光榮(壯觀)之洞 - monticello水壩

a glory hole is used when a dam is at full capacity and water needs to be drained from the reservoir.

光榮(壯觀)之洞是用來幫滿水位的水壩排水的
this is the glory hole belonging to monticello dam in california and it’s the largest in the world, its size enabling it to consume 14′400 cubic feet of water every second.

這個光榮(壯觀)之洞是屬於美國加州的monticello水壩的,而且是世上最大的. 它的超大size可每秒可以吸收14,400立方英尺(約408立方公尺)的水

the hole can be seen at the top left of the photo above. if you were to jump in for some reason your slightly damp body would shoot out near the bottom of the dam (below).

從上圖可以看到在左上方的光榮(壯觀)之洞.萬一你想不開而跳下去的話,你的身體會在水壩下方被射出來
