@thelakefiles: The South Fork Dam above Johnstown Pennsylvania failed on May 31 1889 after members of a private fishing club modified it years earlier in ways that reduced its overflow capacity and were never inspected. Over 2,200 people died in the flood that followed, warnings had been sent and ignored, and no member of the club that owned the dam was ever held legally responsible.

I have visited the Flood Museum and watched the movie about it, and also toured the area where the Club, Lake and Dam was located in South Fork area of Johnstown. That flood is still remembered in the town of Johnstown.

Wait there’s a lake that exists? I live 5 min from the old lake bed. No lake exists here anymore. If that damn dam didn’t break I would have grown up in a lake town..
