@@sheiladesnoo8649 because those are the only ppl who can set up road blocks! The cartel controls everything including the cops! They where so comfortable cus they knew the cops wouldnt do a damn thing. It doesnt take a genius to figure it out.
I LOVE that the person who was trapped on the bridge and the people with guns started coming toward them, that they just stepped on the gas and pushed that car with them. YES! Hit that fucking car! Get the hell out of there!
@@BeagleBageler Some people freeze up instead of "fight or flight" and if that one perp truly brandished a gun it takes 30 seconds of "freezing" to end deadly. This is why they say panic can kill you don't truly know how you'll respond unless you've got nerves of steel.

I could only imagine it's amazing any of those vehicles could run efficiently enough to do some serious 4x4ing while injecting that much smoke into the system. A lot of those guy (and women I know and have a female friend that was wild land firefighters) go in on foot. Imagine that but being on foot and 5-10 miles from a vehicle. It's an extremely under appreciated job profession.
Hearing James's panicked voice as he drove over the cliff was heart wrenching. I'm so glad he's okay. Don't be stupid on the roads! One mistake can cost you everything!
+ there was also a lack of road signs to signal the sharp turn. given that there was a tiny one on the entrance of the tunnels, it still didn't give enough warning to drivers.
The firefighters driving through the wildfire and slowly becoming trapped was one of the scariest things I’ve ever watched. It’s not easy to make decisions like that to just plow forward through the flames when you’re completely unsure if you’re driving to your death. The moment they hit that clearing i realized I was holding my breath haha
Imagine that being your oldest "kid" driving the truck. Just before my oldest got hired on as a career firefighter, our county lost a Chief who had volunteered in the California wild fires. It's just something that never leaves your memory. Nature is just so unpredictable. Rest in peace Chief. 😔💔

Guys, I can't stress this enough, if you are ever the passenger in a stressful situation like many of these clips, do everything you can to be supportive to the driver. Don't back seat drive, don't yell at them, don't panic, just tell them they got this, they are doing great, you're going to make it, etc etc. It might literally save your life.
ABSOLUTELY WRONG The two need to communicate productively. Working together as a team.. if you have 2 brains available USE THEM (you should try it) Not..... "awww you're doing so good! Gooood boy!! Come come buddy, you got this... it doesn't matter were both about to drive off a cliff - let me talk nice to you, like a toddler.. don't want to hurt anybody's feelings when we're about to die
@@brandoballer47 Yeah, no shit. But when the person driving is a competent driver and the solution to whatever problem has presented itself is obvious, telling them what to do is only going to stress them out more. You don't talk to them like a toddler, you talk to them like a boxing coach, ring side, cheering them on and building their confidence so there is zero hesitation when every fraction of a second can mean life or death. If they need directing or want your opinion, they'd ask for it. Try telling me what I need to do in that situation and I'd purposely drive of a fcuking cliff just to spite you.
The fire one got me. I was absolutely terrified, especially hearing the other people on the radio begging for help and how the guys in the truck calmly said “I think we lost some people dude” horrifying
Had an old roommate of mine that was a firefighter and sadly the wildfire got him and two of his coworkers back in 2015, similar situation, flames encircled them and they were fucked Guy was in his mid 20s
that's facts, there are lots of crazy, evil, and lazy people out there, and i just think, imagine how it'd be if the world were to fall into a apoc, too many bad people out there.
The footage of the fire and those firefighters is absolutely nuts! Those firefighters are fucking insane for keeping as calm as they did! And it's amazing they completely contained the fire a little later down the line, that was huge!
In Australia that’s called a burn over. Fire trucks will spray water on themselves and those inside cover the windows. It seems the people in this video didn’t know what to do in the situation (although it didn’t look like all the vehicles had water)

