Noreaster creating havoc along the coast in Ma. In Scituate, massive waves crash against seawall and into homes damaging many. Epic drone shots of waves, water running into the streets of town, flooded homes and SOT with a great lady that sustained damage to her home but would never leave this "great place".

FOOLISH MAN BUILD HIS HOUSE UPON THE SAND.
pfffft thats a great rhyme
Exactly
In any day this homes will be in the ocean..
It's actually all rock, but nice try.
Yeah, people with a lot of $$ chance it.
A wise man build his house on a mountain (God/Jesus Christ).
😀
I have a friend she lived close to the sea and its sometimes flooded she has to move many times out until the flood is gone and i m like thanks God that you gave me the wisdome to not live close to the water😅.
'It's a great place to live', once you get use to sleeping in scuba gear.
Lol
Nice
Lolololololol
😆 true!!
So funny!
In 1991 the perfect storm washed away the house I was living in, my gf and I stayed until the waves were crashing over the house, I was mesmerized until a wave picked up a boulder and smashed the sliding glass doors that led to the seawall, what a spot, right on the ocean, Marshfield, Mass. we ended up stuck in our car all night, with a front row seat,, watching the waves take the house, waves were crashing over the telephone pole wires, blue sparks running up and down the lines.
Finally a channel without all the loud music and using natural sounds this place looks amazing .
Thanks for the upload 😀
Incrível para perder tudo que tem e acordar boiando.
Amazingly Stupid is how it looks to me. 😉
And not filmed by some idiot in vertical strip!
that's one helluva drone to stay steady in that wind.
I was going to say the same thing, its steady in that wind!
For real!
guessing the picture is steady-cam'd, bet the drone is flippin and floppin
Professionals use a gyro nowadays.
That's what I was thinking!
Just like here in SC. The people who live inland get their rates jacked up every time a storm hits the coast. I don't have anything against rich people. I wouldn't mind being one but , not a stupid one.
Myrtle Beach is a shit hole 🕳
You probably wouldn't be a stupid one.
In Charleston, the downtown Battery gets smashed during even the lightest of storms. All those 2 million dollar refurbished Civil War/Colonial homes get flooded and they still live in it
Insurance premiums are assessed according to 'flood zones.' You pay for where you live, others do not. If you can't afford the premiums, you can't afford the house.
It’s impressive how the drone doesn’t get blown away, or blown into the sea.
This footage is incredible.
I second that - fantastic video!!
That's a great place to leave.
You mean it is time to leave?
Yea ur right leave right now. 😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh really
lol
Stop building so close to the water 😜🤔
Exactly. Its just a matter of time before they get washed away so I will take pleasure in watching that happen.
@@scotty6124 why would you take pleasure in that? Insurance will replace but we taxpayers who pay RIN or homeowners are bearing the costs.
@Hydin BidenAhhh but there is where you're wrong! ALL citizens of the United States are paying for these idiots who build so close to the ocean because the insurance companies raise the rates on ALL of us to make up for paying out the rich stupid people who live so close to water. If you want to live that close to the water go buy a damn boat and live on it!
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
I live in coastal NC but on the land side of the intercoastal waterway. My insurance rates are minimal compared to those that live on the island side of the waterway because my probability for storm damage is low. Also no one is allowed to build on the ocean front in some towns. There has to be dunes and a certain amount of footage between the high tide mark and the first row of homes to the extent that you can't see homes from the beach. Then you have the entitled ones like these vacation homeowners in my area also. SMH.
I spent many summers at my aunt's house on 32 Lighthouse Rd. In Scituate. The house is shown in this video. Great memories.
Did this ever happen when you were there? What was it like?
@@PseudoEmpathy There were extreme high tides and winter storms. Nothing of this magnitude. That's scary weather.
hmm.. i watched the video 3x, i didn't see your aunt's little house with the "freedom" sign on it at the corner of lighthouse and Rebecca. Seems like they spent a lot of time on Turner Rd
I love that area! I live a few miles west of there. The last time we went, it was a very high tide and there was water under the stilts of a lot of the homes on lighthouse and Rebecca roads
Wow, those houses blocked everyone's ocean view.
