I remember as a kid on my dads boat, one day we anchored our 28ft boat about 150ft from the shore in front of Ogden dunes There was no other boats is sight for miles and zero people on their beach that day. Some Lady homeowner starts screaming at us from the beach that were on private property. We never left the boat or even intended to swim or anything. We just wanted to take a quick lunch on our boat , check an issue with our batteries, then be on our way. The lady was foaming at the mouth at us. ruined the whole day. There were no Dunes state park buoys in the area either like the public beaches even though boundary 300ft from the shore. We were bothering no one and they also were known to chase off joggers on their beaches. Since then I feel no sympathy for the beach home owners and will vote against any attempt to use tax dollars to fix their mess. Now Indiana supreme court changed for allowing beach access to walkers/joggers, and they have no beach left from mother nature at all. Karma will get you every time. Fuck em

The people across the street are about to have waterfront property!

I know of a township on Lake Michigan where the people wanted to build right next to the water, Lake Michigan. The township is small but had ordinances that you could not build within so many feet of the beach. The people went to court, the township could not afford a lawyer so they had to let the people build where they wanted. More people found out about this so more threatened the township with lawsuits and won because the township did not have the money to fight. Guess what is happening now with these peoples antics. I don’t feel sorry for any of them!!! (I know the building inspector).

Kinda battling an endless battle ya think! Mother nature always wins. Would be interesting to see how the waterfront looked about 10yrs ago.

Dropping those big boulders in the water is like peeing on a forest fire.

Those pebbles won't stop the water

I wonder which one of these rich homeowners were upset about people walking along the beach.

sadly these poor downtrodden homeowners are being forced to stay in their NAPLES Fl $3M condo, or their $1.5m Aspen lodge, or their Hawaiian timeshare... sad times for $$$$$$$$ people....

Not to take delight in other peoples misfortunes, you can see certain ;just deserts' in the wealthy who buy such properties, do their best to restrict access to the beaches for anyone else, so when they spend a few weeks or summer there, it's like an exclusive resort. Then, they turn around and want all of those people not allowed on 'their' beaches to pay for remediation of their (former) shoreline properties and build expense structures to protect their private properties. Well, for many of these, there is no longer any beach to fight over, thus the 'just deserts' attitude.

Well, I learned something today! I have lived my ENTIRE life believing Indiana to be a land-locked state. 🙄 It comes from growing up in the left- hand corner of the US, I think. 😁

Trying to hold back mighty Lake Michigan, good luck.

Wunderschön, aber auch beängstigend. Thank you for that awesome Video. Bleibt alle gesund🙏🍀

That's why they call it a GREAT lake‼️

you wanted to be close to water...it's done. You win

The Great Lakes rise and fall. Always have always will. If we would learn from history and allow for that fact by adapting our infrastructure we would be so much better off

Only a fool would build so close to the water.

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Wow that's a brave joker driving that machine. It ain't no way I could sit there and do that type of work.

I do feel sorry for those that have generations of family owned property washed away. It's amazing how much has just disappeared. Lady Lake Michigan takes the sand from underneath those massive rocks and its gone So sad. Sometimes all that money doesn't mean squat to rolling waves and wind. Great video again. Thanks.

Resta pouco tempo pra que esta costa desapareça.

WoW, lucky people having lake side property !

Can we get updated videos of the shores of Lake Michigan. Curious if it's gotten worse or better over the last 2-3 years

The Atlantic coast is seeing sea level rise impacts first because the Atlantic Ocean is smaller than the Pacific and closer to the rapid melting from Greenland

I think we're gonna need a bigger wall....

Fun fact: I actually did vacation in the house on the right of the mansion. I'm dead ass.

My money is on Ma Nature!!!

I love living in Muncie Indiana.

What was that attachment on the Hitachi excavator? Two independently controlled thumbs? Never seen that before. Wild.

can't wait for the vid where it shows natures "final blow" to these arrogant elite.

Losing battle. The lake will not be denied.

GOTTA UPDATE 📸. 🎥. 🙏👍🏻😠👍🏻❗❗❗

These sea wall contractors are making a fortune right now.

Point of fact: a seawall is the very worst thing you can do to stop coastline erosion. Literally the worst! But don't worry; America and Americans can always be relied upon to do the right thing, once they've exhausted all other avenues.

Must be an anglers dream come true .

A fool and his beach front property are soon parted.

Rich people problems

They have a lot of work to do.

The great Lakes rise and fall, that's not the same as a storm ! if the water level rises the shore line will move inland ! and the home you built when the waters where low will be in the water.

Another comment somebody said it just comes in certain times well we're in 2022 this is a start of something that will never stop it could get even worse next year and the thing about it is this is not even midsummer so what happens the rest of the summer your house won't be there

Open the locks, turn this extra water into green energy!

Fighting the inevitable, sea level rise, extreme weather events and storm surges will claim these homes.

And so it goes...

More money than brains...sorry I just dont feel your pain. :ox

It will take more than a few boulders to hold the water back.

House can not be built on sinking sand....waterfront is gorgeous, but it always comes to this

What’s next, triple sea walls?

how it is possible to allow the construction of houses on dunes and by the sea. People the volume of the oceans is rising!

