Where did all that water go?

In Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, Ethan Hunt must switch access cards in an underwater chamber. There is a large intake with gallons upon gallons of water flowing down it constantly, but no mention of an outlet for all that water. The only exit seems to be a closed hatch.

Best Answer

They were in a power station, and the water was flowing through a turbine. If you recall, when the "flood gates" at the top were opened, the water began circulating and Hunt had to start swimming against that current. The water would flow through the grate at the bottom of that chamber.

After the flood, the Bible says that Noah became a farmer and he planted a vineyard. He drank wine made from this vineyard, and got drunk; and lay "uncovered" within his tent.

How much water would it take to cover Mount Everest?

Genesis 7:20 says that the waters submerged the world's highest mountains under 15 cubits of water. That means that flood covered Mount Everest, which is 29,028 feet tall and getting a bit taller every day, with 22 feet of water. So I decided to do that math.
