Glory Hole - Monticello Dam, California
A glory hole is used when a dam is at full capacity and water needs to be drained from the reservoir.
This is the 'Glory Hole' at Monticello dam, and it's the largest in the world of this type of spillway, its size enabling it to consume 14,400 cubic feet of water every second..

Where does the water go? Is there a shoot or something that goes through on the other side of the dam? If I jump in does it work like a giant water slide? That is really cool!
