The largest drain hole in the world
Fogonazos: The largest drain hole in the world
Located in northern California, the Monticello Dam’s is the largest morning glory spillway all over the world. This funnel-shaped outlet, allows water to bypass the dam when it reaches capacity, as it swallows a rate of 48,400 cubic feet per second (1370 m³/s).

there are a ton of pictures of that drain hole and a bunch of others, looks like some serious power would be behind the water as it comes out @ the bottom of the dam
