@Glock laat Je moeder je missen"The Dutch first went to Ghana, one of its earliest colonies in the 16th century and exploited underground mines, mainly gold, there. Thousands of Africans were abducted and sold as slaves to America and Europe from Ghana by the Dutch; they were taken through the Elmina Castle built in Ghana in 1642. The colonial Dutch arrived in the coast of Namibia in 1793 and seized the port of Walvis Bay, the most popular port of the country, and slaughtered the inhabitants there. The port of Walvis Bay, which was seized by the Dutch, was then used as a slave port.

Hello german speaker here. There was actually a memeber of the water level and emergency control, who did a very angry interview in our news. He said that there is a servere lack of monitoring of water levels in smaller rivers because the government has not yet invested in them or invested in people that stand and guard in cases of servers weather warnings. Also a lot of power supplies falied because everything is electronical and no longer manual in case of a power outage like we have seen due to the flash floods. The infrastructure to help once disaster struck is very good in germany but there were servere faults in monitoring, prevention, taking the situation seriously and acting to alarm people during the night. Also a lot of people died in their cellar or in the garage because they wanted to save their cars or manage the water levels in their home and drowned because the water levels rose within minutes. If we have learned one thing - don't go after your valuables. Grab your loved ones and get out.
" no longer manual " ... Everything has its place. Few know and appreciate the importance of context. I recently discovered something about vacuum tubes that will beat left and right to transistors that supposedly replaced the former
@@zaiks0105 the problem is there is no backup for electronics or regulate gas tanks that are taken off of power. You can't even start your generators. It should be self explained how vital it is to have an emergency module that runs self sustained in case lines were cut off.
@@misterree1443 not only the water management. the catastrophe manager for NRW went to holiday even though he had the alarm from EFA system and german weather service.
Why don't you think that this is the God's warnings. First of all people never realise that God created this world, not to live blindly. This life on earth is for test. Whoever does good deeds they will go to Paradise, that is the life hereafter after the resurrection.

My heart go out to all families effected by this horrible flood. Its so nice to see people come together to help. I pray for Germany, Austria, Belgium and The Netherland for quick recovering.
As a Dutchman all I can say is : water management, take it seriously. Yes, these are unprecedented floodings, regardless if climate change is to blame or not, doesn't mean you shouldn't plan for it. Nature has given us several warning shots over many years. Excessive water flow needs to be directed to overflow areas. If that's not possible, move out of the danger zone. Nature is not going to make an exception for you.

Yes that's true. Many many volunteers from over Germany went there to help and even lots of animals are evacuated. Often I m not so happy with my country but now I feel touched by the many many helping hands there
4 military trucks left my home way up in north Germany today. They bring goods and people to help.

This extremely fast torrent of moving water did not give people a chance to get out of the way. In Central America, you have mud slides due to deforestation. This is not the case. I would not re-build there as it will happen again.. The water is simply coming up.....Europe will sink into the ocean, according to Edgar Cayse's map. The coastal US will all sink and the Mississippi river will dump the Great lakes into the Gulf of Mexico. I live in Memphis so I will drown ; if it happens in my life time and it may. . We do not live for ever. Organic bodies have a relatively short time to occupy earth, and then, we move on. That is nature.
Of course typhoon prone areas like us are more used to these thus we have more appropriate infastracture. We dont have elaborate underground tunnels for electricity and plumbing. West Germany is not used to these flooding and their infastracture just gave out leading to massive sinkholes.

And how many of those people affected drive diesel cars and SUV’s? If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Ahh, but I forgot todays culture - everyone else is always to blame, never take responsibility for anything.
@@techevo Well, Germany is probably on of the most environmental-countries globally. And even if only Germany became "totally neutral" reg. the pollutions of the globe, many other big countries are not that advanced. And their pollutions would still backfire on the whole world. But I agree that we all need to do everything to curb and stop all kinds of pollutions - globally. But nevertheless it may be interesting to know that statistics show that these kinds of horrible floodings killing many people already occured in medieval times in Germany - partly in exactly those areas that were hit just days ago, ,partly in other areas
Every now and then nature shows us how powerless we actually are. It's humbling. Humanities greatest enemy is arrogance. With all the scientists and technologies existing in Germany, 15 minutes was all it took to take those huge area back to middle age. My heart goes with all those who lost their loved ones and their home.

