This video was filmed by the Minnesota Dept of transportation on I-35 in Minneapolis. I guess it's two separate incidents that were filmed like 5 years apart at almost the exact same time. It begins like just any other normal wet rainy day, until all of a sudden the water bubbles up and begins to spew from a manhole in the middle of the Freeway. Then the water just begins to shoot about 15 to 30 feet into the air like Old Faithful does in Yellowstone. I'm really surprised that no one was killed. Especially the way the the cars keep traveling at a high rate of speed on the freeway as if it no big deal. This could have easily turned into one of those multiple car pileups we read about.
Here is the link to the vid,

Here’s a version to music on Youtube I found when the link would not work.
