Huge Flash Flood, Maui

- After a huge rain storm in Maui, Hawaii, the river above a place called The Venus Pools flash flooded where people normally swim. On regular days it is sunny with bright blue waters but on the day we filmed the flood, thankfully no one was in the water as the only way up was the way the water was coming down. Please subscribe as I will post more footage.
Wow this is cool us locals don’t ever see this perspective because we don’t ever stick around for flash floods lmao
cuz yall know better....these haoles dont
Good point though...
I'm a local. I love watching these.
Speak for yourself.
An easy way to tell if it can get higher is by the rocks, if they don’t have moss or foliage on top of them, it can get higher and you need to get to a higher elevation
good advice....dont ever plan on being near one lol but if i am, that just saved my life.
Thats bad advice. Moss grows fast
@@timexyemerald6290 that’s exactly why, if the area has nothing growing on it, it’s stripped the moss layer away
Good advice. That's why it's impossible to come across flash floods in the desert. No moss means the water can't reach there.
I live in Maui and know this spot Very well !! Be grateful to be alive !! A lot of people have been swept away to their death from flash flooding!!
“It’s time to move” - BEAUTIFUL WORDS OF WISDOM
Starts with “Are we going to be safe here”
Famous last words
Lol
And ends with, "Time to move."
She said are we going to be safe here hell no your not going to be safe
The people asking that kind of question already no the answer lol. Flash floods by their nature will flood over banks those people are not safe and are lucky it didnt rush higher.
If you have to ask that question, the answer is always going to be no.
I got caught in one in BC. I was smoking a few joints and then it started raining hard. I was by a calm waterfall. After 20 min I was chillin by the water although I wasn't looking at it I had my back turned to it. I heard a rush... like alot of water rushing. I looked behind me and the steady calm water fall had turned into a roaring rush of white water that was nearing me by the second. I quickly grabbed onto some Virginia creeper vines and climbed out of there. High was over.
The only way to have an adventure.
@@BlakeBlackstone the best adventures if you ask me
Cause you had some bammer, that weed sucked if after two joints you still weren’t high.
@@BlakeBlackstone onk opk
Kkkkkkmmlkk
Kmopii
It's so cool! Enjoy it until it swept you away. You never know the power of water. Better watch from the higher place people, hope that you all are safe.
I’m born and raised on Maui and I hear all the time about tourists dying from flash floods. Now I see how they die because I was always confused as to how they die. Usually when you hear flash flood you’d stay away from the area but I guess not. SMH they’ll never learn until it’s too late.
its when its a nice day at the coast and raining in the hills that really gets people
how are they supposed to know what's about to happen when they're tourists and clearly not informed?
@@odlfmariner470 um idk if you know this but there’s warning signs everywhere here. Even on the beaches. And bad stuff still happens, so idk if they look at those warnings or not but they are there for a reason.
@@imchris5000 yeah that’s true. Sometimes my friends ask if we want to go to the beach and I always say to look to the mountains first. If it’s raining up there, then that’s a no cause flash floods ain’t no joke
A similar thing happened in the Philippines. 3 unfortunately died.
Love coming back to watch this video one of my favorite flash floods other than that one in Lahaina where within a few seconds this massive vally riverbed fills up to the bridge.
Seems like all the worst flooding happens right when your getting to the ocean, you got the whole Mountain to catch rain
I love when Mom says “it’s time to move yeah it’s time to move”. 👍🏻
Yep mother knows best, the dad would have been all macho and waited for the water to be at his damn head before he would move lol.
You love very odd things, don't you?
sweeeeet home Alabama
Same here I had the same thought..such a good mom
@@BigJordan92708 lol your right!
last time I went to maui I was at the 7 scared pools on a pretty clear day when a low flying helicopter comes zooming down the valley with a loud speaker telling everyone to get out of the canyon a few minutes later the water rose 20 feet
"Are we safe here?"
"No." (shoves person into riverbed)
what a beautiful place! I love those volcanic rocks! Many thanks
This place is so beautiful ❤️
it is actually really cool though
Wow... !!! My best friend, It's always great. We liked and enjoyed to the end. Thanks

This footage was found 50 miles offshore 3 years later. Recovered after a mysterious flooding event
Can we talk about Aaron...

