Hotel guests in British Columbia, Canada, were greeted by an unexpected waterfall on June 25 after a burst pipe caused water to stream down their corridor. Ben Young had checked into the hotel earlier that day and managed to capture a video of the astonishing scene.

Ben told Storyful: “30 minutes after we checked in, the fire alarm went off. We went to the lobby, and heard the pipe shooting water. People were rushing to grab stuff out of their rooms. Some were very upset and demanding refunds. The manager arrived about 20 minutes after the alarm and shut the water off. The hotel staff were up until about 2am sucking water out of the carpets with vacuums.” Credit: YouTube/W0RDBIGBIRD