The fact there's so many videos of people getting robbed or held up in the middle of nowhere is legitimately terrifying. Like I have a lot of fears, but I have a deep primal fear of getting robbed in the middle of night all alone
As someone who is about to start driving I'm also terrified. But agian. I'll mostly likely have a gun. And a truck. So I'm definitely gonna run over people who dare try and get robbed or jumped
That’s why really it is not suggestible to drive at night if you can help it. If you must drive in the middle of nowhere, try to at least do it during daylight. And always have some kind of protection. This world is too crazy not to.
Hey man- I know you get tons of comments like these, but thank you for the level headed compilations with explanations. These have been the best compilation videos I've seen in years, solely because there's backstory & info on the aftermath. Thank you, and I hope you are staying safe, as well!
The clip about the wildfire had me holding my breath, I truly was terrified for them. Firefighters are the bravest people in our society. The fear of knowing everyday you are facing the worst possible way one can die is really something, there really isn't words to express how lucky we are to have men and women in this world who are willing to do this job.
I’m a wildland firefighter and I’ve talked to some of my brothers who were in an inferno like that….. they said it was as close to hell they wanted to get! 😢😢
I'm not a firefighter but my father and grandfathers before me were and the stories they told me with theer time in the force were truly teriffying. I have all the respect for firefighters in the world
I’m glad those drivers got away from those lazy jerks who tried to steal their vehicles. Man, I was literally shaking just watching these clips. So happy those firefighters made it out as well. Glad those that were found safe in their accidents. I hope the others were as well. Your voice added to the scariness of them, too. You do a great job. I’m subscribing!!!
@r33mote exactly what about a man with an american accent saying “it’s the cartel” makes you think that it was in France??(also all the signs are in Spanish)
It's so weird how these drivers are scared of someone walking towards their car. Like, bruh, you're in a car. Run them over. Turn them into road paste.
most people don't want to intentionally injure/kill another human regardless of the actual danger of the situation. It takes a lot psychologically to do that (similar to the concept of stopping shootings with "a good guy with a gun" - it does a lot to the psyche to pull a trigger knowing it's going to kill/maim another individual)
I get the apprehension that the person may have a gun, but yes, booking it tf out as promptly as possible is the best solution. Bonus points if you hit the creep.
I've lived in Australia and driven through bushfires, and watching that footage really gave me severe anxiety. I didn't realize I was holding my breath until the ending, when they all got out onto that clear road.
There’s footage of our rural guys hunkering down in their truck with the sprinkler protection deployed when they became overrun. Later in the vid they pass a similar truck that didn’t make it, completely burnt out.
I was JUST going to comment on the horrific video I saw of the Australian trucks using sprinklers and the one fails but with the other truck full of people they had no option but to sit and die unfortunately smh. Craziest thing was the Australian rd was fairly clear, unlike this one where the trees were right up on the road. Perfect example of the tremendous heat created within a firestorm, don't be fooled into thinking just because a paved road has nothing to burn you'll be safe just sitting there waiting a fire out
@@danielbradley5255 I remember the Australian fires happening at the same time as our horrendous California fires. The heat is so intense but driving thru the fire is sometimes the only option. 🥺 So grateful these guys/gals made it out safely! 💗
As my father was almost sent to California to help fight fires around this time, this was really a scary thing to see. Im really glad to see them all get out safely and to know that my dad was willing to help fellow firefighters go through something like that.
I think I would as well. I'd do whatever it takes to protect myself, even if it means I'd have to run them over in order to prevent them from reaching me. Afterall It's their own fault for putting themselves in that situation.
Great job. You give sensible, simple, non-drama explanations then let the video play. That's how you do it. Many need to learn this. Good clips too. 10/10
And he probably made zero $$$. You can put in work creating these compilation videos and someone filing a copyright claim will take every penny of your revenue. You have to make your content "original" enough by adding some value besides just stealing other peoples clips(and rightfully so).
@@bennypit4411 stealing? Stealing involves you having something and me depriving you of that thing. People engaged in copyright infringement do no such thing.
Ive watched a lot of these scary videos, but the firefighters getting trapped in the fire was easily one of the scariest things ive seen so far in my life. Cant imagine what they felt and how they got out
Props to that first driver. Made some impressive tactical maneuvers to get around those cartel thugs and handled that situation about as well as one possibly could. Also props to his incredibly stoic wife. He nervously exclaims, "Holy shit. It's the cartel." and she just casually responds with a nonchalant, "yep." Most people would be freaking out in that scenario (for good reason).
The driving skills of the first clip were awesome. He stayed so damn calm during the whole situation too. Mad props! Also the firefighters with balls of steel was incredible to watch, that was some quick thinking under insane pressure to escape an inferno of death.
Kinda, that guy had so many opportunities to get out of there sooner. Also, as soon as I saw that shit I would of gone full stop until they moved or came towards me.
@@crashmandude Oh come on. Easy for you to say watching it on video without the fear of the moment. Driver did a great job and you can quit trying to sound like a badass..
@@oldageisdumb I meant full reverse. And you don't have to be a badass to do that. Lol Or jump the curb to the left when it was wide open. Watch the video again, he has so many opertunities to get out of there and he BARELY made it through that gap. I will give it to him that he was smart enough to juke the car he did get around. I still stand by my statement though. Very poor situational awareness. Mexico, on the border, late at night, with two cars blocking the road? Yeah, I would've noped outta that real quick. Maybe I just watch too much TV. But I would figure that might set alarm bells of for anyone.
@@crashmandude I’m just saying it’s very easy for you to go back and analyze the video and pick apart what you would or would not have done differently. I don’t doubt you are right, but the point is I think it’s pretty clear you’ve never been in a terrifying situation like that before as you seem to be under the impression that you are able to think clearly and calmly. If you had been in a situation like that, you would realize the driver did a great job under duress. So quit judging him in hindsight and be thankful you e had it pretty easy.
What disturbs me is how completely different most of these scenarios are, but the people only had seconds to react. These situations could happen to anyone and not knowing what to do and figuring it out in the few seconds you have can mean life or death
Damn that first clip is the first time I've been genuinely unsettled from these 'disturbing' dashcam scares. Everything about that car jacking setup was strategically executed. Only thing missing out of that equation was weapons drawn or any gunpoint action.
That fireman's dashcam was by far the scariest, you can drive through would be car jackers, but seeing walls of fire all around you and hearing that there's no way forward or back I will say that my heart sunk.
Imagine how painful it would be to recognize your own car as being driven into by someone because it had been stolen a few days ago and now it's getting messed up...
RE: James’ accident in San Gabriel Mountains. Yes, he was foolishly going way too fast and is one lucky speedster that his car was the only thing damaged! However, even someone doing the speed limit could be blind sided when coming out into bright daylight from a dark tunnel. That tunnel needs to have some sort of warning sign to let all drivers know that there is a curve to the left as you come through that second tunnel. I’m glad he was safe.
I felt so scared for James seeing this video. Im so happy he walked away safe. Imagine the terror of this - literally combination of 2 phobias (heights and car crashes).
Watching these makes me relive my ptsd, I almost got put in jail as an 18yo in Mexico for running over 2 attempted kidnappers with glocks. Was my first reaction. They lived unfortunately. Seeing car jacking and al this kinda shit just brings me back to what I would have done different or what the outcome could have been if I had froze and let them open my doors. Thankful for everyone’s safety.
you did right, I would have done the exact same thing as a first reaction, it was either them or you and always choose you. nothing to be ashamed or worrying over, they should have chose to be normal decent people. power to you 💪🏼
That second one was hilarious. “James didn’t know there was a sharp turn after the tunnel“ so he just hauled ass without knowing what was in front of him. 😂😂😂
Yeah the explanation is pure bullshit....he was hotdogging and attempting to do drifts around the corner after exiting the tunnel, even had his friends there to film it, one is by the tunnel exit with the camera and waving at him (how did they know he was coming and why be filming?) at 2:41 not to mention he makes NO attempt to brake in that skid or he would have been fine....his engine keeps revving and he powerslides right off the edge of the mountain....was his own fault and he lies about being on a joyride and just wanting to hear the sound of his engine in the tunnel which is why he claimed to speed up? Pure bullshit lies.
@@bbc6 It's not the cars fault. The guys from California. Those are the worst drivers in the world. He could have been going way faster and still made that turn. Lol
@@Kilian600 that's right. But the guys on the motorcycles (I saw two) were really in trouble! Just the storm itself was dangerous to them.. but the powerlines could kill them really fast.
I remember back in a wicked bad ice storm we had in upstate NY,I was doing generator service calls and stopped on a road within eyesight of the Hudson river in the Cold Spring area to catch up on a little paperwork and some phone calls. All I could see on the other side of the river were these blue flashes,for as far as you could see for either way north to south. It was as if I was on a stage and the balcony seats were taking pictures. Totally random and pretty much non stop for as long as I was there. Insane,I've never seen anything like it.
@@Kilian600 The car can, however, catch fire if it drives over downed power lines. So even though you are protected from the current inside, you can still die from a fire. It has happened before.
12:15 idk why but everytime I see that plane go by my mind is like "neeeoouumm" Edit: ik it's serious but my humor is messed up I can't help but laugh at that part
Thank you so much for putting together these compilations. Love your narration and the way you let the content speak for itself. I'm subbed to a lot of horror channels, but this one by far shows truly horrifying content. I hope I NEVER find myself in these situations.
5.18…Having had my late uncle be the captain of a fire station here in the UK after 30 years of service to the British fire service, I can only say how courageous all our fire and rescue services are. I’ve been in a building on fire, it’s terrifying and I’d personally like to thank them for their continued bravery and service. I don’t know how I could risk my life among fire on a day to day basis.🙏🇬🇧
I was trapped on a second floor of an old house and you are right it's terrifying. I've been in 5 fires 3 of them I was asleep but i woke up every time. Twice I could had died easily and another time my neighbor in a USAF barracks set his mattress on fire drunk smoking in bed. He was very lucky I woke up.
@@anthonyfoutch3152 One of my distant cousins that I actually never met, got tangled up his teens with a neighbourhood gang in London’s east end. The gang and it’s youthful members were known for their fearful and ruthless shenanigans. After a short time with the street gang my cousin decided he would start a fire in his own family home to stop his family from interfering and telling him it was unsafe and unhealthy to have friends like this. But no he ignored everyone and decided to place a lit petrol soaked cloth through the front door letter box. The fire in an old building like that took hold in seconds. Not all the family were able to escape. His younger sister perished in the fire, trapped upstairs in her bedroom, while his younger brother was eventually rescued but left with permanent irreparable life changing injuries. Hi parents were ok but it was no consolation to losing their only daughter aged just 9 years old. My cousin was sentenced to a ‘life term’ in a psychiatric facility where he spent the next ten years of his life before committing suicide seven years ago due to the immense guilt for what pain he’d caused his family. We never truly know from which direction the paths of our lives are going to take us. I just pray however that whatever I’ve chosen to do, it is right, but without harming others. Although should myself or anyone else become endangered they have the trust and respect other people to aid them when necessary.
I’ve often lamented the fact that here in the US, so much attention, praise & entitlement is given to & assumed by law enforcement, that when they die on duty, the depts will shut down streets & even highways, for the procession to the funeral. But, that never happens for fire fighters. They seem to be ignored by the media. They are brave men & women, much more brave than cops, imo. And yet, they’re not running around espousing being in fear of their lives, wanting to “make it home to their families” all the time. They’re not trying to force everyone to respect them for THEIR CHOICE of careers. I wish fire fighters got more credit for what they do & the unassuming way they do it. Real heroes.
@@novice5895 In the UK we seem to have a lower level of outpouring when a fireman dies too. You’ll see the crews that cover that station do a procession and go to the funeral but that’s it. And it’s not uncommon for them to abandon the funeral if there’s a sudden emergency shout. I recall my aunt saying my uncle was always at his most quiet after a shout where children had died. It’s only in recent years that firemen and police officers are offered counselling after distressing situations at work. I know there’s no way on earth I could mentally handle seeing a child die and then have to bring out their remains. Back in 2012 when that heinous man mick philpott (his name doesn’t deserve capital letters) deliberately set his house on fire in Derby UK and ended up killing all six of his kids was a dark day for all our firemen, the whole of our country for that matter. If my uncle had been alive I don’t know how he would have reacted to that. I know my aunt was deeply disturbed and it played on her mind for a long time. It was a sickening act and all the fire crews were offered counselling afterwards. I know it’s bad enough for anyone to die in a fire, but small children?? Given life just to have it taken away in such a horrific way.
Just wanted to say, I really appreciate how you describe each video. It *really* helps on the days where my vision isn't so great due to visual migraines.
@@WvlfDarkfire Oh, I don't *watch* videos when I have them. That's why I love descriptive audio on videos! Audio has no effect on my visual migraines, so when I'm suffering and half blind, I can listen to videos like this until I feel better.
I've seen many UA-cam videos of dash cam channels, but this one is the best. You explain things as the scenario unfolds. Another thrillingly scary set of videos. Thanks for posting
For me there is one very annoying thing: he keeps replaying the same video to say something you can see in the video instead of letting you watch the damn thing
The video of the fire was absolute insanity. Those guys being off road & trying to get back on the road before they were engulfed in flames.. you will never be closer to death than that. The grim reaper swung his scythe & gave them a haircut.
Seen closer. Truck overrun by the fire but had a sprinkler self protection system, guys survived but another truck didn’t. Another one after the initial front went over the truck had caught fire so had to be abandoned, they had to don their gear and grab the guys from another disabled truck. Rescue expected to find 8 bodies. Instead they found 8 guys walking out of the zone in full gear. Luck sobs. Search burnover Australia.
@@savagecatzzz where do you assholes come from? Do you just appear out of thin air to satisfy your desire to argue? You're asking a question that cannot be quantitavely measured because the likelihood that those firefighters would survive, had they not escaped in that moment, is probably around 0%.
So satisfying seeing that pick up truck plow right through those criminals on the bridge. And the next thing I know I’m doing a take two to see if I really just saw that airplane.
That second guy nearly died because he wanted his car to sound cool, lol, think about that. I'm glad he's okay though but it just reminds you of how little mistakes can easily snowball into large consequences.
I literally HATE people who drive "fart cars" or loud motorcycles and I'm not proud to say it, but I honestly wish he had died. 🙂 Dickheads like that driving around residential neighborhoods making everyone else listen to their sh*tty ass cars because they think they're so cool. It honestly feels like assault at some point and they never face any consequences for it. Humanity can do better than him. Maybe he'll figure his sh*t out one day and be more conscientious of his fellow human beings, but it seems unlikely.
These have got to be my favorite scary videos. I get so tired of seeing paranormal crap all over and see this as a terrifying breath of fresh air. I’m so glad everyone featured is alright.
@@666_ezio Of course he does, they had no reason to be there. False flag operations create the support of the public, rack in trillions, and get thousands to go to war. Because how else are you gonna justify doing that? False flag Ops such as 911. They stole tons of natural resources such as oil,minerals, the poppy fields that are native to Iraq/ Afghan. If you haven’t seen already, there’s literally videos of marines running over innocent people in their Humvees.. for absolutely no reason
That pickup truck plowing its way through that car that was trying to force it to stop (in Chili) was pretty awesome. The defensive maneuvers the guy did to get away from the cartel that was blocking the road (in Mexico) was pretty awesome too. Those might be my favorite clips in this video. They were awesome clips and they also told me that I won't be in any hurry to go to either Chili or Mexico. My vacations will be right here in the good old USA. The guy driving his car into a nearby field to get away from falling power lines was also a great clip.
@@greygoose6531 ..ridiculous argument, so are the citizens of other countries too. The USA is the 56th most dangerous country in the world (there are 195 countries in the world, so it's pretty much up there). Even Russia, Panama, Ghana, India, Philipines and China are rated safer.
@@edombre4637 are you serious?😂😂😂 Well like I said, at least out here, we know what towns to fuck with and what towns not to fuck with. Like I would not be a white bitch, going into Mexico in the middle of the night. Hell, I'm in Chicago and know there are certain times not to be out.
@@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113 das hast du aber nett geschrieben. Du hast vergessen alle møglichen Drogen von A bis Z auf zu schreiben (und Deine Lieblingsdrogen)
when i was about 4 i went on a trip to my home country, which is home to some of the largest mountains in the world, meaning a lot of roads go through the mountains. we just arrived and were driving back from the airport where me and my twin had to witness a truck dangle from the mountain while the men inside were screaming. there were so many people attempting to get them out and i still don't know what happened after. needless to say, im deathly afraid of mountains now 😭
3:58 Is a good example of why situational awareness is so important. Whenever I drive or is just out and about I always keep my eyes and ears open because you just don’t know when shit will hit the fan in the worst possible way.
1:00 - Had the same thing happen in Mexico back in the mid-1990s. Driving down a straight ass two lane road in the middle of F*ing _NOWHERE_ (crossing the Guerrero Negro) at like midnight. Saw two pickups on either side of the road and like eight dudes standing in the road with a wooden barrier thing (I assume was attached to one of the trucks). The Mexican in the car said 'Go, go, GO! Banditos!'... so I went. I was already doing 70 across a black desert in the middle of the night and I guess they heard the engine racing because the dudes jumped out of the road and I blew through their impromptu roadblock doing over 100 sending their little wooden stick probably a quarter mile down the road in pieces. On that straight ass road their pickups never would've caught the old beater I was driving so they didn't bother.
That must have been so scary...although I must admit that your comment made me laugh. I just imagine the bad guys running for their lives. I can also imagine their road block flying through the air like a bunch of little wooden matches.
3:06 this is actually one of my greatest fears, this whenever I see roads like this in movies and such I will always think about “what happens if someone drives off the edge” the thought terrify’s me
You are killing this series, please keep the creep dash cam videos going, great content! I’m super depressed rn and ur videos really help keep my mind off everything. Ty 🥤🙏
The one where they’re driving threw the flames with those other vehicles is absolutely intense and frightening and listening on the radio is absolutely scary not knowing if you could’ve helped or what.
#1 is why you never, ever, *ever* leave you doors unlocked or your windows down. The fact that some people still do that shocks me. Luckily this man knew better.
Really love the 8 things that have been caught on camera as it is curious to see what suspicious people that carry out an road trap to steal cars and natural disasters caused on camera is quite disturbing to watch
That guy holding a “metal object” running towards the car in front of him would’ve met head on the back of my car as I would’ve floored it backing up. 3:58
You have one of the most comforting, calm and reassuring voices I've ever heard. I love it. PLEASE NEVER stop nmaking these videos, you are a NATURAL!!!
Man, the wildfire one hit home. I lived in Portugal a few years back where there some major fires and we lived like 5/10mins from where it stopped and by the road where the drone footage of all those dead people was. The fear level was insane. Like, if you're not in the fire, it still rains burning embers and you're surrounded by eucalyptus trees and uncle are land with no safe way out. You're awake for hours and hours trying to use your limited water supply to wet the ground and flipping out as to which animals you might just have to kill on the spot and which ones can be set free to risk it on their own, with a kid stuck in the house monitoring to radio for updates. Fuck. Me. That was no fun.
Admittedly it is incredibly stupid to drive at high speed when you can't see what's ahead of you but that sharp turn after the tunnel really should have been signposted. One would expect warning signs well in advance of a turn like that. We take so much for granted.
I thought the same - here in the UK there would be red triangle warning signs in advance and huge chevrons on the bend. There may have been signposts here but I couldn't see any on the video, driven the speed, the dark of the tunnels and the glare of the sun between them.
@@vicstick75 Exactly. Most countries have mandatory warning signs telling you to slow down well in advance of sharp turns - especially on a highway - along with those black and white striped roadside barriers that are international code for "sharp turn ahead: decelerate into turn, accelerate coming out" but in a place as litigious as California that's a lawsuit waiting to happen, probable negligence, and a class action assuming other drivers have come to grief in the same place.
@@vicstick75 the thing is that it didn't even look that sharp, like it was practically gentle, and the only reason this guy lost control is because he was speeding WAY too fast and panicked and overcorrected. it's not the road or the curve or the lack of signage that's the problem, it's literally just him.
@@vicstick75 idk about california specifically but where i am in the us we also have reflective chevrons on sharp bends. the fact that this one doesn't means that it generally doesn't warrant one. this guy is just an idiot.
Because of the video at 11:24 I want a big ass powerful pick up truck even more! I don't live in a big city, but I go to them from time to time and you just never know when some sketchy shit is gonna go down.
My brother lives in California. Once a year - for the past 20+ years - he and his buddies go camping for a week up in the mountains; usually the same campground. So they call ahead and the Forest Service said that the fire wouldn't reach the campgrounds and it was alright to camp. Well, they get to the campground and were met by the Forest Service yelling at them to "Get the f*ck out!! Fire's changed course and is heading this way!!!" Both trucks turned around and were high tailing it off the mountain. He sent me a video of them out running the fire. It was insane. The flames were literally right behind them, everyone's screaming "faster!!!" Everyone made it out alright, but, damn.
I think I’m gonna get a bumper stinker that says “if you’re standing in the middle of the road I will run over at full speed unless you’re just a pedestrian walking across the street!” Lmao
Cautious drivers don't have to run anyone over. You can see them a block away just GO AROUND. If you can't go around TURN AROUND. People are crazy, "i would rather die than drive the wrong way on an abandoned road." STOP GETTING CLOSER TO MURDERERS WTF
Good on the first guy for staying calm and getting out of there
But why did he say it was a cartel?
Bad on him for not crushing or shooting any of those fucks. People don't start fighting back they won't go away.
@don't be surprised ah yes I too want to know how to make air fryer potato wedges
@@sheiladesnoo8649 because those are the only ppl who can set up road blocks! The cartel controls everything including the cops! They where so comfortable cus they knew the cops wouldnt do a damn thing. It doesnt take a genius to figure it out.
He should have floored it and made the white hoodie shit running after him a statistic tbh by swerving left and hitting him.
I LOVE that the person who was trapped on the bridge and the people with guns started coming toward them, that they just stepped on the gas and pushed that car with them. YES! Hit that fucking car! Get the hell out of there!
Well I mean shoot, I would be hard pressed to choose death over pushing a car out of the way
Yeah that was sweet. I was hoping he would have pushed the car off the bridge though
Yeah, that was awesome 👏 I was cheering him on! 💃🏼💃🏼
Much to be said for 8 cyl pickups!
@@BeagleBageler Some people freeze up instead of "fight or flight" and if that one perp truly brandished a gun it takes 30 seconds of "freezing" to end deadly. This is why they say panic can kill you don't truly know how you'll respond unless you've got nerves of steel.

