Child Of God Exactly what I was thinking. I live up by st louis and we got an unbelievable amount of rain from Ike. Hoping that Harvey doesn't do the same.
“The hurricane ike creature.” “The hurricane ike creature was a figure which appeared in hundreds of recordings from those whom stayed or couldn’t leave the path of hurricane ike. The creature appeared as a drenched, hooded figure, and tore through walls and metal, at least as much as it could, screaming whilst doing so. The creature also clawed its way through several foundations, leading to collapsed buildings, only amplifying the already tense night. The creature didn’t stop at just clawing it’s way through walls and foundations. It clawed through anything it could get its claws on. Ripping and tearing apart anything it could find. It also ripped through organs and several survivors, alongside this, it was nearly impossible to escape.”
The winds during hurricane Ike were unreal. I was pretty young (7) but I remember it so vividly. I remember hearing the wind howling. I put my hand on the walls of my house, and I could feel them shifting and bending. Lightning flew around like fireballs... Then I woke up during the eye and you could literally hear a pin drop. Wild.
Buddy of mine was in college classes at U of H at Galveston. He lived in a house on the Bolivar Pennisula. I was so glad he was invited to stay with a few classmates of his inland. His place on the pennisula washed away. Had been saying that he was going to stay and ride out the storm there before getting that phone call from them. Saved his life.
I remember I had just moved to Houston that August and I was living in an apartment complex in 3rd Ward and decided to evacuate. As we were packing our things into the car, I remember a group of men were standing outside and yelled out at us if we were leaving and we were like yep. They all laughed at us as if we were some idiots. Looks like the joke was on them because the apartment complex flooded and was without power for nearly 2 weeks.
madmann1000 They were probably around for Hurricane Rita when they tried evacuating a city of 6 million people. Some of the worst traffic ever. If I remember correctly some hundred people died, none of which had anything to do with the hurricane itself but more from a massive heatwave. You couldn't afford to turn the AC on either since you were likely low on gas and both the wind and traffic were at a complete standstill. There really wasn't any hurricane either, it was all just heavy wind and rain. Which was a big reason for why most people didn't evacuate for Ike.
I appreciate the ppl who have the balls for stuff like this....Nature is so beautiful yet terrifying at times....The sound of the wind would of been enough to drive me in a closet with a bible 😂
I actually just stumbled on this video prepping for a hurricane summit! I was working in a facility in Texas City and I listened to this same sound for about 12 hours with only a 30 minute reprieve when the eye of the storm came across. I could actually hear this sound in my head for several days after the storm. Great video and audio!
I was there on the Strand in a house built in the 1920s. 2 blocks from where it entered . We were stuck upstairs for 2 weeks .Helicopters overhead wanting to rescue us. I now live in Houston . Made a believer out of me.
I was 13 when Ike happened. I remember my family found a injured baby squirrel in our backyard after the hurricane went through, and we named it Ike and took care of it till it passed away.
I stayed in Houston during Ike after the utter disaster that was trying to evacuate during Rita. I was in an apartment, on level 2 of 3, with North facing windows. My wife was able to sleep but I tried to sleep at midnight or so and could not sleep because of how loud it was and how scary it sounded. My dog couldn't sleep either. For a few hours straight it sounded like a train was driving over our ceiling. It was really intense. I looked out the window and a palm tree was at a 45 degree angle, facing west (counterclockwise wind). Well, I lived along I-45, and the eye of the hurricane passed right over us, so the first band that hit us pushed that palm tree 45 degrees to the west, but in the morning I looked back out the window and it was now 45 degrees facing east, because the 2nd band that hit it would have been moving west to east, since the eye had passed us. Crazy ass shit. We didn't suffer any damage but it was the most frightened I'd ever been. For hours, just lying in a dark bedroom listening to what sounds like a train drive right over your ceiling, wondering if your windows are going to pop out any second, or the walls are going to tear apart.
I remember where I was on the night Ike hit. I was only 10 years old and scared out of my mind, being from Idaho and never having gone through this before I had reason to be scared. We huddle in our neighbors farm house that was sheltered by oak trees. By about midnight, I had fallen asleep, but I woke up again very shortly after the eye had passed over, I awoke to the southern eyewall... I will never forget the sound of the screaming wind...
I remember this day, my family and I took off to San Antonio what was supposed to be a 4-5hr drive ended up taking us 12hrs only to end up in the outskirts of Houston which by them Hurricane Ike has already dissolved. Horrible experience...
