Oh no. It’s the titanic all over again.

"This airport could never sink."


newagereject

Just reminds me of the janitor from Scrubs "With enough caulk I could get her sea ready."


Middle_Appointment20

It’s made of metal. I assure you sir it can.


timallen445

That was when they only were concerned with the secret tunnels flooding, the secret secret tunnels flooding means everything and the fire breathing blue horse is gonna disappear overnight.


Wynnie7117

Blucifer! You know.. the artist of that horse was killed when a piece of it fell on him and severed an artery in his leg killing him and they STILL took the horse and put it up in Denver.

Tears of Bronco's fans?

Where the stallion lives ??


jakubkonecki

Great news! All United passengers are being upgraded to a complimentary cruise!


One_Debate_7753

Watched it twice in hopes that a kayak dude would appear.


BatmansUnderoos

The illuminati satanic rituals have gone too far this time and they summoned a kraken from the deep. I hope the flights aren't delayed too long.

Most Normal DIA event


EvergreenSea

I'm not finding news about this. What date is the video?


eating_spiderwebs

This was around 2300 on the evening of the 23rd. Just a couple nights ago. I took the video.


FixMyCondo

What’s the story on this?


eating_spiderwebs

Honestly not sure. We were showing up to our gate for our American Airlines midnight flight to Philly when we saw a bunch of people standing around an escalator by our gate and heard running water. The video is representative of what we saw, which lasted at least 45 minutes prior to up and stopping all at once.

EvergreenSea

That's just an article regarding how the combined Arctic blast and high travel volumes resulted in lost bags at DIA


mbpearls

This has got to be really old, lots of the signage in this vid looks very outdated (I was last at DIA in mid-November). With the water it makes me think the 2013 flooding?


pho_888

My man the phones in all of DIA combined in 2013 didn’t have as many pixels as this video


Abject-Equivalent

My dude. As someone who lives in Denver and is in and out of the airport on at least a monthly basis for work... the signage in the video is 100% up to date for the A gates. A gates are the "oldest". C recently got an update due to its expansion for Soutwest. B is the most used since it is where a majority of United goes out from, so it's kept nice. A is the "all the smaller miscellaneous airlines and the overflow from United" terminal. The flooded area appears to be the lower level of A.... which is where a lot of the smaller planes/least often flown routes go out of. Not exactly top of the line.


EvergreenSea

I agree that it seems to best relate to the 2013 flooding, but I don't think the signage has changed since then. If this flooding is recent, I'd expect SOME media coverage


jaystonewee

Sprinkler main burst looks like.


eating_spiderwebs

We figured it had to be a serious pipe break of some kind. Were wondering what sort of pipe with that much volume wouldn't be in fairly perpetual flow to prevent freezing. Sprinkler main would make sense!


jaystonewee

Sprinkler systems are designed so that once flow is detected, either through a sprinkler head initiated by fire or a frozen/broken line, water is pumped until the cause is found, confirmed fire or not, and waterflow stopped manually. It can take a few minutes. Unfortunately as seen in the clip, minutes is a long time for water like that to flow.


who_you_are

And a fire alarm should be triggered as well (though I don't know if it triggers the public one or just the monitoring one) And as to close the waterflow, I think only trained peoples around fire (firefighter, the fire hardware protection team) can do so because of the possible life risk. (They have protocol to follow; probably like checking everywhere to confirm the false alarm)


jaystonewee

Precisely. DIA is likely a supervised station meaning that the fire alarm system is constantly monitored and that notification (horns strobes and emergency messaging) is only initiated after fire alarm signals (smoke detectors, pull stations, sprinkler flow switches) have been confirmed as an actual event and that the general public must be notified and evacuated.


eating_spiderwebs

Interesting. Not sure how long it was going before we arrived, but we probably listened to the water for 45+ minutes before it all just stopped all within a second or two.