@@ninjagamer7777 😂 okay Hun. Have a great holy night- you’re friendly neighborhood trans man ❤️
Hearing the one fire fighter, “hey josh help! I’m down I’m down! Let me in let me in!” Made my heart drop, so glad they were all okay.
Yeah burning alive is NO way to go.
I know that made me so sad
That must of been extremely terrifying being surrounded by fire..
Instant heart chills heating that could not imagine been in that situation
I could only imagine it's amazing any of those vehicles could run efficiently enough to do some serious 4x4ing while injecting that much smoke into the system. A lot of those guy (and women I know and have a female friend that was wild land firefighters) go in on foot. Imagine that but being on foot and 5-10 miles from a vehicle. It's an extremely under appreciated job profession.
Hearing James's panicked voice as he drove over the cliff was heart wrenching. I'm so glad he's okay. Don't be stupid on the roads! One mistake can cost you everything!
Stupid is as stupid does.
Yes! That gasp made my heart drop !
Stupidity gets punished. He can be lucky that he survived.
+ there was also a lack of road signs to signal the sharp turn. given that there was a tiny one on the entrance of the tunnels, it still didn't give enough warning to drivers.
Dude was a moron. I'm guessing he was looking at his phone.
The firefighters driving through the wildfire and slowly becoming trapped was one of the scariest things I’ve ever watched. It’s not easy to make decisions like that to just plow forward through the flames when you’re completely unsure if you’re driving to your death. The moment they hit that clearing i realized I was holding my breath haha
Imagine that being your oldest "kid" driving the truck.
Just before my oldest got hired on as a career firefighter, our county lost a Chief who had volunteered in the California wild fires. It's just something that never leaves your memory. Nature is just so unpredictable.
Rest in peace Chief. 😔💔
I just came here to say the exact same thing. I've watched countless scary videos but that one was the scariest.

