#wildfires
did he say that his horses burned up in the driveway!?!? Tragic
What a sick man he left his houses behind but the same time it was to late to pack his stuff.
I think it was his neighbor's horses and peacocks. :'(
@@azia5051 - In situations like that, sometimes all anyone can do is turn them loose and hope they can outrun it. Still, it's a lot smarter when animals are involved to evacuate earlier rather than later.
Oh! I thought he have a pet horses I did not knows that.
Thanks.
Does anyone ever wonder why this kind of devastating fire is frequent in California? It was not long when it was hit by this kind of fire, right?
The ecosystem in most of the fire areas is called a chaparral biome. These areas have alot of dry grasses and trees. Before long term settlements on these areas, fires would happen periodically and burn out on their own. Now we cant let fires burn out on their own because they would burn down our buildings. But a consequence is that burnable material builds up in the uninhabited areas so when fires do happen there is more fuel. Also climate change is causing conditions to be more suitable for fires to start.
Nope-not normal. Wildfires are normal there; but not at this scale in that area every year like clockwork
Part of it is due to over population in heavily wooded areas, and that same population not taking care of their properties and being fire safe. The fog keeps the santa cruz mountains moist clear through August, but lightning strikes are exceedingly rare for the area, kind of like New York having an Earthquake, or Florida NOT having a hurricane.
@@RicoLen1 New York has had earthquakes. Not as severe. But I remember a rumbling and glass clinging all over the place.
August has always been fire season here. High heat, dry grasses and trees, lightening. My son, his wife and 3 young sons and their pets evacuated last night. They are safe at a friend’s home in San Francisco. Their home is the Santa Cruz mountains (Felton). There aren’t enough fire fighters to battle the enormity of these fires. Please pray for all involved. 🙏🏻
incredibly Jason suffered no major injuries but his bunny died...
yeah.. . the WHOLE STORY doesnt make sense..
.especially the parts where videos are being taken...
like the speeding metal truck that caught fire... but the guy filming it, was comfortable enough to stand there and film!!! and bunnies that cant outrun humans in the wild!!,
@@adamfirst3772 the burning vehicle footage wasnt his.... that was supplementary footage from firefighters.... and that car burning was a jeep grand cherokee, not a station wagon as described he took...
His bunny died because he couldn't go back and save it. It was in a cage on a burning property he had to escape from.
I guess Australia wasn’t enough for 2020. Hope everyone in the area is safe🥺
IM IN THIS AREA my friends house burnt down we are all FUCKED
MINE IS NEXT
a WE ARE SCREWED
Im freaking 15 minutes away from santa cruz and the sky is smokey
Donny Van de Beek’s Memes I’m in kinda like Watsonville but also Santa Cruz and even though the fires are an ok-ish distance away the wind is blowing right at us
I am having PTSD watching this. I live in Redding where the Carr Fire was 2 years ago. I am curious as to why he waited till the fire was on top of him before he fled? I realize a fire can move fast, I have seen it myself. But what's his reason for not leaving sooner?
the fires started in the middle of the night from lightning.... the people up on that ridge system had no warning.......... it was a huge surprise to the entire valley that we all had to evacuate.
This is a disaster. People are being targeted and no one is talking about why
What?
@@EncinitasVibe its not state, county, city or federal governments people should be so concerned about. Military weapons are real and so is private funding formed by International LLCs who seek corporate gains in technology advancements and engineering, and insurance frauds who build it to break it. Banking cartels ready with loans and high interest rates. The ones on top give no fucks for the people the people who have to survive for themselves and wait for their insurance checks now. In california breathing almost costs, just take a quick glance at the budgets laid out by california mayor's across all counties (it takes time and knowledge) They were prepared for fire season, too prepared. The budgets are all off as far as priority is concerned. Look at the case settlements from fires last year . Biggest gas and electric companies admitted in court to their crimes. Why is it okay with people to watch other people suffer? Why is it okay to accept lies? Why is it okay that all these displaced people are going to go largely forgotten nevermind all the people who were killed in this fire and the numbers wont come out till the fires stop? Thats not Okay. Believe whatever you want just be warned the records are there and you can't un know the truth but you can avoid truth and God knows the elite want to try and hide the truth.
I'm so sorry for the people who have lost everything in the last few hour, I cant help but shed tears for you. Some of who are in tents tonight.
@@paigeb1318 You people are delusional, seek help.
Lightning did this for weeks last time. Im adding a UFer ground to my panel for more arc dispersion in case we get Zapped.
@@EncinitasVibe- You need to turn off the television/ mainstream media/ government, etc. and start educating yourself/ doing some due dilligence independent research.
Can the National Guard be asked to help? There are more than 20,000 in California.
Also too busy enforcing tyranny on anarchists
Several soldiers in my unit are out with Calfire boots on ground fighting fires as we speak. On orders.
I was just thinking to my self last night I wonder when the fires are going to start because of the winds?.
