00:00The weather.

00:03The pulse of our planet.

00:05Large tornado in progress.

00:08Capable of catastrophic destruction.

00:11Severe thunderstorm warning.

00:13Leaving landscapes in total ruin.

00:16Totally mashed up. Everything is flattened.

00:19As global temperatures rise.

00:23The weather is spiraling out of control.

00:26Oh, you.

00:29With shocking up-close footage.

00:32We had 24-foot dumpsters rolling by.

00:35Oh, shoot. I'm losing it. What the hell is going?

00:38From the front line of fear.

00:40This might be the last time I'm in my house.

00:43Tordango!

00:45I got sucked out feet first.

00:48Felt myself hit the ground.

00:51Our island is in trouble.

00:54We meet the people who have stared death in the face.

00:57Oh, dear God.

00:59All I could hear was run, run, run.

01:02And miraculously survived.

01:04Look at this!

01:07The world's deadliest weather.

01:09Coming up, Hurricane Milton brings terrifying tornadoes that tear through tons in Florida.

01:26Leaving homes and lives in ruins.

01:29If we walk out of this pantry, is a log going to fall on us?

01:32Is there another tornado behind it?

01:34On the island of Maui, hurricane force winds fuel a furious fire that rages relentlessly.

01:41It literally looks like we're in hell.

01:44Forcing residents into the flame-filled ocean.

01:48We're way too on fire.

01:50What are we going to do? Dunk ourselves in the fuel water?

01:54Flash floods rip through a reservation in Arizona.

01:58Look at that water coming over that side.

02:00Trapping terrified tourists in the canyon.

02:04It starts to feel more and more and more serious.

02:07And a solo sailor's desperate struggle to save his own life.

02:12After being struck by lightning off the coast of Panama.

02:16It's a sizzling, stark crack.

02:20Like a whiff.

02:21Florida, in the US, experiences 60 tornadoes on average every year.

02:36But in October of 2024, as Hurricane Milton rages across the Gulf of Mexico.

02:44The Category 5 storm triggers an unprecedented 46 tornadoes to hit Florida in one day alone.

02:53The biggest number in 70 years.

02:56We know that thunderstorms can spawn tornadoes.

02:57When you have so much energy in the atmosphere, one of the ways that the atmosphere attempts to create an equilibrium or balance is manifesting as a tornado.

03:15Getting rid of all that energy downward.

03:17In the United States, they get tornadoes that can rip apart houses in a matter of seconds.

03:25They start spiraling and then eventually will tilt round.

03:29And if they hit the ground, that's when they become a tornado.

03:32Someone who knows exactly how powerful tornadoes can be is 25-year-old storm chaser, Morgan Gigan.

03:42Who lives near Wellington on the east coast of Florida.

03:46I had been tracking Hurricane Milton for a few days.

03:49The threat of tornadoes did appear to be heightened.

03:54I was on my way to work and saw this storm moving north through the Everglades.

04:00So I made my diversion and went straight towards the storm and ended up intercepting it at the Miccosukee Service Plaza.

04:11I was able to see this storm with just violent lower level motion.

04:17Began to wrap up and very, very quickly form a tornado.

04:22Large tornado in progress.

04:25Moving north at this time, large wedge tornado in progress.

04:28I was pretty psyched.

04:30You very rarely get tornadoes at 8am in the morning and that's even more rare in South Florida.

04:37And the second that that occurred, I knew it was going to be a potentially historic day.

04:41Long track tornado.

04:43We're all going for about 15 minutes now.

04:45112 kilometers north of Morgan in Fort Pierce, Kobe Taborski and his uncle Eli have seen numerous tornado warnings on social media.

04:59So they head out to try and spot one.

05:01We're traveling north along I-95 and we saw several instances where a tornado had crossed the road.

05:08Everything was just a mess.

05:10People were taking shelter in their vehicles under the overpasses to try to escape the random tornadoes that were everywhere.

