I drove a 40 passenger buss for a gold mine for a few years, and the man in charge said something to me that has stuck in my brain forever! "You are making decisions for 40 people! Make sure that your decisions are good ones!" One time on the way home, one of the other busses blew up the engine. He was right in the middle of the road. I was behind him, so he called me on the radio, and asked me to pick up his passengers. It was also very very slick and icy. I picked up his 40 passengers and they got on my buss. I now had 80 people onboard. There was a mountain that we had to go over on the way to town. There was a semi attempting to climb the first grade, so I stopped and waited to see if he made it. The buss was absolutely quiet. Nobody said anything. The semi did not make it, and backed down to the bottom. When he was out of the way, I proceeded to go up the hill. I think that the extra weight of all 80 people helped me, because I never slipped or slid. I got a lot of shoulder pats as everyone got off. I was driving to work one day in a ground blizzard. I was only going 20 MPH, and I was going from road marker post to road marker post. You could see nothing else. Some lady behind me asked in a stressed out voice, "How can you see?" I replied, "I thought that YOU could see." Some people have no sense of humor. LOL
LOL !!! I'm a Floridian. Always have been. There's no amount of money that anybody could pay me to drive in conditions like that !!! While stationed in Germany with my 1st husband, ( on our 2nd tour of 3 years) we had a blizzard. The following morning, he had to report to the little base he was assigned to. I needed to keep the car, in case of an emergency, while he was in the field for the next 2-3 weeks. We lived about 30 miles off-post in a very hilly/mountainous area with our 2y.o. daughter. So, with the trunk of our little '79 Mustang II (what a joke...a "Mustang" with a 4-cylinder engine is actually just a "Maverick", if you ask me) full of his TA50. (field supplies/cold weather gear), and, him driving (he's from Michigan), off to base we went. It was easier, but, not exactly easy, going than coming back, with a Yankee at the wheel and a trunkful of extra weight, as compared to a Floridian at the wheel with NO weight on the rear axle. After he got all of his gear out of the trunk, I KNEW it was going to be an issue getting back out of town, because I 1st had to climb an enormous uphill grade of probably 45° for the 1st couple of miles, and, without all the extra weight in the trunk, so, we (my baby girl and I) sat and waited for the snowplows to come through. Once they had, I started driving towards the edge of town, and, started up the hill. The further up the hill I got, the closer to the straight drop-off (at least 50ft) at the edge of the road I slid. It was plowed, but, slick as snot. I got about halfway up, turned around at a gas station, and, headed back down. The further up the hill, the longer the straight drop-off at the edge of the road (on 1 side, the other side, except for where the gas station was, was straight up, so, we were at the mid-point of a straight drop-off of about 100ft; like a cliff sticking out of a cliff). I got back to the Motor Pool, where my 1st husband was just getting out of Formation, and, he came over to the car and said, "I thought you left". I told him that I had, but didn't make it to the top of the 1st hill because I was sliding too close to the edge. "And", I said, "I need a chauffeur to drive us, in the Mustang, out to Namborn, (the village we lived in) with somebody in a big boat of a car (it was about 1984, so, us Americans still had plenty of those on the road, even in Germany), to follow us and push us up Freisen Hill (an even BIGGER hill, but swervey like a giant slithering snake; still with more mountain on 1 side, and, straight drop-off on the other side...not even the GERMANS with SNOWCHAINS could make it up THAT one half the time), drop us and the 'Stang off, and, ride back to the base in the big boat of a car." That was exactly what it took, too. Freisen Hill, after a good amount of snow was on the ground, (6 inches+) was a two lane, just like the rest of the drive, but, going ACROSS Freisen Hill, there were ALWAYS 4-cars across after a hard snow fall; a line of cars on each side of the road, that couldn't make it all the way to the top, and, lanes going both ways trying to creap to the top, and, down the other side. If the big boat of an American car hadn't been there, even with a Yankee driving, to push us up and over, we wouldn't have made it. I SHOULD probably have warned him, though, that there'd be 4 cars across on the other side. We started sliding towards them, but luckily, didn't make contact with any of them. (Oh, and, I forgot to mention that the 'Stang was a 5-speed manual tranny, which I think always makes stuff like this easier, because down-shifting = extra power !!) My 1st husband had no compassion for my lack of experience driving through the mountains after a Blizzard; I had to go talk to the 1SG to ask him for a driver and a big boat of a car to follow us and push us up and over. The 1SG gave me exactly what I asked for without any argument. I had my baby in my arms when I told him what I needed.
