So how does one train for a fire in a dam?

smoke? check.  massive electrical risk? check Risk of getting about 6 different kids of burns? check.

Then if you fuck up real bad, you get to drown too...

You won't even know about it if you drown, luckily.

Thread title makes me think of a string of generic 1970s disaster movie titles.  "Opening this Friday!  'EXPLOSION AT HOOVER DAM!'  Starring George Kennedy and Linda Blair!"

Weekend network TV in the late 70s and early 80s was all about the disaster movie.  Young DCBC ate that shit up.  Probably why Airplane! still resonates so strongly with me.  That and the "we're also out of coffee" scene.

I'll only watch it if Ernest Borgnine is in it.

A lot of people are wondering about this so all I gotta say is it’s just coincidence. I actually posted this at 1am last night and it got 1 like so I gave it another shot when I woke. Also the dam wasn’t destroyed and I live on the other side of the country nowhere near the dam.