I remember how my home was after Ike (went to Austin during it), two of our large trees had fallen, one of them of the living room roof, I remember not having power for 2 weeks and how I had to sleep by my window with the fallen tree right beside it, it was very weird time in my very small life (was around 6 years old)
I remember how bad the winds were! I was in Kingwood and had just graduated high school! Living in a forest of trees and one of our neighbors had one cut right through their house. We all lost power for over 10 days! It was insane!
I volunteered at my workplace, parkway-Tidwell Hospital, and the PArkway at Parker and I-45 was evacuated due to its being in the flood plain and we hunkered down at the Tidwell location. I was sent to Downtown Corridor by my late director, Marie Price and I ended up going to Harris County EMS building on N. Shepherd Dr, just one block south of Tidwell and I was stationed at one of the incoming lines, where I started receiving phone calls from Galveston to Houston,m the first being from UTMB-Galveston, around 8:30 pm, that they had lost power and they were on the back-up generator. This type of call was repeated by every hospital along the path of Ike, one by one as the storm's eye passed over them, and finally, around 10:45 pm or so, the eye passed over the Harris County EMS area and we had the FEMA director, Michael Chertoff in the building at the time, can you believe that? You did a great job at recording this monumental footage.
I'm so happy we don't get hurricanes in the UK, the last hurricane that was actually like this one was over 25 years ago before I was born. The only place I have been in a huge storm like this was Cyprus
JettFox I think you mean if this happened now, you would see kids outside dabbing at the hurricane. They're probably all Jake Paul fans who think they are "savage."
How thrilling! Wish I could've joined you lol. Everyone's saying how the wind is scary (which it is) but it's so rare to be able to experience that all by yourself, I'm kinda jealous 😅
The part where you said you felt you were definitely being watched in the parking garage, I swear I saw a lens flare from the red SUV in there. I think it was a Ford Expedition.
yeah, that's what I heard...Alicia happened the year before I was born so this was my first real hurricane...so I wanted to really experience it:) Mission accomplished;)
I have never been in a hurricane and it sure would be an experience if I did have one. But hurricanes to some people are awesome, and they are. I like hurricanes. But, realizing the damage and what's possibly gonna happen to you is terrifying. Bless everyone who had to ever go through a hurricane. I hope your okay. RIP other victims through the hurricanes. Your in a better and safer place❤
Just now saw your video. I am a native Houstonian and I live in the Museum District. We lost power as soon as the hurricane hit Houston and was without power for two weeks. I made coffee and all meals on a Coleman Stove. I remember a cool front came thru a couple of days after the storm which helped for one day. Then it was hot and humid! I ran a generator on my back patio continuously just to keep the refrigerator and a fan running. Not fun!!
Hurricanes are so eerie. I think i hate them more than tornadoes. At least with tornadoes it's over relatively quickly. Hurricanes just seem to never end.
parallelpinkparakeet I see what you're saying, but I think tornadoes are a little more scary because they are so unpredictable and powerful. Thanks for watching though :-)
We evacuated to Dallas. I remember coming home (to Brazoria County) going through downtown Houston, and it looked like a bomb had gone off in downtown. It was surreal.
I came here because of Matthew. Luckily here in Brazil we don't usually have hurricanes, but I'm fascinated with them. Unfortunately thousands of people have to face them frequently, but I hope everyone to be OK after Matthew, at least. Nice video, by the way! Greetings from Brazil!
Listening to the storm reminds me of how terrifying it was. It was strange how houses around mine were damaged with huge trees falling into them. I will never forget those sounds in the pitch dark.
I had just turned 7 when this happened(my birthday is on Sept 10th), we went to Dallas for safety. When we came back we cleaned everything outside the house and my uncle made me a tree house with the fallen tree but my older cousin that was 10 claimed it because it was in her backyard. my childhood was ruined that day when my cousin claimed the tree :(
Hurricane Ike took the roof off our house and blew down our fence and I live in Ohio. Trees were ripped out of the ground and on top of houses and cars. Nothing compared to what happened to Texas, but still unbelievable for as far away as we were.
Smart idea to put your valuables that you don't want to loose in your car, just gotta hope that parking garage its in won't collapse. what i do is use a homemade storm proof box no matter how hard it gets dropped or if something heavy falls on it, the box cant be crushed or damaged in anyway, like i put photos in there i don't wan to loose, my laptop, and so on
True, but I literally had everything I owned in my car. Guitars, books, computers, clothes, etc... And, btw, there's no way that parking garage was gonna collapse...The concrete pillars alone were like 6 feet in diameter, not to mention, the wind was allowed to flow thru it as opposed to blowing against it....
