When I visited the Northern Areas of Pakistan and saw large boulders far away from the mountains, I asked a local about their origin. He explained that flash floods bring these massive boulders, weighing tons, along with them.
Absolutely, people in mountainous regions often have a deep, generational understanding of weather patterns. They’ve learned to recognize the signs of impending rain or storms based on experience and observation. It’s fascinating how this knowledge is passed down and how it shapes their response to natural events. Do you have any stories or insights about how local knowledge and traditions play a role in weather prediction or disaster preparedness?
If a person wants to be a Hero, showing off in front of crowds how brave you are crossing a flash flood - why bother asking for help when stuck in the middle of flash flood?
On my Hawaiian island many years ago, a popular trail to waterfalls was overtaken by an unexpected flash flood and several hikers lost their lives. The trail has been closed ever since. I was nervous watching this Hawaii footage because the water level can rise in seconds to overtake you.

Absolutely, Mother Nature has a way of reminding us of her power and resilience. No matter how much we build or alter the landscape, nature always finds a way to reclaim and reshape it. It’s a humbling reminder of the forces beyond our control and the importance of respecting and working with the natural world. Have you witnessed any particular events where nature made a striking comeback or showed its dominance?

That’s an incredible moment! It’s amazing (and a bit terrifying) to see how some drivers can act so recklessly, especially in hazardous conditions. It really highlights the importance of awareness and common sense on the road. Sometimes it feels like people forget the risks involved and make decisions that seem completely irrational. Have you seen other jaw-dropping driving moments that made you wonder about people’s decision-making?
If you ever suspect someone wearing a thobe/dishdash is going to do something incredibly stupid, with incredibly expensive equipment, you will _NEVER_ be disappointed.
Absolutely, floods can be incredibly overwhelming. The speed and force with which they can sweep away everything in their path are both awe-inspiring and terrifying. It’s a stark reminder of the raw power of nature and the importance of being prepared and aware of flood risks. Have you seen any particularly dramatic footage or stories about floods that really struck you?
great video, really impressive footage! but honestly, i think people often underestimate how quickly flash floods can happen. we should be more proactive about educating everyone on the signs to look for, instead of just watching these wild moments. what do you guys think?
@@eddarby469 not the case because of the population explosion post-industrial era, our cities and farms occupy waaaay more land now than ever. Doesn't help we learned how to farm on almost any soil. To OC: most areas in this video are deserts and have been for millenia so planting trees is not viable, would even risk the ones already there by taking a portion of the water. Reforestation would not stop flash floods bc it's a natural phenomena, we just gotta learn to live with them occasionally
Rocks without vegetation are indication that the rocks are occasionally flooded. If you are standing at those rocks during flood, you should retreat to higher grounds.
Sitting here watching the flood rescue and shaking my head - the guy is tying the rope on seemingly oblivious that if the other vehicle slips and gets washed away the frigging thing is going to wash straight over the top of him. But they survived, so I guess it classifies as 'gutsy' rather than 'stupid af'
I knew this one wouldn't turn out good. If you look closely at 2:46 you can see several what appear to be ghosts on the left hand side just before the vehicle enters the water.
North of India is a mountain range, the Pamir Knot is the highest range in elevation and has mount Everest, when the ice from those mountains in the north melt down seasonally, that's when the flash floods come
Never casually stroll on river bed. If you ever want to walk, you should be very alert for flash flood, and if notice any water, run as fast as you can to safety. If you can't escape within 2 to 3 minutes, 99 % chances you will be trapped and pulled away in the flood...

In Africa,when you see cows running .you follow them ASAP.they can somehow sense the floods miles away. Meanwhile how can I apload my videos on TH-cam?
What's surprising in this when you know when and where it's coming and you are ready to watch it with your family and ready with camera!
you can easily predict the flood when the nearest mountain is heavily under rain.

I have seen that. It was very scary and sad. It is just one of many flash flood videos which are better than the ones in this video.

Oh. The water level can rise in seconds? Huh. That must be where the word "flash" comes in?🤣

if they wear proper clothes.
It's mental how these floods come out of nowhere scary stuff, great video!
Its normal occurrence during rainy season.
I didn’t see any surprise flash floods … people were there waiting for it …

Me too 😅😅
exactly... they seem to wait fr the thrill until.they realise tht they r screwed
Well me too sitting waiting , Hopefully work like they advertised

Amazing! People see the danger and continue. Really stupid!

That rescue was awesome
Amazing video 😮
I'm enchanted by the magic of these incredible moments
Okay Dad. We saw the debris.
Amazing Nature
It really is!
Reforestation would help in a few of these places.
It is my understanding that we have many more trees now than we did 200 years earlier because we no longer heat with wood.

It's just a video but you can really fear the danger
Water weighs 8.3 pounds per gallon. Millions of gallons weigh hundreds of tons. People don't realize this.

First one was hardly a surprise, folks had their cameras ready 😂
Awesome
Very Nice 👍

Flood is not the flash When the flood come the people while become flash for a moment 😂😂
Its good to hear their thoughts
Surprise flash flood? Just happened to be cameras waiting to video the events.
OMG, people are idiots.
My only regret is that the last white car was not washed away.
It was so scary that if I couldn't run in time, my life would be in danger

Flash flood are common at hill areas during rainy season.
