Yes. Their response was a little slow at first but then once they finally decided to not be killed they were quite competent at avoiding death.

I dropped a log torpedo this morning myself.

@@dano1307 ew what the hell lmfao

@@msruag hahaha dont even remember saying that. Probably true tho.

@@dano1307 lmfao i feel you lol

Yes just imagin if it had pulled out 10 mins before, then this video would be less exciting :D :D :D

I imagine the heartrate was near critical for those two on the other boat.

Quê cê falô?

that's what she said

How many of us wouldn't have put ourselves in that position? A little fool foolhardy , I think .

Standing there waiting for it is not reacting fast. More like once they started moving they had no choice but to move fast.

@@JaySparky At least they got out - that means that they reacted fast enough!

@@TAKIDANI Pfft, pure speculation, reflecting nothing more than bias and baseless judgmentalism. Both you and Jay Souza (the nitwit who is among those replying to your comment) _haven't the least clue_ as to their perspective or circumstances that put them in that position. *What we **_can_** observe, what we can **_know,_** is that, unlike the uninvolved cameraman, is that the two women saved themselves by immediate and decisive action.*

They had plenty of time to get away, they knew what was happening, don't dramatize it...

Gregg Anthony right.....I was like that’s a special kinda stupid when you hear sounds like that coming from the forest!

That's what I was thinking there is someone on the shore, and he says kill the engine with that noise coming I would have been like. Hollering GET OF THE SHORE & LET'S GET OUT OF HERE NOW!!!###

Giving skipper orders like that the whole time, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the last time he was invited out lmao

A million tonnes of debris coming your way and yeah, lets kill the engine and see what happens...

Truth

You’re joking about steady camera, right?

He is …..I’m sure 😂😂😂😂…..or maybe he was pissed ,,

And they missed the action with the main flow and the other boat escaping by the skin of it's teeth.........

Lmao!

Or my ex, 'cause she smelled food!

You need to edit that in.

Basically it's a sound you don't want to be close to

Please someone make a cut of this with Roberta crashing thru the trees/epic roar

they are news guys and wanted to capture the sound

Because they obviously aren’t pansies..

@@Gadmeer So they will be dead in the water but at least they will have great sound?

@@basinstreetdesign5206 Pop culture of posting a video or picture on social media to get views makes a lot of people stupid. There are so many people and animals getting hurt while the person behind the camera just takes footage when they could be helping or getting out of harms way. It’s really disgusting.

Well to get that Darwin award mention.....

Nothing would happen if they touched a boat, they're just floating, they're not being launched.

@@SirKolassThey're not "just floating," and they absolutely _are_ being "launched" -- rather violently -- by buoyancy...and if one of them had contacted the boat, it could've caused anything from a minor cosmetic scratch, to a catastrophic wreck.

They just mushroom-stamped mother nature directly on the forehead.

Wow like literally like. Literally like I feel literally like literally.

Looked close!

Nev lol

1:01

Wichito You don't ask for much do you? Maybe a dear in the middle of the mudslide can provide some footage from his cell phone.

@@Hay-tn6hz *deer

I doubt they had a chance to film or even thought about it.

Scary!!!!! Terrifyingly so!!!! Imagine hearing something smack the bottom of your boat so you look in the water and these giant logs are headed right for the bottom of your boat, from the murky depths, with so much force...that's the kind of stuff that gives me nightmares.

Make up your mind

That caught my attention too. My first thought was that those people weren't out of danger. What we couldn't see going on underwater was the frightening part.

Surfer Franco 🤣🤣🤣

Lmao

Ha ha haaaa

A gerbal was up my butt

Camera man bro just tell em 5 minutes even though it was 35

Why?

Prolly all the hidey spots for fish the logs made good breeding ground I think

Will make w/e lol

Yup, snag city for fishing lines lol!!

Joseph Harrigan Only a true fisherman would know that! My son would have said the exact same thing!

Thanks for clarifying the date on this and the liquefaction is no joke

@6 6 Lol...

Yeah, that was the dumbest thing I've heard in a long time...

I think at that stage they knew they were out of harm's way with the bigger stuff, and wanted to kill the engine to prevent smaller debris hitting the spinning props. More damage would happen to them if were spinning, making a bad situation worse.

Val, buddy, you DO know that a boat's motor running does not necessarily equate to a spinning propeller? Geez...

I heard the trees yelling it just fine...

FREE TIMBEEER !

I say it

But they use the word "epic" a lot. The only ones who refer to this mud slide as EPIC were the ants who lived on the bank. Of course they say it in ant language which is mostly silence.

Settles the whole "If a tree falls in the forest does it make a sound" argument though.

Very slowly real quick

It's things like this that are killing our world, these events are not natural they're caused from over harvesting of our forest lands. They've been raping the BC forests for years and this is the end result!

@@billyboy1093 mudslides like this tend to result from heavy rain after large fires when lightening strikes cause crown fires. While increasing over past 30 years, they have ALWAYS been part of temperate rain forests. Hydrophobic soils with no organic matter . Clear cuts leave slash anymore as erosion control. It's not black and white clear cut as it might seem to a casual observation

@@billyboy1093 don’t worry man, the earth will balance itself out. If you live in a house made of wood or drive a car that uses gas or electric then you are raping the world as well. A little bit of rape is still rape.