I was holding my breath because I didn't want to breathe any smoke. That's how immersive that shit was!
Guys, I can't stress this enough, if you are ever the passenger in a stressful situation like many of these clips, do everything you can to be supportive to the driver. Don't back seat drive, don't yell at them, don't panic, just tell them they got this, they are doing great, you're going to make it, etc etc. It might literally save your life.
Absolutely 💯agree
ABSOLUTELY WRONG
The two need to communicate productively. Working together as a team.. if you have 2 brains available USE THEM (you should try it)
Not..... "awww you're doing so good! Gooood boy!! Come come buddy, you got this... it doesn't matter were both about to drive off a cliff - let me talk nice to you, like a toddler.. don't want to hurt anybody's feelings when we're about to die
Bro u some form of manchild? Your driver doesn't need coddling, he needs you to be extra eyes and ears!
@@brandoballer47 Yeah, no shit. But when the person driving is a competent driver and the solution to whatever problem has presented itself is obvious, telling them what to do is only going to stress them out more. You don't talk to them like a toddler, you talk to them like a boxing coach, ring side, cheering them on and building their confidence so there is zero hesitation when every fraction of a second can mean life or death. If they need directing or want your opinion, they'd ask for it. Try telling me what I need to do in that situation and I'd purposely drive of a fcuking cliff just to spite you.
What if they are doing wrong? You can’t tell them that?😂
The fire one got me. I was absolutely terrified, especially hearing the other people on the radio begging for help and how the guys in the truck calmly said “I think we lost some people dude” horrifying
Exactly, I was holding my breath 😨
Had an old roommate of mine that was a firefighter and sadly the wildfire got him and two of his coworkers back in 2015, similar situation, flames encircled them and they were fucked
Guy was in his mid 20s
Bad way to go. Really bad. RIP
Now they got a story to tell😂
I don't think he was calm at all
Dashcams and doorbell cameras have really shown the world how horrifying the world and people are.
Seen one of a home invasion, owner tries shooting back, 3 robbers fire back and kill him before fleeing.
that's facts, there are lots of crazy, evil, and lazy people out there, and i just think, imagine how it'd be if the world were to fall into a apoc, too many bad people
out there.
They've also shown a lot of acts of kindness.
Sadly nothing happens to the people who commit these crimes.
@@chasemoneyfateLink?
The footage of the fire and those firefighters is absolutely nuts! Those firefighters are fucking insane for keeping as calm as they did! And it's amazing they completely contained the fire a little later down the line, that was huge!
they were scared shitless stfu
In Australia that’s called a burn over. Fire trucks will spray water on themselves and those inside cover the windows. It seems the people in this video didn’t know what to do in the situation (although it didn’t look like all the vehicles had water)
I have sadly been in this situation before. You can drive over a burning road if you commit and go fast.

