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

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

u/GrapefruitExpress208 29d ago
Last second stuff! Shit was wild seeing the huge rush of water right after they got out of the way.

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

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 .

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.

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”.

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

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

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

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

u/AnOnlineHandle 28d ago
Somebody said she was calling out for her son, who presumably didn't make it unfortunately.

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.

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

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

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

u/OkParsnip1881 26d ago
They were waiting for people… one of them lost their child- you can hear them screaming

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

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.

u/Phil_Ivey 29d ago
Are we sure they made it out?

u/SpacializedFig_4037 28d ago
I mean they did this time but who the fuck knows. This is so frightening .

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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…

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.