I was 7 when this happened. We stayed the night in our church and we went outside and played in it when the eye hit. Otherwise, it was at it's worst overnight. I didn't sleep at all because the wind sounded like screaming, and the lightning was so close. We think lightning struck the steeple on the church because at one point, the whole church lost power, and we heard the loudest clap of thunder EVER. And then the power just comes right back on. After Ike left, we went home only to find that a tree had fallen right next to our house, and the roof was damaged. 3 weeks after Ike, I was playing outside during a thunderstorm, and lightning actually struck a tree less than half a mile away from me!!! Now THAT was loud!!!!
I was living in an old old house in montrose. Me and my friend and all of my pets stayed in the hallway that night. I woke up and there was a tree in my bed. The winds were so loud I didn’t even hear it
Yeah, it got really intense in the early morning...I'm glad u know what I'm sayin' cuz it seems like videos never do justice to the way it really felt. Partly the reason that I left out the music....to really attempt to portray the way it felt to be there in person... Thnx for the comment:)
I thought I'd watched all of the raw clips from the storm, somehow I missed your clip until today. We rode the storm out in our condo in Baytown. It was the most terrifying experience I've been through. Pitch black, roaring winds in the middle of the night, things slamming against the house...I thought our roof was going to give. The sound of the wind in your video is just incredible. We are all very lucky this came ashore as a category two and nothing stronger. Which office building were you in? And did downtown experience the eye of the storm? That was the most incredible experience, to go outside to a perfect calm and look up and see stars, but knowing to stay close to the front door because the winds would be coming back within minutes with a vengeance and from the opposite direction. Thanks again for the video. It's great to see if from a new perspective.
Thank u. I was actually in Allen Center 2 and the eye of the storm did pass over, but the footage of the eye passing over was under-whelming so it didn't make the cut. Thanks for watching tho:-)
You were a brave soul Tommy. I'm surprised that in the tunnel's security don't come down and run you off. There is camera everywhere, and yes they were watching you. Creepy sounds, at 5:35 sounds as if someone is crying or screaming, yelling out something. Creepy.
2008 I believe I was only like 6 or 7 when ike hit and we had to go see someone and we had stayed in a hotel and we were hearing the exact same thing I was terrifed
I remember when this happened I think I was in the fifth grade or elementary. We got power back the next day but school was out for a week. All my cousins who lived in Sharpstown got to spend the week with us. Man, I remember the winds being so strong that it blew upon the door from the house into the garage even when the Garage door was closed.
Hell I'm in California. And your video footage made me very scared of ever coming to Texas for anything. I'll take an earthquake and day before I take on a Texas storm.
Wow! Crazy thing is me and some of my family came to Houston where my aunt lives during Gustav (made it out of Louisiana before curfew)because we all had flooding in our homes and part of my grandmother's roof collapsed over the chair she sat everyday. Get there and then had to go to Dallas to get away, luckily my aunt has the option to from a laptop and paid for us to stay in a hotel for a few days...a trip I'll never forget. LoL
Those winds sound terrifying! My son just started working at Centerpoint Energy the year IKE hit. Said it was crazy! He took dozens of photos of the damage and sent them to me. Chase Towers had almost every single window blown out.
Here because Hurricane Laura! My state looks like a bomb 💣 was dropped off 💔 I live in Lake Charles and evacuated to Deridder and the winds were the scariest part! I felt the house shake as if it were by some railroad tracks 🛤
Mr.Krabs i was 5 years old when it hit us . and I remember i had to stay in my uncles house with my fam over the hurricane because i lived in apartments and when we came back a tree had fell in "OUR" apartment, the worst thing was that i hadn't made a year living in Houston and there was already a Hurricane
Nature is so scary , those winds sound like lost souls 😱
Child Of God He has balls of steel like how can he be there alone during all of that i would literally ne in the streets begging for help lol
Child Of God Exactly what I was thinking. I live up by st louis and we got an unbelievable amount of rain from Ike. Hoping that Harvey doesn't do the same.
No man gods just fake and life is an infinite void of nothing
They are Souls. Souls of Slaves thrown aboard into the Atlantic from West Africa. Its a theory.