The fact there's so many videos of people getting robbed or held up in the middle of nowhere is legitimately terrifying. Like I have a lot of fears, but I have a deep primal fear of getting robbed in the middle of night all alone
As someone who is about to start driving I'm also terrified. But agian. I'll mostly likely have a gun. And a truck. So I'm definitely gonna run over people who dare try and get robbed or jumped
@@hellOfADemonKink Hell ya..
@Potatus dang.
Stay strapped
That’s why really it is not suggestible to drive at night if you can help it. If you must drive in the middle of nowhere, try to at least do it during daylight. And always have some kind of protection. This world is too crazy not to.
Hey man- I know you get tons of comments like these, but thank you for the level headed compilations with explanations. These have been the best compilation videos I've seen in years, solely because there's backstory & info on the aftermath. Thank you, and I hope you are staying safe, as well!
The clip about the wildfire had me holding my breath, I truly was terrified for them. Firefighters are the bravest people in our society. The fear of knowing everyday you are facing the worst possible way one can die is really something, there really isn't words to express how lucky we are to have men and women in this world who are willing to do this job.
I’m a wildland firefighter and I’ve talked to some of my brothers who were in an inferno like that….. they said it was as close to hell they wanted to get! 😢😢
❤
I'm late but it scared me alot.
I'm not a firefighter but my father and grandfathers before me were and the stories they told me with theer time in the force were truly teriffying. I have all the respect for firefighters in the world
I’m glad those drivers got away from those lazy jerks who tried to steal their vehicles. Man, I was literally shaking just watching these clips. So happy those firefighters made it out as well. Glad those that were found safe in their accidents. I hope the others were as well. Your voice added to the scariness of them, too. You do a great job. I’m subscribing!!!

11:02 bro said “hold up, im in a semi truck” 😂
In a matchup between truck and almost anything, the rig will win.
I want to know what car is the guy driving. They got a client. :))
It's so weird how these drivers are scared of someone walking towards their car. Like, bruh, you're in a car. Run them over. Turn them into road paste.
it’s harder than that. in that instance i would be confused more than in fear. But yeah i see you could have just ran over them.
most people don't want to intentionally injure/kill another human regardless of the actual danger of the situation. It takes a lot psychologically to do that (similar to the concept of stopping shootings with "a good guy with a gun" - it does a lot to the psyche to pull a trigger knowing it's going to kill/maim another individual)
@@seanscott2677 i dont get it. What is stopping you from doing so, when you know you wont get in trouble because it was self defence
You obviously did not see the six vehicles in the way, pay better attention.
I get the apprehension that the person may have a gun, but yes, booking it tf out as promptly as possible is the best solution. Bonus points if you hit the creep.
The driver of the Mercedes was clearly a mechanic who had noticed one of the wheel bolts was a bit loose so wanted to tighten it up 🔧
Only logical explanation. Like who would attempt a robbery in that super busy area?

I've lived in Australia and driven through bushfires, and watching that footage really gave me severe anxiety. I didn't realize I was holding my breath until the ending, when they all got out onto that clear road.
There’s footage of our rural guys hunkering down in their truck with the sprinkler protection deployed when they became overrun. Later in the vid they pass a similar truck that didn’t make it, completely burnt out.
I was JUST going to comment on the horrific video I saw of the Australian trucks using sprinklers and the one fails but with the other truck full of people they had no option but to sit and die unfortunately smh. Craziest thing was the Australian rd was fairly clear, unlike this one where the trees were right up on the road. Perfect example of the tremendous heat created within a firestorm, don't be fooled into thinking just because a paved road has nothing to burn you'll be safe just sitting there waiting a fire out
@@danielbradley5255 I remember the Australian fires happening at the same time as our horrendous California fires. The heat is so intense but driving thru the fire is sometimes the only option. 🥺 So grateful these guys/gals made it out safely! 💗

@@ML-kq4iw No we weren't what?
As my father was almost sent to California to help fight fires around this time, this was really a scary thing to see. Im really glad to see them all get out safely and to know that my dad was willing to help fellow firefighters go through something like that.
That first guy is a much nicer man than me. Id be running over everyone i could
I think I would as well. I'd do whatever it takes to protect myself, even if it means I'd have to run them over in order to prevent them from reaching me. Afterall It's their own fault for putting themselves in that situation.

It made my heart race watching it
That is the point you start praying to whatever god you believe in or you just wish to make it out of there.
Fires like that are insane.
Props to that first driver. Made some impressive tactical maneuvers to get around those cartel thugs and handled that situation about as well as one possibly could. Also props to his incredibly stoic wife. He nervously exclaims, "Holy shit. It's the cartel." and she just casually responds with a nonchalant, "yep." Most people would be freaking out in that scenario (for good reason).
The driving skills of the first clip were awesome. He stayed so damn calm during the whole situation too. Mad props! Also the firefighters with balls of steel was incredible to watch, that was some quick thinking under insane pressure to escape an inferno of death.
Kinda, that guy had so many opportunities to get out of there sooner. Also, as soon as I saw that shit I would of gone full stop until they moved or came towards me.
@@crashmandude Oh come on. Easy for you to say watching it on video without the fear of the moment. Driver did a great job and you can quit trying to sound like a badass..
@@oldageisdumb I meant full reverse. And you don't have to be a badass to do that. Lol Or jump the curb to the left when it was wide open.
Watch the video again, he has so many opertunities to get out of there and he BARELY made it through that gap. I will give it to him that he was smart enough to juke the car he did get around.
I still stand by my statement though. Very poor situational awareness.

