Im pretty sure they just do it for the attention. There's always a gaggle of spergs hanging around with their cell phones out. You can avoid the crossing by driving like half a mile around it so there's really no excuse to cross during high water.
Normies don't know shit about how engines work or why drowning them isn't a great idea.
Normies don't know shit generally.
Normies.
It is not physically possible for you to be so naive as to genuinely believe this is remotely close to the dumbest thing attention prostitutes will do for attention, or that idiots will do regardless of motivation.
This might sound like a moron question, but before I ask, I would never drive through such deep water because I'd assume my car would be fricked afterwards. Having said that, here's my question: How exactly does a normal (compact) car get fricked by this, techically, and in what order to things break down in such a situation?
Your engine needs to intake air for combustion. When you suc water in through your intake there's no combustion but the pistons are still moving for a time. Also, that water is much much colder than your aluminum or steel engine block, so the temperature fluctuation of cold water hitting very very hot engine block internals will often crack it. I'm sure there are a dozen other things that get fricked up too.
You missed the most important part, which is that water isn't compressible. Engines are meant to compress air. When the cylinder fills with water it locks up and all that kinetic energy tries to force it, so things break
Also, most cars have the air intake really low, like in front of the front wheel wells.
If its anything like the road outside a place where I used to live the approach and the exit makes the water look shallower than it actually is. People would drive into it all the time not realizing that with a light rain the way the drainage of water in the neighborhood could make the water 5-6 feet deep.
People would drive in thinking they'd just get their tires wet and then hit the unexpected down hill into the deeper part of the basin and need to be hauled out. Even lifted trucks would get stranded.
Floods and shitty winter weather are why I bought a CRV. After almost totaling my lowered project car trying to get home from work during a flood I realized the importance of a weekend car and a commuter.
why does everyone floor it?
is it that unknown to drivers that water crossing should be taken slowly not to create a wave in front of the car plus it gives you the option to oohhfrick and reverse out?

Probably not. Most cars have their alternators mounted towards the bottom of the engine and the water looks deep enough to fully submerge them. Most modern vehicles will run like shit or not at all without a functioning alternator. It only takes a little bit of water to short out your ignition coils and cause the car to misfire to death. The water is also deep enough to get up in your evap vents and such.
Maybe, but without decent momentum you'll struggle across water, you want to keep a bow wave up like a boat. Toss up between frying your electrics or getting swamped. Really you shouldn't be fricking around with water unless your car is properly set up for it, diff breathers, snorkel, electronics high up, etc.
Many of those cars have air intakes low in the grill. When you suck water into your engine instead of air, you find out that air doesn't compress well and you end up destroying your engine instead.
where's your snorkel mate? every fricking soccer mum's crossover here has a snorkel despite never touching dirt. there isn't any water on the bloody continent.
Should have got a Tessie as they are amphibious
Skip to 40 seconds, same road
It's called a vehicle snorkel chudcel
>That Land Rover @ 12:46
the jeep after would fricken rip it kid

Destroyed engine only for clout?
I doubt that

It's not like they gain something out of this except looking like a fool. My guess is that they're just dumbs.

Water is an incompressible fluid you fricking moron. That's it. That's why.
That's what I meant when I said the pistons were still moving. My internal monologue explains it that way, but I see your points, lol.
>I'm sure there are a dozen other things that get fricked up too
@ 3:00, wait for it.
That Tessie @40s pwns it.
Is there anything they can't do?
>Is there anything they can't do?
make you cool
Tessie are the cars to have now anon, where have you been?
You'll never be cool.
I would say go die in a fire but it's redundant I guess.
Kek get drowned ICEpedo
better to frick underage girls than to be a flaming homosexual like you
>Admits to being a pedo
Kek, lol, lmao
>admits to being a disgusting sodomite
lmao, lol, KeK
I'll wait for the price to come down
charge themselves on a remote off road trail
>MMM BMW footwell soup
I was waiting for the Defender to stall or for the bumper to rip off or something.
I mean, I'm sure this flooded BM isn't gonna need just an engine replacement.
I was just wondering why you singled out that BMW at 3:00. Between the two videos there are like 150 engine replacements being done.

#JustICEthings
Think about where your air intake is in your car and how well it does sucking in water not air. Also radiator fans don't spin under water too well
Renault made an SUV for a whule with an air intake beneath the front bumper. That went well.
If its anything like the road outside a place where I used to live the approach and the exit makes the water look shallower than it actually is.

Watching the first few, it seems like if these guys had just driven slowly and not nosedived into the water all at once, they could have made it.
Floods and shitty winter weather are why I bought a CRV. After almost totaling my lowered project car trying to get home from work during a flood I realized the importance of a weekend car and a commuter.
the average "person" doesn't even understand how an engine work
the funny part is that if they weren't moronic they could have actually made it.
insurance fraud
suprised the rovers got swamped, i used to do this in the riverbed in my 4runner all day
why does everyone floor it?

Imagine a Clio going through there with th turbo inlet on the bonnet.

Luck
You got lucky anon
Got a free steam cleaning, nice
90% German and Ford car """drivers"""
what else are they supposed to drive? Rovers?
Couldn't some of these cars made it through by just going slower so the water doesn't fly up?
Probably not. Most cars have their alternators mounted towards the bottom of the engine and the water looks deep enough to fully submerge them. Most modern vehicles will run like shit or not at all without a functioning alternator. It only takes a little bit of water to short out your ignition coils and cause the car to misfire to death.

you guys watch stuck in beach sand? It's as fun as water
?t=47
driving on sand is tough, I wouldn't go anywhere near it in a street modern car given how heavy most of them are
imagine having a raised Discovery and fricking up. embarassing
?t=767
where's your snorkel mate? every fricking soccer mum's crossover here has a snorkel despite never touching dirt. there isn't any water on the bloody continent.
so the c**ts in the silver defender, is it their job to pull dafties out all day? do you reckon they charge for the service?
WAT R U POOF M8
kek I love watching these, but why is there a road going through a river? might as well drive off a boat ramp.
theyre not homosexuals like you
Kek, yeah well I'm a homosexual because I won't hydrolock my engine.
this was in the related
Oooff, good video. He kept his cold, easy to panic in these situations. Nasty weather is always understated.
Imagine
in this situation
Can someone please explain to me how?
Air filter is at the top, he could have taken it out and breathedlike a dolphin.
Who else could actually cross this without issue?