@toscatattertail9813 I guess you’re not smart enough to understand that no method of driving would have prevented that bus from being swept away. The depth of the water and speed of the current assured it. I hope you never make the mistake of thinking driving diagonal will save you.
Anyone remember the Klamath at Christmas time in 1964? I was on the side of that canyon that is shown on the internet. Rocks the size of cars were rolling down that canyon. The noise was deafening. The sight of that powerful water was unforgettable.
This video is incorrect about Ladakh in many ways. 1. Ladakh didn't experience floods due to poor infrastructure. Ladakh is present in the Himalayas. So, floods are common due to monsoons and the meltdown of glaciers. There is hardly anything anyone can do about it. 2. There is not much arable land in Ladakh. The food shortage after the floods was due to the disconnection of the hilly areas which are connected only through roads that got washed away due to floods. It is not due to poverty or not due to crop damage.
If I am not mistaken, the bonus footage of Katrina the first placed they showed was on the landmass between Louisiana and Alabama as described by the news, actually known as Mississippi where massive damage was done and entire towns were leveled to the ground. That looked like the scene just north of the Gulfport harbor. They talk about New Orleans because of the levees breaking but they were on the west side of the storm where the north winds pushed all the water south into the city. On the other side of the storm water was pushed on land and flooded places almost all the way to Florida. The I 10 bridge over Mobile Bay was covered with the flood waters. The I 10 bridge that went over the Pascagoula river was mostly washed away and took years to rebuild. Months after the storm they opened the West bound land to 2 way traffic while they still were trying to repair the East bound side. Going across the bridge then was a scary and bumpy ride because it wasn't fully repaired, just enough to allow traffic through. Communications were knock out over much of the area and for a while it appeared that Pascagoula was gone because there were no communications coming from there. The beach side and the shipyard were severely damaged along with everything that was remotely close to the water but it turned out that the main phone/communication lines went through Gulfport where the hub was severely damaged and completely lost the lines going towards Pascagoula. People were stopped at the edge of the disaster area and were not allowed into the whole region because of the storm and with so much damage to the infrastructure people could not contact loved ones and were relying on the news to give any description concerning the areas their loved ones lived. News reached me several days after the storm about my children trying to get in touch with us and that they were planning on coming down to see for themselves. Luckily I was able to climb onto a high location with a cell phone where I was able to catch a signal from a distant tower and let them know that we were alright and for them just to stay away. We were living in conditions with no electricity, running water, food chains to provide food to the area, and almost everything else that you would expect in a civilized region. We lost electricity which meant no A/C and many people died because of the heat exposure and wow it was hot! Not that I was upset that most of the news was focused on the western side of the storm damage but you can tell I am still passionate about how they left out the east side where the real storm damage was done where they love to show damage from Mississippi and claim it was in New Orleans because the pictures there look like hurricane damage but the big story was NOLA so they pass those pictures off as being there. By no means am I trying to take away from the damage our brothers and sisters suffered in NOLA because they did suffer and their leadership did a really poor job helping them out. But if you look at pictures of the flooding you see roof tops sticking out over the flood waters but NOLA was built mostly below water level and without the pumps they would stay flooded. Over in Mississippi you didn't see house sticking out of the water when Katrina was there because there were no houses LEFT in the flooded areas. Everything there was killed in those hours when the storm arrived and passed by until it was gone that evening. New Orleans was just really beginning their struggle for survival then as Lake Pontchartrain and the Mississippi River came pouring into the city. It was bad all around. I was also humbled by people's response to help all of us in the disaster area but I was truly touched when aid came from Indonesia who had less then a year earlier lost over a hundred thousand people to a tsunami. The loss of life here was miscue compared to what they suffered. I know I was long winded and I thank you reading to this point. The most important thing I hope anyone learns from this video which I'm trying to impress my feelings on it is to never underestimate the power of Mother Nature. She can be one wicked lady when riled up.
