How did they fill the skate park with water?

Teenagers fall sick after swimming in makeshift pool they created by filling SKATE PARK with river water | Mail Online

talks about teenagers in Yorkshire going swimming in a makeshift swimming pool formed by filling a skate park with water from a local river.
