They always say, don't go running around a swimming pool. But also, it may be wise to not pick a fight by a massive dam. In the new music video for Imagine Dragons' latest single "I Bet My Life," two young rascals fight, forcing one into the Roosevelt Dam and sending him on a glorious, bizarre adventure
The two dastardly fellows, who are dressed in old-timey clothes despite the video being set in relatively modern times, get into a scuffle near the dam, sending one into the raging, flowing river.
The young gent is then sent into an expansive underground tunnel, to an otherworldly journey. The first stop is an underwater house that was seemingly abandoned years ago. Though the chairs are up on the table and everything is covered in protective white sheets, there is a cozy bed for which the boy can slumber on, before he wakes up... only to find himself in a boat.
From there, he sails away to freedom against the river until he tumbles over a waterfall. Though that only lands him in the hands of an adoring crowd.
But, the otherworldly adventure was just that, a dream. And the boy awakes at the base of the waterfall, in the arms of his enemy. Was it heaven? Was a life actually bet?
