This is just absolutely Devastating!!! I have family friends that live in Paradise, along with their children’s families! They’ve ALL lost their homes! The parents, Tom and Connie Wallis, managed to grab their motor home, which lucky enough for them had all they essentially needed in the moment to get out safely. My heart breaks for everyone who’s experiencing all of this! To all those who lost homes, loved ones , and even fur-babies to the fire, I’m so terribly, Terribly Sorry! All of Canada is sending their heartfelt thoughts, prayers, condolences, for such a tremendous loss!! From Terrace, BC, Canada 🇨🇦
I have been searching the internet, UA-cam, social media and news channels to see what the devastation actually is. As a former resident with family that still lives in Paradise and Magaila I want to thank you so much for this video. Please do as many as you can
For what it's worth thanks for taking the time to shoot the video, moved away last year but looks like you guys need all the help you can get, guess I'm head'n back your way, see you asap
Thank you for this video. The news keeps saying that the town has been virtually wiped off the map and I can see that there are some buildings standing. It is hard to tell which ones have been burnt inside and which ones made it through, but there are still some parts that survived. I moved out 12 or so years ago, but my heart goes out to the people who lived in the town. Whether their homes and businesses survived or not, no one can be unaffected by the devastation. Thank you to the emergency responders, shelter workers and people donating goods and services. You are all heroes.
Nicholas Shelton, I would very much like to know the name of the person that was sitting in the middle of the fire truck when you were filming this . I think I know him and I would like confirmation please . First of all their call Direct Energy weapons or DEWS they were used in the Santa Rosa fire. Nice catch people.
I'm sorry you guys don't know if your homes are still standing or what the condition is... I can understand what you mean by excruciating and I'm sorry you guys are going through this. I don't know why the guy with the phone camera didn't spend more time pointing it out the window on the side so we could get her better look at the properties
And do what, exactly? Condemn him for speaking the truth? Hey, I know. Trump could restore the budget cuts to the National Forestry Service that Reagan slashed way back when, so we COULD manage all this better. Fvking Republican criminals.
@@TicklerDude you think someone as evil as Jerry brown would discriminate between his supporters and non supporters to push that agenda? Hardly. But Butte county did vote for Trump and Cox. So perhaps you're right...
Are you talking about Gerry-mandering Brown-stain, the curse of Californication, the scandal-coated creature from the charred lagoon? 'He's' 'above' the hard questions... for now.
I haven't seen devastation like that since the 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens ...RIP to all the Victims and condolences to all the people who lost loved ones & friends ...
Yeah but the real mortal sin here is that he didn't show enough of the actual properties that are off to the side of the road and not straight ahead in the highway.. some people are trying to see if their houses are still there and that's why they watch some of the videos
I’m praying for all the people who have lost family, friends & homes! I also pray for all the great brave firefighters who are fighting these man made DEW fires! According to Mark Taylor, a retired firefighter, these are class D fires. That’s a metal type fire from the aluminum oxide that they’ve sprayed on our forests for decades. They’re called chem trails. These firefighters are really putting their lives on the line. God bless all of you!
I don't mean to get political but couldn't the president have tweeted his praise for the firefighters and sympathy for the victims instead of scolding and threatening to cut federal funding. Of course later he praised the firefighters. Who advises this guy? The sad part is that many of these rural communities support this reality TV star. What do they think of him now?
@@gcord21 They know! But you dont seem to realise their is 4 states that are still out on our senate voting still counting the fraud votes...The Governor should be out there with his regular citizens and keeping in contact with the President not reality star we have 15,000 troops on our southern border because 20,000 illegals are on their way to flood our country to cause martial law...and you pay atttention to tweets really He has said stuff the media refuses to get anything right on purpose...your an idiot hes dealing full force all in one month then the reality tv star Obama did in 8 years where was Obama's praise for our cops that were provin right in all the shooting cases nowhere..did he help with any of the riots nope he encouraged it..you have nerve.
@@Mz_Tingley Not the first or last time illegals will cross the border. This was all grandstanding by the orange birther. He was a fool to think that he can get anything, he is not a dictator just delusional. It's only fraud because dems are winning. Why people support this reality TV star is beyond me. With that said, both sides are hypocrites.
Good to see that a lot of it is still standing at least, small consolation for those who got burned out but it doesn't appear that the entire town was leveled as often reported.
Any chance you can see if my parents home on Fairview drive survived? (Off maxwell drive by the highschool). If not I understand. Hoping for a miracle.
Please drive through Magalia if you can.. Spar Way... I want to see the house where my kids were raised..if it's still there.. it's still or was..still in the family. Damn.. if I had lived there.. I know we would be dead by now. I never get up before noon and I never watched tv there... Thank God for miracles. I'm also worried ably all our friends there. I live in Ecuador now..so if you can post a video about Magalia..I really truly appreciate it.
Has anyone been down Pearson? Are there any businesses still standing? My good friends auto shop is on pearson and he has no idea if it's still standing. Any info would he greatly appreciated
Justin Newell I went down Pearson coming back and there was nothing left when you first turn down before heading up the hill, not sure exactly where his shop is but I may be able to get some more video soon.
@@VeteranE-4 you should, and you should actually get the properties of people's homes so we can see. Just film everything not the road and side of the road like you were mostly doing lol what's the point
I want to make some joke about the biggest disaster here is that they filmed vertically but this matter should be treated with more respect than that. Shame on me..
Thanks so much for this video! Do you remember when you passed by the trailer park on skyway after the Walgreens? There’s a little sign that says RV Park (Skyway Villa). I’m just wondering if you could see whether any of the trailers were still standing?
Pacific Gas and Electric (the utility company there) recorded a failure on their electrical power transmission lines at the approximate source of the fire. It was probably a spark that was set off by electrical equipment that started the blaze. Before assuming that a disaster was caused by extraterrestrial aliens, Elvis, Hitler, the Bermuda Triangle or secret weapons, look for common causes that happen all the time. Most of these large fires in the forest and the towns in the mountains are caused by fire pits that spread accidentally, lightning, arson, or electrical lines. I have never heard of a single forest fire that was even suspected of being started by beam weapons.
Since you have never heard of it, there is no such thing. 🤔 It's your logical? It is strange that cars and houses are stewed, but trees are largely still standing! 😉 "You can ignore reality, but you can not ignore the consequences of ignored reality!" 😉 Good luck.
@@skulengu6854 you've never heard of dew before? Haven't you been watching all these fires lately. That's all people say that caused it. Fires can also start from volcanic activity.