Just realize almost all news its this way, doctored and altered to fit a narrative. I learned this first hand from the 1989 earthquake in the San Francisco bay area.
@LetsTalkAboutPrepping It is a running joke around here because that is how the news described us. We've seen it in their news maps and in articles... By the way I live about 12 miles off the coast line get lot's of wind action during those storms.
I agree 100% so many historical homes and landmarks that can never be replaced are gone forever. I live a good 150 miles from the coast and we were without electricity for almost 3 weeks. Every tree in my yard was uprooted. It’s something I hope I never have to experience again. Cheers from Meridian
@donaldmcmillan5529 Which reminds me of Camille (probably way before your time). Basically it just followed 49 north for a long, long way. There were trees north of Hattiesburg that were killed by the amount of salt water that storm dumped. Regarding the Katrina damage, if you look around just a wee bit, there are photos of the remains of the I-10 piers (the sticky-up parts of the bridge). Before the completion of I-10, the way to get from Florida to Mississippi through Mobile was over "The Causeway" which was right at sea level. Any kind of solid rain, and it flooded. During Camille (IIRC), it was several feet underwater and took months to repair... which led to the completion of I-10 as elevated highway across Mobile Bay (Damn the torpedoes!).
They used a lot of stock video (not in Arizona) when talking about Flagstaff. The river that they showed with low water dams is not even in Arizona. The area below the Museum Fire had never flooded this badly before the fire (in recorded history).
yeah i thought i heard that too but it was 2015 think the narrator may be using a voice changer and thats why it sounded like 2050 have been noticing the same voice in multiple video's but that could just be these ears of mine
Looking at the map, it appears that they are equally distant from the center, offset north and south. Isn't flagstaff considered "high plains desert "? As an idahoan, our definition of mountainous areas is likely different
@goldenegg1063 no excuse, CDL drivers are trained. You don't just go to DMV and ask for a class b license with passenger enforcement. Not just a stupid mistake, they should have had more charges and they license revoked
@DubYaJsWorldyeah i see what you mean . Jail times a bit harsh unless the child died, in which case it can be manslaughter . But take the lisence away for sure and fully investigate the training they had
Because most of these events tend to happen in under-developed countries, which tend to have poor living conditions. Those people can't just move on a whim, because, they don't have the money to relocate and/or they live somewhere that makes moving very difficult.
@dwarfymcgee I do appreciate what you're saying, but just as I'm reading your comment about under-developed countries, the video is on the part that was filmed by the Arizona Department of Transportation, and I think I've damaged a rib 😂🤣😆😅😂😅🤣😆
@nobody Yes, they do talk about the U.S in this video, but I was mainly commenting on these tragedies all across the world and that most of the time, the most damage happens in under-developed countries. Obviously they have better measures in Arizona because they have the resources to help minimize the damages from such events.
Many places the rivers are people's livelihood and with people's arrogance as well as ignorance many think they can control nature thus inviting people to live right next to the water so they don't have to travel far to work or get the best view. For some reason they don't pay attention to the geography of the area and realize what made it like it is. Rivers flood and the land was shaped by the flood waters which allow them to spread out until the waters recede. So people build in these flood zones and also build dikes and levies to try to contain a force that only gets stronger the higher it is forced to rise. When these forces can no longer be contained it spells disaster to anyone who lives near or especially below the areas that were prone to flooding. Mankind is the only animal that believes it can control Mother Nature because they have had some minor and limited success. Wow, are they wrong! The only way to truly survival all of that is to learn to live in harmony with nature and respect her boundaries.