@Noble Sir Knight bruh, he has his own beliefs, you have yours, just chill m8.
I was 10 when this happened, I'll never forget the screaming winds, exploding transformers and the house shaking all night
I was about 12
I was 9 then. In my area the storm itself wasn't nearly as bad as the massive loss of electricity that followed for over a month afterward.
I was 13, I remember I saw a snake in my house
I was 3, I remember my mom putting me and my twin sister in a bath tube with pillows
I was 1 month old when this happened
This looks more like a horror movie than what I've seen. Feeling like your being watched. A huge city with no one in it. The screaming of the winds
“The hurricane ike creature.”
“The hurricane ike creature was a figure which appeared in hundreds of recordings from those whom stayed or couldn’t leave the path of hurricane ike. The creature appeared as a drenched, hooded figure, and tore through walls and metal, at least as much as it could, screaming whilst doing so.

It also ripped through organs and several survivors, alongside this, it was nearly impossible to escape.”
Practically just a liminal Space at that point.
It's crazy how creepy winds sound. I remember hurricane Harvey and I'll never forget the sound, to me it sounded like a woman screaming. So creepy.
I had my son on August 28th 2017! The night Harvey came thru! I live in southwest Louisiana. Currently, in the path of Laura.
Tara Gayle good luck to you and ur family

Wow that was insane! The wind almost sounds like spooks haunting the city. I'm glad you didn't get injured! :)
This was just surreal. The streets were a ghost town. Creepy. Were you the only one in that building all night?
I believe so...
@Albeit Einschtien HAHA
@Albeit Einschtien It hurts laughing this much, damn you!
@Albeit Einschtien WAT
Albeit Einschtien best activity during a hurricane 🤣
This is like a science fiction movie where a person wakes up and finds he's the only one on earth. Creepy as hell. Thanks for the interesting video

Jaleesa Bohannon ha ha, yeah it was definitely creepy! and I agree, nature is beautiful, while also terrifying sometimes
Theres a hurricane in texas and its about to happen i was just wondering what is sounded like
This video on this link about generator safety really needs to be on the news ua-cam.com/video/I1jT3ANENvI/v-deo.html it’s for everyone to know about.
I actually just stumbled on this video prepping for a hurricane summit!

Thanks man, it was definitely worth the experience:-)
@@TommyShenanigansbeing from Arizona it’s quite fascinating how we have this but with sand.
I would have given my eye teeth to have done this!!
That sound is SO scary! You are one brave man!
Catch me on the next one;-)
Well, just saw this.. hahaha! Harvey would have been just a rain maker...
@@LindyLooo99 lol it's been 5 years
Imagine you're there all alone and you just see a old lady watching you..

Oh, I would've shit my pants lol
Dang... I remember during this hurricane I went to Austin and stayed with my Aunt.
Hello bandites
Wtf same😆
Bandites!!
BANDITES? POG
The Hurricane was a Annoying Through those buildings
I'll bet that you kept hearing that howl of the wind for the next few days
Andrew Messersmith gave him nightmares lol
I was there on the Strand in a house built in the 1920s. 2 blocks from where it entered . We were stuck upstairs for 2 weeks .Helicopters overhead wanting to rescue us. I now live in Houston . Made a believer out of me.

I remember I got to miss freshman year for almost 3 weeks cause of this. Fucking awesome.
Hey me too! Well, 'cept for me it was from Harvey.
@@adrianchapa9194 I'm in Louisville and we got a very bad windstorm from this
Adrian Chapa Same, my first two weeks of college were cancelled due to Harvey
that wind sounds like motherfucking zombies and when he zoomed in at 5:46 that was not ok.
now imagine hearing those sounds all night
Corey Castillo it’s the sounds of demons coming to take souls to the fiery inferno and bowels of hell next to Lucifer.
0:26 Hurricane Dining Options :
Feed your damn self.
I swear that sound??? That sound is a sound I will NEVER FORGET!
2021 makes this footage looks like it was filmed in 2000/2001/2002
I remember laying in my drive way when the storm first hit because that cool wind felt so goooooood
I stayed in Houston during Ike after the utter disaster that was trying to evacuate during Rita. I was in an apartment, on level 2 of 3, with North facing windows.

Cobina Lee thank you, but I definitely understood the risk. It was a risk I was willing to take. Thanks for watching though :-)
hudstar2011 when I was in the elevator, the storm was still a couple hours away
I don't know much about hurricanes. So may I ask what would happen if you are inside an elevator during a hurricane?
the sounds from the wind sound Creepy.
