I'm absolutely ASTONISHED how little coverage this is getting here. Wuhan is already flooded and we all know that Corona was found in their SEWAGE, so God only knows what these floods could cause.

Here's a few YouTube links to videos. One shows a railroad bridge collapsed into the river near Wuhan with some horrible images. For those who are not familiar, Wuhan is SEVEN TIMES the size of New York City in population!

Maybe FINALLY the Chinese people will riot and overturn their horrendous CCP. If the Three Gorges Dam fails nearly ONE THIRD of the country's population will be at risk!

"This is apparently a video of the mountain city of #Chongqing, #China (have yet to verify this), now flooding because of torrential rains. "notable Chinese hydrologist Wang Weiluo (王維洛)" questions safety of #ThreeGorgesDam alongside (see earlier tweet)"

Mind you, the person with the camera is looking down at this waterfall on the main street.

China floods threaten collapse of world’s largest dam: The Three Gorges Dam

The following maybe of interest only to some of you. Should it happen the repercussions in some form or another may affect all of us.

I came across a mathematical study the other day in reference to the water pressure against the dam walls of the Three Gorges dam which was rather impressive with a conservative estimate of about 25 million tons of pressure. You may find this short movie clip on YouTube by searching for FORCE OF WATER ON CHINA’S 3 GORES DAM WALL.

As far as the stability of this dam is concerned, from time to time I run across the comment that the base of this dam is not anchored to the bedrock beneath, since it is known as a gravity dam. The thought crossed my mind that this may have been done on purpose, why? From what I understand is that this area is subject to frequent quakes and needless to say, should there be a solid connection to the bedrock beneath it would transfer any motion throughout the whole dam.

With the dam being constructed from individual blocks any severe motion of the ground beneath could place quite a bit of stress on any of the individual sections forcing them to move. This along with the enormous water pressure behind the dam wall, could quite possible expedite the demise of this dam. For this reason I believe, maybe I am wrong, they choose to let the ground slide independently from the structure resting on top.

Either way, I would not feel comfortable or safe living anywhere downstream of this dam. Not only that, but should this dam give way I would not be surprised to see that it would usher in some big political changes, which would be to the benefit of several neighboring countries let alone Hong Kong

The whole of China is a virology lab out of control. It needs to be nuked once and for all, starting with Beijing.