Who on earth builds that close to the ocean? Just saying, that is ludicrous from where l am. All that money spent to get washed away......😳
More mo eyes than brains
fema hud the government insurance companys what was $2000 is now 2.5 milllion as the saying goes the billion ars chase out the million ars but the middle keeps paying the brunt i seen it happen with my own eyes
You can’t get flood insurance for these homes. And home owners is very high. I would bet that they are owned outright. And the people who own them know the risk
They have awesome views and fresh sea air when the weather good !!! Must be awesome most of the year!!!
@@jamesdaple9951 Living that close to the ocean is no picnic. The salt spray ruins everything in and outside the house. Anything metal will rust or corrode, it gets on everything inside the house....like an oily film. It is murder on any electronics. If you have a car it will eat your car from inside out as well as outside in a very short time. It also kills house paint and roofing. Compared to the damage from salt in snow belt areas, this is WAY worse. I moved from California to Michigan. No Salt, No Sharks, No worries
There's no way I would even stay there during the storm.
Imagine hearing the washer stop, going downstairs, and finding the laundry room flooded all the way to the ceiling.
Put Trump in there
I love an ocean view, preferably from the top of a cliff!
Love living along coastal Massachusetts! Gloucester native myself! Seen some seriously big waves up this way! 60+ footers
Looks like lovely weather to go sit out on the patio!
Just imagine waking up one day and your whole neighborhood is floating down into the ocean.
imagine there Was no water
welcome to florida
😭
There needs to be laws against building this close to the ocean !!!!!!
They are used to it I live near there
She says: this is great place to live
She's insane❗
She's not wrong I've here since I was 8 just not as close to the water as she is lol there are parts of this town that are far enough away from the water to be able to enjoy this town even when storms hit. 🙂 this town is a great place to live, just dont live so damn close to the water that's the key to enjoying this great town 🙂
She's not wrong, I've lived here since I was 8 yrs old *
Yeah, federal funds provide flood insurance because no private insurer would be able to withstand the losses. So she likes living someplace that the rest of the country subsidizes. Greedy.
"This is a great place to live" sounds like she is trying to sell
She can keep it 😆
I live here , in Scituate, just not as close to the water as she does , lol Scituate is a lovely town very safe. And fun in summer and great schools , it's an ideal place to raise a family if you have the money to. It's very expensive to live here not counting just beach front property. But if you have the means to live in Scituate, you will love it this town will grow on you🙂 I have lived here since 8 yrs old gone to school here and grew up here and aside from the storms and flooding which is when you live nearer to the water of course you will storm damage and flooding but there other parts of Scituate that are nice enough far away enough from the water to be able to enjoy your life here without the flooding 🙂
Yeah pretty cool place to live, I’ve only replaced multiple rooms in the house multiple times.
“Oh that mold smell?”
“Nah, none of that here!”
It’s beautiful but I wouldn’t like to leave there.
I think the guy is walking away
Thinking the same thing🌊🤔
How can you even enjoy something like that.. one minute you're going to bed next minute your in the ocean.. geez people.. reality check..🤔🤔
It doesn't happen out of the blue... we (Bostonian, just north of Scituate) we knew the storm was coming for a week and we knew it was going to product massive waves... hence the reason the houses are boarded up. It's the price we pay to live here.
@@tim850csi still pretty dumb to be living that close to the ocean
Right? There is no way I could go to bed at night with that ocean in your face. Not too mention the cost of replacement and repairs.
@@tim850csi - Do you ONLY get those big waves during storms? Or are those waves ALWAYS like that? I'm wondering because it appears there are several homes that haven't been painted in a while, as it would of course be impossible to paint if waves are continuously showering the houses.
@@angelsoto7043 only during the bigger storms during astronomically high tides typically.
Who ever developed that area should be under water in lawsuits.
Diana Blanke (29 minutes ago)
LORD HAVE MERCY!
LOL!
You’re kidding right? Noone forced them to buy it. Chance are they signed lawsuit waivers. They know what storms do
@@Anomize23 , I'm just bored and I say stupid things. Forgive me. I'm just taking care of my 97 year old Mother as my life is put on hold. I have nothing else to do when she's napping, but to sit in the chair by her bed until she wakes up. Please forgive me. I'm sure it is a glorious place to live when there isn't a Nor'Easter slamming the coast. Much love!
