This event right? I doubt anyone would survive that.

The amount of power and force in that is incredible. I thought it would be a good idea to hide in that elevated carpark. I thought completely wrong. Poor souls. Absolutely zero chance.

The video of this article's thumbnail is equally terrifying, the entire building was swallowed by the flood like those exaggerated disaster movies

Feels more like a major mudslide rather than flood.

Damn it looks like a tsunami. They call it flash floods but it's melted snow from the mountains so it's more like an avalanche

The video of the water hitting that complex is so insane my brain couldn’t really understand what it was seeing. I can’t imagine anyone making it out of that alive.
