Video: Flash Floods Carve Through the Desert Like a Hot Knife Through Butter
OutdoorHub Reporters 04.11.17
Oh, so that’s why they say flash floods are so dangerous . . .
Mother Nature is a mad scientist! A truly unstoppable force. This man took a video of a flash flood in the desert as it ripped through a tiny canal, devastating everything in its path.
As the water approaches, snaking through and completely overwhelming the small stream, you can see that it looks like a beaver dam plowing down toward the camera. Then, the light-hearted mood turns a bit more serious as the waters totally washout a nearby road.
The video, while it may make you feel awfully small, is really incredible! Flash floods are seriously dangerous, however, they often get ignored because people rarely witness the power and severity of them. Let this video be your wake up call.
