- Aerial footage released Thursday, January 2, shows the breadth of the wildfires raging across a vast expanse of forest in Victoria, Australia earlier this week.

READ MORE: Tens of thousands of holidaymakers raced to evacuate popular seaside towns on Australia’s east coast Thursday, fleeing ahead of advancing bushfires, as military ships and helicopters began rescuing thousands more trapped by the blazes.
Fueled by searing temperatures and high winds, more than 200 fires are now burning across the southeastern states of New South Wales and Victoria, threatening several towns.
Long lines formed outside supermarkets and gas stations near high-danger areas, and shelves were emptied of staples like bread and milk, as residents and tourists sought supplies to either bunker down or escape.
More than 50,000 people were without power and some towns had no access to drinking water, after catastrophic fires ripped through the region over the past few days, sending the sky blood red and destroying towns.

It was so sad to know that countless innocent Animals were killed, I've been looking at how can I help those innocent animals, but I'm glad that I found out that if I pickup a shaving kit from Charity Shave Co, all the money goes to the Aus fires.
Imagine being a species that can't run, like a Koala or Sloth :(
I used to be a logger and have fought fires in the past. I saw many fires that a man can't outrun.
@Hillary Sanderson get your head out of the sand,koalas tend to climb to the top of a tree in a situation like this,guess what.. the trees are burning!!
Hillary Sanderson Load of rubbish.
Total Bullion that hurts my heart
No thank you
if forces would come together like they do in wars. The fires would be out by now
This is done on purpose lol
comedy gaming no the climate is too dry and it’s hot outside
Dark Tablet that’s what they want you
To think but it ain’t just like the rain forest they burn down areas for cows and shit some farmers burn out crops that were already harvested
Not going to happen because no profit will be made from saving a forest.
No matter who comes together these fires wont be put out anytime soon. Mankind has no power over nature......
There's no way you can see the scale of these fires from a heli. You need to see it from space...
Zigga Moog tHeRmaL
@Eagle Eye ooh
Seeing this makes my heart hurt what a devastation to mother nature hope they get all the help they need military got to get involve as well☹😢☹
Isn't the Navy helping?
@Fireproof Crane what an ugly thing to say. Pity for you.
Uhm... MOTHER NATURE did it. I Love u 🙋God💋
GUYS GUYS STOP FIGHTING IN THE CHAT OF THIS GUY'S COMMENT.
@Hillary Sanderson also Jesus christ you guyrs really like to fight.
I'm in the U.S. I hope our government sends in some help. This is devistating.
@dark light the US is a highly interventionist country, like in the Middle East...
This is a humanitarian issue, any country that can help, should help.
Yes Please! We need our American Brothers help more than ever.
You do know Australia sent firefighters to help in Cali, right boomer?
benedict Arnold gottem
There are some teams from the USA down here, as well as from Canada and New Zealand, we appreciate all the help we're getting from our friends down here in Aus.
It looks like we are not going to live more than 100 years from now.
That’s good we need a reset on humanity anyways
@@deadeyedblack2350 .....I agree....
RP - Jesus will be on time. :) (:
@@deadeyedblack2350 lmaooo
Yeah in 100 years everyone who is currently alive today will be dead
Lord have mercy!! So many innocent lives! Poor animals!!
Thankfully, animals don't " hunker down and wait it out " like my fellow idiot humans do. They will be fine, as always. Fire happens. Its a yearly event in most fire zones, hence it being called a" fire zone "
@@noneyourbiddness2566 oh yeah no problem then, don't worry folks, the animals are equipped to deal with this all the time.
Fuck these aninals. I dont giva a fuck!! Humans die everyday in 3rd world county's. No one gives a fuck about that
Dumb bitch
@@waarismewiet2010 looks like baby needs a new diaper
Prayers to my Aboriginal brothers and the wildlife
what about Europen Australians? no prayers for them eh?
Even in a time like this there will always be racisim.
They should have kept the Aboriginal people in charge of controlled burning like they've been doing for centuries.
I feel very pity for innocent creatures in the forest
Pray for Australia and these species
We need that Weather Controlling Satellite from that movie "Geostorm" made now.
John Brennan, ex CIA, already divulged that they have been doing this. In California the sky is arrested all the time by jets. The cloud pattern or streaks never show up on doppler radar, only the clouds coming from the pacific ocean.
Visor Overwatch you do know that pretty much all governments control the weather right nothing is natural not even the weather ?
They have JORN... This is like Haarp but located in Australia Queensland
Imagine you just see lazarbeam running as fast as he fucking can😂
Why like this 😭😭😭
My heart 💔 pray for Australia
I’m sorry but thoughts and prayers are not enough it does nothing to say that your thoughts and prayers go out to Australia. Donating does make a difference tho
You are in our prayers
This is heartbreaking.. 💔😞
So many animals have been killed including 8000 Koala's,8000!!!! This is a real tragedy!!!
Unfortunately the estimated total of mammals birds and reptiles is half a billion animals lost.
I'm sure Israel folau has an answer for that one
@@Thetepkai did they all die overnight?
I pray for the safety of everyone in Australia... And that the fires stop really soon. I wish there was something we can do to help...
me too
These kind of disasters should be consider world wide disasters, and all countries should come together and help stop the horrendous pain and suffering all the animals, trees, and people are going and go through
ehh I'm about to hit Gold 4 on League of Legends, so maybe I can help in a few days. Just start without me.
At the end of the video there are very strange local fires inside of the forest..It looks like a deliberately fired ?????? Something wrong??
Boris Tsvetkov some people are deliberately starting fires for some reason. They said there’s arson happening ontop of the actual wildfires
Isolated spot fires are started by embers uplifted and driven by strong winds, some recorded even up to 20km away.
So sad, so many victims humans and wildlife. Praying it rains.
Sadly rain won’t do much