@paulhomsy2751 Numerous sources say Flagstaff is in Northern Az. Here's one example "Flagstaff ( / ˈflæɡ.stæf / FLAG-staf) is a city in, and the county seat of, Coconino County in northern Arizona,"
These videos are interesting, but you should stop using unrelated stock footage as filler. They don’t add anything and stupid and cheesy. I would rather see a retreat of related footage than stupid stock shots.
Agreed…. The padded out videos make more RUclips/Google 💰 cash. Just like Hunter Biden’s videos of him Molestering his little 12 year old niece Natalie. Every few minutes earns 🔯 Jewcifer Cash Monies.
Because most reasonable adults know that human life is more valuable than animal life. Any and all rescue attempts should, common sense, be focused on people. Once you have saved every human life then if you find it reasonable, risk your life rescuing animals. go for it
Pakistan is NOT short of money, it has a space programme and a nuclear weapons programme so the problem is not lack of cash, but the Government spending what it has on the wrong things.
@shreeveda it is important to research if you don't know something so you can learn. Better than commenting and showing your ignorance. Pakistan began their space program clear back in 1961. They do have the amount of nuclear weapons mentioned.
That place in Ladakh is in India's Kashmir illegally occupied by Pakistan. It's called Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (POK). Indian government is planning to get it back very soon. Beautiful place.
Dios usa la naturaleza no hay madre Dios el no tiene esposa el dijo. hagamos el hombre a nuestra semejanza habla el Padre con el Hijo Y El Espíritu Santo ELLOS CREARON LA NATURALEZA NO CREO NADA POR TODO LO A CREADO DIOS TODA LA NATURALEZA ESTÁ SOMETIDA A DIOS EN CREADOR AMÉN
New Orleans should have been abandoned and moved upstream in it's entirety. The whole shabang is under sea level. Lake Pontchartrain could rupture and flush that entire city out to the Gulf of Mexico
Happens everytime there is heavy rain!! Cold front from the mountains, really, I thought mountains were hotter than the desert!! As for Flagstaff, AZ, I was there when it snowed in July, so what?
Whats strange is all my life when there was floods they just left the water there instead of making stackable containers with submersible pumps in the bottom to contain the water Makes no sense at all

Man that bus driver ….. never take a risk with other peoples children …
The driver was not smart enough to know to drive at a diagonal towards the current to accomodate for the " push" from the force of the water.
Democrats,AKA PEDOS,do it every day in our public schools....
@toscatattertail9813 Sure, sure..... sure, that would have made it safe for the child. Eikel.
@toscatattertail9813 I guess you’re not smart enough to understand that no method of driving would have prevented that bus from being swept away. The depth of the water and speed of the current assured it. I hope you never make the mistake of thinking driving diagonal will save you.
Could've been his.
In all floods, the people standing on the side watching, you’re crazy! Move! The land can and does collapse and will sweep you away, too! God Bless🦋
1:00 All I could think of was "GO BARREL, GO!" And than "Aww" when it got swept away
I like the flood-surfing oil drum in Chile and then he turns up in Arizona as well.
YES,that barrel roll was awesome for sure!
'
very beautifully floody on the river...
thank rainy rainy pour the alot of water on the hill / land / mountain...
keep rainy allday - allnight
The barrel keeping ahead of the Chile flood was pretty cool
Anyone remember the Klamath at Christmas time in 1964? I was on the side of that canyon that is shown on the internet. Rocks the size of cars were rolling down that canyon. The noise was deafening. The sight of that powerful water was unforgettable.
Thanks for the info, I'm going to look for that vid. 🙂
@Herb Ward did you mean Dallas, Texas?
@Herb Ward the reason I was asking is I lived in Texas when it happened, my family was on vacation in California.
@kensanity178 The Dalles is a city in Oregon.
