- I met these farmers today trying to find a route to their farm. It was the first time in nearly 2 weeks they had been able to drive close enough to see their farm, and see that most of it was starting to emerge from the flood water. Their attempt to reach the farm is filmed in this video.

Never mind the drone.......that's incredible driving. A whole new meaning of "knowing my neighborhood like the back of my hand"
Incredible footage! Be safe.

@@ManJO601 that’s right. I’d like to see them try to blame this on global warming 🤣🤣🤣
I still watch this 2½ years later and still get misty eyed. It was so horrible to go through.
Good driving, man!
Oh my goodness now you got a backup? somebody's got to have a boat. If you have to move possessions back a blow-up bed works really well that's pretty calm water
Great drone work
This is starting to look like a clip from one of those apocalyptic movies. It is definitely, unnerving not knowing what is under those waters and how deep is the water⁉️⁉️ If the Covi didn't drive me nuts yet, this situation would if I was right there ⁉️⁉️😱😱😱

@@ManJO601 what do you expect to happen when you drain a lake the size of vancouver and only rely on a pump system to keep the water at bay. And then the glorious idea to build a community in it, absolute genius idea. Now its gonna cost us billions to repair and that land is going to be FUCKED for years. Dont expect any crops to be grown there for a long time.
Hello..great flying, great driving…
I wish all the people in BC and WA the best for the days to come…
Stay safe, stay warm…
Great filming. I can only imagine how scary and heart breaking this is for the farmers. I pray for them all!!
That's crazy, if you hit a washout or get hung up on hidden debris that drone can't fly you out. Looks like a long walk through an icy cess pool if you got stuck out there. I'd probably do the same thing though if it was my farm under water. I hope things dry out for you soon.
I stayed back and followed with drone.

How tragic. Excellent drone work though.
Glad your trying to help others .Nice drone .p.s now they are calling this flood a 500 year flood .Before the old saying was 100 year flood 🙏thank you for sharing
Wow, very scary not knowing where the road is.
...................follow the telegraph poles...................

And i get mad at my hubby gir driving through big puddles... this is crazy! It's safe to say that person driving knows that road very well and so did the copilot. I don't know what i would do in their situation. A 500 year flood is not something that happens and i would feel desperate. I'm glad they tried and the drone got footage. I'm from WA and we too are getting all these atmospheric rivers, one after another. It was 70 degrees in Nov/Dec. I can't believe this weather. It used to be called the pineapple Express weather because all the warm moisture came from Hawaii. We get it every year but this one is very bad. I hope all are ok. Stay safe.
Love the drone footage and music! Praying for the folks of BC ❤️
stop praying it didn't work in the first place
Thank you, from Victoria BC
@@captaindoeverything How do you know?
@@tilu3303 Because it flooded big time. Cannot counter nature, not even God.
I felt like crying. So many losing their homes etc.🤎🙏🙏
This is why lift kits were invented...
So sorry for you all,that are having to experience something like this.
"DO STAY SAFE OUT THERE"

It's already raining again & water levels are rising!!
all I can say is wow...be safe safe and God Bless you's...
Awesome way to wash all the Alberta road salt off truck!!
i feel for you
This just breaks my heart for you and the family. And don’t ever do that again!
Hahaha this was awesome. Great shots man
JUST WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the fun only begins
At this point All crops are dead and the soil is contained
I Really feel for the farmers
So sad 😥 I remember when it flooded back in 1988 😥
Stay safe . Nothing is more important than life.
For some people, getting footage of a disaster is worth the risk.
@@deadringer2349 By drone on a sunny day?
That better be a Hummer that floats on water.
Great work indeed! This is scary , sad at the same time. Keep safe

That is so hard on seals and bearings on the motor mixing in the sandy silty water. You will know why when they start leaking and squealing later down the road.
it’s a GMC ! built for life and it’s adventures. 💪🏻
Cmon Man the bearings are plastic now..
sad to see. wish you all well from Toronto
I am impressed by the drivers expert backup job when he couldn't see the road and few markers of hay & the pole...wow. Bwetting that won't be repeated; very close to swimming out.
Make sure water didn't get into the diff. had it happen to me after some silly water shenanigans XD
Lol.
Good memories I am sure.
Stay strong BC., the community is behind you.!
All of Canada is standing with you Beautiful British Columbia ,, will feel your sorrow, stay strong.