Esto es naturaleza pura, precioso,

Someone just died there 2 weeks ago. 4 people were swept in and only 3 made it out.
another person just drowned at hamoa beach, a few miles from this river. that's about 3 or 4 people this winter that have died on the east side.
@lilCoffy Ha! Tuna!! Deserved it
A similar incident happened in the Philippines a few months ago. 3 died unfortunately
Maravilhoso
Safe to say, that know it all guy sure does like "debris".
Nice!
at the beginning, "is it going to be safe here" if you have to ask. maybe ask up the bank a little farther?
but, like, like, like............................need commentators in this film AVERAGE AGE................13???
I just saw a clip of 2 people getting swept away in this exact spot luckily they survived
nice video
Call me weird but I find this satisfying
Can we see it from the bridge too?
A tourist just died there last week so sad!!!
Huge respect to the cameraman who soaked his camera while filming this 😎😎😎😎😎
"Are we going to be safe here?"
"Should be..."
So cool
Big Thompson canyon, Colorado. Aug 1 1976. 100 dead. Water rose 30' in an instant.
You're exaggerating just a little, aren't you Rick?
@@lovebajaI see that, my bad. The canyon walls are 100 feet. In 1976, I was home on leave from the Navy. Aug. 1 is Centennial day here in the Centennial state. Campers all over the Rockies. Big Thompson flash flood happened late in the day. A 30' wall of water came rushing through the canyon. 100 people were killed. It's a beautiful drive to Estes Park from I-25, but I'll never forget that day. Look it up if you don't believe me. And now we're dealing with mudslides in Glenwood Canyon. Closed I-70 both directions this week due to flash flood alerts.
@@gaittr "condescending jerk?" "narcissistic?" You need help.
@@gaittr get help
@@gaittr he didnt sound like a condescending jerk at all
Big Island moa bettah 🤙🏽😁
Hi, I’m here for 17:15 flash flood.
Sure, step this way it’s due any minute now.
From a rocky site 👏 Suddenly i m in the waterfall .. site ..
What is the point of getting as close as possible until the last possible second when you can literally stand 10ft to your right, completely safe, and have the same exact view of the flood lol
Look at these sharpen stones and flash flood combination, it's synergy of monsters
Rivers being formed my gentlemen
Flood starts at 0:25
Thanks for saving a 25seconds of my life👏🏻
Nice 🙂
I'm so glad you risked your necks to get that shot of the power of nature cos I wouldn't have been anywhere near the edge on wet rock like that.
سبحان الله وبحمده سبحان الله العظيم

Onde é esse luga
Es en las islas Hawaiian
Why so much water in a second? where does all that water come from?
It was raining hard higher up on the mountain in Hawaii so it all came down at once
@@landonsea5721 Wow. So dangerous. You made a great filming, congratulations.
uhhhhh..... rain
Help me Rhonda! Help . . .
These people must be a hoot at a dinner party. Did that guy actually say "what a statement"?! Also, one mo time party people, this is not a flash flood. This is the natural path the water takes in order to prevent flooding as much as possible. Notice all the not-flooded lush greenery surrounding the water filled areas. Not a flood.
That is a flash flood tho.
A flash flood is defined as - a sudden local flood, typically due to heavy rain. This is a flash flood.
@@aaronwebb7090 I'm only saying that since the water is running where it's supposed to run... in the river bed to the pool, and the surrounding non-river bed land is not being flooded then its not a flood. Its just a fast running river do to excessive rainfall. If the river doesn't overrun its banks, as its not doing here, then its not a flood. Hey, I'm no expert but my eyes work well and all I see is a rushing river not flowing over into surrounding land.
Bom dia! Pra mim é uma honra viu prestigiar seu trabalho, vamos sempre juntos somar e fortalecer nossos objetivos, Conto com você, eu já estou por aqui ,

Next lesson in afterlife : the erosive power of water :D
(PS : I would totally have done the same if it was there)
That water was clear before 😭
dammit erin
⛈⛈⛈⛈
It’s always better to turn the sound down or off when Americans go on and on.
* Canadian and we where not originally going to post this on CZcams. When I was I thought of muting the sound but though it would be better for you to hear the roar of the water
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
I want to see it from the bridge hahaha the last place to want to be is on a bridge
It was very high above river
@@landonsea5721 didn't that bridge get f***** up recently?
I was made there
ALLAH TEK BÜYÜKTÜR.!!!
Fricken haoles

I love that guy!!!! "this could be one of those last videos where they say 'yeah, they were too close to the edge, all of em.'" At least these people are aware of the danger and accepting the risk! Most people washed away by flash floods are just morons.
wenn der Typ nur einfach seine Klappe gehalten hätte...