Leo Wong thank you sincerely for the kind correction! I did not notice the error! It’s now corrected! Lol😁 thanks again💕
What kind of fire jumps from house to car with total devastation and leaves trees
I could say much about facts but I appreciate posting this. I was born and grew up here. Thank Jesus my Nana is Safe visiting away. Prayers to all.
This is so sad, I cannot imagine how the residents feel.
My deepest sympathies to the families that lost loved ones.
I have been searching the internet, UA-cam, social media and news channels to see what the devastation actually is. As a former resident with family that still lives in Paradise and Magaila I want to thank you so much for this video. Please do as many as you can
There are so many videos on the Tube. One person was even giving out addresses of homes.
Thanks for taking the time to show this video. Stay safe
Thank you for your work and thank you for posting this. Prayers for the people and our environment.
Thank you for this video, this is the first real glimpse I've seen of a Skyway drive through Paradise. Near total devastation.
For what it's worth thanks for taking the time to shoot the video, moved away last year but looks like you guys need all the help you can get, guess I'm head'n back your way, see you asap

You are 100% spot on.
Not a good sign seeing those burnt out cars on the road. Very creepy.
Damn, my place is so close to Skyway but no one has been able to capture that area so far. Excruciating.
Ava M me too, I keep hoping someone drives by my house
Ava I'm truly so very sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry you guys don't know if your homes are still standing or what the condition is... I can understand what you mean by excruciating and I'm sorry you guys are going through this.
I don't know why the guy with the phone camera didn't spend more time pointing it out the window on the side so we could get her better look at the properties
ODD how the so hot fires jumped from house to house unbelievable
@@maryhall1181 Thank you Mary. My place is gone. As is my parents, my partners, his daughters, his ex-wife's. Dozens upon dozens of people we know.
When you look back now ..after the Santa Rosa pyre...the Gov Brown states "Fires are the new norm"....why didnt anyone call him on that statement?
And do what, exactly? Condemn him for speaking the truth? Hey, I know. Trump could restore the budget cuts to the National Forestry Service that Reagan slashed way back when, so we COULD manage all this better. Fvking Republican criminals.
PGE neglect. It may have been an inside job. Brown using PGE on purpose to push global warming
Strange, only the houses owned by Democrats burned. The Republican owned houses were undamaged.