Some people like living on the edge! I guess they like gambling with Mother Nature, and our Lord who created the ocean, sea, land, and PEOPLE!🙏🙏🙏
I imagine it is a great place to live, and people do have a right to make choices. However, it looks like people are living real close to the edge. What an adventure!🙏
Вот на хрена ставить дома в таких природных условиях ? Солёная вода за несколько лет съест и крыши, и стены.
...more like in a few days.
It’s just breathtaking. Thanks for sharing.
That entire peninsula could have been a nice park instead of big homes.
@@TuyenPham-jm5eq facts!
Agreed, than the democrats could have done their campaign in piece.
And one day it will be, again.
Pure stupidity.
These homes don't look large too me, but they are on stilts. However, I wouldn't call these mansions. And obviously, in a country of freedom, we get to choose what we spend our money on. And who says they don't have a nice park somewhere. This country is park rick. My tiny town of 30k has more parks than I can remember and it's not affluent, not by a long shot.
Those homes are a menace to the shore environment...too close....
Yes, that's what the ocean is trying to tell them, but they aren't listening to it!
It's crazy, there's no beach
These houses weren’t always this close to the water. At some point, they were hundreds of yards back, but because of erosion the ocean Has eaten away at the beach causing it to get closer and closer to the homes
@@sophiajohnson4546 global warming
Huh??? Menace to the power of the ocean? Mere sticks. Ocean will be here long after those houses are gone. You're living in a spirit of fear.
Wow 😳 extraordinary footage I can’t believe people live that close to the Poseidon waters.
"This is a great place to live". You bet!
Omg!The Ocean claiming the land!,Mother Nature at its best!...Be safe people!Fantastic footage by the way.
..... and they all know this will only get more frequent and more intense.
It's ok. Insurance will cover the damage, and then raise everyone else's premiums
As far as I know you cannot get flood insurance for these homes.
Thank you. ONLY TO PLEASE OTHERS FOOLISHNESS
Yeah. Federal flood insurance.
You prolly won't get insured, if you did it would cost more than the house per year.
That's a fact.
Imagine sitting in your living room just drinking coffee watching the waves crash into your house like it's just a normal day.
Don't forget to add life jacket! Lol
To afraid of deep water. Run for the mountains. That's safer.
Most people who can afford to live in a waterfront home, either have a homeowners policy that will cover this (depends on the area) or they can usually afford to rebuild. Most are well aware (and prepared) and know this is part of “beach” life.
EXACTLY ...... And, for those that have never had the "AWESOME" experiense of waterfront living, .... Well, I feel sorry for you ALL !!! Because there is NOTHING like it ....... Trust me !!!
@@ricks.1318 eh it's okay
@@ricks.1318 I would agree if you was talking about a nice lake but this is giving me the tsunami vibes.
Until the beach is gone.
I’ve heard of a car wash, but never seen a house wash before. I hope their windows are closed
🤣🤣🤣
😝😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣
😆
Haha true
Ginger cox....does it matter if the windows are up and closed, the water is going to come in no matter what.
I don’t recall seeing houses so close to the beach 65 years ago. People knew better.
Same houses, less beach.
The houses didn't move but the beach disappeared. I visited Scituate in 2014 and 15 and I went to North Scituate / Minot Beach and noticed just how much of the beach had disappeared! ☹️
The beaches errode away with time.....
Building techiques have improved massively since then. Lots of lessons have been learned over hundreds of years. I guess, someone didn't want to pay for actual sea protection. Building right on the edge of the ocean should not form any problem at all, if build right. Lots of towns over the whole world you could look into too see for yourself.
@@frankvandendool882 Not even the most advanced building techniques can stop erosion from beaches which are key erosion areas. Nothing beats the ocean, in the end. A truthful engineer will tell someone that, but people with more money than sense will find people to build whatever they want. Then they will expect local government to bail them out, using money from the taxes of the not rich people who live locally - money which should be spent on things to benefit the whole community.
Great drone flying! Were you ever concerned one of the crashing waves might take you out? Seems you were pretty close to a few of them!
I wonder if they zoomed in though
Thank you for taking the time to put an actual date
Why would a person build there? That boggles my mind.
Not even a beach!🤣
Greed and stupidity.
