Dammit! Oops wrong one.

When I was a kid my Dad gathered us all up into a car and drove us all over the Southwest. Because he is such a nice guy we ended up taking a tour of the Glen Canyon Dam before rafting down the cool Colorado. The tour was really comprehensive, we walked over the top and all the way into the bowels of the marvel. During the tour one of the turbines was started, which produced the most furious sound I have ever heard in my life. I honestly thought I was going to die. The whole group panicked and started to scream. Oh boy was that an adventure. Turns out they are just really loud and that is normal. Who knew?
