Being Chased By A Flash Flood In Palo Duro Canyon
Вставка

- We came across this minor flash flood in Palo Duro Canyon. Do not try this. Normally flash floods are very dangerous; however, we had come across this surge farther upstream and knew that it was minor. Even with that we made sure that we had an escape route out of the channel at all times.
Video taken on my HTC Titan. We were only going out for a short hike and left all of the nice cameras at home. So I did what I could with what I had. Lesson learned: never go to PDC without your cameras!
This was the most adorable flash flood I've ever seen.
Not certain why this has so many dislikes.. technically it was chasing you downstream.. lol..
I found this video very relaxing.
thanks for sharing.
Aww!... Too short! I would have kept on watching this for hours!... Thanks for sharing!
Being that this flood is minor, it made for a beautiful and very relaxing video. I like it.
ah, palo duro canyon in my beautiful home state of texas, the canyon is such a beautiful place to see ! this was a really nice video, glad the flow wasnt much bigger than that or you might have gotten into trouble ! yep, really nice video !
I suppose you could call it a flash flood......if you were an ant.
John Kirkwood it was a flash flood . If you were to leave when the water was ahead of you because you could be caught if a flash wave came and hit you
Still fun to watch.
Surprised u made it out alive. Your a lucky man Hope your ok
A friendly & gentle " Flash Flood "
Pleasantly calm and relaxing for a flash flood.
not flash flood more like toilet flush
Fascinating. Educational to see. Thnks.
Mommy Nature was being chill that day. LOL
i love this video good job keep it up
Being chased by a flashflood...
Good heavens, you must have been terrified!
very hypnotic, nice video
RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!!!! Oh the humanity!!
wow!!!...that is wild!!....great informational video for people to be aware thanks for sharing!
I don't think you were quite chased lol
reminds me of my wife when she had the pebble dash trots
And you just turned 10
I fucking knew the comments would be people complaining about the video! Guys admit it, we'd all say to our friends that we got chased by a "dangerous" flash flood! Hell I know if I was still a kid and I saw that I'd make a game out of it turning it into something like tag!
smoothest cameraman ever?
Nice calming video. I enjoyed it.
Are you using some sort of stabilization?
Yes, I used the UA-cam editor and selected the stabilized option.
+Bary Nusz I was impressed by your smooth camera work - at times I thought you were using a drone, then I noticed footprints in the mud.
wow Bary! Very cool but it would be fun to see something like that channel full and really rushing-does it do that??? If at all...often?
i dont know how i had selected this vid rather than thousand others vid
could watch that for hours
A flash flood should be defined as something more than this. Like, "a surge of water at least 12 inches deep, moving at least 10 mph". People may get the idea from videos like this, that flash floods are not that big a deal.
I've never seen a flood so flash. Good night sweet prince. ripipip
0:53 wow your lucky that barrier really saved you.
I love how every one is an expert and no one else can do what they have capture on camera. "Do not try this"...only I can do this!!!
so interesting
somebody emptying a bucket or what
ive never seen a flash flood that close
What's with all the lens focusing? I feel like I'm at the optometrist. Nice vid, btw!
Yep, it fills up fast. Watch the video "Palo Duro Canyon Flash Flooding August 14, 2012". It went from 0 to 6 feet in less than 10 minutes.
Terrorized sloth narrowly escapes certain doom after almost being chased by a single feather, aloft and floating though backed with the full force of a gentle morning breeze pushed ever slightly toward that general direction...
Can you really be chased by a flash flood?
Your more in the way of a flash flood.
The irony in you using you're on the right context for your user name but then completely fucking it up with a comment.....
Smelly Nelly Thank GooglePlus for that "You're".
top ten scariest moments caught on camera
Flash trickle. Still, had to see all of it.strangely mesmorising
Seriously dangerous
Oh my goodness, I was so scared! That water must have been going 2 mph or maybe even 3 and I could hardly keep up! At one point I had fallen and couldn't get up and thought this was it! My life just flashed before my eyes and I suddenly realized that i would get wet!
It was a close call for our fat dachshund. She was barely able to stay ahead of the water. The total time we preceded the flow was about 45 minutes. That was a long fast walk for her.
I didn't think you were going to make it.
That was cool
It's a great video. I've always wanted to do one like this, but the shaking has made it not worthwhile.
What are you 6 inches tall?
has this been sped up?
flash flood for insects
Thats a lot of chocolate milk
Weren't You scared? :-D
I used the UA-cam video stabilizer. I think that along with the cell phone autofocus gave it that weird look. However, the result was much improved over what I started out with.

