Flood level information has been updated in the description of this video as of 9/30/2024. And yes, I made a mistake in the captions of this video showing 2025 as the year of these events and the date of 1895 for the French Broad River's highest flood event. These were mistakes, and the correct information is in the description above.
Because those things never, ever collapse. They are especially structurally sound in the midst of a massive flood with detritus slamming on to it. Things like, oh, massive oak trees.
💔 ❤️🩹 ♥️ We are TN Volunteers and so many are volunteering to help. I’m a grandma/great grandma and keep the babies for my daughter / grandchildren volunteer in Erwin. My granddaughter in the medical field has been spiritually impacted by what she’s seen. My grandson is a volunteer firefighter, EMT field and a works in a federal government ammunition plant as a firefighter, my granddaughter-in-law is a dispatcher. They are all helping on Erwin TN
People please do not do what these idiots did and park and stand on a flooded bridge. Water eats away the supporting banks underneath which causes bridges to collapse. This is how to lose your life. Do not do it please.
I work with structual engineers and write about bridges all over the world. You are exactly right. Rushing water washes away the banks and soil around the bridge columns. It's called scour. They are f'ing morons for getting anywhere near that bridge.
My Dad helped build the Nolichucky Dam. With all the pressure it has withstood, all those men that worked on it did an incredible job!!!! God gave them wisdom to build it strong enough to withstand all these years to high pressure.
5:19 so, is there still a TVA? I knew of it of course from the 30’s, 40’s. What is the large building beside the dam? With the 4 stacks on the roof? It is amazing the dams lasted this long, no one back then envisioned this type of flooding in the mtns. Those were some tough hombres who built our infrastructure back in the early 1900s. I do think though we need to look to the Romans’ for better concrete. Some of it in Italy still holding up after a couple thousand years. Comparatively, modern stuff is worthless.🫣
Dear Comment Section, If you’re gonna get on a bridge with the water touching the bottom of it while watching a house floating your way, we should probably just let nature run its course. Seriously, Darwin, Occam & Schrödinger
@@sheeplebeware9511 soooo what I’m saying is if we all keep our mouths shut the shallow end of the gene pool will drain itself….like stupid games/stupid prizes…mother nature flushes the toilet and thins the herd…
I'm in Tennessee born and raised this is the worst weather event of my lifetime . I've never seen anything like it much less the feelings and emotion that cones with it. People floating away so many wothout electric amd homeless now. So many gone forever now. Others had to watch as they were taken to safty seeing their beloved animals drown and noway to save them.
Elizabethton TN here. I'm 10 miles east of Elizabethton, 1/2 way up a mountain. Other than no electric and phone for a day, and a huge mature Walnut tree falling across my lawn, I'm fine, but Elizabethton and surrounding areas were hit hard. Houses floating down rivers, bridges collapsing, Interstate hwy 26 ripped apart, flooding in towns, some completely destroyed. Yeah, not good, but the communities are coming together to help each other. That's what Americans do in times of tragedy. We will rebuild, better than ever.
We are praying for everyone that was affected by the storms. God bless you all and I hope you get everything that you need quickly. Here in Alabama we know what it's like and it's no fun so we're praying
Amen great attitude butt when help doesn't come quick enough it can get scary I know I've been there. We are praying for quick responses to get everybody everything they need
Glad you all are high and dry. Having watched videos of bridges being swept away by raging flood waters, there is NO WAY I'd be parking on that bridge! I heard of one bridge that was so packed by sight seers that emergency vehicles could not get through.
Lots of idiots. The kind of idiots who are prevalent in social media today that put priority of the cell phone and the footage you capture on it above any kind of sane logic and life. Guaranteed, if the bridge collapsed and he went in the water he would do everything he could to save the cell phone first.
Bridge scour is the removal of streambed material caused by swiftly moving water from around bridge abutments or piers. Scour can become so deep that streambed material is removed from beneath the abutment or pier footings (known as undermining), compromising the integrity and stability of a bridge structure
@@Martin-l7hCode in East TN (an area prone to massive flooding which necessitated the TVA) requires extra deep pilings for bridge support which minimizes the effects of scour.
I like the guy who was standing in the way of the bridge filming, if it swung before collapsing. People who don't understand any physics principles are downright dangerous, not just IN danger.
I saw someone once in Yellowstone creeping up on a calf between the cow and bull bison, indian style, I asked the wife if she wanted to stick around to see a goring...
Yall have no idea the danger you were in on that bridge. Not only because it could have collapsed but because you would have no warning at all of a sudden onrush of oncoming water much higher than what you were seeing. With flooding like that, water can rise 2-4 feet in a minute...thats 2-8 feet in just 2 minutes. Enough to trap you on the bridge in 60 seconds and then sweep you away in 60 more.

