I narrated some drone footage I took of Matlacha FL before Hurricane Ian and shortly after the storm passed, then again 30 days later.

I took a flight out to see if my friend's office was still standing. It was but the water flooded the whole island.

Thank you for that many do not know the history of the white boot society of Pine Island...I knew at one time during the 90s it was deem a historical as site and resident were not allow to paint their home anything other than white ...so much of the historic value of Matlacha has give way to tourist dollars like it was Key West and lost is the importance of the people that built it so thank you for video !
If you’re gonna make a video with a drone in 2022.. at least buy something that’s better than a $20 Chinese piece of crap!
Next on the Menu: American Human Habitat Loss, Managed Retreat, Planetary Hospice. 🌊
Keep doing stupid shit people, those were all the dead bodies of people who the government didn't report...I'm a first responder and I know first hand that there were hundreds of deaths in Lee county
we love it here !....NOT any more. So many homes missing...will anybody be cited for littering ?
How idiotic to rebuild on what should never have been built on in the first place.
Of course I mourn the loss of people's homes (and hope they weren't in them when they went!), but surely rebuilding in the same place isn't the best of ideas...
Thanks for making this video. I used to fish here quite often for snook, reds and tarpon as a boy. I pray for its wonderful return to greatness.
Constructing flimsy structures in a known flooding, storm and hurricane zone can only ever have one outcome!
Yeah maybe it's time to give back there's not enough sand to rebuild this false life the wood is being burnt up like crazy they're hauling wood out of your busted up Florida like crazy I've been passing trucks all day long they're taking a piece out of America piece by piece they're destroying this world haven't you heard him say they're going to rebuild some stuff no they're not Jesus is going to come back this world is being systematically destroyed and maybe it's about time for you take some of the pressure off of our backs that realize what time of day it is on this planet this busted up filthy dreamer time is over sorry dude nothing personal to you unless you're a bad guy these people thrived off the backs of the Brokenhearted and squatters didn't lose their homes they lost their jobs most of them didn't have homes you didn't go out and buy a home like you do today if they didn't give the sons of b****** away nobody would have a home because right now I'm a squatter and I think you've had you guys's turn out there for all you tourists now get your ass back in your house cuz I need a place to live and I'll gladly go out and have free food and a free roof over my head oh I'm sorry that's the illegals moving in you just can't win and USA the now glorious United scam artist with an IQ of a Nestlé quick
We gotta stop bailing fools out. If it is next to water, it probably floods. No more gravy for you. We are in global warming and cant afford to keep rebuilding the same infrastructure over and over again. These people are not even thankful or kind to their benefactors. Yeah it is nice if you like Iguanas and snakes and rain but it aint for me.
The governor of Florida did in three days what our governor in Louisiana hasn’t done yet in three years!!!!! Our 210 bridge (a vital link along I-10 if the 70 year old I -10 bridge fails) was refurbished to new condition just before Hurricane Laura. The same thing happened to us as did in Ft. Myers (150 mph winds as storm came ashore). Our bridge is still a shambles with torn off light poles there TODAY! You live in the USA. We do not!😕🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
However there are more stronger hurracaines to come. Only the wise man build his house on the rock. NOT on sand.
A famous Guy once said, Build your house on a rock.
He is a wise deity indeed ✝️
Restore the peoples Heritage ban coastal builders
There is almost certainly going to be more storms. Other parts of the US and world are getting hit with global climate change disasters. Who would be silly enough to think FL will not get hit again? I move here after Ian. The Keys were torn to shreds, Cape Coral had evidence of damage for years. Now this. 😢
They will waste 10's of millions rebuilding, and then another hurricane will come through, and so on, and so on. It's not meant to be lived on. Stop whining and bitching when mother nature takes it back. Also, how many days notice did these people have to evacuate?
Who gives a shit?
You spelled *Metallica* incorrectly.
Sorry zero sympathy look were they build those and fully knowing 100% that this not could but will 100% happen. now they will get insurance money build in the same exact place while run up everyone insurance cost that dont even live there.
Building houses on sandbars incredibly stupid Rebuilding on sandbars insane "My friend with the Remax Office" hahaha
What’s funny? Pretty warped sense of humor…
Interesting story. Nice footage!
It should not be rebuilt. And if rebuilt then let the owners pay the full cost not the us government .
There should be a no rebuild law for the barrier islands. It cost tax payers way to much money and those islands should be used for what they have been used for for thousands of years. Slowing the storm surge.
It looked like mother nature cleaned that mess up. Hopefully ignorant folks don't rebuild there
Sorry to say, sea level rise and hurricanes are tougher!
These people was asking for trouble building a house on a man made island
Very similar to the creation of the peninsula at Newport Beach in southern California.
“Tough n resilient group” .. .. ? .. no a fuccin stupid group .. sure rebuild assholes it will “never” happen again .. .. duh
Hard to have any sympathy for people living in Floriduh! Hopefully mother nature reclaims the whole state!

