Could you imagine being on top of that thing when they open it up to regulate the water for the dam? I don't want to ride that roller coaster ride!

A glory hole is used when a dam is at full capacity and water needs to be drained from the reservoir. It is the largest spillway of this type in the world and consumes 14,400 cubic feet of water every second.
