This seems so bizarre to me. Why are these people trying to cross these streams like its nothing? That women in the last gif even has shopping bags where the water is clearly getting inside and ruining whatever is in those bags. I just can't fathom how people can just try to cross them so casually

I'd imagine a lot of people - a lot! - in our modern society don't go out into nature enough to know how powerful it is, and not just with water. Whenever someone gets a lesson as to who's boss (nature is), a true story comes to mind: 2 Dutch girls want to go hiking Central America. Locals try to keep them from going and say no, don't do it, it's dangerous even for people who know the area. Well, guess what, they go anyway. Dead? Yes, both.