It sounds like lost souls from hell
You are not the only one, I think very, very creepy to

The last time I saw shards of broken windows like that in downtown Houston was November 16, 1993 when a F-1 tornado ripped through.
I remember how my home was after Ike (went to Austin during it), two of our large trees had fallen, one of them of the living room roof, I remember not having power for 2 weeks and how I had to sleep by my window with the fallen tree right beside it, it was very weird time in my very small life (was around 6 years old)

We got no sympathy from this hurricane.
I was surprised that the building you were in still had power during the big gusts of wind.
I know, right?!
Power lines in Downtown Houston are buried underground. 90% of the city lost power at one point.
yeah, that's what I heard...Alicia happened the year before I was born so this was my first real hurricane...so I wanted to really experience it:)
Mission accomplished;)
I have never been in a hurricane and it sure would be an experience if I did have one. But hurricanes to some people are awesome, and they are. I like hurricanes. But, realizing the damage and what's possibly gonna happen to you is terrifying.
Bless everyone who had to ever go through a hurricane. I hope your okay.
RIP other victims through the hurricanes. Your in a better and safer place❤

that mall at the beginning of the video- keep in mind that that is UNDERGROUND Houston!
Valerie Sanchez Yes ma'am, you're correct:-)
Thanks for watching!
Hurricane Ike took the roof off our house and blew down our fence and I live in Ohio. Trees were ripped out of the ground and on top of houses and cars. Nothing compared to what happened to Texas, but still unbelievable for as far away as we were.
The sound of that wind- "One thousand screaming demons" springs to mind. Man that'd spook me.
I remember Hurricane ike...it knocked over a tree in my back yard and it murdered my house😂😂😂
Me to
Sameee
+Alex Castillo worst part about it I had moved in a week before and the tree smashed into my brand new house
Berserker Titan I'm sorry for your loss 😂😂😂
Berserker Titan my whole family had to evacuate we stay in a hotel
I Remember this night
Next morning chilling in the garage with a power generator eating crackers then going to Home Depot
Smart idea to put your valuables that you don't want to loose in your car, just gotta hope that parking garage its in won't collapse. what i do is use a homemade storm proof box no matter how hard it gets dropped or if something heavy falls on it, the box cant be crushed or damaged in anyway, like i put photos in there i don't wan to loose, my laptop, and so on
True, but I literally had everything I owned in my car. Guitars, books, computers, clothes, etc...
And, btw, there's no way that parking garage was gonna collapse...The concrete pillars alone were like 6 feet in diameter, not to mention, the wind was allowed to flow thru it as opposed to blowing against it....
I was 7 when this happened. We stayed the night in our church and we went outside and played in it when the eye hit. Otherwise, it was at it's worst overnight. I didn't sleep at all because the wind sounded like screaming, and the lightning was so close. We think lightning struck the steeple on the church because at one point, the whole church lost power, and we heard the loudest clap of thunder EVER. And then the power just comes right back on. After Ike left, we went home only to find that a tree had fallen right next to our house, and the roof was damaged. 3 weeks after Ike, I was playing outside during a thunderstorm, and lightning actually struck a tree less than half a mile away from me!!! Now THAT was loud!!!!
Where you staying in the church in downtown houston?
No, I was all the way in Washington County.
ScorpioVirgo_AwesomeChannel_GreatJob! Yeah, you'd think the one place u would be safe is a church! haha
Lightning once struck the house right next to mine.
Love this video, feels like it’s the end of the world. Thanks to the person who video taped it, hope there’re more videos like this.
My family and I rode it out. At my aunts house it was screaming like this plus banging. The most terrifying noise I’ve ever heard.
I was living in an old old house in montrose. Me and my friend and all of my pets stayed in the hallway that night. I woke up and there was a tree in my bed. The winds were so loud I didn’t even hear it
Yeah, it got really intense in the early morning...I'm glad u know what I'm sayin' cuz it seems like videos never do justice to the way it really felt. Partly the reason that I left out the music....to really attempt to portray the way it felt to be there in person...
Thnx for the comment:)
Ahh the Hyatt. If I would have stayed that would have been my choice.
+bobhailey1290 Haha, I actually wasn't staying there but I was in a connected building lol....thanks for watchin!
Curiosity, most importantly, and the fact that I didn't have anywhere to safely keep my car...