Yup but that UA-cam fame outweighed the fear. $$ if they hadn't filmed it someone else probably would of. It's a wonder nobody tried to call the cops to go talk to these people. Safety first... No amount of money is worth risking one's life for
Everyone on that bridge put a lot of faith into it's construction, crazy that you're just hanging out on it with all that force from the water hitting it, not to mention the erosion going on under the water. Insane.
Yeah you can vidibly see the water is higher further up looks high enough to wash over meaning the bridge has serious drag forces on it damming the water slightly thats generaly the failure point of anything thats not a dam if nit much sooner
I have seen this 2 times in my life 1977 and now. I was 15 yrs old an 62 now . Both times i never thought I needed to be an a bridge in a situation like that.
Condolences from eastern Nepal. We had similarly catastrophic flooding on the same day. The scenes look eerily similar and we are on opposite sides of the world.
We’re on the Gulf Coast. One of the worse we’ve seen in Tampa Bay since we’ve been here nearly 16 yrs. Prayers for ALL and thank God for those who have survived. Glad y’all are good. Tks for sharing. 💜🙏🏻💜
Happy you all survived this terrible storm. ❤ My prayers go out to those who lost loved ones and their homes and their livelihoods. Praying for quicker restoration. 🙏🏼
No worries. Jesus controls the wind and waves. Right??? Good people were out helping others on Sunday. Dreamers were busy worshipping the god of the winds.
A guy stands perilously close to a crumbling bridge, the raging water threatening to sweep it away. Instead of moving to safety, he's too busy snapping selfies for Facebook. It’s unbelievable how some people prioritize likes over their own safety!
the problem is that insurance companies will increase rates due to this flooding, but this is not just rain flooding from a severe thunderstorm, this is hurricane storm flooding, which is a totally different animal in it's own right. companies and agencies like FEMA need to understand this
Yup insurance companies were on that bridge taking inventory. Hey there goes sams roof and isn’t that Mary’s jeep..hmmm.. seems to have some water damage we will have to lower the payout for that. 😂
FEMA is just “public insurance” funded by debt on all the future USA citizens through taxes and inflation. Stop building next to rivers at the bottom of hills or next to rising oceans. NO-ONE can keep paying for rebuilding in these areas. Climate change is REAL. OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE!
The fact that there are people out there from up northeast making fun of this shit is absolutely disgusting. It seems every time some state or specific zone of the US has life-threatening events occur and lives of men, women and children are needlessly lost, they find it 'funny' simply over political differences. I say it's about high time we just stop trying to coexist around folks like this, let alone much of the northeast, and that's coming from a Canadian stuck in NJ. People up here disgust me.
Glad you are ok, hope you didn't get much damage at your place. Sending Prayers for the Emergency Crews to have a safe and swift recovery for all those affected.
Happy to read that all is OK at the Kraemer homestead. I have friends in Hot Springs that had advised me of the high water on the Nolichucky River and French Broad, and I recalled that your property there in Greene County had Nolichucky River frontage.
I am calling that storm Hell-ene! Upper East TN saw too much damage. There were areas that got 33 inches of rain. Nice bear tracks! The 107 bridge is a great example why you don't stand on a bridge and watch the floodwaters!
Heartbreaking to where most of us podcasters aren't talking about it on our channels. Literally makes tears well up in my eyes watching some of these videos. Brave souls out there recording and keeping us all informed. Not all of us could do it and keep our composure.
I remember in '06 being on a really high bridge with raging flood waters going beneath. Was stuck in traffic on the bridge, and i saw trailers, houses, sheds, buses, and big trees floating on down. Makes you feel very small
Glad to hear from y’all. Been praying for you & all the animals on your place today & keeping an eye on both of your channels today. Stay safe & thank God you’re all okay!
Bear print! We had similar damage to your farm in Grainger county, loss of trees and power, but otherwise AOK. Let me know if you find a way we locals can help.
Glad you and Katie are safe. I currently live in Fl and while we had the high winds, we didn’t have the rains that TN and NC received. We’re currently searching for our TN home and am reminded of all the property search videos I watched of you and Katie when you start your journey. I’m hoping it doesn’t take as many!