They're rich Democrats! Why else?!
Used to be a beach it’s gone though
Houses have been there for centuries
There just updated
Wife: Honey would you wash the windows this weekend?
Husband: Done.
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂👍
😂😂🤣🤣😁😁😂😀😃
😁😂😅
Good on you for capturing this amazing footage, thank you
Great place to live and very expensive. I always wanted to live in Scituate but way out of my price range. Love watching the waves crash up on the wall and when there is a storm, I drive down sometimes to watch the waves, at a distance!
Thanks for sharing!!
Here in California people build homes on cliffs for the view, without knowing that the ocean is never 'done' and slowly carves the cliffs claiming more and more land, and the homes have to be abandoned. Expensive temporary view!
CA has a variety of cliffs. Hard rock bluffs no problem. Soil bluffs will destabilize if underground water levels get too high, moving a layer from below.
The fact that they're still developing on land that is 75% ocean lmao
Humans are so freakin arrogant. I hope all the houses get washed away since its the only way they learn. Like seriously, how much closer to the water do they need to be?
Idiots that deny global warming its all about the dollar bill. .Idiots!! Well look at you NOW!!
IKR! What the heck?
@@scotty6124
(2 hours ago)
How much Closer to the water they need to be?
I was Wondering the Same Thing!
Then they tell you they own it and you can't access it, I seen it before on Canada's west coast they will also look for bail out money to pay for it
Great footage! Thanks for posting.
"This is a great place to live."
That is if you like being flooded a lot and having a wall around your property that is useless.
She must be an MKUltra " This is a great place to live" yeah right. Her father developed that area. Lol
Did she say a great place to live...? lmao she's nuts!!
she said it twice! like she's trying to convince herself. super-weird
rich people mindset.
She said it twice 😂✌🏽
Probably the local real estate agent is my guess
@@MrMdaeu these houses have to be really nice any time the ocean is not pouring over them
Wow!! Great footage!!! You filmed excellent!!!
excellent drone work. Fantastic views. Thanks for sharing.
I live in Florida and even we don't put our houses THAT CLOSE to water
Give it time Florida's falling into the ocean to look at A1A
Ya Florida does, Florida was built under a swamp
I live on a boat, on the hook 20 yrs.
I remember those sea walls. After one bad winter in the 60’s a wall was left in Huge chunks all over the beach in Hull.
I'm with you, Mary - would LOVE to live there!! Thank you to the channel for the awesome upload.
Can’t find a house here for under 3 mil
That's crazy!
Houses so close to the sea!
Wonder if their foundation is shifting from impact of the water...
And the houses are so damp inside. Mold everywhere.
I can’t imagine the upkeep on a house there. Wood that needs repainting and repairing constantly, flooding, windows washed, gardens destroyed, lawn equipment swept away. I lived in a stone house with the sea on three sides of it but it had stood there four hundred years and was solid. Very little upkeep needed.
They all look pretty good to me.
I can't believe the jealousy , hate and discontent over where someone chooses to live!
YUP ..... They just DON'T get it at all ............
Scituate is a great place to live and visit. Love it.
People need to get right with their Creator! >> This is crazy stuff.
I d like to see the drone who took that footage!
Thank you for the video.
Beautiful footage.
I like this lady's attitude. She explains how everything on bottom of home is destroyed....but she says also a couple times how great of a place it is to live!
shawn lawrence 😂😂😂that’s when you have money and you just blow it in the wind!
Yeah it sounds like she's not worried about the cost of anything and the insurance going way up ... maybe she's not the one who has to worry about that .
When you sell one of these now in my town the state mandates it goes up on pilings. The water just goes under them.
She was being sarcastic I suppose about it being a great place to live
The wall should of been built more curved towards the water
Thats what i was thinking too
Exactly!
Awesome surf. Would love to be there. Mother Nature is a powerful force.
Me too. Looks amazing.
This footage is wicked fantastic
My mother's best friend lived in Scituate for 15 years. If you live here, do not build an attachment to your car or truck, water heater/Boiler got flooded every season if you are under 3 feet off the ground anywhere near the water.
There will be times when the waves come in so fast, you can't move your vehicle in time. Totaled.
