- This is all the flooding I have witnessed thus far in Fayetteville from the 15th to the 17th. The Cape Fear and Little River are still on the rise causing major issues. The Little River has crested way above what was predicted and shutdown many roads. Today, the 18th, people are turning 15 minute drives to work into hour drives to avoid shutdown roads.
You used eveything possible to capture this by using a car, truck, boat, motorcycle etc amazing job.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. my thoughts and prayers go out to all of the folks in the Carolinas. I have a lot of family up there. I live in South Florida where we get hurricanes all the time and I've never seen anything like this here! God bless you all!
Now this man is what i call a country boy. He took us from a car, to walking, motorcycle to a canoe. We saw water, a dead beaver, lizzard and roaches... nothing fake about this reality... pray for downsouth
I'm so sorry this is happening to you. All. I will be praying for NC.
Linnette. Crispin uhfkllmgj
Not that it really matters but I don't think he's from around here...we get lots of transplants due to the military base .....accent doesn't sound like any I grew up with here....cool he got to do that stuff tho...I was trapped on the poor side of the river from there in East Fayetteville lol
yep.. Jeff Spicoli would be so proud of his gnarly wordage
Linnette. Crispin kayak not canoe
Really, a great video, Mark. Can’t imagine the stress you’re all going through.
It's good to see real news for a change, but I hate too see so many people loose everything. Thanks for sharing sir we've been praying for y'all down there. I've never been through something like that before, it must be terrifying. God have mercy.
righhhhtttt because the new is "fake" right?
Thanks, Mark, for uploading the video. We desperately wanted to know how the Fayetteville area was affected.
Thanks for the vid Mark .I was curios about what was going on there. That sucks for all those people.
Thank u for this we stay by 71st high school and i thought we were bad but downtown is messed up.it was something about this just made me sad i dont know why but it did
Thank you for this tour. Greetings from Queensland Australia. Our cyclone seasons starts here in a few months.
The timeline availability here is fantastic. You went to high impact areas before, during, and (relatively) towards the end. Really great job on the video!
thanks for making & sharing! 2 years ago there was a 6 hour rainstorm where I live & I had to wade home. I passed a doorway to a business & the entire door jamb was lined with palmetto bugs (giant roaches) seeking shelter!
Super interesting video. Thanks for all the great footage.
Glad your safe. Currently waiting for the flood waters to receed to go to work and help with recovery relief.
Imagine all the hazardous waste in that water.
I know this video isn't meant to be funny but you crack me up in the best way-lmao
Great video of the flooding. I feel for the peoples loss of this terrible flood event. "Hats off" to all 1st responders, volunteers in helping this folks and their animals during this disaster, they are the greatest.
Excellent footage. I really did not realize Florence did that much damage.
Now THAT'S some sign-splitting action @ 12:26!
Lol I didn't notice that before!
We are in Camp Lejeune, NC. It sucks to see surrounding areas going through flooding. Hope your home was good and everything turning out ok now. New subs here . Take care.
so your house, it`s still safe (unflooded) ? What about Woody….does he live near the flooded area ?
My house has no damage. Woody is good to. His area wasn't hit as bad.
Im glad you made it safely through. I live in Kinston and we had flooding and still do have flooding in some areas
WOW. I AM SO SORRY. THERES A COUPLE PEOPLE THAT ACTUALLY VISITED SOME PLACES AND DONE TH-camS OF THE HURRICANE. I JUST REALIZED YOU ACTUALLY LIVE THERE IN FAYETTEVILLE. WOW I HOPE YOUR OK. I LITTERALLY CRYED THINKING OF ALL OF YOU. FAYETTEVILLE, WILMINGTON, ETC. WE IN SCOTLAND COUNTY GOT IT BAD BUT NOTHING EVEN CLOSE TO WHAT YOU GUYS GOT. NOT ONE PERSON IN THIS TOWN SHOULD EVEN COMPLAIN AFTER LOOKING AT THESE OTHER PLACES. ALTHOUGH WE DID HAVE A DEATH FROM MY UNDERSTANDING. BLESS YOUR HEART. YOU GUYS ARE IN MY PRAYERS AND THOUGHTS. WELL BE DOING ALL WE CAN TO DONATE. WE LOVE YOU
Thanks for sharing this, and for not talking too much. I often find that I am distracted by too much talk. What are those insects on the log at 7:08-7:15 - ants?
Bruh Everything you do is stuff I’m into. So glad I found this channel
No fake news here. Thanks for sharing this man I’m going to share it on my Facebook
Why can't I fined home videos on this hurricane on TH-cam like I used to. Each time I try it goes strain to mainstream controlled media. Google is directing the traffic of this storm to control the narrative (censorship) MSM is loosing it's core audience because they Lie to mush just for ratings. Are they really that desperate? They are always telling us how to think, feel and see. People are catching on to it so they're blocking you tubers from posting home video's of this storm. How could we just sit and allow this to happen? people are to busy to fight for rights these days or they just don't care about being silenced.
Jimi Henrod Are you using a shitty search engine🤔 I was able to find plenty of videos. Some of ya'll have News Derangement Syndrome ☺
Looks like you pass some old fancy houses. Were the old houses built higher up to protect from flooding than newer houses?
I live college lakes and helped out at my fire station is Westarea FD. On 7:53 that house off of Melstone on the end had their house flooded.
You are onw brave fella...thank you for sharing this footage!
Go to cape fear river in lillington, that shits touching the bottom of the bridge
I live in Robeson County and it's hard to see roads you've traveled on your entire life under water. It's unreal. #CAROLINASTRONG
The Earth will open up to help the woman in the wilderness.
thanks for posting stay safe
Next video...
How to use a paramotor to power a kayak ?
Whats ur bike? sounds/looks like a suzuki DRZ400? or DR650?
DR650
be careful about the pavement by the bridge the pavement can still be up and under it washed out
U better than any wather channel
Didn't know beavers could drown. Then again, I didn't know turtles could drown either until I found one in my pool one morning.
Dumping is a problem the sofa
I can't believe it's the big murch
Love you vid
Time more dams were built so when they run out of water they have plenty sad all these peeps homes,but thats how stup us as human are building were swamps actually are,LIFE GOES ON
I love your deep in thought selfie's. Hahahahaha
Hope they had insurance
Where are the people who own phones. Why aren't they telling us how they are ? I pray they are.
Except this person there is nobody where all people got to there?
Good shit man.
I live in Fayetteville
That's no creek that's a God damn river
Oh my god😳😳
nice job showing what this weather bomb of mass destruction has done to Our Sisters n Brothers in the Carolina's. Polish Pres. Duda came here to ask from us thru out president that will help his people, country economy. Pres. Trump took Duda on a tour of the weapon of mass destruction caused his people & nation. I wonder if Duda ever thought about what they could do for us...or if he could give info on who is behind this weather bombing. Sickening. BTW Mark....I thought there was a mound of cherries, which looked like one of my favorite species which is Reiner Cherries...until I saw them moving...those BUGS ARE HUGE...!!!! What the heck are those things???!! It's right at 13:09....would really like to know...are they venomous? My heart goes out to you all....my small town was attacked in May 2017 by a tornado....the air quality has been very bad ever since. So need a snow fall of large snow flakes to purify the air so get ready....when a place has been devastated by winds & rain....gong to see breathing & health problems significantly worsen. Thanks for sharing your video w/us, Mark. Plz keep us posted how everyone...n your community is doing.. Our Prayers & Thoughts are w/you all....wish I could help.
Wow! I didn't notice that before.
....I think its fine
Wow guys stay safe.Hope everything is ok with yall
Your video was better than the local news coverage. Thanks for sharing it.
Thoughts and prayers for the dead beaver......
hahahaha
More.like bore ragnorak
Better a dead beaver than a live water moccasin or alligator!😟😟😟😟
Great video. Really appreciate you doing that. It makes such an impact when you can see it up close vs. from a news chopper. Stay Safe!
Not trying to hate, I appreciate the perspective. But I don't think people realize how inherently dangerous kayaking through flooded urban areas is. I'm in Houston, and several people lost their lives doing this.. During a flood, Maintenence and repair is being done in these areas to restore power. And even generators back-feeding on main lines is enough to kill in standing water. As an Electrician, I get hit all the time, and sometimes you have a "blowback scenario" the force will knock you off the current. In water, esp. a kayak where your essentially sitting in the water, touching nearby objects to navigate etc.. Is just really risky man.
Y
Also avoid any downed electric lines. The are deadly, even if they appear insulated - they're not. I knew someone there in Fayetteville (different event) killed because he thought the polymer coating would make the line safe to touch by insulating the electric current from him as he moved the wire. No , it's probably just to protect the line from corrosion or something. It won't provide you protiection like occurs with household electrical cords. You will die, if you assume downed lines are insulated to protect you.