Yeah, I would've noped outta that real quick.

@@crashmandude I’m just saying it’s very easy for you to go back and analyze the video and pick apart what you would or would not have done differently. I don’t doubt you are right, but the point is I think it’s pretty clear you’ve never been in a terrifying situation like that before as you seem to be under the impression that you are able to think clearly and calmly. If you had been in a situation like that, you would realize the driver did a great job under duress. So quit judging him in hindsight and be thankful you e had it pretty easy.
What disturbs me is how completely different most of these scenarios are, but the people only had seconds to react. These situations could happen to anyone and not knowing what to do and figuring it out in the few seconds you have can mean life or death
Damn that first clip is the first time I've been genuinely unsettled from these 'disturbing' dashcam scares. Everything about that car jacking setup was strategically executed. Only thing missing out of that equation was weapons drawn or any gunpoint action.
So incredibly scary. He handled it like a pro.

RE: James’ accident in San Gabriel Mountains. Yes, he was foolishly going way too fast and is one lucky speedster that his car was the only thing damaged! However, even someone doing the speed limit could be blind sided when coming out into bright daylight from a dark tunnel. That tunnel needs to have some sort of warning sign to let all drivers know that there is a curve to the left as you come through that second tunnel. I’m glad he was safe.
He definitely would’ve been fine on that turn if he was slowed, it was blinding on the camera but in real life would’ve been able to see that turn
If you look carefully, there was a warning sign above the entrance of the second tunnel, but easily missed by someone speeding.
@@PeppermintPlatypus thats a height sign
I felt so scared for James seeing this video. Im so happy he walked away safe. Imagine the terror of this - literally combination of 2 phobias (heights and car crashes).
They should build barriers on that side of the mountain. I’m surprised at how there’s no protection, at all
Watching these makes me relive my ptsd, I almost got put in jail as an 18yo in Mexico for running over 2 attempted kidnappers with glocks. Was my first reaction. They lived unfortunately. Seeing car jacking and al this kinda shit just brings me back to what I would have done different or what the outcome could have been if I had froze and let them open my doors. Thankful for everyone’s safety.
you did right, I would have done the exact same thing as a first reaction, it was either them or you and always choose you. nothing to be ashamed or worrying over, they should have chose to be normal decent people. power to you 💪🏼
That second one was hilarious. “James didn’t know there was a sharp turn after the tunnel“ so he just hauled ass without knowing what was in front of him. 😂😂😂
Lots of stupid people out there!
James didn't know he was a poor driver... James is also an idiot.
Yeah the explanation is pure bullshit....he was hotdogging and attempting to do drifts around the corner after exiting the tunnel, even had his friends there to film it, one is by the tunnel exit with the camera and waving at him (how did they know he was coming and why be filming?) at 2:41 not to mention he makes NO attempt to brake in that skid or he would have been fine....his engine keeps revving and he powerslides right off the edge of the mountain....was his own fault and he lies about being on a joyride and just wanting to hear the sound of his engine in the tunnel which is why he claimed to speed up? Pure bullshit lies.

One of my distant cousins that I actually never met, got tangled up his teens with a neighbourhood gang in London’s east end. The gang and it’s youthful members were known for their fearful and ruthless shenanigans. After a short time with the street gang my cousin decided he would start a fire in his own family home to stop his family from interfering and telling him it was unsafe and unhealthy to have friends like this. But no he ignored everyone and decided to place a lit petrol soaked cloth through the front door letter box. The fire in an old building like that took hold in seconds. Not all the family were able to escape. His younger sister perished in the fire, trapped upstairs in her bedroom, while his younger brother was eventually rescued but left with permanent irreparable life changing injuries. Hi parents were ok but it was no consolation to losing their only daughter aged just 9 years old. My cousin was sentenced to a ‘life term’ in a psychiatric facility where he spent the next ten years of his life before committing suicide seven years ago due to the immense guilt for what pain he’d caused his family.
We never truly know from which direction the paths of our lives are going to take us. I just pray however that whatever I’ve chosen to do, it is right, but without harming others. Although should myself or anyone else become endangered they have the trust and respect other people to aid them when necessary.
I’ve often lamented the fact that here in the US, so much attention, praise & entitlement is given to & assumed by law enforcement, that when they die on duty, the depts will shut down streets & even highways, for the procession to the funeral. But, that never happens for fire fighters. They seem to be ignored by the media. They are brave men & women, much more brave than cops, imo. And yet, they’re not running around espousing being in fear of their lives, wanting to “make it home to their families” all the time. They’re not trying to force everyone to respect them for THEIR CHOICE of careers. I wish fire fighters got more credit for what they do & the unassuming way they do it. Real heroes.
@@novice5895 truck drivers have a more dangerous job. In 2019 8 fire fighters died on the job, 86 cops died and 1005 truck drivers died.

In the UK we seem to have a lower level of outpouring when a fireman dies too. You’ll see the crews that cover that station do a procession and go to the funeral but that’s it. And it’s not uncommon for them to abandon the funeral if there’s a sudden emergency shout. I recall my aunt saying my uncle was always at his most quiet after a shout where children had died. It’s only in recent years that firemen and police officers are offered counselling after distressing situations at work. I know there’s no way on earth I could mentally handle seeing a child die and then have to bring out their remains.
Back in 2012 when that heinous man mick philpott (his name doesn’t deserve capital letters) deliberately set his house on fire in Derby UK and ended up killing all six of his kids was a dark day for all our firemen, the whole of our country for that matter. If my uncle had been alive I don’t know how he would have reacted to that. I know my aunt was deeply disturbed and it played on her mind for a long time. It was a sickening act and all the fire crews were offered counselling afterwards. I know it’s bad enough for anyone to die in a fire, but small children?? Given life just to have it taken away in such a horrific way.
That firefighter deserves a medal. Remaining calm will keep you alive in many situations.
Just wanted to say, I really appreciate how you describe each video. It *really* helps on the days where my vision isn't so great due to visual migraines.
Damn that sucks im sorry for that. I didnt know that was a thing.
@@oddfuture7916 Thanks for your concern! It's like trying to see with eyes full of broken glass!
I hope you find relief from your migraines.
You do realize that lights and screens and sounds can cause or worsen a migraine? May I suggest a dark cave with no electronics?
@@WvlfDarkfire Oh, I don't *watch* videos when I have them. That's why I love descriptive audio on videos! Audio has no effect on my visual migraines, so when I'm suffering and half blind, I can listen to videos like this until I feel better.
9:11 I saw that water droplet and thought it was an ostrich crossing the road and I was like wtf
I don't see it bro 😐
That fire footage was scary as hell! Glad those guys made it out. Can't imagine the anxiety level in that cab at the time.
The firefighter saying ''we might have lost some people'' is just sad af. I'm glad they all made it out of that fire.
Right! My heart dropped when he said that. I was so glad to hear all of them miraculously lived through that.
I've seen many UA-cam videos of dash cam channels, but this one is the best. You explain things as the scenario unfolds.
Another thrillingly scary set of videos. Thanks for posting
@Amaan Storm I agree, I really appreciate the explanation and outcome. Great video!👍
For me there is one very annoying thing: he keeps replaying the same video to say something you can see in the video instead of letting you watch the damn thing
@@BEN-ys6gu I can understand how that would be annoying to some, I have problems staying focused so I really appreciate the instant replays 😉