The infamous Snail Flood of 2012. Killed dozens when they nodded out waiting for it to go by and drowned in 2 inches of mud.
Where did that water come from we were in a drought when you posted it.
It was a sunny day (like most other days), however there were showers just west of the park.
Handy work from the garden hose?
Don't knock your Titan. It did better than my Samsung Note 3 would've done. How did you get the vid to be so steady?
mtshell I used the UA-cam editor and selected the stabilized option. It works really good in many cases.
Trickle flood???
Did everyone escape in time!
I don't think so!!!! I know I didn't!! :(
howd u get the video so still?
Wow, barley made it out with your life.
Did you need to break into a light stroll during that chase?
I used the UA-cam video stabilizer. I was amazed with the results. This video was taken with a cell phone while walking backwards. There are a couple of places where the video gets distorted momentarily, but overall it improved the quality of the video.
I don't think "chased" is the right word...lol
I know so eventful how did you survive?!
Not sure if
Camera moving smoothly
Or toy helicopter with camera
Run Forest Run!
What a beautiful place! I'd love to sit by a fire there for a few hours.
"CHASED"??.. didn't look like it was in a hurry to "catch"you. I'm sure you probably meant well, but with that intro and that end result, you really should be embarrassed to upload this.. next time just say it's a nice video (which it is) of a small current of semi-rapid flow stream water and let it go at that. You're quite welcome.
you're just jealous becuase they made like $50+ off of this video.
flash trickle In progress!
aww, it's a little bobby flood!
Some kid's dam must've colapsed or somethin
That's cool watching the water like that... but um... I've taken more violent showers... so perhaps "flash flood" is a touch out of perspective... maybe Trickle Tickle... Slow Flow... Puddle Jumper... something like that would be more appropriate. I've been in a gorge during a flash flood, and my uncle almost died from one in the same gorge.. they're scary, dangerous and nothing to be trifled with. We were fortunate and heard the echo about two minutes before the water started rising.. got up about 12 feet on the bank with little time to spare. It had poured for a few minutes about 20 miles upstream, and we didn't know it... didn't take long to figure it out though. The water only rose maybe 3 feet, but the current was vicious for a few minutes before it calmed down. Easily could have been deadly. So your video is cute and all, but far from what the title says my friend.
Sorry about your Uncle.
Quick! Somebody build an ark and grab 2 of each animal!
Where the coffe from the heavens comes from
So where's the big flood part
that's got to be cgi, those waves are too big.. :|
How about changing the title to watching a ditch fill slowly.
I used the UA-cam video stabilizer.
What was that awful click click, clicking, it ruined a good watch !
Where did you hear the clicking?
all the way through at varying intervals
Likely came from Lake Tanglewood releasing water.
Actually it came from a heavy rain storm just W of the park. The main stream had been dry for several months before and we had just finished a short hike. On our way out we encountered water over water crossing # 5 but water crossing #4 was dry. Considering 4 is just upstream of 5 we thought that was odd. We hiked around and found that the side stream from Capital Peak was the source. The water was 2-3 feet deep and very fast in that smaller stream. So we went back to water crossing #6, which was still dry, and started hiking upstream to find the front of the flash flood. We actually weren't sure how fast this thing was coming at us, but we were confident that we could climb out fast enough in a worst case scenario. As it ended up, the speed was quite slow in the much wider main stream.
That was me i pissed upstream
RUN!!!!!
Very pretty.
U should of added the song dud dud dud dud dud RUN DUN DUN would dat be good?
lol when i seen chased by flash flood

Mentorn Media are really interested in featuring this footage in one of our shows! hmiller@mentorn.tv contact me if you are interested! Thanks, Hannah
click bait
Really nigga where it at thooooo😡😡😡😡
Uhhh why so angry? And the racist comment
+Smelly Nelly The use of 'nigga' is not racist as used but a slang term
+KB in MD Last Its not slang. If a white guy walked up to a black man and said "nigga" he would take offense and probably punch him. Its racist and insulting.
+Donna Gilhousen Opinions vary. My male step kids are caucasian. In conversation with their male black friends call each other 'nigga' all of the time. Black to white or white to black.
KB in MD Last Yeah and my son is black and if a white guy friend or not said that he would drop his ass in a heartbeat.
Way to dangres u could of got you toes wet
lame