My heart goes out to everyone facing these fires, but this aerial footage really doesn't much to show the scale of these fires, do they? Perhaps something from 10,000 meters up could do that, but these shots just show images that could also be from a perfectly normal-sized fire.
Paul Joseph Watson has a night time aerial video on his TH-cam channel and interviews with the locals.
Uhh, you're wrong. The first shot is completely insane, not sure you see just how high those flames are above those already giant trees.
I pray for all animals...may God give them escape route and life
The animals 😩💔
@Hillary Sanderson What about insects? They are important to the ecosystem as well.
@Hillary Sanderson no they aren't fine these fires have killed so many koalas it's beyond belief,not just the bears,kangaroos etc,do some reading and watch the videos.
Fuckem.
Buffy Summers what about the people 🤔😒
Hillary Sanderson : From an Australian, believe me, there are thousands of animals dying. These fires are so big the animals have nowhere to go. Heat and lack of water also kill them. Take note of how big and how fast these fires are moving.
Got told to evacuate today in the Gippsland region. Not ready for this. Thank you lord today in Victoria literally at this time there is some rain to ease the pain. God bless our firefighters and those who are putting there lives on the line to help this beautiful country and everyone and everything it. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
❤️❤️;,🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
that is a massive fire, it's a shame what a waste of natural beauty
Dude Australia has lost 500 million animal I fell sad for all the animal
Syed iqbal Hussain *SPEECH 100*
So so sad... All those poor animals that lost there homes😔😔😔
It all breaks my heart.. Human being considered as one of the most intelligent creature have turned the whole world to chaos... 😔Please do love the mother earth and every being that lives in it..🌍🙏
We should be sending resources there to combat that. I just find it insane we are all humans, but if you live on a different patch of land everyone sits back and watches it burn.
There are resources from all over the world helping. You're online, 2 minutes of googling would have made you not look so dumb.
Odd when Australia keeps talking about how much they need to equipment that we have to fight them in California and you have sources backing your claim that we are all helping right?
@Madwrestler 145 said what?
@@goodcitizen2895 You made the claim that noone is helping, you provide the sources on that dipshit.
With all the technology and equipment available these days there is no reason it hasn't been stopped and if they had the support of other countries it would be
The video stopped when the fires started looking suspicious.
Yeah why was it in blotches like that how did it spread?
Exactly what I was thinking.
Some people are trying to say it's just lightning strikes.
That is a lot of lightning strikes.
@@randythompson1957 Embers from the initial fires that spread due to the high winds.
As an Aussie you're being very silly, Pyrocumoulous clouds could result in some of them, Amber attacks which start spot fires 6kms ahead of the main front and flashovers the near spontaneous ignition of fuel (pretty much when something gets heated to the point it produces flammable gases aka pyrolosis, which is the first stage of combustion)
You're subtracting from the real issue here which is climate change by spreading this ignorance.
That’s going to be a huge carbon offset bill.
I’m liking that attitude and I’m in NSW.
Hahaha dose not work like that. Paris Accord: Bushfires not included, Back burning is though, wonder why this fire is so big?
HOW DARE YOU!
Heartbreaking
In the Southern Hemisphere is Summer in Australia
*Oh My Good! :(*
Satellite images show the true scale of this, this video doesn’t do it justice.
It didn't show anywhere near enough to quantify the shitstorm the fires have become. Horrible video.
@Blood Beryl And your mind!
I’m not ready to leave my home 😢
Phoenix I don’t know why but your comment made me cry 😢
Just cried reading your comment
I hope you guys are safe
Please go to safety 😕💕
Stay safe.💜
0:47 How does the fire separate into to none touching sections like that?
Wind blows hot ash which ignites in isolated areas
I wish it rains heavy 😞😞😭😭 and heals the land and wildlife
Oh yea tons of muds und washed out homes.......
Lets wish for heavy rain in Australia 😭
😭
There has been many heavy rainfalls all across Australia, but for some reason the bushfires never stop. I moved to far Northwest Queensland to avoid fires and other reasons.
What's the red stuff the plane sprayed?
Oh Allah give heavy rain here please
Or Allah's people could show up like the USA did.
so sad moment for Australia
😟😟😟
Why aren’t they (the Australian government) requesting more help? I know wild land firefighters in California who want to go but they’re only requesting little help. We want to help them more than we are 😩 god bless everyone affected by this
when nature on this scale is in a destructive state, no thing alive is unaffected.
Ranked Goon / GsQ DoomBlade I know, I hope everyone gets the help they need whether it’s physical things or mental health help. I can’t even imagine how traumatic this is
We have been asking for help and we have been getting it. www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2020-01-02/la-me-australia-fires-us-helps-firefighters
16 firefighters are from CA but honestly they have just finished a horror fire season themselves. According to the article linked their is document for firefighters interested in being dispatch but I'm in Aus so couldn't tell you who or where that document is being disrupted.
The Aus media has close to 50 suspects for starting potential fires I think this is all lit fires and then sending the military to evacuate the last few people who refused to leave and save their homes government has always had an agenda to build train lines in the exact same locations these fires are coincidently lit though that's my theory it's a damn shame if it is
Government doesn't want to spend money on it. All the rural fire fighters are volunteering.
what a lovely start to the new year
Any update
// Cloud seeding is a type of weather modification that aims to change the amount or type of precipitation that falls from clouds by dispersing substances into the air that serve as cloud condensation or ice nuclei, which alter the microphysical processes within the cloud. The usual intent is to increase precipitation (rain or snow), but hail and fog suppression are also widely practised in airports where harsh weather conditions are experienced. //