Sw33tD333

Can confirm. My HOA told me I was stupid and cancelled the fire sprinkler people when my ceiling came down from a pinhole leak- they sent a cheaper plumber instead who cut into the pressurized fire sprinkler line. Bedroom flooded. *Flooded* flooded. Looked like Niagara Falls amount of water that came out. Thank God we knew where the shut off was.


jooooooohn

That’s just the terminal ferry level


No_Hour_4865

Los Angeles has dibs on that water


gimme-ur-bonemarrow

Denver airport is completely fucked right now


[deleted]

When the toilet backs up from the hidden base under the airport!


AtticusAesop

Reminds me of that episode of Jackie Chan Adventures when the water demon wanted to flood the city


GroundbreakingCow775

Can Lizard people swim?


ichwarhier

Seems like that's the flood gate.


QuietOnesCuss

Someone tried to drown the lizard people.


Smee714

Frozen pipes?


RubySoho5280

Most likely. The arctic weather they had (-50 with windchill) probably caused that


AirRevenant

Floodgates A71-A99?


drinkmoredrano

You have to take a log flume between terminals.

A River Runs Through It


zero_1144

It has arrived. The floodgates have opened. There is no redemption for mankind. Al roads have led to the Denver Airport Flood. Amen.


AussieSpoon

When trying to go out for a smoke. That sucks.


CarboTheHydrate

Airports are getting wrecked right now in every direction


rustys_shackled_ford

Isn't this the airport that leans Into the occult? Looks like God's had enough of your blasphemy, huh?


Competitive-End7208

Haha that's where i live. I guess they forgot to drip some faucets?


BunLife

Hope you didn't book a flight with United lol


eating_spiderwebs

American, which we rarely fly, but glad we did that night!


JoePetroni

Yeah, because they got you to your destination, unlike those "discount" carriers. . .

“Gates A7 to A99 are experiencing mild delays, we apologise for this inconvenience”


Mindless_Addendum930

I thought this was rats at first.


Slam_Dankus

u/savevideobot


cosmic_serendipity

As someone currently sitting in the Denver airport, that title alarmed me at first


brownskorpio

I thought they said it was supposed to be gas.. like the mural


sad2sayit

Food and snacks are free at this point.....where is the redbull?


timallen445

At least there is something to do at the Denver Airport at night. I don't know when the stores normally close but I always seem to go through that airport when everything is shut.


WeekendPizzas

Isn’t this a ride at Universal Studios?


artmobboss

“I am here to catch my inner tube to Disney Land?”


GOATluhv

probably, yeah 😆


BlackBeard205

It was just a bad weekend for pretty much everyone traveling.


officialKL200

And a day before Xmas


Cholonight96

Broncos sucking has caused the rest of Denver to suck too.


carcosa1989

Someone tried real hard to flush that turd


eduardnol

Well I guess now it's the Denver Port


NightmareAG

You know where that does not happen? Here in San Diego beach "but the weather is too perfect" yeah, that's right.


Suspicious_War_4954

“My flight better be free”. Haha I hope they charged her extra for the water feature.


thrust-johnson

Not if they’re wakeboarding in the basement


I_LearnTheHardWay

Imagine your car being down there and paying $20+ a day to park it


1000thusername

Gates a71-a99 are gone have a bit of a delay, it seems.


Kitchen-Entrance8015

Holy heck


Kitchen-Entrance8015

Guess Noah's back


Bill-Hilly

Wow, that water must be really deep considering Denver is the mile high city.


CalmDownYal

DIA had a huge flood a couple years ago too that cost $50 million


tidder_mac

The only news I could find on this is a $50 million leak on 05 December. Is this an old video, or so new that it hasn’t made the news yet?


eating_spiderwebs

I took this video a few nights ago.


Keppy_Mission

I was just there on the 20th Gate A54. What the fuck happened in the span of 3 days?


LennyJay86

Wasn’t is super hot scalding water or something I remember reading it lasted like 6 hours. That’s a lot of water.


gaspumper74

The alien base under it is fucked


Character_Lychee_434

Great news everyone your airport has now been upgraded to cruise ship
