- Caught in an Arizona flash flood. The road washed out, so we decided to get drone video. Meanwhile water started coming over the road behind us, trapping us in. We had to make a run for it.
Location: Somewhere near Hackberry, Arizona. Route 66, Kingman.

Great video, really shows what happens and how quick it does. Got to love Arizona.
I enjoyed the video. Living in Arizona we have to understand and respect flash floods.This one was actually on the mild side. Thank you for sharing this video.
Thats true. I saw a video on TH-cam of a violent flash flood. Strong enough to wash a car away easy.
vivant en arizona comment je voudrait un jour pouvoir dire ca moi qui suit en france vive l'arizona alors
Now I understand how people get caught in flash floods. So sunny and nice out. Last thing I would of ever thought was coming. Great vid
amazing to think how far the water has actually traveled before reaching you guys ,, must have been raging closer to the mountains
Don't ever live near a flood plain in the desert because you never know when a flood of water will just come your way.
That is something else. thanks for the video.
A real treat. Hope you have offered this footage to Arizona hydrologist.
I'm in Phoenix I explore lot with my jeep all these dry washes look like hasn't been water in them for 100 years but every year or two they turn into torrents of water. Back in 2014 we had 6 inches in one hour rivers which hadn't got more then a few feet deep in 20 years turned into 20 feet deep 100 feet across rivers with 15 foot 20 ton boulders rolling in them. It's really strange because it could be 110 all day dry as a bone and at 6pm the streets are flooded
Good stuff ! Thank you for sharing .
Interesting video. Good to see it from above. As a Brit, I find it amazing that there are no buildings to be seen anywhere. I wish I could look out over land devoid of human interference. Here, everywhere belongs to someone and consequently has rules attached i.e. No trespassing, no dogs, no walking, no picnics, no ball games, keep to the path, no fishing etc etc.
Kathryn Stone, I like your comment. I drive for a living, so I have opportunity often to see endless miles of land virtually void of human interference. It's when I feel closest to God.
Kathryn Stone Kathryn Stone, great comment.
Unfortunately, like many Americans, I haven't traveled abroad enough. Your perspective is fascinating & valuable. I'm also Native American, and the idea that people could "own" the land (Mother Earth) never made sense to me. It is an anathema to me.
Before the two-leggeds arrived, who owned the land then? How can someone own something that doesn't belong to them?
I am blessed to be in a country where I can gaze upon expansive wilderness, all the way to the horizon.
The desert landscape looks terrible I don't like wide exposed places. That's why people should buy my :Impact" a James Grider novel on Amazon and linked in my videos so I can afford to move into a forested area.
Lots of Brits seem to live in the Kingman (Mohave County) area of Arizona, must be something that many of you long for.
бла бла бла, много сказал и ничего путного ))
Thanks for the video. With drones we can see details of places such as this flooded road, where no ordinary camera can go. Ignore the critics who say you should have filmed the source. The source could be miles away, or the storm could be over by now.
The source is likely outside of the drone control range.
I've heard about this but never seen it until now. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! That's some great footage!
Flash floods are interesting and all, but... I think I was most impressed with how steady the drone was. It was like it was a fixed camera, for example when you left it hovering when moving the car out of the way.
Funny, I was amazed at how jerky the operation was. I guess being a commercially licensed drone pilot gives you a different view of things.
Well, we might not talk about the same things... I suppose the operation (actually moving it around) was a bit jerky, and I'm guessing that can depend on both drone quality/advancement, settings and operator skills.
But look at, for example, 1:25 to 1:43 where it isn't really "operated", just left hovering while they move the car.
Seems rock steady to me. Doesn't move out of the spot, the camera could just as well have been stuck to a pole or something.
But sure, I've barely flown a drone at all, at least not without crashing... :P
(cheap beginner's test object w/o "stability intelligence" so it was expected...)
Wondering how far & how fast that water has traveled in such flat open country? Glad your drone’s batteries were well charged!
Great footage. Great escape!
Great footage of a flood by your drone nice going and keep it up
I really enjoyed this video I grew up in Arizona where flash floods were very prevalent
All those thirsty desert plants must be sucking up water as fast as they can until they are ready to burst.