God bless Australia....from India
Don’t worry guys I’m in Australia and it just rained two days ago 🥰
are you okay?ヾ(๑╹◡╹)ﾉ"
Kangaroo Island is in big trouble tomorrow.
@@yahawahreuben1159 why..?
@@surelynotdeath the temperature and winds stoking what's already on fire
Pray for them!
Did I just witness by the END of the video Almost perfect Circles Of Fire ?
Embers fly ahead of the fire and into trees which catch on fire
Dude I know, I’m just adding on to the conspiracy !
How did this happen :(
God bless you Australia
Oh no ...
God Bless bless🙏
Sending prayers to Australia from New York! Hope all goes well
😔😔😭😭
Who could we speak to about using some exerp from this video in one of our videos?
0:20 did the plane just miss that fire?
Looks like something out of that 2012 movie like an apocalyptic scenario
Thats not a bush fire its a fire storm!
I saw a map of Australia with all the fire locations and OMG 😱,it looks like the whole island will burn.praying for the folks down there.🙏
this is horrible, so sad 🥺
That "island of fire" you can see in 0,47 sec. How come? Is it sparks taken by the Wind?? You see more of them. Hope you Australian pulls through! From Norway
BFV Firestorm looks lit
At 0:20 I think that the plane missed the fire
How did the fire even happen and get that big!? 😔
Do anybody know why the water they dropped through helicopter is red in colour?
Hi VOA :) thanks!!! I Love u 🙋God💋
Sad :(
😭😭😭😭😭😭
When it will stop
This is a catastrophe of world-wide significance! I hope other nations provide resources to extinguish the flames quickly!!
Sou brasileira me importo muito com o mundo😭😭
Oh my God, I’m in Perth. (Directly in the city)
Human 101 the media is not overdramatising it, but we don’t have any smoke/fires in Perth
sou brasileiro mais me importo com o mundo😰💔💔

*Mẹ thiên nhiên giận con người đó 😥😥*
Oh god please help for those animals and no more burning alive please 😭😭😭😭
Sorry to tell you this but an estimated half a billion animals have died from the fires so far.
How did that lone ring of fire start at 0:46
Burning Embers moving on the wind
Great pickup, looks suspicious.
Ridiculous! So sad
Oh my god all those slow moving animals 😭🙏
Oh my god
Poor mother earth..
THE MOST POWERFUL ERUPTION OF ALL TIME
Prayers for Ree_Kid
You would think near by countries would send fire fighting planes etc to help out
How did this fire start ?
Dry lightening strikes.

This didn't show the scale. Regardless, don't we know how to cloud seed now?
The only clouds we are seeing are the clouds of smoke
نسئل الله العافية ويحفظ المسلمين ولمن من رضا لهم وحيواناته ونباتته ولمن رضا امخلوقاته اللهم أمين يارب العالمين
* Side by side which is spreading fire *
* Drop more water than before *
* Stares like a boundaries *
* Fire does not spread further due to wetness *
* If there is a river trend *
* Can be done on fire side *
* Then definitely do it *
* Due to fire, break the sequence and divide it into pieces *
* The fire will stop spreading quickly *
* It is very important to break the increased order *
* Long iron and stone pillars *
* To be dropped on a moving fire from above, on tall trees *
* Sand or water wet in those poles *
* Filled bags to be hung in sequence *
* So that it spreads out as soon as it falls down *
* Sending airplanes and helicopters to other subsidiary countries to extinguish the fire as quickly as possible *
* Should be helped *
* The side fire is spreading *
* The trees and grasses of the forest ahead of the big machine *
* Clear it like a boundaries * become a big gap *
* Fire could not flourish further *
Australia water is ending very fast