Do you need a drone license to fly one like in the USA? Was it difficult or expensive? When did you do your test?
Its, realy heartbreaking god safe the farmers.
Door open to try and see the edge?… but also a good idea incase you go into a ditch or washed out section. Once water gets over the doors you will not open them until the water inside equalizes with the outside.
Is the emergency drone ban still in effect there? They’d cleared the airspace for rescue operations. What are you flying?
Got to get those UA-cam views 🤣
😱😳😱 OMG.....I have lived it in 1975 Flood Yarrow was flooded The Sumas Prairie ....Canadian Army came to Rescue us with Boats after I 📸 flashed S.O.S..I was 12 Years old at the Time ....Check ✔️ The 1975 December Edition of Chilliwack Progress..Us Children were on Front Page of Newspaper...
Wow!!!
if you encounter any farmers and locals, please tell them we are constantly thinking of them, sending prayers and love their way. It's one hell of a mess, and this does not begin to describe their loves of rebuilding and recovery. The province and federal governments need to step yup to the plate, goodness knows they've spent enough on making sure a lot of people don't have to work, now they need to recognize people with real business interests and investments need the help. These folks can't sit around collecting CERB money.
This is in Chillywack is it..? Canada..?
Yes, this is in northwest Canada.
@@user-mp2tk3pw6j Southwest, literally 2 minutes from the US border.
That’s right.
will a GPS show you the road?
Yes, but you need to still watch the pavement. The passenger was watching the pavement for depth, but also to watch for any possible sink holes.
Roll down the windows instead of opening the door?
quite so......................
Better judgment of water height with the door open then with your head hanging out of a rolled down window looking down. I do that with the driver's door open sometimes backing up because objects in the mirror are closer than they appear.
The door was open as a safetly measure as well. Had he missed the road and gone into the irrigation ditch (usually 6' deep), at least the door would have been open for a quick escape. Back when I drove the ice roads in northern MB we did that all the time if we were on a body of water (frozen of course).
Too late to install a depth sounder.
Got a fly fishing rod? Stay safe hope everyone is ok
What I meant to see, I can understand he might have home down the lane, but it is all underwater . Driving in this situation can be extremely extremely difficult. I know he was emotional.
Please tell me where the truck stopped ... the blue tote on the left is mine and it floated away. Once the water recedes and we can get into the area I will go and get it. It looks like Interprovincial Hwy and Campbell Rd and that's the reason he backed up from there ... the city was repairing the bridge when the floods came and there is no road / bridge where the road narrows.
Ya it’s Campbell Road.
@@wandervisionYT Thank you very much. You just saved me $500 to buy a replacement.
I wouldn’t want to be backing up with no markers to make sure you’re going straight. A little off course could be a disaster
OMG! I feel for you too
Fun times. I had my seadoo out having a blast
Waite a minute there are fences under that water.🤔
Best of luck with that Darwin Award Ambition 🥦
This guy is crazy, he is driving into nowhere.he is taking extreme risk.
Was this worth the risk?
No that’s why they stopped. I was glad when they did.
One doesn't buy a Hundred Thousand dollar truck if it cant drive thru a couple feet of water..And there was no risk they had there masks on..
That journey takes big BALLS . A fishing boat would be a better choice
Driver just proved he should NOT attempted to navigate a flooded road. At first if you can see the lane lines, I would say ok, try it. But if not, then don't. Water is too deep.

