white BM. 😳

The white smoke of death.....

People think they’re invincible in their vehicles. Especially the 4x4 and bmw w-ankers

Oh my ,the bin lorry

You can hear the crows laughing at him @3:11

I mean why they wanna take a risk and go through that much water.😂

I love the motor pike😂😂😂😂😂😂

That bmw tried it's hardest to live

они специально ловят гидроудар или они не понимают?

I drive my vehicle in deep water all the time, my vehicle is a boat though.

brawo

Skulldrag that X6 outta there.

1:05 That is how you reduce a BMW to a box of rocks

1:02 Pretty sure that's not how it's supposed to sound

Engines need air, fuel and a spark ( for petrol propelled) , correct compression for diesel. I bet these motorist have no idea where the air intake is in their vehicles nor 4x4 get fitted with snorkels. A Hydrolocked engine what you get having breathed in the flood waters. Driving slowly to avoid the water line reaching your air intake is the ideal method.

everyone which goes slow and in 1st gear they mostly manage to come over

They need soviet cars there!

3:00 ++ 😅😅😅

How would you like it if you were jogging along taking a deep breath, and someone tipped a bucket of water down your throat? 😅

BMW and Mercedes traaaaash

N is NEUTRAL! white BMW at 23:00 is going to need an alignment and a transmission, I'll give you £1,500 for it....

I wonder why these video's are always in UK. Here in mainland Europe we also had a lot of rain, but never these epic video's 😅

Water over the hood is a no no lol

Why are some people so stupid!!! 😅😅😅😅

You can guarantee that none of these drivers know that you cannot compress water, and have no understanding whatsoever of the words hydro locking...

Why doesn't England just build a few small bridges? Seems the sensible option.

"Ну тупыыыыеееее " 😂

LOL, that One series sounds well f*cked! The X4, wtf were they doing towing it out by the front wheel? Even if the engine was hydro locked, you just f*cked the xDrive on it. BTW, were any fish harmed in the making of this compilation?

Bem simples. Só passar de vaga(água a meia rodo no máximo)
