Feel for this guy.

Didn't look like he got it turned off in the end. Just diverted it to the toilet.

Do you think he got called out to that with the water blasting like a water cannon?
At 10:57 you can see the hole in the wall.
Mebbe he was chiselling a hole and hit the main hot riser?

Why does it keep starting an stopping? What are the police going to do?
Im guessing he's trying to get a fitting on and each time he think he has, it just blows off again. Some serious hot water pressure there. Almost impossible whilst water is on.
 
Being there and done that, it also helps opening all the other taps, especially the kitchen and garden taps.

At 10 seconds he says "and its like super hot too". And looks to be a cloud of steam after that.
 
I kno2. Bloody phone predictive text is playing silly buggers. Need to change back to SwiftKey.

That's some serious pressure there and it's not a fake. Unlike the baseball video in the other forum.
 
most plumbers have been in a similar situation, i know i have!
first thing he needed to do was to open all the other taps and take the pressure off.
if he couldn't get a fitting on set about flattening the pipe.

although that's easy for me to say in front of my pc at home!
 
That guy will be immersed and will need a boat shortly. That's if he survives the scalding.
:ROFLMAO:
