This guys architect/engineer/builder should be given some sort of award. He should build everything on the island.
indeed
If only everyone was wealthy enough to afford their services.
@@erurevir yup the same truth is the majority of people in the Bahamas cannot afford houses that are able to withstand a storm like this.
@@WhoForgot2Flush I'm not especially familiar with the Bahamas specifically, do they have a big poverty problem there?
@@erurevir I'm not 100% sure because I've only been to Nassau. But yeah the houses there would easily be destroyed by this storm. I assume it's like most of the Caribbean islands, there are some really wealthy neighborhoods but also a lot of poorer areas.
Sending love from Antigua. Your house is brilliantly designed for Caribbean vectors. Best of luck man.
The world is falling apart outside and this guys calmness is unreal haha.
America.
At a certain point you just accept the situation you're in, you can only keep yourself in that "oh shit" state for so long, then you evaluate the situation and what your options are and accept them.
@@invertexyz i bet as soon as the water started to flood an inch, people were like "fuck"
shiiiiiiit, scary stuff. I think i'd ride it out too if i had a house on a hill for fuckin hurricane fortified. So much weed would be smoked
His level of calmness should be my goal..
Sending this here incase you dont read reddit:
Stilt homes like yours survived Katrina’s saltwater inundation here in Mississippi, only to collapse later due to corrosion of metal fasteners used to join floor joists to treated-wood pilings or even concrete pilings. You will have more immediate problems to deal with in the coming days and weeks, but tend to any kind of metal fasteners beneath your home exposed to saltwater - sooner than later.
props to the contractor who built that house.
This video is from the perspective of the most privileged of the Island. I can only imagine how the average person on the island is dealing with this storm. I can imagine it's frightening, dark, wet and noisy for most people.
And completely under water! Yikes
Wow. I can't imagine looking out my window and seeing that! Scariest thing I've seen.
I couldn’t finish. That was terrifying.
I can't imagine how stupid you must be to not board up your windows when you know 150 mph winds are coming.
@Robert Smith that's actually fascinating to me as I used to sell windows in Hawaii for discount windows and doors....and ii do believe one of my selling point was exactly that (I forget the exact numbers) so I retract my statement other than, he still should've boarded up his windows.
😬😱😱😱
Lots of love for you guys from Germany!
Jesus. Those last people on stilts. I hope that house holds and stays on the stilts. Crap! Now is scary.
Do not use his name in vain. Please!!
@@1ofhis518 It was not one bit in vain! It was an appropriate situation if I ever saw one.
@@liveoak144 you are so right! When I saw the disaster that was surrounding this family while he was filming, I also called on the name of Jesus! I have seen news of many disastrous hurricanes but I have never seen anything like that! It's terrifying to see video I can't even imagine being surrounded by the ocean like that and houses around you literally consumed by the ocean...we have already prayed in the name of Jesus that this storm calms and lives are spared.
Jesus is the Hispanic groundskeeper at the Golf Course, CALM DOWN!!!
Thank you for this incredible perspective. Bless you and your family.
Stay safe and report back please ,
I hope your house foundation can withstand the water pressure
He said the house is on stilts (likely concrete piers), so there would be no resistance to flow and therefore no buildup of pressure.
S. Hillier he also said the down stairs is full of water which means the bottom part will have pressure
@@malikothman5381 The interior of the house won't be part of the integrity of the structure, though.
Sir Digby Chicken Caesar
If water got inside it means it’s the same level as the out side water ,,
Yes pressure is on
After Sandy hit NJ/NY I went out to Long Beach Island NJ. There were houses on the beach that had pilings. Several houses had been picked up off of the piling foundation and dropped back down several feet over due to flooding.
The best reporting of Dorian, thus far.
You are the calmest person ever, I need you around in a crisis.
I am amazed at how calm you are. Hope all goes well for you and family (and everyone else there).
People, imagine the guy's house under that situation for 24 hours. Most of the houses aren't going to support those wind forces and flooding, at the same time, for so long. He didn't say it but this video is a kind of SOS. Let's pray for them.
If he has internet to post a video, I'm sure he is capable of calling for help if that's the case
@@viperfukgoogplus386 Call for help? Literally no one can help until the storm passes. What a terrifying position to be in.
@@viperfukgoogplus386 yes the services where not down. However even if he called ..who was gonna come? Tonight and tomorrow people are now trying to seek help cause the storm finally pas..
This guy is gonna be famous after this footage. Hope he survives.
Love from Montreal, Canada!
Incredible video! Good luck from New Orleans.