Somebody praying for you. Be thankful
This is a yearly thing in smoky California.
We can no longer tolerate this.
Carson Ridge our fire season in northern cal is late sept
@@bogofusion Sadly, I know.
They need to cut down any trees within 50 yards of peoples houses. More wildfires are needed to clear the debris, but they need to do a better job of protecting people.
Check the trees!
This looks So suspicious
wat
Heart breaking
what happened to his neighbors that he stole their car?
Did he ask the owner car before he take it. And also why the hack he pack his stuff really late he should know this long time-ago.
Maybe but you never know the family next door did leave the house long tine ago.
the least of their worries.
Who cares, he had to save his life.
@@josephastier7421 who cares is maybe he killed his neighbors by stealing their car
Hi, whoever is in charge of NBC news, can you please direct people who are not close to fire? We need to help them asap to stop the fire and rescue them. Maybe people who own airplane to spray water. People who owns cars to go take water and help the firefighters, police officers and the residents with mask. Make a group of different needs. i.e. people who wants to take actions and help have a group to take food for them. A group to take bandaid, alcohol etc... a group to take clothes and blankets, a group to take toothpaste, toothbrush etc...
Wait for the last minute🤦
These things always happens every year but this is the worst 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥺😱😰
California governor needs to clear out the rubbish in these mountains. The supervisor had said that he could only get 10% of the firefighters because of cut backs. He said normally we would've had 600 firefighters. Not 60.
Newsome is a pathetic governor.
Thank your environmentalists! No brush control, No prescribed burns, Dont disturb the natural habitat!
yup, that's exactly what we did. We need to get this guy a job!
18 seconds, see that thing near the middle of the screen? It's a Pool of Water. Sadly most humans are to ignorant to buy a hose and a pump. We didn't lose our Paradise Ca home. We lucked out....Our neighbor too. And he had a pool But No way to Pump it. This is common in these fires and at Paradise. In the CZU I did see one guy save His Neighbors house by using a Bucket out of his neighbors pool! But the same guy lost his house. A doughboy, 100ft of hose and a 150gpm pump cost $1000. I'm guessing "the Law" will admonish such people
A few thousand liters of water are not gonna save your house...
@@hipsu555 You are a fucking idiot. A fool.
@@TheHypnotstCollector You are. You will pass out just from the heat and the toxic smoke and never wake up again. Better save your life than a stupid house
@@hipsu555 A small pool can stop a large fire. You stay in the city Munchkin. I have been through the Paradise fire. Hundreds of homes that had pools Burned because they had no hose or pump. One pool can save many homes. W ehave a 25,000 gal pool. And 200ft of house and a pump. This cost $1000. Water is used to put out fires. Ask a fireman. you little twit
@@TheHypnotstCollector 25,000 gal (does murica still not use metric system?) is nothing on a fire like this
Australia had to deal with this once.
We have to deal with this EVERY FUCKING YEAR
So do we. That's why we have somewhat of a kinship, and send firefighting planes/ equipment/ personnel to Australia every year.
This is from yesterday.
Taking one mailbox out at a time
Aren’t they trying to build a high speed train or something? Are you guys against progress or what?
He didn’t burn but the car did ? 🧐

So glad California spent billion$ on a train
No politics. People are losing their homes. Donate or go away.
WTF!
DEW , why does the world believe it is natural
Glad I made it to the last days!
I'll bet you a million dollars you haven't.
Damn that’s impressive. It would be fun, if not so deadly.
What a dumb ess comment. Can't expect much from a kid named julius tho.
@@johnnysofresh91 what's wrong with my name?
It totally wrecked my weed buzz....
No more mask
More mask
Air quality is at dangerous levels here. Masks needed to keep from breathing the ash.
Yo the smell is nasty ash all over my deck and shit
No gas meters in tents or Tbs Hugh... Smh only at night fires strike ! Dews ... Moutian Dew delicious
Meant Rvs ... No meters in rvs or tents .. Look at DEW ... This is evil !
trump wont help our state he has to go......go...go...go.......

I have to laugh every time I see a reporter outside during a newscast wearing a mask. Who is she going to get the virus from, the cameraman?
I don't normally wear a mask outside but here in Ca the air quality is at extremely dangerous levels. The mask at the very least will keep you from breathing in some of the ash. They are telling everyone to stay inside and not open windows.
God's wrath till people listen and stop listening to these evil people who are trying to rule and frightening my children
signs everywhere! Lord Jesus Christ is coming soon🙏🏼❤️🕊REPENT, believe in the Gospel, Be Born Again.
Just really go fuck yourself. This message is not helpful and not what people need.
These are not signs, fires have happened forever, and will continue to happen as long as forests grow, especially in dry season after a lightning storm. A true sign would be the fire being put out overnight, or you know, actual fucking words, not something that may or may not be divinely whatevered into existence. Maybe my comment is a sign from god for you to stop being such a douchebag and grow up. But you wouldn't know, and that's the problem with magical thinking.