I'm sure these rich people will find a way to get the entire county to pay for the seawall repair... under some environmental disaster bill.

You never know when the real estate market will quickly change.

I wonder if the water always ruff like that!!?

Constructing properties right where the shoreline is this close is totally off limits . And how the heck its even allowed by the authorities is beyond me. In a matter of months another drone footage will showcase the true nature of the sea reclaiming and reaching out to the back rows and beating down mercilessly on their dreams yielding extended shore lines in its aftermath .

honestly, the placement of those homes was just ridiculous. they were built wayyyy too far out, too close to the waterline. they were built to fail. people just dont understand the power of that lake.

The ocean will take those rocks and swallow them .. They will not stay there..

Oh well you can't keep that water from climbing that

请问全球Facebook啊？什么叫做【隐私权屏蔽】啊？其实Facebook有几大呢？🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾

Wot the ocean wants it will take, regardless of u r, 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌪️🌩️⛈️🌧️🙆🙆🙆🙆🙆, Colm

Serves damn fool right building a house so close to the water. No sympathy here

There's something both sad and pathetic and almost funny about the activities at 1.0, the digger desperately picking up stones and individually plonking them on the pile. Imagine living there, watching day by day the sea getting closer, your property unsaleable, dreading the next storm, the cost of the works, no garden because of the constant wash of seawater.

Its a nice expensive effort, but.

Натуральный шум океана лучше

Sad, I could have prevented much of that via poly injection. People just don’t want to do the maintenance.

Can't fix stupid... 🤣🤣

you can only try to stop the water but , but you cant stop God !!!

Sea Walls cause a lot of damage

5 years from now those sea walls will be covered by sand dunes.

Although it's always sad to see the devastating power of mother nature, your video's are the best out there. The man at the top, in your country doesn't believe in the link between climate change, and the year on year worsening weather events. When will we learn...

why with the music???

The Bible had something to say about people who built their house on the sand. Nature hasn't changed her ways, no matter how much money someone has.

Dumbest place to put buildings so close to the lake, its just a matter of time before something would happen to them!!

Why, why, why would anyone build so close to water? These houses are incredibly grand. Building so close to water invites eventual erosive issues. It’s stupid and No extraordinary efforts should go to attempt to save what will without doubt eventually be claimed by the sea…because of man’s folly.

Was there once beach at the front of these homes ? Is it ocean front , or lake ?

Not even a coast line? It's a river in Indiana.

I have to make another comment play in the little music in the background like this is a sad deal yes I was laughing what a joke but you know you're seeing firsthand how rich people can throw money away

They can't even enjoy walking on the shoreline. I wouldn't live there.

Rich people with ocean view homes, well their property value has dropped to sweet fuck all now! They can't even give their homes away!

Like the one comment about putting rocks on it like oh Jesus yeah somebody's got a bunch of money cuz they're trying to save their property yeah let him throw his money away he gets a little hard at the big monster thing you got down here

You can’t defend this. Beyond climate, let’s just say Mother Nature is sick of this shit sitting on her beautiful shores.

This is getting serious, but no one is listening! If this keeps up, there won't be any earth left.

Gotta love GC's ripping off rich folk that gravel the excavator is on will wash out first storm that holes broken down sheet piling or when rip rap pulls away after wave action erodes it's base, then GC gets to come back, do it again! Brilliant Drive piles a few feet apart back fill with mix small to large rock to boulders drive in sheet piles w screened gaps to allow wave water that over tops to flow back out min 50 ft sheet piles or 4 x ht above sea bed, cap with concrete from below low tide cover rock fill with well concrete is the only no maint solution min 18 inches heavily reinforced might anchor in geo stabilizing rings and mesh that along with compacted highway fill might only require patching after storms, who knows establish a complex geo stabilized mini dune system with thick dense grasses still needs maint but might self heal a bit and alot nicer to look at Rip rap at 45 degree max out to where wave action won't under mine. (which is too far to afford so rip rap and replace every few yrs as needed PS Anyone who establishes a jack up barge based solution with proper equip LARGE equip can clean up here working back and forth as cheap skate rich folk need their patches patched again and again.

who signed the building permits? the person responsible belongs in jail

Why do you want to fight with oceans and mother nature..

These home properties are now worthless, why bother paying taxes.

I wonder who is paying for the seawalls??? Not the rich! oh, wait, it's the poor people!

House 🏠 up for sale going cheap $3,000,000 any offers apply in

A very very stupid place to have a house !!!!!

RE- WILD THE BEACHES NOW ! 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 🦜 🦚 🦢 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 🦜 🦚 🦢 🐦 Construction along shore lines is SHAMFUL AND GREEDY.

It's not nice to try and fool mother nature! If you build your home in a place like this, you will lose everything.

stop wasting money on build those wall . they will not last for long

Sorry but I do not feel sorry for these homes....They were stupid to buy them that close....So glad they will lose money.....These are the people that believe in no global warming....So have a nice day a a see you from the hills....

Rich people problems. ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz......

How much is your real estate worth now? Time to move on people and quit trying to save your home. Mother Nature will take its course and there is nothing you can do about it.
