The Most Dangerous Stretch of Water in the World: The Strid at Bolton Abbey, Yorkshire
Tom Scott
Tom Scott visits the Strid at Bolton Abbey in Yorkshire, a deceptively narrow stretch of river with dangerous currents. He covers its reputation and the 12th-century legend of the Boy of Egremont.
HN links it as the original, interesting video behind the 'deadliest river' stories and as an extreme river example.
