I was awoken by a rap rap rapping upon my front door at 3:15 am. The main water line that feeds my house and the neighbors house 6-7 feet under ground had burst. There was about a good 10-20 foot fucking geiser shooting into the air. My truck was of course parked right next to this astounding feat of water pressure. It had dumped all 6-7 foot of dirt between the pipe and the surface upon said truck. My yard was a river to say the least.... that bitch had to be pumping out over 1000 gallons a minute. It took Lakeland's finest, the water company almost 2 fucking hours to respond. Meanwhile I had rednecks from deliverance floating down the river between my house and the neighbors house looking for pigs. They did fix it, when they got the water shut off there was a hole big enough for a guy to put a ladder in and climb down into it to work on the pipe. I will post up pictures of my attempt at a water fountain and home made moat later today. If I were younger I would have played in it. What a night.

Pics - I also have about 2700.00 in damages to my 4Runner from the flying rocks and water. No water got inside the truck but it was beating so hard on the roof near the back it actually put a dent in the roof.

 

Crazy stuff !!!!

 

At least you didnt have to wait for a crew to dig all the way down to the ruptured pipe
