Our Excavator releases a lot of water in an attempt to drain it away from the sand.

There were no accidents, and the manager (who was running the excavator) is still alive to this day.

Com: Otto philips : I give it a thumbs up simply because it's not twenty minutes of watching the excavator slowly work away the dam. 

A few seconds of digging and then BAM! the payoff of the flowing water...

Com: Doctor : I used to love playing "dam burst" more than anything else.

I'd go to a creek, build a dam out of rocks, then breech it and chase the flood downstream. I think my parents spent the whole time having..

Com: Volvo excacator : That's actually pretty hard sandstone, anyways,

I was actually getting rid of that sand pile with the wheel loader.

I can't really complain myself since the manager was running that machine and thought it was fine.
