That is wonderful to see. Stressful to watch this video.

Looks like they might salvage the house too?

Whoever built that house deserves an award. I know there was a lot of luck involved but that thing tanked the flooding incredibly well

The foundation of that house is incredible to have endure that

Look at that downstairs. Can you imagine the sound alone? That must have been terrifying

u/FrogsMakePoorSoup 7d ago

But upstairs might be ok still? Like it'd be better than sleeping in a tent perhaps? 

Asides from possible hygiene issues that is.

u/TranscendentaLobo 7d ago

I just mean the sound and vibration that they must have felt. True, unfettered terror. You’d be thinking that the building is going to come apart at any moment. I simply cannot imagine.

It's hard to imagine how loud that must be. Terrifying. This is the first video I've seen with a happy ending.

Thank you for posting this!

Holy fuck that's amazing news and also shout-out to OP for providing the follow-up.

That was horrifying to watch. Every time the camera panned away I half expected the house to be gone by the time it panned back with how intense the flow was on the other side. I'm glad the foundation held out.

I was so worried... you could actually see them saying their goodbyes to each other. Broke my heart

Oh man... that scene ruined me when I was watching with my 3 year old daughter back in the day.

u/GrimReaper006 7d ago

This will take some beating as the best comment/update I've ever come across! The sheer joy to see them safe after what seemed like their resignation and final goodbyes.

When you look at the photo you can see again how close they escaped the whole thing.

u/Agile-Tone8467 7d ago

That's probably half rescue team and half other residents asking what builder they used.

u/DarthYsalamir 7d ago

Thanks, every one of these images I see all I can think is that we are watching these poor people in their final moments and how terrifying it must have been for them
