Crews are repairing the mess following a broken pipe in Jefferson County.

It looked as if old faithful relocated to the Ken Caryl neighborhood.

A massive water main break shot up into the sky and all over homes on this street. 

West Metro Fire said it happened early Sunday morning.

Although it's a deluge of water, firefighters say the homes weren't too badly damaged.

It's a different story for the street though; chunks of pavement and rocks shot from the ground and landed on cars. The debris even broke one car's sunroof.
