Summary

Description
English: An abandoned metal oil well has items (rock, wood block, metal saw blade, mud clump) thrown down it with interesting sound results. Items fall approximately 500 feet before splashing in water (215 feet - 65 meters).
Français : Un homme anglophone présente rapidement un ancien puits de forage pétrolier. Lors de sa complétion dans les années 1970, le tuyau plongeait jusqu'à une profondeur de 2 400 pieds (730 mètres), alors qu'aujourd'hui sa profondeur totale serait de 1 300 pieds (400 mètres). La partie à l'air libre mesurerait 500 pieds et l'eau dans le fonds formerait une colonne d'une hauteur de 215 pieds (65 mètres).
Par la suite, l'homme lance des objets (morceau de bois, lame de scie à métaux, pierre et morceau de terre séchée) dans le tuyau vertical et enregistre le bruit qu'ils font en tombant. Les objets descendent en percutant à plusieurs reprises les parois métalliques et s'écrasent dans l'eau.
Română: Câteva obiecte (o bucată de lemn, o lamă de ferăstrău, o piatră și o bucată de pământ) sunt aruncate într-o sondă de țiței abandonată. Aceasta a fost săpată pe la sfârșitul anilor '70, adâncimea inițială fiind de 2400 de picioare (aprox. 730 de metri), ajungând acum la 1300 de picioare (aprox. 400m) iar adâncimea apei fiind de 215 picioare (aprox. 65m).
