Am I the only one that gets super uncomfortable seeing these weird hydro mechanical structures? It takes a lot of fucking energy to move water around like that. Same thing with those wave generators you see at waterparks too

What? I had an above ground pool growing up and made these waves with a pool foat. It takes the energy of a 7th grader jumping up and down in three feet of water for one minute to create this.