lovely lovely well-done superbb video
I grew up in mesa but spent alot of time in aj, East mesa and queen creek and sycamore creek all of which have very similar flash floods. One of many reasons why we have the "stupid motorist" law. Nice footage thanx for the "flash backs" lol
I'm from the midwest, born and raised, so I know NOTHING about Arizona. My question is, how is there flash flooding here, where everything is so dry, also because it seems like its such a small area that it's coming from! Just crazy! Hope there were no injuries
Great video!!! Videos like this is good to see being from a another state that you dont get flash floods like this. Videos like this can help travels not from the area understand some of the local dangers that you wouldn'texpect.
Great footage, thanks! Always so profound to see water flowing into a desert. What an awesome planet we have been blessed with!
Andy Cap, indeed, brother.
Awesome video!
Amazing video
Wonderful video
Strange how those small subsidiary floods unexpectedly appeared outside the main streambed.
hebneh, yes. And scary!
lovely footage..
Would have liked to have gone higher to get a more comprehensive view of the flooding, and to have followed both the origin and destination of the flow.
The drone used has very limited range.
Seems like the whole point of using a drone.
Very good Video!
It’s the same herein Australia. Flash floods can be deadly!
Seeing as there appears to be no rain, this water must come from many miles away.
Correct. Same with lightening. You can get hit when the storm is ten miles distant.
Nice video! Thenks.
Очень красивая местность. Прекрасное видео.
You really did put your drone for a good use, thks.
this is what my road does every time it rains in tucson... lol
Most Enjoyable I bet a lot of green stuff will shoot up in that area now
The flood of 1983, now that was something.
Love the desert
Very fascinating 👌
Gee! I can't imagine a stream flowing wherever it wants to in a flood plain. It clearly happens frequently by the grader-made windrows of sediment along both sides or the road and the puddles from a previous "flood".
I wish I could see where the water was coming from ?
Nice video
I think you did a great job. Great view from above. And don't pay any mind to the negative comments. They are just jealous of you. Just please be safe!!!!
GOLD get your metal detectors and go out and hunt around !
Ronnie Boucher Yes I was thinking the same thing...
I was thinking the same exact thing where are the gold pans and the detectors
I have travelled that road many times!
Which road is it exactly? We grew up outside of Hackberry. My sis and I went to school there till they shut it down. I want to say this was the road the school bus took 🤷🏼♀️
I'm interested to know how you trained your dog to fly a drone.
The shakiness is caused by a bad propeller or they need balancing. Is it a Phantom series drone, judging by the camera adjustment?
He's got a Phantom 3, and it's been crashed. He obviously didn't replace the rotors.
cool posting thanx
You can see the difference in the plants that gets more water
Amazing
Watching cars drive through the water made me a bit nervous. Solid footage.
Why? 2 inches of water is going to sweep the car into outer space?
@@TempoDrift1480 It was more like 4 inches but the SPEED AND VOLUME make the difference, genius.

Its beautiful there . Awesome video .
Shows the power of water! No matter how we try to make it go where we want its unpredictable. Goes the quickest route.
Easiest route , the one of least resistance . Gave you a thumbs up though for good thinking , and the sensibility of your post :) ... sh*t I sound condescending now , unintentional I promise :)
i live in arizona, and although we dont see a lot of rain, flash floods are a real issue. The dirt is hard and does not absorb much water, where like a rain forest can take rain every day.
NDXDX
We get Flashier Floods here in Texas! 9 out of 10 times when the flood is done there's no road or anything else left. But I gave it a thumbs up.

Very nice
Amezing shoot...
I was planning a bike ride through there and heard about the problem of the flash flooding and how I'd have to find someone with a truck to get me through.
Good video, thank you for sharing
Awesome footage great pilot
I've seen smoother flight from five year old kids.
That's a joke, right?
Wait, they have water in Arizona? Was just there and didn’t see a drop other than the campsites.
Nice video but didn't you know the ephemeral steam would spill onto the highway/ you could of drowned in the desert. Please be careful.
What kind of drone do you have
Great footage and piloting of your drone.
Not really actually. When doing video work you need to be a lot smoother in your flight.
Surely you jest, AV.
По ясному небу и не подумаешь, что где-то прошёл дождь. Этот потоп ,наверное, из-за дождя?
Rain could be hundreds of km away the ground is to dry to absorb it properly so it just keeps flowing
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE WHERE IT STARTED, AND WHAT HELD THE WATER BACK UNTIL IT PUSHED OVER THE BLOCKAGE TO MAKE IT A FLASH FLOOD.
What drone were you using, noticed a bunch of jello in the video.....
very good
Water come from where please explained..
I feel so sorry for the wildlife 😢😢😢
Nice 5d visual video. Welcome to graphic design videos where creation is give a fake name and relate to some real incident.
how this video taken???
From 8:36 i can see the shadow of drone 😁😁
Qué hermoso lugar.
Really nice video, but miss the sound of the water...
Super super good welcome
Cooooooooooool
I did not know duallys like this dodge ram cross
Leak in a watery system somewhere?
What type of drone are you piloting as you gave no information.
Looks like a DJI Phantom 3, with rotors that have been damaged in a crash and were never replaced.
Hmmm ... surprised there wasn't more jello in that case , I didn't pay any attention to the props to be honest, just scouting around the screen with a magnifying glass lol
Nice
The Arizona Desert Soo to be Arizona Sea.😀😀😀😀 Well, Not So Helpful... Where Does the Water Come From?
Where did this start, were there big rains further up as this ground is so dry?
Most of the lowlands, the ground is mainly hardpan.
It's almost impossible to dig through, and very little loose material on the top, if any.
The water runs off it as if it were a sold rock.
The rain is likely from one of the nearby mountains.
It can run across that hard ground for miles.
@@macgyveratlarge2133 thank you for explaining this for me. I've been to USA & parts were so dry, but beautiful!
I was crossing a DRY river bed in Aravaipa Canyon going to Bonita to get mail in early 1980's. Could hear it! saw trickles. In less then 1 min. my truck was engulfed with flood water. That fast. Got on the top of the roof of the truck . Jumped as hard and as much as I could to reach dry ground. Ended up about 100 or so feet down river and managed BY THE GRACE OF GOD ALMIGHTY and my LORD JESUS CHRIST to make it to the shore. I looked in amazement as my truck was stuck in one place, wedged against a HUGE boulder flipping around and around. Would not trade that awesome experience for all the tea in China.
Is grumpy cat ok he lives in arizona
He was piloting the drone.
Amazing experience
it looks like someone left the water on
Bizarre.
Personally,i would have tracked it as far back as I could to the source
Gostaria de saber quanto tempo dura essa lama
oo nice
Must be in the north. I don't see any cactus.
Pode ser a transposição do rio são Franscisco que estourou
From were it starts

nice
Where is it. Can put google location
Looks like coffee lol
