  1. Or the dangers of the reduction/removal of public toilets in London.

    Though to be fair some people will always piss in the streets because some people are scum … sub human scum.

  2. I once had a car that had rust on it and to think I blamed it on the iron in metal reacting with oxygen and water. Now I feel stupid.

  3. I’m pretty sure that women’s piss will have a similar effect

  4. Lololol pissing myself …. Dude blates has a pee pee fetish

  5. What makes you think piss caused that and not everything else?

  6. I live closeby and I gotta admit, I piss there once a week. I might make it two now to speed up the process.

  7. Way back in the depths of time, I worked briefly in a metology lab for a company that built broadcast antennas.

    One of the tests we undertook was what treatment the metal would need to stand up to camel piss.

    Camel pee is alkeline unlike our own acid wee.

    The problem with urine causing corrosion is pretty well known, just look at a lamp post.

  8. I think it also happened with Albert Bridge’s timber decking back then, historians politely mention “dogs urine” but —

  9. You have so very little understanding of anything worthwhile 🤣

    You think due to the “gradient” urine collects downstream upto 20-30cm high?

    You also think the “bridge is compromised”… stick to your liberal arts degree or whatever you do…

  10. I love that you’re clearly at some social function and gone *nah fuck it, I’m gonna make some silly buggers about piss*

    ..

    “SEE YOU SOON! LOVELY TO SEE YOU!”

    😂😂

  11. Wouldn’t know masculinity if it’s slapped him in the face.

    Or are you a they/them muppet?

  12. I feel like i need to take a drink every time he says ‘men’s piss’. 😂😂😂

  13. Do you have any hobbies? Yes, I survey structures around London that are being degraded by men’s piss.

  14. Forwarded to my mate whose job it is inspecting railway bridges. I’ll copy back verbatim what he replies to this.

    “Hi mate, what do you think about this? Is it the structure itself or just the “wall plates” I don’t know. Is it that bad?”

    Edit
    He called me back so nothing to copy and paste. So I’ll paraphrase. It’s just the parapet which is the bit that stops you falling off the side. It’s just a metal plate riveted to a vertical which is attached to a girder which itself is probably a third of the size of the actual girders holding the bridge up. In the grand scheme of things it’s a very minor and normal defect. The problem with this is stones get kicked through into the trains below. If you know the chainage he can get it looked at. There will be a plate on it saying the bridge ID and how many miles and chains it is to Kings X like this

  15. It would take incredible aim or misfortune, but if you piss through that hole and it hits the overhead wires, you’re getting 25kv AC through ya. I believe, years ago a bloke pissed off a platform onto the track in the third rail area and got electrocuted with 750v.

    Moral of story, if you got to go, aviod railway lines

  16. so what you’re saying is that if the planet is ever invaded by sentient metal bridges that all men will have the opportunity to be superheroes?

  17. I’m a bridge engineer, pretty likely it’s doing fuck all to the bridge capacity. If that’s a road bridge then that’s just a parapet to stop things going over the edge, not to keep the bridge up (although clearly the job of keeping things from going over the edge is compromised).

    The panels are also just infill, I’d bet there are some chunky columns behind as well.

    Does piss corrode metal? I don’t know. Given it’s probably steel protected by an improperly maintained paintwork system, it’s probably not any worse for it than rain or the lovely salty water you get when they grit the roads. It’s really fucking common to have this kind of corrosion at the interface of pavement/road surfacing and a metal bridge and I’ve seen it on plenty where “men’s piss” isn’t cited as a concern of the bridge owner…

  18. To paraphrase the great Michael Caine in Get Carter; “Eyes like pissholes in the structure of the bridge over Kings Cross.”

  19. This bridge is absolutely fine. Nothing structural has been compromised whatsoever, not even the supports holding those plates. Urine a state of paranoia.

  20. I’m all for cleaning up our streets, but it’s not compromising the structural integrity of the bridge.

  21. So men who build that bridge and also paid most of that bridge are using it and corroding it. Ok got it. Also lets not pretend drunk women would not piss on walls if they had the ability to.

  22. The man making this video is so wrong, yet he speaks with such confidence.

  23. I wish I loved anything as much as he loves saying “men’s piss”.

  24. I went to Notting Hill Carnival once in my early 20s and there was piss everywhere on the side streets. Peak corrosive masculinity on show there.

  25. If only corrosive masculinity was always so easy to see… and the result so easy to repair