I'm kinda having mixed feelings. When huge floods happened in Poland in 2011, Germany sent a "rescue kid" and it was supposed to be essential things donated by German people and when it arrived, it turned out to be just junk (almost empty bottles of shampoo, used underwear, etc), the volunteers reported that it was hard to find anything that can be given to people and there was a huge disappointment... I guess people still mainly have a mindset of helping "their people only" but I hope the world changes
@@LovelyAngel. Do you have any links in which you can read something about it? (Shouldn't mean I don't believe you, I'm German btw) Something like that actually happens again and again that things don't arrive as they should. See donating clothes to 3rd world countries for example. The best is usually taken out beforehand and often only rubbish arrives in these countries. That usually has to do with the people in between (forwarding agents, aid organization helpers, etc.) and not with the donors. But either way, that sucks, I hadn't heard of it at the time.
The gouvernement could have prevented this loss of lifes from happening, they were warned one week before the event and they did nothing to warn the population
@@LovelyAngel. We accommodate and supporting thousands of polish homeless people since years in our German towns with much more than "almost empty bottles of shampoo, used underwear, etc" let me tell you this. I hope this is also shown on polish Media about the "german mindset ". Peace
Aaand here we go - we need somebody to blame for all of this.... There were warnings- yes. Strong rains and the potential for floodings were announced. But the nature of this catastrophe is precisely what made the predictions and warnings insufficient: nobody in these areas had ever experienced torrential rainfall and floods of this magnitude because they were absolutely unnormal.
Yes ! the Ahr highest level was 3.10m since the records began (during a flood). Before it was washed away, the station had measured a water level of over 7 m. That was impossible of knowing that would happen because there was no comparable flood.
you are right with water so deep and travelling so fast as more rain comes who can run not mention amidst cars swirling like toys Most power went quickly as all was flooded Connections were lost
Actually in that region where the ahr is (a river) its pretty common that it floods its because people have build houses right beside the river and down hill its not a question of if its a question of when
@@connor964 and a question of the severity - and that is my point. if you live in a place that only knows floods of 1.5 or 3 meters and suddenly you are hit by 7 or 9 that is just an unpredictable increase.
Live in Belgium and I remember the weatherman warning 2 days in advance it would rain like never before and people should prepare for it, yet like any other disaster coming our way, we just don't listen
@Tagedieb evacuate camp sites, block roads that are at risk for deep water, shelter people next to rivers, alert people who can't get to a second floor easily, shelter the poor and elderly, ...
@Вадим Вадимович sorry I meant the terrible riots we're having where they are burning and looting and killing people. I'm sorry if I was inappropriate I have the deepest sympathy for Germany in their terrible plight.

We Germans love Chinese People, because they are hard working, smart, kind, good thinking and masters in cooking food. Chinese here in Germany are never accepting money by social programs. They want to earn money by sweating and working.
of course it could have been prevented, the scientist warned the government officals full 24 hours before it happened, but I guess whoever received the warning never took it seriously
The politicians at the top don't have any problem to tax the people alot for the "environment", but when the "enviroment" makes something happen like this, you dont see the politicians anywhere or do anything usefull at all. They only come to gawk and be useless and maybe give a nice sounding speech somewhere, wich in itself is also useless. It's times like these that people's worth truly shows, and as such the only conclusion i make from this is that politicians are truly the money snd power hungry leeches they appear to be.