Nathan it says, 2025 on the video. 😂 That. Ridge that collapsed is where I live. We go over that bridge many times. Greeneville and Greene County got hit hard as did New Port, Erwin, Asheville and all the surrounding areas.
What blows my mind the most in these videos is the raw energy in that river. The amount of physical momentum and weight in just a 1" slice of that river is staggering, let alone miles of it. Mother nature has got some crazy muscles.
Nate, thanks for your calm reporting of the flooding in your area, pointing out the details of how high the water was. I have found that the "just-the-facts" reports, such as yours, from the flood areas tell me much more than the overhyped media reports that I have seen. Thank you!
I really hope you guys are okay. I saw the upload with footage from the storm... and I didn't know you were right on the Nolichucky River (sp?) - so I'm really eager to see your next upload. I know services... lots of them... are down - and will be down for a while. They are reporting it will be months before service is restored. I can't imagine! My worst storm was Sandy... no power for 29 days - and that was tough enough. I only survived because I had a big 3500 watt inverter and a couple of extra car batteries. I hooked them all up, started the car... the alternators did their thing... and FINALLY I could brew a pot of coffee. I wasn't all that prepared... but you guys seem like you would be better prepared. Just know there are people out here thinking of you... keeping you in our hearts and prayers. God speed!
The Gospel Jesus Christ loves you and died, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven to pay for your sin! Repent and turn to Him and you will walk in light and be saved. Read the book of John and Luke to see God's love for you!
Did Jesus cause this? Walking on the water? Answering prayers? Calming the storms? Didn’t your old book describe a bigger flood caused by “father god?” Wake up people…
Standing on that bridge is a fools errand. Just plain stupid. People put WAY too much stock in man made structures and technology. The power of nature can be humbling. That fact that those people didn’t learn that lesson in the last 24 hours is just disturbing. Underneath, guaranteed the water is pulling all of the surrounding ground support from around the bridge piers. Who knows how deep the builders drove piles for them, but I know I wouldn’t be the guinea pig standing up there to find out. 🙄
🇨🇦 WoW 😮 107 Bridge, gone, just like that! 😭😭 People are dang lucky that Bridge held up. Thankyou for the Video, sending prayers to all of you wonderful People 🙏🏼

Boggles the mind how anyone would be driving, parking, standing on this bridge after watching videos of flood waters washing away so many bridges.
Right these bridges collapse under all that water! That's a BIG No for me!

Please fix your dates. It's not 2025 yet. (Smile)
I thought we had time to prepare😊
5:00 is dated 2025 😮
Hopefully not a future prediction
Watch out for the superstitious, they are hardly helpful to disaster victims with their hate and judgement. Or they are a bot.
It’s just a representation on the destruction to come