@@monjiaguizani5419it’s a vibe
The video of the fire was absolute insanity. Those guys being off road & trying to get back on the road before they were engulfed in flames.. you will never be closer to death than that. The grim reaper swung his scythe & gave them a haircut.
That was as close as it gets.
Seen closer. Truck overrun by the fire but had a sprinkler self protection system, guys survived but another truck didn’t. Another one after the initial front went over the truck had caught fire so had to be abandoned, they had to don their gear and grab the guys from another disabled truck. Rescue expected to find 8 bodies. Instead they found 8 guys walking out of the zone in full gear. Luck sobs. Search burnover Australia.
Aren't burn survivors closer?
@@savagecatzzz where do you assholes come from? Do you just appear out of thin air to satisfy your desire to argue? You're asking a question that cannot be quantitavely measured because the likelihood that those firefighters would survive, had they not escaped in that moment, is probably around 0%.
This was some of the best dash cam footage on a horror channel I've seen.
You've got yourself a subscriber, sir.
11:37 Hell yeah, that's what to do in that situation. No other option..
YUP! At least he had a vehicle that could handle it.
they really tried to block a truck using a car 💀
4:22 that reaction time is impeccable
1:25 praises his driving skills in the middle of a bad situation. What a legend
So satisfying seeing that pick up truck plow right through those criminals on the bridge.
And the next thing I know I’m doing a take two to see if I really just saw that airplane.
Fr like the people forget their in a giant metal death machine run them over
That's a full size semi lol
It’s was a f-250
That second guy nearly died because he wanted his car to sound cool, lol, think about that.
I'm glad he's okay though but it just reminds you of how little mistakes can easily snowball into large consequences.
Right? He could have also killed someone else. What a dolt. This is why you don’t freaking speed.
Crazy how there were no signs about the sharp turn or any guard rails to the cliff
I literally HATE people who drive "fart cars" or loud motorcycles and I'm not proud to say it, but I honestly wish he had died. 🙂 Dickheads like that driving around residential neighborhoods making everyone else listen to their sh*tty ass cars because they think they're so cool. It honestly feels like assault at some point and they never face any consequences for it. Humanity can do better than him. Maybe he'll figure his sh*t out one day and be more conscientious of his fellow human beings, but it seems unlikely.
*sigh* Why was he given a license?
I dated a guy like that. He had a Subaru Forester, too, strangely. Total 🤡
Im so glad all of these people are okay. It's so scary to think about driving, when anything in this video could happen to anyone.
These have got to be my favorite scary videos. I get so tired of seeing paranormal crap all over and see this as a terrifying breath of fresh air. I’m so glad everyone featured is alright.
fr
Same here
All of the paranormal vids are fake. If any are legit then they show nothing significant.
The fact that there’s anyone brave enough to do what firefighters do amazes me. Those are some great people
California uses lots of prisoners to fight wildfires, so a lot of them don't have a choice.
I'm a infantry combat veteran and I've been in some bad situations in Iraq and that fire dash cam had me scared sh*tless.
Sincere question; Do you regret Iraq?
@@666_ezio Of course he does, they had no reason to be there. False flag operations create the support of the public, rack in trillions, and get thousands to go to war. Because how else are you gonna justify doing that? False flag Ops such as 911. They stole tons of natural resources such as oil,minerals, the poppy fields that are native to Iraq/ Afghan. If you haven’t seen already, there’s literally videos of marines running over innocent people in their Humvees.. for absolutely no reason
Thanks for your service. I don’t denounce the military in any way.
Thank you for you service 🇺🇸
Thank you for your service
The fire footage really scared me. I would have totally panicked and lost my wits about what to do 😱
I feel bad laughing at that clip with the airplane, it just came out of nowhere! Glad no one was hurt.
Vroom vroom
The two in the plane were hurt.
It's a normal reaction, idc if others call you crazy or evil or whatever, it's a psychological reaction that can't always be controlled.
imagine t boning a plane on the road.
I thought 5/8 of the crew died?
That pickup truck plowing its way through that car that was trying to force it to stop (in Chili) was pretty awesome. The defensive maneuvers the guy did to get away from the cartel that was blocking the road (in Mexico) was pretty awesome too. Those might be my favorite clips in this video. They were awesome clips and they also told me that I won't be in any hurry to go to either Chili or Mexico. My vacations will be right here in the good old USA. The guy driving his car into a nearby field to get away from falling power lines was also a great clip.
@r33mote so
I'm glad to hear the good ol USA is crime free
@@edombre4637 at least in the good old USA, most are familiar with where to go and when.
@@greygoose6531 ..ridiculous argument, so are the citizens of other countries too. The USA is the 56th most dangerous country in the world (there are 195 countries in the world, so it's pretty much up there). Even Russia, Panama, Ghana, India, Philipines and China are rated safer.
@@edombre4637 are you serious?😂😂😂 Well like I said, at least out here, we know what towns to fuck with and what towns not to fuck with. Like I would not be a white bitch, going into Mexico in the middle of the night. Hell, I'm in Chicago and know there are certain times not to be out.
@3:46 I can only imagine what the person standing on the side of the road was thinking when they seen the car go over the cliff!!😳
frag die Zeugen doch einfach
"I wish i was Drunk. Maybe, that Drain Pipe will stop this idiot's plummet, to certain death, so as i can ask him for some Alcohol."
"If this guy asks for a push, he better have some Alcohol."