I was here a few weeks ago. Perfectly sunny, everything in view. Now knowing that it's underwater is... Insane, especially when I was there not so long ago. This is crazy.
Yeah it's really amazing how things can change overnight.
An amazing documentation of what is going on. It's catastrophically devastating. Can't imagine how the island will recover.
This is unbelievable footage. Praying for you guys. Can't imagine what people are going thru in 1 story buildings?
I’m sure those prayers are coming in super handy.
Being dead?
@@TexYMatt98 yeah honestly wtf was op thinking
They're either evacuated or dead lmao.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟5 Star video! Thanks for posting this...just amazing to see!
I am a frequent visitor to the Bahamas for the past 20 years. Planning on coming there this December staying at Ocean Reef. I know exactly where your house is located and I am praying for you and your family. Stay safe.
Good luck and thanks for posting this. We are worried about you guys, but just do the best you can. It will get better eventually.
Any updates on this family or their neighbors? Hopefully they are able to get evacuated or remain safe. So scary.
@D R How did he upload it if he doesn't have internet?
Elizabeth...I did some digging on various sites and found out that this man and his family are safe. They sent rescue to the house and they are ok.
@@ImTheBatchMan
Very good question, how?
He is very confident in his builder. Maybe the worst wind velocity had passed by this point. With 180+mph winds I'd want a plan B in case the builder took a shortcut somehow.
Lots of love for you guys from New Zealand💞💞
Ohhh my goodness... I cudnt imagine how strong his house in the storn.
OMG you guys had a very well built house! So sorry to see this
this is the most horrifying vision I've seen in ages.. Been in a half dozen or cyclones here in Australia and that Freaking screaming, howling wind gives me chills every time.. when you hear the roof nails being dragged out like fingernails on a blackboard you know your gonna have damages.. this home owner has a deliberately built strong residence but even then the water damage will be immense.
Staying calm saves energy. Kudos to him. Hope his family is safe. 🙏🏽
You know this storm just stalled over him for about a day. Its probably 80% worse than this video now
I heard 40 hours.
You might not believe me , but the person who recorded this is my neighbour. Technically not but actually is. I'm in the yellow house with pink ceiling. Well it was... MY house was underwater, MY house got destroyed and a boat is in our front yard and a dead crab also. We are continuing to work on it.
Man...your house looks like it's smack dab in the middle of the ocean.
I would love to find out if this man and his family survived. It looks to me that the homes located in Pine Bay are new and, hopefully, constructed of high-end materials.
this guy seems really calm, I'd be freaking out about then! just WOW!
That storm was just sitting there like this for days. I cant imagine the horror of the people who where not prepared as well as you. My prayers to them.
These hurricanes are getting too horrifying to live anywhere close to water. Can't wait to get out of Florida, I don't want to ever see something as scary as that. Hope this smart structure kept everyone safe.
I'm very impressed that your roof stayed intact what type of roof and how old is your roof
He definitely used hurricane ties.
@@LigerSupremacy does the house possibly have steel framing, and attached to that? Only way I would feel confident personally, but no clue how that works.
I hope you are fine. Thanks for sharing
I pray for GOD's mercy and grace to be with you and all in the Bahamas
ALL homes should be build like this one. Every life is important on earth. That is how we all should think instead of putting money before life, and then life will grant us all a good life. Probably would never be any storms at all if we all had higher thoughts of Life for one another.
I'm glad you're safe
Good luck from France
Praying for you all. Praying and believing this storm will end in Jesus name. Praying you are still safe.
@T OB The true Christian would pray to take the storm unto thyself.
@@deepstate8474 I don't have to do anything, because Jesus did it all on the cross when he was crucified. He calmed the raging seas once, He could have done it again. Mark 4: 35-41 ......... ~~PeAcE.~~
looks like a nice day at the beach
Praying for all! Please keep us updated! From Puerto Rico Karen
Thoughts and prayers do nothing but make yourself feel better...typical karen post... if thoughts and prayers did anything, there wouldn't have been 367 mass shootings in the past 365 days...
@@mooakfer It is really terrible what is going on in the world. I do not pray to make myself feel better. What makes me feel better is not important but what we can do to help those that will need us after Dorian is gone.
God bless you guy
I hope you made it through the storm...plz send an update. Prayers.
shameful no updates in the description whether they b dead or not. Nor a link to their pages etc. Names?
Thank you for sharing this. Hope you and your are OK
So scary. Sending love from Canada.