We’ve got rain radar, with automated algorithms potential flooding can be detected. There are also emergency broadcast systems on smartphones which can be used. In the UK they kept some old air-raid sirens in regularly flooding areas to warn of danger. Perhaps a combination of these ideas could be used to implement a global flooding prediction and warning system, as these events are on the rise.
germany doesnt really have a network of air raid sirens anymore. some of the older towns and villages do, but its not a very widespread thing and many arent even registered. therefore there isnt a real disaster warning system that uses them that i know of.
Kreis Euskirchen has them in abundance. They are still used to alert local firemen whenever they have to see to an emergency. The thing with this flood is that although there were warnings for problems arising from heavy rain, it didn’t seem to be happening at first. Rain wasn’t even continuous or that much in my opinion, at least Not where I live. The most and strongest rains came at the end, as the land was already saturated. Then suddenly in the evening roads turned into rivers in just two hours time. At least that was so where I live in the elevated part of town, where we only had to deal with local rainwater. I can only imagine how things must have changed in the lower part, where all that water converged with the water from the creek. It was just so very sudden.
The alarms would go off at the very time the water surges.....people still will not get the time to find a safe place. Europe is sinking. Check Edgar Cayse's library in Va Beach, Virginia. His map of the US after the " floods" is pretty amazing......Some people are relocating into the high hills, where flood water will not reach them. He predicted it, as he could see the future. He did not give dates, likely not to panic people.......Psychics never give dates......they try to give warnings, but leave it up to the people to figure it out.
It says and means a lot that so many help each other out rather than looting and destroying buildings and businesses. It says a lot about the mentality of the culture. They will be able to rebuild like they did after the war.
My heart goes out to everyone who's been affected, especially those missing loved ones. Flash floods suck. All you can do is hope to get out of the way. After 2013 in Colorado, I never want to live in a mountain valley with a river, or even a creek. Not unless I'm well above the water.

Stay strong Germany from Poland (if anyone reads this comment, don't go in the replies, it's a real shitstorm down there. I guess Poland cannot wish Germany luck XD)
Nothing much could have been done at the time - quiet small rivers, not much more than streams, became raging vast torrents within fifteen minutes. The huge volume rate of rain on upland hills was the cause.
Exactly, I've been helping out family in Germany salvaging this weekend. An small and insignificant stream of maximum 1 meter wide changed into a raging river which flooded their house in 5 minutes. No one could have warned them for this.
No nothing could have been done eh? I guess building on flood plains and natural soakaways were no a big enough clue..This is a true testament to the stupidity and arrogance of Mankind..You reap what you sow..

The colonial Dutch arrived in the coast of Namibia in 1793 and seized the port of Walvis Bay, the most popular port of the country, and slaughtered the inhabitants there.
The port of Walvis Bay, which was seized by the Dutch, was then used as a slave port.

@@Egooist. hello dear how are you?
Hello german speaker here. There was actually a memeber of the water level and emergency control, who did a very angry interview in our news. He said that there is a servere lack of monitoring of water levels in smaller rivers because the government has not yet invested in them or invested in people that stand and guard in cases of servers weather warnings. Also a lot of power supplies falied because everything is electronical and no longer manual in case of a power outage like we have seen due to the flash floods. The infrastructure to help once disaster struck is very good in germany but there were servere faults in monitoring, prevention, taking the situation seriously and acting to alarm people during the night. Also a lot of people died in their cellar or in the garage because they wanted to save their cars or manage the water levels in their home and drowned because the water levels rose within minutes. If we have learned one thing - don't go after your valuables. Grab your loved ones and get out.
" no longer manual " ... Everything has its place. Few know and appreciate the importance of context. I recently discovered something about vacuum tubes that will beat left and right to transistors that supposedly replaced the former
@@zaiks0105 the problem is there is no backup for electronics or regulate gas tanks that are taken off of power. You can't even start your generators. It should be self explained how vital it is to have an emergency module that runs self sustained in case lines were cut off.
Thank you for that comment so the water management agencies have had there hands tied. They must be absolutely fuming with rage.
@@misterree1443 not only the water management. the catastrophe manager for NRW went to holiday even though he had the alarm from EFA system and german weather service.
Why don't you think that this is the God's warnings. First of all people never realise that God created this world, not to live blindly. This life on earth is for test. Whoever does good deeds they will go to Paradise, that is the life hereafter after the resurrection.

As a Dutchman all I can say is : water management, take it seriously.
Yes, these are unprecedented floodings, regardless if climate change is to blame or not, doesn't mean you shouldn't plan for it. Nature has given us several warning shots over many years. Excessive water flow needs to be directed to overflow areas. If that's not possible, move out of the danger zone. Nature is not going to make an exception for you.

I guess the US is also an example to the world because every time there're catastrophes people of all walks of life help.
Well, there is a reason we rely unlike most other countries mostly on volunteer fire brigades. It works if many people pull together.
4 military trucks left my home way up in north Germany today. They bring goods and people to help. The problem was that some regions where not accessible for some days and the country did not reach to all people that are able to offer help. All paperworks and strategies that locals did not have in their hands.

