I remember when the power went out during the Super Bowl years back, and it got me thinking. The Hoover Dam is right up the road from Las Vegas. With so much security at the Super Bowl, I hope there is equally as much at the Hoover Dam. If there was EVER a watch the water moment.... I hope they are really watching the Hoover Dam closely, because that would be a real problem if something ever happened to it.
I hope I am just being paranoid, but this is a hell of an upside down world right now.
I got news for you. It would take an atomic bomb to bring down the Hoover dam.
660 feet think at base. 45 feet at crest.
At current water level I bet it's hundreds of feet thick.