Feels like a survival game
You're braver than I am! I wouldn't be sticking my feet in the water, not unless I had to!
That’s going to be some cleanup operation. 😞
Good 'ol Fayettenam, floods when it drizzles and yes, yes we know what's in that water. Shower well Grasshopper! Shower well.
+NCPPGpilot LOL.. I finally left there 5 yrs ago after 26 years...not much good has ever come out of that place but murder crime and insanity! Glad I dont have to live there no more!
Feeling that way I’m glad you left. You should not stay in a place feeling that way. I have been here 58 years and found great local people who enjoy and improve this place with all their heart. I love calling Fayetteville home.
+kathy shoeshop I was one of those people who tried to improve Fville with all their heart and left many good friends behind.. used to live in Haymount.. my efforts were only appreciated by people who appreciate Fayetteville Musicians which are none of the powers you claim to be wanting to improve the place.. the same kind of improvement has been going on since I moved there in 1980 and nothing has come of it except 4th Friday.. As a Local of course you love it.. I used to love it too when i lived right next door to mayor JL Dawkins on Ellington Street. he was the first one who tried to make a decent place out of downtown.. I ve been very involved w downtown so as I said i am one of the ones who tried to change things but it was not appreciated nor did I ever make a dime! Did you know that the Fville Dogwood festival does NOT pay a dime to local performers?
God Have Mercy 🙏🏼We are praying for all affected ❤️& for rescue workers💟
I don’t think anybody really knows what’s in that water!!
This is a time where even after i realize how lucky i am through this hurricane . Right next door to fayetteville. All i can do is think of all the other familys today everywhere. I can barely clean up . Maybe ill stary tomorrow. Right now all i can do is think of others through this devastation. What we got will never compare to these places so close to us dureing this hurricane. Were praying for all ....from scotland county laurinburg. Love you all.
Great video Mark. Thanks for posting this. Hope your place is ok.
That sucks. Good coverage, thanks for sharing. Amazing how desolate it is.
That beaver did not drown it got run over by a vehicle
Would not get comfy while on concrete bridges or what evers.. There is allot of force behind that mass of water flowing.
It would be cool to see paramotor footage of the area if it doesn't get in the way of emergency services.
An engine out would be extremely inconvenient at best and potentially lethal at worst. Not to mention the wet wing, potential to wreck gear, get stranded and the shitty weather
Thanks for the video! Wow that’s a lot of water ! Cool bike btw ! Take care! Peace ✌️ from Welland Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
Nice job Man! Better than most from any media source. Your down to earth narration with some light humor added was much appreciated.
I felt so bad when I saw that poor Beaver you have done awesome job with all this footage it's just unbelievable all that water how sad and all the damage that it's done😞
Can’t fly? Me either. My relay switch is burnt out. Nice Kayaking though. Stay safe! I just missed that hurricane. I pray for those in it. I pray for the death toll to stop increasing! I’m back home in sunny Arizona!
Great images I think Best reporting of a flooding for sure
Great footage! Hope you didn’t get too much damage at your place. We had it easy here in Charlotte by comparison.
Hoping you and yours make it through this ok. We had our share down here for Harvey and wish that mess on no one.
If you could find a good place to launch from it would be interesting to see how extensive the flooding is from the air... but you'd have some majorly limited options for landing in the event of an engine out to the point where it could be dangerous.
Wow Mark. I'm so sorry for you all. Glad to see you're safe-ish. Keep your head up.
Mark you're a cowboy I would love to party with. When do we get to see the paramotor view of this flood? ;)
You know what makes me laugh? The fact that people stay in area's like this where they know will flood if bad weather comes. People should all move away from rivers and coast lines to prevent their homes getting lost. Why have they not realized this yet? Crazy. Just don't live where you know floods can happen. Leave those places and go to where your homes will be safe from all this destruction.
Let's move everyone to one spot to get away from Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Fires, Droughts, lightning, Earthquakes, Hail, Ice, Snow, Floods, disease, landslides, etc so we can all live in one happy spot 👊
Dude. The socks and the dress shoes while on the motorcycle? C'mon man.