the problem is that insurance companies will increase rates due to this flooding, but this is not just rain flooding from a severe thunderstorm, this is hurricane storm flooding, which is a totally different animal in it's own right. companies and agencies like FEMA need to understand this
They do. They don't care! It's all about the money.
They’ll just tell you, you should have had hurricane insurance as they’re raising your rates.
Yup insurance companies were on that bridge taking inventory. Hey there goes sams roof and isn’t that Mary’s jeep..hmmm.. seems to have some water damage we will have to lower the payout for that. 😂
FEMA is just “public insurance” funded by debt on all the future USA citizens through taxes and inflation.
Stop building next to rivers at the bottom of hills or next to rising oceans. NO-ONE can keep paying for rebuilding in these areas.
Climate change is REAL. OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE!
The fact that there are people out there from up northeast making fun of this shit is absolutely disgusting. It seems every time some state or specific zone of the US has life-threatening events occur and lives of men, women and children are needlessly lost, they find it 'funny' simply over political differences. I say it's about high time we just stop trying to coexist around folks like this, let alone much of the northeast, and that's coming from a Canadian stuck in NJ. People up here disgust me.
This foolishness exists everywhere. There are people from the South online spewing foolishness about people from WNC.
Glad you are ok, hope you didn't get much damage at your place.
Sending Prayers for the Emergency Crews to have a safe and swift recovery for all those affected.

Happy to read that all is OK at the Kraemer homestead. I have friends in Hot Springs that had advised me of the high water on the Nolichucky River and French Broad, and I recalled that your property there in Greene County had Nolichucky River frontage.
I am calling that storm Hell-ene! Upper East TN saw too much damage. There were areas that got 33 inches of rain. Nice bear tracks! The 107 bridge is a great example why you don't stand on a bridge and watch the floodwaters!
Helene is Greek for Light bearer, Satanic, Lucifer the Light Bearer
TDOT spokesperson said the Nolichucky was flowing almost twice Niagra Falls
Heartbreaking to where most of us podcasters aren't talking about it on our channels. Literally makes tears well up in my eyes watching some of these videos. Brave souls out there recording and keeping us all informed. Not all of us could do it and keep our composure.
I remember in '06 being on a really high bridge with raging flood waters going beneath. Was stuck in traffic on the bridge, and i saw trailers, houses, sheds, buses, and big trees floating on down. Makes you feel very small
Glad to hear from y’all. Been praying for you & all the animals on your place today & keeping an eye on both of your channels today. Stay safe & thank God you’re all okay!
What is their other channel? I only knew of this one
Bear print! We had similar damage to your farm in Grainger county, loss of trees and power, but otherwise AOK. Let me know if you find a way we locals can help.
Look at the speed of that water. The force😞
Whoever designed and built that dam knew what they were doing.
Glad y’all are safe! Be watchful!

Glad you and Katie are safe. I currently live in Fl and while we had the high winds, we didn’t have the rains that TN and NC received. We’re currently searching for our TN home and am reminded of all the property search videos I watched of you and Katie when you start your journey. I’m hoping it doesn’t take as many!