@@LovelyAngel.
Do you have any links in which you can read something about it? (Shouldn't mean I don't believe you, I'm German btw)
Something like that actually happens again and again that things don't arrive as they should. See donating clothes to 3rd world countries for example. The best is usually taken out beforehand and often only rubbish arrives in these countries.
That usually has to do with the people in between (forwarding agents, aid organization helpers, etc.) and not with the donors.
But either way, that sucks, I hadn't heard of it at the time.

Aaand here we go - we need somebody to blame for all of this....
There were warnings- yes. Strong rains and the potential for floodings were announced. But the nature of this catastrophe is precisely what made the predictions and warnings insufficient: nobody in these areas had ever experienced torrential rainfall and floods of this magnitude because they were absolutely unnormal.
Yes ! the Ahr highest level was 3.10m since the records began (during a flood). Before it was washed away, the station had measured a water level of over 7 m. That was impossible of knowing that would happen because there was no comparable flood.
Cloudbust happened... It is happened in my place also sudden and fast flash flood... It is not the fault of authority or scientists
you are right with water so deep and travelling so fast as more rain comes who can run not mention amidst cars swirling like toys Most power went quickly as all was flooded Connections were lost
Actually in that region where the ahr is (a river) its pretty common that it floods its because people have build houses right beside the river and down hill its not a question of if its a question of when
@@connor964 and a question of the severity - and that is my point. if you live in a place that only knows floods of 1.5 or 3 meters and suddenly you are hit by 7 or 9 that is just an unpredictable increase.

@@xavierzacheriah6038 Yes man
no word to describe our shock, but here I want to share positive energy to German that I am moved by the German spirit
We Germans love Chinese People, because they are hard working, smart, kind, good thinking and masters in cooking food. Chinese here in Germany are never accepting money by social programs. They want to earn money by sweating and working.
Prayers to Germany from Colby KS USA
Thank you very much. May God bless you. Best wishes to USA from Germany.
The German people are very organized. They will get through this.
Well they messed up here...how is that being organised?
of course it could have been prevented, the scientist warned the government officals full 24 hours before it happened, but I guess whoever received the warning never took it seriously
I don't know where you live, but the floords were really bad
Hmmm, God also gave a warning about this disaster over a year ago..
It's very difficult in India we had one such flood in utrakhank thousands died.
Tsunami is easier to predict then these kind of floods .
@@honesty2152 they give more attention to the jabs( of virus with high recovery)......
God forbid this flood happen in my country. The government's excuses be like: "You see, even Germany couldnt handle this".
And exactly what shythole country do you come from?
@@dentatusdentatus1592 loooolll all countries have shitholish sides to them
@@dentatusdentatus1592 Probably England.
The politicians at the top don't have any problem to tax the people alot for the "environment", but when the "enviroment" makes something happen like this, you dont see the politicians anywhere or do anything usefull at all. They only come to gawk and be useless and maybe give a nice sounding speech somewhere, wich in itself is also useless.
It's times like these that people's worth truly shows, and as such the only conclusion i make from this is that politicians are truly the money snd power hungry leeches they appear to be.
All government in the world will be destroyed N killed very neAr in ARMAGEDON, JehOvAh GOd Said that in DANIEL 2:44-45,sO, WOrship JehOvAh GOd fAther Of Jesus b4 it's 2 late because d end is very neAr, Jeremiah 25:33, mAthew 4::10
Extremely sorry for them. I love Germany. I was tearful when I heard the news. Praying for them.
thank you!
All my prayers are for you, Germany.ı'm so sad about the flood and send you my Best wishes and sympathy from Turkey.. 🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏

Roughly about 105 yrs ago, this happened in Germany. Severe flood devastation in certain regions. When the storm eventually lifted and weather cleared, several giant (Zeppelin) airships were loaded with equipment, supplies, workers, and flown in to help.