@susanolson3611 I should have know that. My grandmother was from Medford.
This video is incorrect about Ladakh in many ways. 1. Ladakh didn't experience floods due to poor infrastructure. Ladakh is present in the Himalayas.

And Ladakh is in India; not in baltistan!
Yes - it was funny when they said Ladakh in Baltistan.. I wonder if they meant Baltistan..
Wow - that was unparalleled destruction.
You're right flood is very dangerous it can destroy a very large number of buildings. Greetings from Miami I am Susana obeid from where are you from
My heart felt what they were feeling! So scary and heartbreaking I'm so sorry!
Just DONT CRY THEM A RIVER!!!...they dont need that!!!!.....:>)
Thank you 🙏 for great 👍 video 🎥☔️
I live in Big sky in Montana (no to far from west gate of Yellowstone) that flooding was F ing crazy... Some roads won't be used again
Where is a safe place to build a cabin. OMG
@DA-ji4tf not next to a river, its pretty easy
Chilling

Worse than that is no one gives a schytte....so sad....:>(
@largemember yeah how did you know about that
@4:31 "Childrens" were held in school late... 😳
Its weird seeing the Flagstaff one. I haven't even recovered financially, yet here it is on the internet.
# 2 : "There's a flash flood coming ! I know ! Let's run
DOWN THE SLOPE !"
Plenty of fire wood!!
This video was used all overall this year
I’m glad he said the driver is likely done driving school buses.
Oh a video
2050 in Chile 💀
yeah i thought i heard that too but it was 2015 think the narrator may be using a voice changer and thats why it sounded like 2050 have been noticing the same voice in multiple video's but that could just be these ears of mine
Hurricane Katrina was just an example of urban improvement.
If you build a city below sea level, it will get wet every time. Holland found a great of handling that issue. Louisiana, not so much.
1:00 - FIREWOOD DELIVERY!!!
😅
GO BARREL GO!
07:14 sounds like a next door motel room
Flagstaff is northern Arizona, Phoenix is in the middle of the state 3 hours south of Flagstaff. It's high in the mountain, not desert at all. FYI.
Looking at the map, it appears that they are equally distant from the center, offset north and south. Isn't flagstaff considered "high plains desert "?
As an idahoan, our definition of mountainous areas is likely different
On the AZ map it looks just north of central. It may be referred to as "north" in relation to Phoenix but it is more central than north.
It is near the Grand Canyon at 7000ft elevation, in pine forests. I-40 runs by it. The San Francisco peaks 11k ft are by Flag.
The tallest peak is 12, 633 feet.
First love da vids btw
The day a bus became a boat.
That bus driver should have got jail time,and the child's father should have sued the school board
I would be livid if that was my child🤬😡🤬
There is the possibility its the first time the driver has ever driven through flood water,
.
and it was a genuine stupid mistake 🤷♂️
@goldenegg1063 no excuse, CDL drivers are trained. You don't just go to DMV and ask for a class b license with passenger enforcement. Not just a stupid mistake, they should have had more charges and they license revoked
@DubYaJsWorldyeah i see what you mean
.
Jail times a bit harsh unless the child died, in which case it can be manslaughter
.
But take the lisence away for sure and fully investigate the training they had
The american way. Sue them and threw somebody in jail. 😂
Greetings from the BIG SKY.
Even the DIRT ran away.
1st one what do you think the speed is?
oh sh*t youre talking thru out this vid? X thumbs down nope
I like the barrel leading the flood in chile
They say that barrel is still out there floating around to this day….
Terrifying but so interesting. Thank you. February, 2023'
Ladak is a part of India and not in Blochistan as the person making the video has said by mistake
👍👍👍
😮😮😮😮 pulsera queda muy feo déjame un poquito de arancha que es un poquito de Arantxa
Good video but if I never heard about Katrina ever again it would be too soon.
Very efficient way of raking the forest and delivering firewood to the needy (once it dries out).