⚽THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age that Christ brought to purify man with His word"
(Almighty God, the Ruler of all things, exercises His kingly power from His throne. He rules the universe and all things, and He guides us throughout the world. Everything, from the environment that surrounds us to people, events, and things, exists by the permission of His throne. Praise God in the midst of your sickness and enjoy God in the midst of your sickness and enjoy God in the midst of your praise. Don't lose hope when you get sick keep searching and never give up, and God will shine His light on you. How much faith did Job have? Almighty God is an almighty healer! To dwell in sickness is to be sick, but to dwell in the spirit is to be healed. The resurrected life of Christ is in our will. God's word is truly sweet! God's word is effective medicine! It shames the devils and Satan! His word moves quickly to save our hearts! Faith is like a wooden bridge: Those who hold fast to life will find it difficult to cross, but those who are willing to sacrifice themselves will be able to cross, without falling and without fear. If people harbor timid and fearful thoughts, it is because they have been deceived by Satan, afraid that we will cross the bridge of faith to enter God. We must pray to God every moment that His light shines on us, rely on God every moment to remove Satan's poison from our will, practice in our spirit every moment how to get closer to God, and let the God ofgovernment to our whole being. 🙏)
Almighty God said
Almighty God, the Ruler of ALL THINGS, EXERCISES His AUTHORITY as KING from His THRONE. He RULES THE UNIVERSE and ALL THINGS, and He GUIDES us THROUGHOUT THE EARTH. We draw close to Him every moment, and face Him quietly, never wasting a moment, and we have lessons to learn all the time. 🙏
Everything, from the environment that surrounds us to people, events, and things, exists by the permission of His throne. Do not let there be a grudge in your heart for any reason, otherwise God will not grant you His grace. When FEELINGS LAND, it is GOD'S LOVE, and surely His good DESIRE is INSIDE it. Although your BODY may be a little HARD, DO NOT ACCEPT IDEAS from SATAN. PRAISE GOD IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR FEELINGS and ENJOY GOD IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR FEELINGS and ENJOY GOD IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR PRAISE. 🙏
Don't lose hope when you have FEELING, keep SEARCHING and never GIVE UP, and GOD WILL SHOW YOU HIS LIGHT. How much FAITH did Job have? Almighty God is an ALMIGHTY HEALER! To dwell in the EMOTION is to HURT, but to dwell in the SPIRIT is to HEALING. AS LONG AS YOU HAVE BREATH LEFT, GOD WILL NOT LET YOU DIE. 🔴🙏
It is in our WILL that we LIVE again -- the LIFE of CHRIST. It cannot be denied that our faith in the presence of God is lacking: May GOD grant us the WILL of TRUE FAITH in our WILL. GOD'S WORD IS TRULY SWEET! GOD'S WORD IS EFFECTIVE MEDICINE! 🙏💐
It SHAMES the DEVIL and SATAN! UNDERSTANDING GOD'S WORD GIVES US SUPPORT. His WORD WORKS FAST to SAVE our HEARTS! 🙏🌷
It REMOVES ALL THINGS and pacifies EVERYTHING. FAITH is like a wooden BRIDGE: Those who CLING TOO TIGHTLY to LIFE will find it DIFFICULT to CROSS it, BUT those who are WILLING to SACRIFICE themselves CAN CROSS, without FALLING and without FEAR. 🙏🌹
If MAN harbors SHY and FEARFUL THOUGHTS, it is because SATAN HAS DECEIVED THEM, FEARING THAT WE WILL CROSS THE BRIDGE OF FAITH to ENTER GOD. SATAN TRIES EVERY POSSIBLE way to SEND us these ideas. 😪
We must PRAY to GOD at every moment that His LIGHT SHINES us, HOPE on GOD at every moment to REMOVE SATAN'S POISON from our WILL, WORK with our SPIRIT at every MOMENT HOW TO BE CLOSE TO GOD, LET GOD HAVE authority toour whole PERSON. 🌹🙏
From The WORD, Vol. 1. The Manifestation and Work of God. Utterances of Christ at the Beginning Chapter 6
Fulfillment of (John 1:1) and (Ezekiel 2:9-10), (Revelation 18:9,13)
The Savior has returned and He or Christ has fulfilled His building of the kingdom/church on top of the rock or standing in the worthy holy place in the air/UA-cam! When He came He fulfilled what was prophesied in the book of Revelation and from there it is recorded that He changed a new name and the name of His city from ("THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD" 💐) "The Epistle to the church of Philadelphia" "The one who overcomes is I will make a pillar totemple of my God, and he shall not be removed from it forever. I will engrave on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem that will come down out of heaven from my God. I will also engrave him with my new name. (Revelation 3:12). ... "The Reign of the Prince of Peace" "For a baby boy is born and he will rule over us. He is the wonderful counselor, the Almighty God, the eternal Father, the Prince of peace." (Isaiah 9:6). ... "For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their SHEPHERD. He will lead them to springs of life-giving water; and God will wipe away the tears from their eyes." (Revelation 7:17).
"They said together, "Salvation comes from the Lamb, and from our God who sits on the throne!" (Revelation 7:10). ... So God's sheep and the right people He created have come to His holy city the New Jerusalem that will only last on earth for 1,000 years "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD"💐

