Have you ever wondered how much water from a fire hydrant could hold up with all its pressure?
San Diego authorities found out just that when reports came in about a snapped fire hydrant holding up the back end of a car for more than an hour. Watch the footage here:
According to the MyFoxLA news report, last week, the driver of this stolen car lost control slammed into a fire hydrant and took off. The car didn’t come down until crews shut off the water.