Looks like 110mph winds, nasty nasty. Your a decent distance from Dorian. Its 24 miles to your NE. Unfortunately its stationary and not moving away from bahamas. Storm surge behind Dorian is 18ft to 23ft. Good news is Dorian is weakening. Currently 125mph constant winds, pressure is rising and was just downgraded to a cat3. Still absolutely terrible at cat3 with that surge, but at least it's some good news for you. I've only been thru a cat3, and that was no fun at all. Don't want to experience a cat4 or 5 ever.
Good to see your in an ultra safe building. Wishing you and your family the best of luck
Congratulations. Poland sends their regards.
The sound of the gusting wind is absolutely terrifying. The whistles of an angry Quetzalcoatl.
Definitely, good comparison
Sending love and prayers your family will survive this hurricane. Scary footage.
I wouldn't stay there for any reason. All it takes is one boat to break free and hit their house...not to mention all the other projectiles. Good luck, I hope you and your neighbors are safe. I'm will help the area in some way. I hope to get down there with supplies soon.
Prayers for Bahamas 🙏🏼
May God be with you!!! It looks terrifying! Oh Lord please help these people!!
How is your house not underwater?
was gonna try to find a street view of this guys house but google maps doesn't even have a listing for Pine Bay. must be a new development.
We moved from pine bay two years ago, back to the uk, I can get it on Google ok, I think that was Dave Mackys house, we could see them from our house, which I guess is underwater now, we weren't up high, thinking of you all Den & Margie
Freeport too
Praying for you.stay safe.
No storm shutters? I'm impressed all the windows are still intact. Are they bulletproof?
Yes
He said they were. Stilts are probably heavy steel ones also.
thats hurricane glass. Super strong super heavy shatterproof glass. Can take a flying coconut at 140mph.
Thanks for that insight; as many have said here, terrifying. Hang in there bro (+ family), hope you make it to the other end. Just don't give up, despite the hell. Love from Trinidad. X
How the hell is this dude SO CALM!
Maybe he's just in shock.
Hoping you guys are okay. That's terrifying.
:(
He is really strong guy ...
God Bless you and keep you safe.. Prayers for everyone there. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Are you guys ok ? If you can let me know. Praying for you
Absolutely surreal. I hope you are all okay! Praying for the Bahamas. I'm in the US watching all this, they showed an aerial view of Abaco today, FOX News I think, it was awful, nothing standing and the air field is flooded.
Absolutely terrifying. I pray everyone survives. Especially heartbreaking to know so many animals won't :(
Be safe! Praying for all of you!
Material things can be replaced but life can't.
am i the only one that would actually leave somewhere when there are hurricane warnings?
If I lived where he is, I would most definitely leave. He has got to be extremely close to the ocean. It just seems like common sence to leave, live and then come back and see how the house held up! Especially when you can afford to do just that!
Prayers for you and your family
💙 It's like what do you do at that point? If the water level rises higher do you like climb on your roof and get blown by the storm?? That's crazy 💯💔
Oh my goodness that's awesome. Pray for them.
Are they still ok????
This looks so scary ... I feel so sad for all the wildlife and people who where unable to get to a safe place. I am preying for you and others safety
I have been thinking about all the ferals too. Hopefully their instincts took them to the high ground if any is around.
Show us the fridge
This man is proving that everyone of those "trusted" stupid news people who stand on the shore in raincoats could do the very same job from inside behind windows.
Wow! Godbless you a.d your family. You guys are in my prayers!
I’m so very sorry for you all down there god bless you.
This video is from yesterday around 10am any updates? hope he is ok🙏🙏....but since the hurricane stalled plus there was to be a super high tide the water probably rose a lot more😔😔
I’m waiting for Dorian to hit as we speak good luck from Daytona beach Florida
I really enjoyed this, I have this kinda situation when I was 8 yo
Praying for you guys
You know you can shoot video horizontally, just turn the phone sideways. Just saying.
Good job keeping your kool
I hope this guy and everyone around there are safe. The one main positive for this guy is that if he needs to he can float everyone out of the area to safety on his massive cojones.
Is that the raging La-ocean ?
If this passed trough my country there would be nothing left lol.
looks comfy
The people with horses on stilts and hurricane proof windows are fine. Um not looking forward to hearing about the fates of the people who aren't as privileged. 😢😢😢
Cat5/22ft surge + island = evacuate island!
Oh My goodness. Wow...! That's scary, jesus I hope they make out okay.
Dude, good luck!!!
Omg!and this sound!😰hope you are OK!greetings from Mauritius!we are in the cyclone zone too, i know how you feel!
There could be a whale swimming in your driveway. Just incredible
Whales sense bad weather and avoid the area
@@hardrockerguy4048 Whale I was unaware of that fact
@@hardrockerguy4048 huh, thats interesting, thanks for that fact of the day!