Most responses are "oh well, we'll get another car, boiler and water heater, I love it here"
My mother's friend moved 10 miles inland.
And my insurance company wants to cancel my insurance due to a loose railing.
🤣
Yes, I would like it also. Truly amazing watching it. Don't know how much a stick home can handle... but still in the upright position.
Thank's for sharing!
Wow 😍 that's breathtaking how good I feel to see this 🌊
I wonder what its like sleeping here and hearing the waves on the roof. Must sound great☺
Next thing you know, water is in the house-
Power of the ocean is beautiful and awesome.
Wasn’t there even a moment when the home owners thought, ‘that’s right on the water, maybe we shouldn’t buy here’!
Very clear video---nice work.
I live by the see those house's are far too close ,that's not even a proper storm they could have their roofs taken off .
Why can't this crashing be captured and used to generate electricity somehow?
cuz muh oil
It's a nice place to visit and I have. But it floods quite often. That's unfortunate, it's a very nice town.
Oh how peaceful the sound of the waves lull me to sleep!
Would be nice to see the insurance companies drop their insurance. Building this close to the ocean is asking for mother nature to take your house. Makes everyone's insurance rates go up.
All I got to say to those homeowners is, don't quit your day home
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!
I'm amazed by the power of nature. Honestly it is frightening to know.
4D enjoyment: sight, sound, smell and taste of sea water.
Beautiful; I can almost smell that salt air! Looks like the arc of the seawall face is rolling most back out, which is impressive. But the wind is a vixen for sure, lol.
all i can say, is that I'm happy that I don't pay their bills for repairs every year. sea salt
But we do ! Those of us with RIN or homeowners insurance and who may NEVER make a claim are paying for replacement/rebuilding.
@@katiedid1851 Glad you pointed that out. Fema is our tax money if they get washed out totally.
You do pay.
It's magic. The same magic that keeps our houses from getting washed away!
Imagine leaving the window open in the morning and forgetting to close it when you went out that day
LOL ... Why, do YOU "leave your windows OPEN during heavy storms", there, in Weedville, Nebraska ?????????????????????
It seemed like such a great beach house when I bought it last summer!
I'm surprised the Drone still get good pictures and still not Shake while filming I know the winds got to be bad look at those gnarly waves smash into those houses like that it's amazing at the same time terrifying.
Excellent footage! What brand and model number is your drone?
O homem toma o lugar do mar depois tem que devolver a força 💪
When you have money anything is possible.
May I have your attention please !
This is the captain, abandon ship, abandon ship !
Lol
Crazy part is ... how the drone managed to fight the heavy wind
wow,, I was born in Ky.. lived in Louisville when I was younger, I remember how cold it can get there . Thank you for sharing ..
Those homes are too close to the water.
Where do you live, iowa?
HHahHahahHahahahahahahaha!!

@@courtneykirk478
I live near Redhook Brooklyn.
During sandy it became a swamp.
The area use to be a swamp 200 years ago.
I can remember visiting here when i was in high school,
looking out the window of the house at somebody walking on the sea wall.
There was a big beach on the other side of the wall---
This was a summer resort, all the people who owned houses on the sea wall had winter homes in the suburbs closer to Boston--- it must have changed a lot if people live there all winter now.
Gentrification happened. When I grew up Scituate was a poorer cousin to Hingham, Norwell, and Cohasset. Now it's rich just like them I heard ☹️
Beach houses are a thing of the past nobody can afford to just have a house sitting that they don’t use for months
The real star in this video is that Sea wall , it did its job very well and the house is built up on stilts also. Awesome job with the drone operation also
Did they expect something different with *WATER AT THE FRONT AND THE BACK OF THE HOUSES?*
The waves are just having a good time, surly you can appreciate?
Driving those cars and trucks through the surging salt water, did anyone tell them their vehicles have numerous expensive computers nowadays?
It's like owning a boat salt water creates corrosion and eats eats metal, nope not for me.
Why bother
One careful owner, garaged all year round....
@@TUGG75 Salt will still corrode no matter how often. I always like to keep my equipment corrosion free by hosing and using corrosion X
i live in New York.
How does that drone stay steady!! AMAZING footage hope not too much damage!!
“This is a great place to live”..😂if you want to see the ocean 🌊 in your living room!
Great filming