Have people lost there minds get the heck off that bridge.
Great shots of the dam overflow.
Nathan it says, 2025 on the video. 😂 That. Ridge that collapsed is where I live. We go over that bridge many times. Greeneville and Greene County got hit hard as did New Port, Erwin, Asheville and all the surrounding areas.
I wondered about you guys knowing how close the Nolichucky is to you. I am so happy you are doing good.
Oh my! I was thinking about you and others in your area - I hope all your hard work has not been effected too badly. Thanks for keeping us posted.
Landslides also could occur when near riverbanks or on land that slopes.
It looks like a miracle that the dam held. Stay safe and thanks for posting this.
Most definitely a bear print, stay safe
Thankful that y’all are okay. Hurricane Helene was horrible. 😢
WOW WOW WOW!!
Glad you are ok! Been waiting for you to post something!
NOW do you realize just how IMPORTANT land line phone service is ?
Seriously? God almighty, you must be a liberal! Lines would have been destroyed just like the electrical grid.
Actually land lines were out too.
The power of water is incredible! Glad you guys are safe!

What blows my mind the most in these videos is the raw energy in that river. The amount of physical momentum and weight in just a 1" slice of that river is staggering, let alone miles of it. Mother nature has got some crazy muscles.
and the people park on the bridge.
Nate, thanks for your calm reporting of the flooding in your area, pointing out the details of how high the water was. I have found that the "just-the-facts" reports, such as yours, from the flood areas tell me much more than the overhyped media reports that I have seen. Thank you!
Would not be on that bridge. The footings were not designed for that volume and speed.
So grateful you're ok! ❤
🎺✝️REPENT "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved" ROMANS 10:13 Amein. 🤍
According to the timestamp, the 107 bridge will be destroyed 1 year from now. We have plenty of time to get ready.
R.I.P to family love ones in the flood
Last place I would want to be. On a bridge that’s probably comprised people 🫣 Stay away let water recede.
Wow - Thanks for sharing!
Wow! God help us! So happy youguys are ok! Blessings!
I really hope you guys are okay. I saw the upload with footage from the storm... and I didn't know you were right on the Nolichucky River (sp?) - so I'm really eager to see your next upload. I know services... lots of them... are down - and will be down for a while. They are reporting it will be months before service is restored. I can't imagine! My worst storm was Sandy... no power for 29 days - and that was tough enough. I only survived because I had a big 3500 watt inverter and a couple of extra car batteries. I hooked them all up, started the car... the alternators did their thing... and FINALLY I could brew a pot of coffee. I wasn't all that prepared... but you guys seem like you would be better prepared. Just know there are people out here thinking of you... keeping you in our hearts and prayers. God speed!
The Gospel
Jesus Christ loves you and died, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven to pay for your sin! Repent and turn to Him and you will walk in light and be saved. Read the book of John and Luke to see God's love for you!
Did Jesus cause this? Walking on the water? Answering prayers? Calming the storms? Didn’t your old book describe a bigger flood caused by “father god?”
Wake up people…

Standing on that bridge is a fools errand. Just plain stupid. People put WAY too much stock in man made structures and technology. The power of nature can be humbling. That fact that those people didn’t learn that lesson in the last 24 hours is just disturbing. Underneath, guaranteed the water is pulling all of the surrounding ground support from around the bridge piers. Who knows how deep the builders drove piles for them, but I know I wouldn’t be the guinea pig standing up there to find out. 🙄
I’m seeing a lot of people criticizing y’all for being on the bridge. These are your stomping grounds. Keep up the good work and stay safe!!
This is why drones exist. Get off the bridge!! I pray everyone is okay.
🇨🇦 WoW 😮 107 Bridge, gone, just like that! 😭😭 People are dang lucky that Bridge held up. Thankyou for the Video, sending prayers to all of you wonderful People 🙏🏼

Great video! Can’t believe they let folks stand on the bridge as the water rose. Wowie!
Get off the bridge 🙄
so sorry for all the people who are going through this, please stay safe hugsssss
It needs to be investigated if they're doing cloud seeding in the gulf
They do it, and good luck getting the machine to investigate itself.
You'll apparently believe any crazy theory to not recognize the early ravages of human caused catastrophic climate change.