Is there a glitch in the matrix? Did they show the same footage twice?
Why people living in such dangerous places?
Because most of these events tend to happen in under-developed countries, which tend to have poor living conditions. Those people can't just move on a whim, because, they don't have the money to relocate and/or they live somewhere that makes moving very difficult.
@dwarfymcgee I do appreciate what you're saying, but just as I'm reading your comment about under-developed countries, the video is on the part that was filmed by the Arizona Department of Transportation, and I think I've damaged a rib 😂🤣😆😅😂😅🤣😆
It’s fun…..
@nobody Yes, they do talk about the U.S in this video, but I was mainly commenting on these tragedies all across the world and that most of the time, the most damage happens in under-developed countries. Obviously they have better measures in Arizona because they have the resources to help minimize the damages from such events.
Many places the rivers are people's livelihood and with people's arrogance as well as ignorance many think they can control nature thus inviting people to live right next to the water so they don't have to travel far to work or get the best view. For some reason they don't pay attention to the geography of the area and realize what made it like it is. Rivers flood and the land was shaped by the flood waters which allow them to spread out until the waters recede. So people build in these flood zones and also build dikes and levies to try to contain a force that only gets stronger the higher it is forced to rise. When these forces can no longer be contained it spells disaster to anyone who lives near or especially below the areas that were prone to flooding. Mankind is the only animal that believes it can control Mother Nature because they have had some minor and limited success. Wow, are they wrong! The only way to truly survival all of that is to learn to live in harmony with nature and respect her boundaries.

New Orleans look very scary...level with the ocean
...in the northernmost area of "Chilleh"?
Surprisingly no one's trying to run across it
4:31: 'childrens'. Um, whatever!
Glad I'm not the only one who caught that
thi guy is literally underworld
Flagstaff is not in the center of Arizona. It is north of the center just as Phoenix is south of the center.
I hope u see floods in Saudi Arabia .
I love rivers coming back to life after being dead for months.
How's that barrel rolling in front of that Mud Flow. Fuckin Hilarious😂🤣👍🏽🐢
wow...who gets to harvest the wood at the end?......would love to see that........where it all piles up....
Where are the scientists from the makers of Pepto Bismal? Surely they can stop these mud and debris flows.
Flagstaff is in northern Arizona, not the middle of the state. As climate change ramos up we will see more powerful storms and flash floods.
It's just north of central, not north. Look it up on a map. To call it central is more accurate.
Climate Change Ramos; Popular Lounge music band from Mexico:)
@paulhomsy2751 Numerous sources say Flagstaff is in Northern Az. Here's one example "Flagstaff ( / ˈflæɡ.stæf / FLAG-staf) is a city in, and the county seat of, Coconino County in northern Arizona,"
wasser hat so eine kraft, ich wäre sofort auf einen berg gestiegen
Tiny floods compared to many in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh
These videos are interesting, but you should stop using unrelated stock footage as filler. They don’t add anything and stupid and cheesy. I would rather see a retreat of related footage than stupid stock shots.
Speak for yourself
Thanks Karen
@Moleanimationchannel 😆 it's momma Karen 😂
Agree, too much stock footage also adds too much noise to the story.
Agreed….
The padded out videos make more RUclips/Google 💰 cash.
Just like Hunter Biden’s videos of him Molestering his little 12 year old niece Natalie.
Every few minutes earns 🔯 Jewcifer Cash Monies.
Cataclysms can stops if people will try Kundalini aweking and free sahajayoga meditation.
the barrel in the beginning tho
I see I have animal family about this! I understand people before animals but it still breaks my heart and hurts my soul!
ho3w can it b4e a FLASH flood when there is 100s of people lining up watching.
What causes mud floods to happened in a dry land?
monsson rains
Water
Topsoil becomes like a sponge and then will let go.
1:46....wasn't mud flow it was debris flow
@hime273 You got it
Earth is not a mother.
All physical things have no consciousness and must react according to design.