It is your choice to live elsewhere. No one is mocking your choice or wishing your area harm.
And here we see why nobody should be developing in places like this. They certainly shouldn’t be allowed to rebuild only relocate. All the rest of Florida ends up paying for these few who didn’t have the common sense to live where this kind of destruction is expected. This video does more to explain the insurance crisis in Florida that is screwing responsible homeowners to cover loses from insuring folks that live in dangerous areas like this. I will morn the loss of life but stop asking the rest of us to get priced out of our insurance for people that build homes in places like barrier islands.
Our insurance is high because of ridiculous tort laws and passing the legal fees of hyper inflated claims and lawsuits to the insurance companies. People have been living and thriving on islands and coastal plains for all of human history. The answer is modernizing building codes. The Netherlands and Virginia Beach are testimonies to proper land management in flood planes. Those that cannot afford to rebuild to modern codes will be bought out by those that can, and the area will thrive.
@@terrymcgraw I have lived in the Netherlands and I dont think you can use the Netherlands as a example though, you can't build a dike around all of Florida. Very few people live on the ocean coast in the Netherlands. Not saying they can't live in Florida but living on the beach or that close to the beach is not right, they need to let the mangroves and other coastal plant life come back.
Same could be said for California. Massive fires are seasonal and expected. Followed by mud slides after a light rain shower. Throw in a few earthquakes for good measure. They should move. They're causing my insurance rates to go up.
@@RHoDS713 I am not saying people can't live in Florida though or visit the beach, I am saying that they shouldn't live on the beach. A majority of the damage done was done by the water brought in from the hurricane and it being slapped onto homes and cars destroying them. There should be mangroves and other plant life along the beach that could prevent this from happening, however it would mean no longer having houses and other buildings on the beach.
Why rebuild in such a place. Wouldn’t this likely happen again down the road. And how do you expect to get insured again?
Thank You for taking you time to show the US what happened there. So many places I wanted to visit in Florida really got beat up this year. SMH
Thanks for taking the time to do this video. My Mom's favorite place 💕
very interesting footage ! i subscribe
As the swamps once again become inundated with water? The canals of which the crocodiles and alligators kept clear were all slaughtered this place is unlivable for man nor beast because of the threat of weather .but the stupid banks just keep on dumping more bad money .cracks me up .
So sad 😢
Dad lived on Pine Island for 7 years back in 2010, While now living in Cape Coral now. Driving though here was one of my favorite things to this day. I was at Barts not even 2 weeks before the storm visiting, just o be there. Sad to see everything.
It was our favorite spot to take visitors. Such a quaint happy place. We sadly never got a chance to eat at Bert's. We heard the food was good there. Our favorite spot to hit was Blue Dog Cafe. I hope they can build it back better and stronger to be as resilient as the folks who live there.
@@JJWM1025 Ate at the Blue Dog today. It was as good as ever.
Great story and narration
Excellent work, thank you for sharing
Let the owners pay for their own rebuilding,only a dummy would build there.
That whole area just seems like a bad place to build homes in retrospect -- considering Florida is prone to flooding/storms.
For the once in a 100 year storm, the rest of Florida life is great. Glad and proud we live here. It suits us like someone into skiing is suited up north.
California is subject to earthquakes, mud slides, and fires. Oklahoma gets earthquakes, floods and tornadoes. Arizona gets earthquakes, fires, and flash floods. The Midwest and East Coast States get tornados and crippling snowstorms. My point is no matter where you live there’s a potential natural disaster that can hit you at any time.
@Susel Exactly…Obama, Kerry, and Biden all have homes on the water. If most people could afford it, I think the majority of people would like to live on, or near the ocean, by a lake, or along a peaceful river.
@@janicesullivan8942 No matter where you live? The US is not the entire world. There do exist other countries, and many of them never have any natural disasters.
It's a stupid place to build, and these homes are all eventually going underwater. Let's just hope taxpayers don't get stuck with the bill again.
If you have ever been to Pine Island Sanibel Matlache bokeelia Charlotte Harbor you know about that that's stink, it's red tide. I used to work on Sanibel I couldn't tell you how many times the drive over the causeway smelled like stinky pussy
Glad you did this drone recording
Lots of homes on slabs instead of raised and lots of trailers it looks like. Why?!
"A tough and resilient breed"...and gluttons for punishment. Can y'all please stop driving up insurance across the country. Either stop building on the water or build it elevated and strong enough to survive a hurricane, i.e. poured concrete. You didn't use an external mic. Lots of sound reverberation. I could not understand some of your sentences as you tend to trail off.
Research, research, research. It is not the building in Florida, it is the laws surrounding insurance and lawyers, and inflated claims.
I wish I could give a flying f*#k about homes at zero sea level. Choices, the ones they make cost me money. Zero aid, zero attempts to rescue.
They didn’t cost you anything. You are just an asshole.
@@blaster-zy7xx and damn proud of it!
@@rideshareog Obviously a Trump supporter, and proud of that too.
@@blaster-zy7xx you couldn't be more wrong I damn sure not a Biden supporter either. There's a reason the lexicon has the word Floridaman.
@@rideshareog Floridaman announces run for presidency.
Sad
Ya live on the water,ya roll the dice. Gov DeSantis did a hell of a job reopening this passage and Sanibel causeway
Yes, he got billions in the same federal funding he voted against.