Looks like a very nice place to live.I have never heard of it until now i live about 150 miles away.
It isn't a very nice place to live now. It's gone.
It was a working class town. Water and soil is ruined now, so now a good place to live.
@@icantthinkofaname15 air, water and oil is now toxic.
Usually it's a mortal sin to shoot video vertically, but in this particular case, I'll make an exception.
Still a really bad sin

@Spacecoastz What if I told you it wasn't either party causing all these problems?
So sad have you seen some other camp fire videos
Good to see that a lot of it is still standing at least, small consolation for those who got burned out but it doesn't appear that the entire town was leveled as often reported.
It pretty much is tho. Like 90 something percent is burnt. Nobody will be living there for a long time I imagine
@Leo Wong Thanks "Wang".
Any idea if the Paradise Pines RV Park in Magalia survived?
Is the Skyway a road thru all these towns? So sad.
Kathy Doan Skyway is the main road going up from Chico, through Paradise and up to Magalia.
Next time shoot landscape
Who tf watch video in landscape
I thought you meant like actual landscape lmao 🤦
@@SyazwanMMD people who watch UA-cam on their TV. Who wants to look at a tiny screen?
@@ecz28 get out more you fat ass
Any chance you can see if my parents home on Fairview drive survived? (Off maxwell drive by the highschool). If not I understand. Hoping for a miracle.
Got the answer. It did not.
I’m so sorry😢
This is my home and we will rebuild Paradise
Did Happy Garden burn down? How do things look on Elliott Road?
Please drive through Magalia if you can.. Spar Way... I want to see the house where my kids were raised..if it's still there.. it's still or was..still in the family. Damn.. if I had lived there..

That's a huge move. From Cali to Ecuador. Is it better than the States?
I don't understand why an how things burned down
microwave energy.
0:17 When I went up two months after the fire that's what was most shocking to me. Some things look untouched whiles others were just ruble
DEW.
Has anyone been down Pearson? Are there any businesses still standing? My good friends auto shop is on pearson and he has no idea if it's still standing. Any info would he greatly appreciated

Landscape versus portrait
Looks like a laser burned the homes and cars but not the trees
See Cali when you question anything someone comes along and criticizes you and calls you names.Keep on questioning!
@@SilentWeaponsQuietWars exactly. Question EVERYTHING!!! These "fires" aren't natural they were started by someone purposely.
We are under attack by d e w s look it up people educate yourself or die
That is what happens the government is doing it to you it is not natural look up d e w s
@@SilentWeaponsQuietWars You are fucking insane, thats why. Educate yourself on how forrest fires work before spewing your bullshit here.
Aren't you fire fighters where is the fire?
How is Mulberry Lane off of Pentz? I imagine it's toast.
How far up skyway did you get up? Do you know how stieffer road made it? My parents house is there
Andrew Silber I made it up near Wagstaff, I’m going to continue to try and get more video
@@VeteranE-4 you should, and you should actually get the properties of people's homes so we can see. Just film everything not the road and side of the road like you were mostly doing lol what's the point
I want to make some joke about the biggest disaster here is that they filmed vertically but this matter should be treated with more respect than that. Shame on me..
Look fire proof tree's
Blows a big hole in Trump's "forest management" rant. That "dead wood" he thinks should be cleared are people's homes.
@@habeuscorpuscle Can't tell the difference, can he?
All those cars burnt out on the side of the road makes me cry
😞
Most, not all, was burned; a bit of media exaggeration.
It was not exaggeration in the least.
Thanks so much for this video! Do you remember when you passed by the trailer park on skyway after the Walgreens? There’s a little sign that says RV Park (Skyway Villa). I’m just wondering if you could see whether any of the trailers were still standing?
Doubt it
Don't trees burn? Hmmmm
Cynbad Davis big trees are somewhat fireproof unless there is a crown fire.
do ya no ya can turn yr phone sideways and git a WAY better pix ... and slow the phuk down
Foster Freeze gone.
Pray I don’t want the fire to spread from yuba city to sacermento
Kristina _UA-cam it won’t. Sacramento is 90 miles away and they said by the end of nov fire will be put out
9/11 = 11/9.... Energy Weapons 🤔