God is the best explanation of creation.
Oh my, the smell must be heavenly😀
We are sick of the wet weather
I am pretty sure we are still in 2022...
The bare minimum and maximum for a great video of raw footage is the footage, uncut.
Why does no one ever mention how many animals losing their lives 🤷🏼♀️ they just seem to abandon them without a care & yes mainly farmers!
That's the first thing I think about because they are normally the first hit and the hardest hit to recover.
Bro what are they going to do? You can’t force a cow to evacuate in a hurry it weighs a thousand pounds.
Because most reasonable adults know that human life is more valuable than animal life. Any and all rescue attempts should, common sense, be focused on people. Once you have saved every human life then if you find it reasonable, risk your life rescuing animals. go for it
@maryduhon9769 black lives matter

Ladakh is in India not in Baltisthan.
In Japan they call them frash froods.
ahhh Underworld???
LADAKH IN INDIA. NOT IN BALTISTAN
Tuhan
1:50 that barrel...
I'm not sure Yellowstone qualifes as a 'flash flood'.
A note about the flood in New Orleans....anybody who would build a city below sea level in a storm zone then fill it with Dim-ocrats is a genius.
When new Orleans was built more than 200 years ago, it wasn't below sea level. The ground sank because of the sheer weight of the city.
typical American, thinks that a natural disaster is because some political party got elected, seams that cause and effect don't have to make sense
Pakistan is NOT short of money, it has a space programme and a nuclear weapons programme so the problem is not lack of cash, but the Government spending what it has on the wrong things.
Sounds like every major power these days. Misappropriating money is a governments bread and butter.
Please be in touch with reality. Space program? 🤣😂😆. Nuclear weapons program? 🤣😁😂.
@shreeveda Pakistan has between 110-120 nuclear weapons
@shreeveda it is important to research if you don't know something so you can learn. Better than commenting and showing your ignorance. Pakistan began their space program clear back in 1961. They do have the amount of nuclear weapons mentioned.
They are short of many other things, though. Try thinking.
No barricade seen in last video.
That place in Ladakh is in India's Kashmir illegally occupied by Pakistan. It's called Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (POK). Indian government is planning to get it back very soon. Beautiful place.
Where is Chilay?
Ladakh is different from baltistan, and is in India.
Very good vid untill the class with kidds in masks!
@8:20 God: Time to modernize
landslides and floods are easily happen in the areas with mountains, that's why seldomly heard UK has these disasters.
Too much narrative.
Dios usa la naturaleza no hay madre Dios el no tiene esposa el dijo. hagamos el hombre a nuestra semejanza habla el Padre con el Hijo Y El Espíritu Santo ELLOS CREARON LA NATURALEZA NO CREO NADA POR TODO LO A CREADO DIOS TODA LA NATURALEZA ESTÁ SOMETIDA A DIOS EN CREADOR AMÉN
SO VERY GRATEFUL THAT WASN’T MY CHILD ON THAT BUS.BECAUSE SOMEONE WOULD HAVE TO POST BAIL MONEY FOR ME.
New Orleans should have been abandoned and moved upstream in it's entirety. The whole shabang is under sea level. Lake Pontchartrain could rupture and flush that entire city out to the Gulf of Mexico
The images are great, but the authoritarian narration not so much.
We don’t need to hear facts and numbers. We just wanna see the floods.
Happens everytime there is heavy rain!! Cold front from the mountains, really, I thought mountains were hotter than the desert!! As for Flagstaff, AZ, I was there when it snowed in July, so what?
0:58 That's my trash can!!!
Jhoimor
Whats strange is all my life when there was floods they just left the water there instead of making stackable containers with submersible pumps in the bottom to contain the water
Makes no sense at all
"Childrens"? Is that the plural-plural (something I just made up) of 'child'?
horrible bus driver, they should have got their license revoked
What makes you think he didn't?
Hey , LADAKH IN INDIA , not Ladakh in BALTISTAN