I lived in a bad part of town on a flood plane...
I thought I'd watched all of the raw clips from the storm, somehow I missed your clip until today. We rode the storm out in our condo in Baytown. It was the most terrifying experience I've been through. Pitch black, roaring winds in the middle of the night, things slamming against the house...I thought our roof was going to give. The sound of the wind in your video is just incredible. We are all very lucky this came ashore as a category two and nothing stronger.
Which office building were you in? And did downtown experience the eye of the storm? That was the most incredible experience, to go outside to a perfect calm and look up and see stars, but knowing to stay close to the front door because the winds would be coming back within minutes with a vengeance and from the opposite direction.
Thanks again for the video. It's great to see if from a new perspective.
Thank u. I was actually in Allen Center 2 and the eye of the storm did pass over, but the footage of the eye passing over was under-whelming so it didn't make the cut. Thanks for watching tho:-)
You were a brave soul Tommy. I'm surprised that in the tunnel's security don't come down and run you off. There is camera everywhere, and yes they were watching you. Creepy sounds, at 5:35 sounds as if someone is crying or screaming, yelling out something. Creepy.
Hurricane Ike was the first hurricane that I learned about. I was seven.
the sound the wind is making is going to give me nightmares.
We had a drought that summer leading up to the hurricane, which is why all those trees snapped like twigs all over the city.
2008 I believe I was only like 6 or 7 when ike hit and we had to go see someone and we had stayed in a hotel and we were hearing the exact same thing I was terrifed
6:44 Ooooh nice fright
I bet ya guys that Hurricane Ike summoned dem spirits
This is what happens when Chuck Norris sneezes... In all seriousness that was terrifying. The sound would make me want to scream.
You can hear it building up getting stronger..... that is so creepy and haunting
I remember when this happened I think I was in the fifth grade or elementary. We got power back the next day but school was out for a week. All my cousins who lived in Sharpstown got to spend the week with us. Man, I remember the winds being so strong that it blew upon the door from the house into the garage even when the Garage door was closed.
Yeah, it was pretty wild! Glad yall were safe tho:-)
Thanks for watching and feel free to share/subscribe:-)
The sound of the wind is spooky as all hell! Dang. That is terrifying.
Hell I'm in California. And your video footage made me very scared of ever coming to Texas for anything. I'll take an earthquake and day before I take on a Texas storm.
I remember that howling wind. I was in 8th grade when this happened. How'd you get access into the buildings?
I worked in 2 Allen Center. thanks for watching! Feel free to subscribe/share:-)
+ReaPeR Domino I was 5 !!
I remember this, i was out with my family and when i came home, my house power was gone, and that is when the storm started
Wow! Crazy thing is me and some of my family came to Houston where my aunt lives during Gustav (made it out of Louisiana before curfew)because we all had flooding in our homes and part of my grandmother's roof collapsed over the chair she sat everyday. Get there and then had to go to Dallas to get away, luckily my aunt has the option to from a laptop and paid for us to stay in a hotel for a few days...a trip I'll never forget. LoL
Those winds sound terrifying! My son just started working at Centerpoint Energy the year IKE hit. Said it was crazy! He took dozens of photos of the damage and sent them to me. Chase Towers had almost every single window blown out.
Great footage, bro. Sounds like the gates of Hell opened up!
I can't leave without saying you have some serious balls to do this expecially ALONE!!!!
Here because Hurricane Laura! My state looks like a bomb 💣 was dropped off 💔 I live in Lake Charles and evacuated to Deridder and the winds were the scariest part! I felt the house shake as if it were by some railroad tracks 🛤
I was here when I was a 3 or 4 years old
Mr.Krabs i was 5 years old when it hit us . and I remember i had to stay in my uncles house with my fam over the hurricane because i lived in apartments and when we came back a tree had fell in "OUR" apartment, the worst thing was that i hadn't made a year living in Houston and there was already a Hurricane
Mr.Krabs we got a derect hit by cat 3 over 100 mph wind
Mr.Krabs I was 8 lol
I was 7
I was 8.
It's like a zombie apocalypse.
Haha, i know right?!
This looked like at least a Cat 3/4. Hard to believe it was only a 2
I don’t remember this because I was young but at least you recorded this
Damn, glad you survived; thank you as well for making this video for us to see!
I’m convinced that Hurricane Ike had disturbed something supernatural while developing. Ike’s winds are the most unnerving sound i’ve heard to date
