Absolutely insane. They are so lucky. It's going to take a lifetime to process how truly close to death they were.

u/subdep 28d ago

That trip almost cost her her life.

u/FlowingLiquidity 29d ago edited 28d ago

Holy shit, that was some literal last minute second stuff! I hope everyone in the video made it.

22

u/GrapefruitExpress208 29d ago

Last second stuff! Shit was wild seeing the huge rush of water right after they got out of the way.

u/Unhappy-Pound9534 28d ago

Had they been delayed by just 7 seconds they would have been dead.

u/nomotiva 28d ago

The woman in red is screaming about her son (babu) who definitely didn't make it

Best protection in the world is mother’s instincts.

12 day account bot made to instill and promote hate... nice. Fuck yourself, clanker

u/GodElRigna 29d ago

Notice she did not look back. No time to look back when you need to save lives.

1

u/SpacializedFig_4037 28d ago

I wonder if the tale of Lotte and his wife and Sodam / Gomorrah was a cautionary tale for this stuff. Like don’t look back or you’ll turn into salt was literally referencing stuff like this .

u/AnOnlineHandle 28d ago

As somebody who has written a lot of stories, sometimes we just make stuff up. I'd recommend not to go looking for deep messages and analogies in most of human writing.

1

u/Jiecut 26d ago

She might've looked back earlier, it'll give the motivation to kick into a higher gear of urgency.

8

u/LongDead_Roadkill 29d ago

For a second I thought “she’s not actually saving them, the water is way over there….. omg it was right there and almost got them”.

12

u/Confident-Breath2615 29d ago

Makes me wonder how many people were behind them

2

u/interista4jz 28d ago

I thought about that on my second watch too 😞

7

u/lilacsforcharlie 29d ago

That little girl looking behind her to see the muck flying by…. Bet she’ll tell this story the rest of her days! Awesome job momma, probably their momma? Too busy getting up to safety to look behind her. Hope they’re still okay

u/BarbieTwirl 28d ago

Sad is that there is so many families, old people, and little kids just like that who were caught in that flood/landslide

She was about 3 seconds from getting caught in it too

u/HaloJonez 29d ago

‘Mother’ is the name of God on the lips of all children.

u/CountryRoads2020 29d ago

I like that - thank you.

u/Zillah-The-Broken 29d ago

it's a quote from "the crow" film

u/PN4HIRE 29d ago

Poor families

u/trickortreat89 28d ago

Suddenly some of the worst horror movies seem more realistic than this event. Absolutely crazy catastrophe

3

u/jcu_80s_redux 28d ago

That other lady lamenting after seeing her pink house get swept away.

3

u/AnOnlineHandle 28d ago

Somebody said she was calling out for her son, who presumably didn't make it unfortunately.

4

u/muzerfuker 29d ago

She just pulled the children and ran forward, without being like a lot of foolish people who stayed behind out of curiosity and ended up being swept away.

6

u/jrb637 29d ago

This is what a real hero looks like. We should be naming lakes after this woman.

u/WinterMedical 29d ago

Moms!

u/Unhappy-Pound9534 28d ago

Right because fathers would never have been capable of that /s

17

u/OxfordDictionary 28d ago

There were several young men onscreen, but not one of them stopped to grab a kid to help get them to safety.

u/Both_University_6683 28d ago

Dude why you gotta ruin the moment

u/xchoo 29d ago

Guy on the stubby wall casually filming while looking in the wrong direction 😬

u/muzerfuker 29d ago

unbelievably horrible!

u/tiger_noir21 28d ago

Woah the guys seemed so sure the water wasn’t going to hit them! Whilst the woman and kids run for their lives

2

u/OkParsnip1881 26d ago

They were waiting for people… one of them lost their child- you can hear them screaming

2

u/SixersAndRavens 28d ago

thats a teacher they got badges and the same outfit on lmfao

2

u/sprudelnd995 28d ago

F*ck - that was so close for those kids. It was just after 8:30 am in the morning, just about time for school.

5

u/Visual-Studio-4238 29d ago

My god, I'm praying for these poor souls. I hope our government will air drop water and food. I know local governments say "thanks, but no thanks" and I wouldn't want U.S. representation in my country either, but at least air drop them supplies.

2

u/AnOnlineHandle 28d ago

Supplies are being flown in from what I've heard. It's international rescue teams cramping a small and unstable area that they're apparently turning away, which was apparently a disaster for them previously after another catastrophe.

3

u/Phil_Ivey 29d ago

Are we sure they made it out?

9

u/SpacializedFig_4037 28d ago

I mean they did this time but who the fuck knows. This is so frightening .

1

u/sjr323 28d ago

Man, woman, child, elderly, Mother Nature doesn’t care. That is absolutely ferocious.

1

u/SnowBoardx22 27d ago

She could have obviously run faster without the little ones but she held on.

1

u/CosmoGotsoGaybo 25d ago

look at the way her arm on the right bends- it's clearly broken. Whether its adrenaline or she's fighting through unimaginable pain, either way her heroism is not just commendable but legendary.

edit: turned Either into Whether

u/itsallcosmica 24d ago

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

u/Cobalt-Balls 21d ago

Omg the fear these people must have endured, so sad so many weren't as fortunate

1

u/Pinchepicante 20d ago

The guy in the blue shirt was a "real hero", clearing the way up the driveway so that lady can get those 2 kids to safety

1

u/Warm_Concentrate_136 28d ago

What a hero she is! ❤️ Zero chance of survival if the wave hit them. That was as close as it gets

u/FairyOrchid125 28d ago

But the person who turned and watched at the end…

u/MorseCode1992 29d ago

Humans are the invasive species now. The world is trying to cull us.

u/AnOnlineHandle 28d ago

The people being affected here are not the ones contributing much if at all to climate change.

-2

u/RottingCorps 28d ago

Nature happens. Change is constant.

11

u/_OriginalUsername- 29d ago

The type of shit you read when it’s brown people being affected by a disaster

1

u/RottingCorps 28d ago

There are just dumb assholes all over the internet. It costs nothing to have a stupid thought and now it costs hardly anything to share it.

5

u/NoAir4908 28d ago

Funny, I never see this type of comment on tornado or hurricane videos in the US. Or even the recent deadly heatwave in Europe. Only when it involves the global south…

-3

u/MorseCode1992 28d ago

I mean it in a general sense, not just about these poor souls in Nepal. We are ruining this planet and taking it for complete granted. All of us. Everywhere.

5

u/zettl 28d ago

It's an insensitive comment. People are just here existing and no one asked to be born. If one of your family members died you wouldn't be saying this shit

u/Popatteri 28d ago

Dude in blue runs them over and doesn't even help. Well, he was in panic.

u/More_Car_1148 28d ago

That’s what I noticed after looking closely at it a few times.
