At first I wasn’t too critical of those guys. They had a good view upstream and a nearby slope to climb. But later two guys kept just ahead of the wave front heading into narrower sections of the ravine. That was stupid.
"Hey look, a flash flood is coming. Let's stand in front of it!" That canyon is there and that deep for a reason and it isn't because a little creek ran through it.
@@ezzyth8824 At 2:04, you can see erosion from flash floods before where it has worn away at the lower part of the rocks on the left. That's at least a good 8, 10 or 12 feet deep and it may even be deeper than that since our top-down view doesn't really do it justice and the man is standing so far away to compare for scale against the sides. If you look up places like Antelope Canyon in the USA, you'll see slot canyons filling up with dozens of feet deep of water and still overflowing their banks. This area has no doubt seen massive flash floods before during large rain events and has certainly worn down this area over hundreds of years. The water up front that we're seeing here is just the beginning. The water further away is so much deeper and moving very quickly with all sorts of deadly debris.
It always looks so harmless...till someone is drowning. Starts out slowly then builds. One guy is on the wrong side and they ran past their exit point. I think the fun stopped right after the video did.
Wow, that's a flash flood. Now let's not run away from it and go onto its way and take pictures and videos unless it carries me away with it and kills me.
This is literally what happens every time they have heavy rain there. I actually stayed in a Bedouin settlement in the Israeli desert and they were talking about how dangerous flash floods are and it actually did storm when we were there.
@@bobsaget9675 I've seen teenagers do really stupid stuff, but by the time one gets to be an adult we learn there are lots of things out there that will kill us, and lots of stupid ways to die. Getting old in the country isn't an accident.
@@Shamkk dude fire,water and air are not the things to play around with. These people are definitely not locals so it means they don't know the path properly. What if something dangerous happened? One swipe of gushing water and they would all be dead. This isn't adventurous at all. My mother is a very fun loving and adventurous person but one thing she never does and asked me to never do is underestimate fire, water and air or ever play around with them.
nobody respects mother nature anymore because we spend so much time seperated from her. People seem to think everything is there to entertain them without thinking of their own fragile human mortality
@@Shamkk no thats not true, you can't predict the damn flood, we have usual flash floods more often here believe me every inch the flood travels the more its speed increases manifold.
Garry Carter Yup.. the potential danger is great. Just because they might start off slow does not always mean they will remain slow. Conditions can change quickly.
That guy snapping away is going to have a hell of a time going through all of those photos. Conservatively, I believe he shot off a minimum of 15 million photos.
@@kelaarin That's why you don't take a mediocre one. You shouldn't have to take 100, 50, or even 10 photos to get it right. 2 or 3 at the absolute max, unless you are focus stacking or shooting bracket but clearly that's not the case here. Anything else and I'd argue you are just "spraying and praying" hoping that you will get a lucky shot. If you simply take your camera off of automatic (not saying you don't, just speaking in general), understand all of the different focus settings and use your histogram every time, you shouldn't have to ever spray and pray, unless you are shooting sports.
@@kelaarin I disagree. This is no different then standing in front of the rising tide and snapping hundreds of photos of a naturally and regularly occurring and very repetitive event, like a flash flood running through a canyon. It's no different than any landscape with a river or waterfall. Rather than snap off a bunch of blind photos, he should be more proactive to improve his composition. Now if this flood was about to hit a structure, you'd flip it into rapid fire and capture the point of impact in multiple images. But c'mon man this is no different then pointing your camera at waves rolling in and unless you don't know what to shoot, you will get home and see hundreds of nearly identical images. That time is a waste of money and resources. But who am I? I only live off of photography and video, created a photography business from nothing, and shoot every single day. I've shot commercials and have had content picked up by Discovery Network. Look I get it, if you run a shutter count of my D7500, it has over 300,000 clicks since September of 2018, I also shoot with a D780 that has racked up more than 50,000 clicks. Most of those are not spray and pray. But if I go to the track I'll shoot rapid and if I shoot for 4 hours I'll have at least 2000 pics. Anyway, I don't care how you do it. Ultimately your method of shooting is a great way for beginners who dont understand composition. You just shoot a bunch of photos, find what you like out of their photos, and then learn from that and next time slow down, take your time and focus on taking the type of pictures you thought were good from your previous experiences. I have given you great advice that I had to pay to hear years ago.
@@JustinBradleyPhotographer Ahh, yes, the old "here's my resume, so I'm an expert" routine. Guess what? So am I. 20 years in the photo and video industry. I offered my opinion, you rejected it. So you do you.
That reminds me of the Colorado River running through Yuma Arizona trickling along even slower than that, it brings to mind the Hoover dam holding back all the water from reaching us destination well it'll crumble too someday like everything else
Knowing flash floods here in the SW, I'd not be playing with that!! Its how fast that water can come after the deceiving inital slow wash. The slow wash may be your only warning and not last as long as this one did.
Why is it that there is always people in the flash flood area to see the flood, and the recorder is high up and away where you can’t see what he recorded ! ! ! WTF........
Small canal through it which is good for covering levels after practically noticed can be decided one narrow drange systems to fill up waters and more than level for separate of elements are only water can enter it's high to hiest level is good for sotrage of waters level is good
someone DID get swept away for sure, maybe two people. 1:42-1:47 top of screen on far bank u can see a black spot trying to get to shore! How painful to watch!
In Israel they do it slow and with clean water. In Arabia they do it with pebbles. In America they do it a little faster with lots of timber. In Austria and Switzerland they do it fast with lots of "concrete". In Hawaii....... ...... they do it with molten rock..... brrrr
Those 2 guys in the right- came all the way down into the dry riverbed when a flood is coming, and just too bored with life to turn around and look at it.
We were fine everybody and it was fun! I’ve been playing in this canyon since I was a kid so I know it well. I wouldn’t advise doing this if you don’t know the area. Thanks for the concern though!

You remember that scene from LOTR where the Nazguls were swallowed by the river? Yeah, that one.
😂😂😂😂😂👌👌👌👌👌
Was that where your mom washed in on the waves?
We were being safe my friend! We know these canyons very well.
On look at the topography on either side of that arroyo should tell you all you need to know about the nature of past flooding in it.
It always looks so harmless...till someone is drowning. Starts out slowly then builds. One guy is on the wrong side and they ran past their exit point. I think the fun stopped right after the video did.
yup... around 100ft back upstream the water looked to intense to walk through, his window to cross closed fast.
I was just sure we were going see the theory of natural selection played out before our very eyes.
at least he changed sides with a way out...

Really hoping the one guy who kept running in front and getting in the way of others’ pictures got stuck on the far side.
It is the world's tears rising over the unceasing death and inhumanity that has pervaded this unhappy corner of the world for centuries.
Wow,never seen the water before.
and yet here we are watching videos of water.
Did everyone see the smart ones head for higher ground? The rain that caused this may have been a hundred miles away.
Why is it that there is always people in the flash flood area to see the flood, and the recorder is high up and away where you can’t see what he recorded ! ! !
WTF........
How many photos of this do we need!!!??????
Very Very Very Very intense !!! Stunningly silly mice all scattering.in circles. So many nightmares from this video !! UNBELIEVABLE !!

That looks like fun. Praise the Lord.

Very interesting to watch!👍🙂
It is slow moving but neat looking
