Man.... It takes a whole lot of force to push two steel doors the wrong way through their doorframes... I've got to wonder wtf happened.

Water pressure is a bitch, dude.

[–] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That's a possibility I guess; but I'd have expected a waterline along the walls. Unless it was really really clean water, it should have left a mark.

Unless the water line is up on the next floor, but that's mean a 10+foot (3m+) flood

Maybe firefighters with some sort of ram?

Could be; but they tend to use prying tools like a 'halligan' (pic below) to force the doorframe away from the latch then pull the door outward the way it's supposed to swing.

Maybe swat using a rook? (armored skidsteer with a ram) Not sure that's got the reach for this though.

Yeah that makes more sense.

I was imagining some kind of hydraulic ram that you'd butt against the opposite wall and then slowly extend to push the door in, but I don't even know if that's a thing and if it is, what situation would require using that instead of the halligan you just introduced to me?

Damn I'm really curious, shame we probably won't get an answer :')