when i was about 4 i went on a trip to my home country, which is home to some of the largest mountains in the world, meaning a lot of roads go through the mountains.
we just arrived and were driving back from the airport where me and my twin had to witness a truck dangle from the mountain while the men inside were screaming. there were so many people attempting to get them out and i still don't know what happened after.
needless to say, im deathly afraid of mountains now 😭
Being a fellow firefighter my heart was racing… I can only imagine how they felt during that. I’m glad they made it out okay.
7:05 if his car had any type of fuel leak that car would have been engulfed in flames
Such a scary scene
chilling scares coming in clutch when i wanna procrastinate
FACTS ong
have your fun but do the damn work or cry later
3:30 why the hell there isn't a guard rail and a signal for the dangerous curve?
He could have sued them ngl
3:58 Is a good example of why situational awareness is so important. Whenever I drive or is just out and about I always keep my eyes and ears open because you just don’t know when shit will hit the fan in the worst possible way.
1:00 - Had the same thing happen in Mexico back in the mid-1990s. Driving down a straight ass two lane road in the middle of F*ing _NOWHERE_ (crossing the Guerrero Negro) at like midnight. Saw two pickups on either side of the road and like eight dudes standing in the road with a wooden barrier thing (I assume was attached to one of the trucks). The Mexican in the car said 'Go, go, GO! Banditos!'... so I went. I was already doing 70 across a black desert in the middle of the night and I guess they heard the engine racing because the dudes jumped out of the road and I blew through their impromptu roadblock doing over 100 sending their little wooden stick probably a quarter mile down the road in pieces.
On that straight ass road their pickups never would've caught the old beater I was driving so they didn't bother.
That must have been so scary...although I must admit that your comment made me laugh. I just imagine the bad guys running for their lives. I can also imagine their road block flying through the air like a bunch of little wooden matches.
Glad you made it out okay thats scary
never forget your vehicle can be used as a defensive weapon
Or offensive. Those guys on that bridge should have been smeared across the railing. Like, “help, my intestines are falling out!” smeared.
Glad the fire ended up getting contained. That must’ve been really frightening.
3:06 this is actually one of my greatest fears, this whenever I see roads like this in movies and such I will always think about “what happens if someone drives off the edge” the thought terrify’s me
You are killing this series, please keep the creep dash cam videos going, great content! I’m super depressed rn and ur videos really help keep my mind off everything. Ty 🥤🙏
The one where they’re driving threw the flames with those other vehicles is absolutely intense and frightening and listening on the radio is absolutely scary not knowing if you could’ve helped or what.
*through 🙂
@@Holychickendinner yeah but I like thru better
#1 is why you never, ever, *ever* leave you doors unlocked or your windows down. The fact that some people still do that shocks me. Luckily this man knew better.
i love the way that guy in the pickup truck had a spark in his brain like "wait a minute im in a pick up truck" 😂
Really love the 8 things that have been caught on camera as it is curious to see what suspicious people that carry out an road trap to steal cars and natural disasters caused on camera is quite disturbing to watch
The clip of the driver going over the edge of the mountain was breathtaking!
You just know he’s never going to make that mistake again!
I’ve definitely had dreams of going over the edge of a mountain and seeing it happen from this perspective was chilling
11:14
Driver: Well, didn't wanna do this, but you gave me no choice. And my car's bigger than yours, idiot.
I was so happy watchin him plow into that little car and shove the shit out of it down the road. lol
I put 70 pounds of steel in front of my car just in case
These stories are incredible, just wow thanks for the content, Op is becoming one of the best doing these. Chilling scares
Thank God for that driver’s situational awareness and driving skills in that first clip. I can say the same for all the drivers.
Cancel a trip to Mexico back to the U.S. lol
@@NativeSkeleton Seriously.
That guy holding a “metal object” running towards the car in front of him would’ve met head on the back of my car as I would’ve floored it backing up. 3:58
Then you find out it’s something you dropped and he was just trying to give it back. Now your in jail
@@joewiniecki3282 You mean to tell me that you would’ve waited for him to get close to you? This is 2022 not 1954 lol😡
dude he just wanted to talk about jesus christ relax lol
Nah, what he did was wrong but what the driver did was right. Just get out of there fast. No need to damage your car when you can just go.
That fire.. whoa.. got my heart racing.. great video
3:05 i was as scared as the driver bro
11:18 this man is a Legend.
I love how you can see the break lights come on. It's like "nah we're doing this my way, know who you're fucking with next time"
James is so lucky, that's why you know the road before doing something risky like that
You have one of the most comforting, calm and reassuring voices I've ever heard. I love it. PLEASE NEVER stop nmaking these videos, you are a NATURAL!!!
The apocalyptic fires were absolutely insane.. I must say Chilling Scares got some A+ dashcam footage..
Man, the wildfire one hit home. I lived in Portugal a few years back where there some major fires and we lived like 5/10mins from where it stopped and by the road where the drone footage of all those dead people was. The fear level was insane. Like, if you're not in the fire, it still rains burning embers and you're surrounded by eucalyptus trees and uncle are land with no safe way out. You're awake for hours and hours trying to use your limited water supply to wet the ground and flipping out as to which animals you might just have to kill on the spot and which ones can be set free to risk it on their own, with a kid stuck in the house monitoring to radio for updates. Fuck. Me. That was no fun.
Admittedly it is incredibly stupid to drive at high speed when you can't see what's ahead of you but that sharp turn after the tunnel really should have been signposted. One would expect warning signs well in advance of a turn like that. We take so much for granted.
I thought the same - here in the UK there would be red triangle warning signs in advance and huge chevrons on the bend. There may have been signposts here but I couldn't see any on the video, driven the speed, the dark of the tunnels and the glare of the sun between them.
@@vicstick75 Exactly. Most countries have mandatory warning signs telling you to slow down well in advance of sharp turns - especially on a highway - along with those black and white striped roadside barriers that are international code for "sharp turn ahead: decelerate into turn, accelerate coming out" but in a place as litigious as California that's a lawsuit waiting to happen, probable negligence, and a class action assuming other drivers have come to grief in the same place.
@@vicstick75 the thing is that it didn't even look that sharp, like it was practically gentle, and the only reason this guy lost control is because he was speeding WAY too fast and panicked and overcorrected. it's not the road or the curve or the lack of signage that's the problem, it's literally just him.
@@vicstick75 idk about california specifically but where i am in the us we also have reflective chevrons on sharp bends. the fact that this one doesn't means that it generally doesn't warrant one. this guy is just an idiot.
@@elliecarroll8752 It is a Highway.
Because of the video at 11:24 I want a big ass powerful pick up truck even more! I don't live in a big city, but I go to them from time to time and you just never know when some sketchy shit is gonna go down.
This happen on a highway area though... not a city
My brother lives in California.
Once a year - for the past 20+ years - he and his buddies go camping for a week up in the mountains; usually the same campground.
So they call ahead and the Forest Service said that the fire wouldn't reach the campgrounds and it was alright to camp.
Well, they get to the campground and were met by the Forest Service yelling at them to "Get the f*ck out!! Fire's changed course and is heading this way!!!"
Both trucks turned around and were high tailing it off the mountain.
He sent me a video of them out running the fire. It was insane. The flames were literally right behind them, everyone's screaming "faster!!!"
Everyone made it out alright, but, damn.
I think I’m gonna get a bumper stinker that says “if you’re standing in the middle of the road I will run over at full speed unless you’re just a pedestrian walking across the street!” Lmao
"bumper stinker" lmfao
Cautious drivers don't have to run anyone over. You can see them a block away just GO AROUND. If you can't go around TURN AROUND. People are crazy, "i would rather die than drive the wrong way on an abandoned road." STOP GETTING CLOSER TO MURDERERS WTF
I love bumper stinkers
I want a bumper sticker that just says “ bumper stinker”
Get a sticker for your front bumper that says "If you are close enough to read this bumper sticker, YOU will become my next bumper sticker"!
My first time watching. So glad it came up in my recommendations. This was good!
These videos are always the best from you. Thank you 🙏🏼
Those firefighters trying to make it out was one of the most intense things I ever watched...
11:30 Man doesn't give a fuck and keeps driving, a true chad 🗿
Hes a gigachad .. no i mean TERACHAD
That Chile one just convinced me to buy a pickup truck lol
I love this series , keep it up horror master
I just got done driving semi through the mountains in PA. That dude skidding out of the tunnel in CA realized my worst nightmares
Exactly! If that had happened in a semi , the driver would have been TOAST!!