...dude come on man, commenting on the socks and shoes if another man?...fruit
Holly crap! Making the best of it I guess. Be safe. Help who you can. 😲

Thanks for the video Mark. Hope the recovery is fast. Stay safe.
Fascinating to watch. I liked the drone footage and that outro. Poor insects at 13:08! That really hits home how everything is affected by events like this.

I hope everything returns to normal very soon, hugs from México.
That's a lot of water. Great video, better than what the news showed.
Looks like we really did dodge the bullet in Raleigh.
Thanks for the video.
Been trying to find out what is going on.
The news just shows us the same old shit over and over
Well Goober this is nothing compared to what Hurricane Irma did to Florida, and I lived it, 110C at night with no power no wind blowing, 90+C during the day with little wind, ALL radio stations offline Radio waves were flat lined I'm not even sure if the HAM radio's were working in my area, if the Repeaters were effected by the power outage then they were likely down as well. The only cell tower within 5 miles was not working couldn't make calls, Every Gas station had no Gas the Gas tanks had to drive anywhere from 2-4 hour drives back and forth with a single tank of gas the less then 20 minutes after the Gas was in the ground it was gone... Anyone who needs to keep their medication cold was basically fuck'ed, YOU really need to prepare if you have loved ones that require their medication to stay cold, If you got a chest freezer I'd highly recommend that you fill the whole damn freezer with bottle water 48 hours before something like this happens, You can go a long time without food, however water is gonna be the biggest needed thing to have.
And if you live in a state like I do (Florida) 1-2 months before Hurricane Season you should, buy anywhere from 15-45 cases of water and I'm talking about 24-32 in a pack. Every thing that is wildlife is fair game to eat, means any fish which is normally not allowed to be kept is now out the window and them rules no longer apply.
Thank you for sharing. My condolences to the victims of this.
IS EVERY SINGLE HOME IN FAYETTEVILLE FLOODED ? I SURE AM PRAYING FOR YOU ALL.
YES PLZ SEND SHOP VACS.
@@Questchaun the world should start a new thing and start building houses different one day to maybe their homes being flooded if possible. Never knw what we could cme up with.
where the fuck are the alligators, fake news.
natures cleansing her parasites
Wow, Crazy amount of water.
Love the video. Hate that this happened. I would love to chat with you about hurricane preparations and items that were needed for this type of event.
Super brave of you. Thanks dude.
At this juncture, this writer feels life is becoming too short, and worries if the message of life will reach the people of this world in time.
The extreme weather or lack thereof, around the globe has become relentless. We have severe droughts in over 50% of world, around 37% severe precipitation with rain, snow, or hail overwhelming the tributaries, and storms of all elements at an all time high, we need hero’s to step up.
As one reviews the so called “Weather Forecasting Channels”, you would think “Meteorologist” would be on the forefront of “Demanding Building Code Reform”. Meteorologist sees firsthand the devastation as a result of “Inadequate Building Codes.” We must ask “Why haven’t they made it a point to change this disconcerting outcome?” Where a person’s home is no longer a shelter, their natural rights of prosperity, property, and sovereignty swept away in one deadly swoop. Entire family tree whipped off the face of the earth and Meteorologist want to talk about the wind direction at the Cubs Baseball Game. Where is their Humanity? Meteorologist are more about looking good then saving lives. Looking good on camera, as a forecaster, as a hero that warns us/reminds us our lives are not our own, that is all a Meteorologist is for us. When our $350,000 new home is built of twigs, insurance companies, FEMA, UN, Red Cross, the National Guard and the Government have more Rights than we do when it comes to getting our lives back. Why do we fight to get back what we already had and should have never lost in the first place if our “Inherent Natural Rights” meant anything?
Meteorologist were at one time, folks that worked to protect our communities, now they only warn our communities, and walk through the aftermath time and time again, without a word of outrage. th-cam.com/video/uYvC5lBbfcE/w-d-xo.html
interesting video, amazing how deserted the place is, that smell is probably sewage backup, probably not very healthy to get that stuff on you.
Gov. Cooper should just keep on saying: "IN God WE TRUST" instead of warning people that God does not exist because why would a god drown his children.
Thanks for your real true and unforgotful insightful courage of being there getting real footage..you should start your own real new's channel..I'd back you up 210%..good luck and be safe out there my brother from another mother..
Howdy Mark, sorry everything is almost lost caused by the flood. Question: Tell me where is your vest/lifesaver while you are in the canoe? Safety first.