So sad seeing such loss and destruction.Stay strong! Much Love from Poland
Here's what you should do to save you and your loved ones.
1 make sure that you have enough non-perishable food, water, flashlight, radio, battery pack, medications, also, if there is a flood coming to your area. Please leave as sooner the better, make sure you have enough clean clothes to take with you and your loved ones.
2 find a better locations, the big cities are not the safest place for you. Look up on Google for inactive underground bunkers and caves.
This will comes in handy for you and your loved ones to get out of dangerous situations.
This what helping people do. Not praying!

I think we are all going to need each other in the coming months and years. I fear this is the real start of global warming and it’s going to get worse I am sure. All we can do is try and prepare ourselves in the best way we can. But sadly I don’t think we will. Do the best you can though🇬🇧.

OH, PLEASE. IMAGINARY FRIEND IS HELPING OUT? THERE'S NOTHING TO HELP YOU. LEARN HOW TO HELP PEOPLE
We’ve got rain radar, with automated algorithms potential flooding can be detected. There are also emergency broadcast systems on smartphones which can be used. In the UK they kept some old air-raid sirens in regularly flooding areas to warn of danger. Perhaps a combination of these ideas could be used to implement a global flooding prediction and warning system, as these events are on the rise.
germany doesnt really have a network of air raid sirens anymore. some of the older towns and villages do, but its not a very widespread thing and many arent even registered. therefore there isnt a real disaster warning system that uses them that i know of.
Kreis Euskirchen has them in abundance. They are still used to alert local firemen whenever they have to see to an emergency. The thing with this flood is that although there were warnings for problems arising from heavy rain, it didn’t seem to be happening at first. Rain wasn’t even continuous or that much in my opinion, at least Not where I live. The most and strongest rains came at the end, as the land was already saturated. Then suddenly in the evening roads turned into rivers in just two hours time. At least that was so where I live in the elevated part of town, where we only had to deal with local rainwater. I can only imagine how things must have changed in the lower part, where all that water converged with the water from the creek. It was just so very sudden.
The alarms would go off at the very time the water surges.....people still will not get the time to find a safe place. Europe is sinking. Check Edgar Cayse's library in Va Beach, Virginia. His map of the US after the " floods" is pretty amazing......Some people are relocating into the high hills, where flood water will not reach them. He predicted it, as he could see the future. He did not give dates, likely not to panic people.......Psychics never give dates......they try to give warnings, but leave it up to the people to figure it out.
When you have 4 months of rain happen in 24 hours those systems are not effective
@@linanicolia1363 *Europe is sinking* -- from collapsing the D.U.M.B.s and other underground tunnels.
It says and means a lot that so many help each other out rather than looting and destroying buildings and businesses. It says a lot about the mentality of the culture. They will be able to rebuild like they did after the war.
Great to see people helping each other
hindsight is a wonderful thing. rescuers are working so hard. we should be praising them fior their heroic efforts
My heart goes out to everyone who's been affected, especially those missing loved ones. Flash floods suck. All you can do is hope to get out of the way. After 2013 in Colorado, I never want to live in a mountain valley with a river, or even a creek. Not unless I'm well above the water.

Stay strong Germany from Poland
(if anyone reads this comment, don't go in the replies, it's a real shitstorm down there. I guess Poland cannot wish Germany luck XD)
thank you!!
@Zaki SSGSS why?
@Zaki SSGSS I haven't got a problem with being poor. At least I have friends (:
@Zaki SSGSS quit spitting bile
You not helping them out. Sthu!!!
Nothing much could have been done at the time - quiet small rivers, not much more than streams, became raging vast torrents within fifteen minutes. The huge volume rate of rain on upland hills was the cause.
Exactly, I've been helping out family in Germany salvaging this weekend. An small and insignificant stream of maximum 1 meter wide changed into a raging river which flooded their house in 5 minutes. No one could have warned them for this.
That is not true. Look how the dutch people have prevented. They gave the river more room for this flooding. Almost no victims here only flooding
@@npc0197 Bottlenecks in narrow valleys give excess water no way to go, except up and deeper and faster.
@@npc0197 Comparisons are odious
No nothing could have been done eh? I guess building on flood plains and natural soakaways were no a big enough clue..This is a true testament to the stupidity and arrogance of Mankind..You reap what you sow..
Hearts with you all in Germany from Scotland 🏴
Thank you very much from Germany 💕
helping volunteers are really admirable. 👍🏼
