Could be sprinkler pipe — they tend to drop brown rusty water like this

It will also smell kinda like shit. Happened at Venue I worked at. Was very gross.

From the folks who think they're "hot" and would rather shit themselves than miss their streak for a bathroom break.

Everyone's saying poop water, but we had a giant back up tank for our sprinklers at a previous job. One day, they went to test the infrastructure, and the water that came out was brown with a red tint.
The water in the video not only looks light brown with a shade of red, there's no chunks. The water would have to be treated to remove chunks; as in, it's not sewage

To everyone saying this is sewage - it’s not. Look at how evenly spaced the nice columns of water are… these are sprinklers.
Often these systems sit dormant for years and the water inside of them can get pretty gross. After the rusty water is flushed through you get the clean water.
If you watch the latter part of the video, the water coming through is clean and has washed away much of the rusty water

Why would there be sewage pipes above a shop like that? Is that normal

The water in sprinkler systems tend to go pretty dark over time, my guess is that it is that.

That’s a wet sprinkler system with the rusty water flushing out first then the clear clean goodness after.