@@sixfigureskibum Yes, but that is not always the answer. It does happen when there has been prolonged or heavy rains where the soil has been completely saturated. The weight of the trees and liquifying soil can no longer hold things together and gravity helps pull everything downhill. One form of natural erosion.

Ikr!!!!!!!

Seemed like a ood duy....

That guy was half smart though. Look and listen and know where it’s coming from so you know where to go. The lot of y’all would’ve probably ran straight into danger

I would of took a wild guess it was coming from the trees Infront of them and not the open lake to either side and behind them

Why? Smart move. Youre located at the middle of the lake. I would want to know where the danger is coming from before blindly moving anywhere. What would you have done. Gunned it link e a fool blindly running into possible danger? Young n dumb son.... Old n smart, that's the difference.

@@johnschumer2174 old and smart eh? Yet you think they are in the middle of the lake when they aren't they are by one shoreline as people who know which lake it is have already said in other comments. Old and smart lol more like old and dumb firstly presuming I'm young because you have a different opinion which differs from facts, and secondly not having a clue about the situation yet acting like you know everything

@UCInUktsWBsprokCF7-xUmXw he's sat on the boat with them you muppet clearly 100- 150 meters from the shoreline, the other side of the lake is miles away the video clearly shows that lol old blind and senile more like. Want to carry on arguing against clear facts which every can see in the video? Lol man you're stupid

They had been on shore a few minutes earlier.

But, 5 minutes ago...5 minutes ago, we were there, sez Richard Gere. LMAO

Great comment! Otis would approve.

That's not how the words to that song goes.

My generation!

Is that why the mudslide happened? I was wondering how such a lush screen forest have a mudslide... And I was wondering where all those logs were from

@@SandraMartinez-tl3ih Because trees have roots - they retain the soil. Cut down too many trees, years later the roots will start rotting away and that when you may run into problems.

In Haïti and Madagascar people did same way against forest till it have raised no more.silly humains...

@@djcrownvic7017 But wait, doesn't forests need to be regularly maintained in order to minimize the amount of mudslides etc? Of course complete logging isn't advisable either but I don't think you're supposed to leave it to its own devices either if you want the area to be safe for humans.

@@TurtleGamers1 Of course, but if you do too much cutting it's not good either.

Totally agree !! I was going to comment “ I love the sound it makes “

Glad you enjoyed it. 4 people died in that landslide a day or 2 earlier.

That part was CGI

4 people died at that spot a day or 2 earlier as their homes were flattened.

ben Dunn thats what I thought. I came down the comments looking for yours.

Good place for firewood, too!

LOL!

Yup! 4 dead if I remember correctly, just a little south of my home.

I did some reading. on this. The people who passed away were a German woman and a father and his 2 daughters. Mother nature unleashing in beautiful Kootenay Lake.

absolutley! Then you see the timber industry shills... deny deny, and suport the lies... so tragic on many many levels.

Trees are just like any other plant: harvest one, plant another. No problem.

animaniac1 5 minutes ago. 5.

By Buried alive

Actually that's what happens when irresponsible logging takes place

Nature didn't do that. This is what happens when the greed at all costs timber industry clear cuts a forest. They leave a ring of trees near the water so that the public doesn't see their eyesore. They then plant a tree farm. There is no undergrowth, or old trees to hold onto the soil. Notice the logs, not trees being washed in.. Greed is the enemy to all life on this planet,

BS! You can even see the logs washing into the water.. The parasitic timber industry leaves a ring of healthy forest, and then clear cuts where thier eyesore is less noticed.. There are no old trees with living roots, or lush undergrowth to absorb the water, or hold the soil together.. I am so tired of paid lying shills...

It's rare with a healthy forest. Undergrowth absorbs the water like a sponge, and healthy old tree's long roots holds the forest floor..

@@dwightstewart7181 yeah because perfectly sawed timbers are natural, get a life

Hello verified KZfaqr

'pranged' love it!

@@monstersaint Me too! 😁

Not what I would do, but this is what a journalist will do if a few minutes later they want to *be* the story.

陈天龙 all over the place because they are wondering if they need to run get away or stay ...unless u have been in the midst of a mudslide and filmed so perfect and beautifully u should probably shut up

陈天龙 they where too close to be prepared...it looked UNEXPECTED ..and congratulations to filming lots of stuff.. but I said if you have been near a mudslide ..that's different...bye..

陈天龙 man you are really an idiot. The were running from the mudslide.

pitthepig he doesn't believe it... he's never experienced shit like this ( he didn't say he did so I'm assuming ) but acts like these people should have been calm and collected even though they almost died

W S You people are the idiots. I never panic over a situation. I don't care what is happening. The only way to up the survival percentage in life is to never panic. Apparently none of you have read the hitchhikers guide. It clearly states rule number one. No matter what never never panic. I have always lived by that and I always keep my wits about me. It's not difficult to do. Second, these people sat there and listen to the rumble of the slide. watched and filmed as the trees were being dropped as it closed in. They should have been more than capable of handling the situation properly. Just because you guys are pansies. That doesn't mean the rest of the world is.