That’s my brother in law and he knew what he was doing. He backed out as soon as it was dangerous.
Lucky the truck did not stall. would have been a dam cold walk to dry land ...
Feel for everyone....😖😖😖😖😖
Why not use a boat??
Good question.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Time to get a jet boat.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Scary
Ya need a boat there, not a truck. Flooding is horrible. We have been flooded out many times. Government won’t let us dredge the decades of build up. We are on our own.
All of those poor animals that couldn’t get out...so sad
NUTS
Was dumb move and then say....dont do this. Someone will and need to be rescued
I stayed on dry land while the farmer drove his truck down the road. He realized his mistake and came back.
😳😥😥😥😥
This is a great what no to do video. At any moment this truck could hit an unseen propane or gas tank, concrete blocks, exposed gas lines....
This area is mostly traversed by residents who either have their homes under water or have their farm animals to save.
Good chance this person knows where he is, which gives him this kind of confidence.
Risky, but I am sure that was considered.
Not everyone is a complete vagina you know :D
I live in the area still "safe", about 5 mins up higher in the city.
They had the drone to fly over it first. They could see what was in the water, but the drone can't give good details of exactly how deep - 1 ft to 2 ½ ft. No gas lines out there. It's a plain agricultural road. What they were in danger of was the ditch and using the truck.
Life happens - it's not all youtube in an easychair. Sometimes stuff has to be done. If my life savings was wrapped up in a flooded farm I'd be prepared to take the same risks.
Leave up to the locals with the jacked up 4x4s and those city folks with there Import little cars stay home so the locals don't have to risk there lives to get them out .🤗
Absolutely horrific- next on the Menu- #planetaryhospice #humanhabitloss #managedretreat #theuninhabitalearth- #yougetwhatyouvotefor. We are the extinction level events. 🦖☄⌛
How incredibly risky! Get a canoe...
Why risk your life.. bro. Stay safe do not attempt such a thing. See how miserable a human being before almighty God. Let's pray in almighty God to have pity upon us little creatures. Save us from such calamities. Aameen.
Just remember man was put on earth to be the stewarts of the land 🙏🤔
Oh lay off with your religious jargon. Was a nice video by a person with some balls, refreshing in this world of men with their hair done like their moms
You put yourself in danger
Appropriate warning at the beginning obviously ignored by the farmers. What would they have accomplished if they had reached the property ? You could have given them a view of it with the drone camera...in safety.
Don't worry they were safe..They had there masks on..
So sad.
Slowly turning into a clickbait channel. I am not trying to troll but I feel like you're slowly going down the slippery slope of the youtuber going over the edge to generate more content and views while taking risk of become (yet another rescue case)
Worth mentioning that the water you're driving in is loaded with all the manure and other stuff from all the barns that got flooded. Stay safe, just drone around without wheeling around would just do as good for content.
Thanks for your concern and comment. Definitely not going to be a rescue case. I’ll stay on the safe side.
Any requests of scenes you’d like to see instead? I’m trying to show people what it’s like here right now, while staying safe and respectful. Would like to try and interview some farmers about their next steps and opinions on why the flooding was so bad?
LOL passenger "hang'n out tha side of his best friend's ride" ready to bail at first sign of a deep hole. close the door! & roll down the window if you are scared. can't see the mirror like that, & they are kind'a useful when reversing
The friend is watching the pavement to help judge depth changes and make sure they haven't neared the ditch. The driver needed someone to do that. It's too hard to juggle it all yourself.
should not be out there now more will do this this is dangerous
@ BC this FLOODING has been
going on since 1948 We will keep praying you wakeup !
So sad but part of the end times scenario. The rapture and the 7year Tribulation are right around the corner. Please give your life to JESUS CHRIST today!!! Read biblical end times prophecy, listen to Dr. Ron Rhodes on end times chronology.
@@user-mp2tk3pw6jChristians don't steal we always pay our taxes on time and this is about salvation: Everyone needs JESUS CHRIST - there is no forgiveness of sins without JESUS .
@@user-mp2tk3pw6j Hi, that's absolutely horrible but they were roman catholics!!! The Vatican is the whore of Babylon, see Revelation 17 and 18, they have nothing to do with biblical Christianity! You always have to differentiate between Christians in name only and born again Christians. Please get saved and give your life to JESUS CHRIST today!!! GOD bless you and your loved ones, Xander.
Scary