05:17We come across this one circulating cloud and we could tell that it's about to form into a tornado.

05:27Across the horizon we could see a funnel.

05:32It was moving quite fast and it was a little erratic.

05:37It was exhilarating.

05:38It was incredible.

05:39But their most shocking sight was still to come.

05:45We took the exit on Okeechobee and we went west.

05:51And we received an official tornado warning.

05:56So our phones went off again.

06:02There wasn't making a U-turn.

06:04There wasn't any backing up.

06:05There wasn't any flooring in it to try to go through.

06:10We just stayed right there.

06:12It was extremely powerful.

06:36Lahaina, Hawaii, August 2023.

06:41A series of wildfires collide with hurricane force winds to create a near inescapable hell on Earth.

06:49That rages into the night and forces islanders to choose between a flaming ocean.

06:55That's all way too on fire.

06:57Or a deadly suffocating inferno.

07:00Hurricane Dora was producing wind gusts on Maui from 64 to 128 kilometers an hour.

07:10The fire spread incredibly fast, overtaking communities.

07:14And unfortunately, many people could not get out of harm's way.

07:18Lahaina is a picturesque paradise.

07:22Home to boat captain Chrissy Lovett and her wife Emma, who run a business delivering groceries by boat.

07:28The weather in Lahaina is not always sunshine and rainbows.

07:33We get these winds called the Kutlulu winds and they funnel through the valleys.

07:38And so we'll get winds cranking through there 30 to 80 knots sometimes.

07:43It's the summer of 2023 and local news stations in Lahaina are reporting that hurricane Dora is on its way.

07:56Chrissy had actually been watching this weather pattern for probably about five days.

08:02The power actually went out at 4.35 a.m.

08:05Emma, she's the one who woke up first and she was pretty concerned and wanted to go to the boat.

08:13As we headed into Lahaina, we saw just debris everywhere.

08:18Oh, that boat is blowing over, dude. Look at that boat. It healed over.

08:24The masts of sailboats were almost like touching the water, like being completely blown over.

08:28Wow. I've never seen a boat heel over in strong winds.

08:37We made it to the harbor and it just was like, wow. This is nuts.

08:45As the hurricane winds batter the harbor, the couple rush to secure their boat.

08:50Part of being responsible captain is making sure it doesn't break free during the storm, making sure we put extra lines on, we put extra fenders.

08:59But the hurricane is only part of the problem.

09:03Recent hot and dry conditions mean a wildfire has started in the brush on the mountains that surround Lahaina.

09:10And the intense wind is spreading the fire toward the town and the harbor.

09:16We had heard that there was a brush fire earlier, but it was just all of a sudden a massive column of smoke.

09:29And then the smoke, it just grew to this unbelievable size.

09:34We heard like these like, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.

09:47We thought it was fireworks.

09:51We realized those aren't fireworks, those are explosions.

09:55As the fire reaches the harbor, the intense heat ignites the fuel tanks in the boats, causing them to explode one by one.

10:06The road out of the harbor is blocked by the flames and the island's infrastructure continues to collapse in the chaos.

10:13I tried to make a phone call and the cell phones were all dead.

10:18I think we're going to leave so we can see the flames.

10:21We got to get out of here.

10:23It was starting to get like pretty worrisome.

10:25Like we were like, okay, maybe like driving out was not happening.

10:29It literally looks like we're in hell.

10:37Back in Florida, Hurricane Milton is heading straight for the west coast, triggering 46 tornadoes across the state.

10:44Kobe and his uncle Eli are trapped in their car as a furious looking funnel barrels straight toward them.

11:14The tornado was a unique feeling.

11:24The pressure drops, it gets very dark.

11:27The only thing that you saw was black.

11:36The only light that we had were transformers blowing up away from us.

11:40We both thought that we were going to be airborne at any moment.

11:55You had thousands and thousands of small debris fields just slammed against the side of the car.

12:00The overall roar that that tornado made is unforgettable.

12:11Once I realized that it was safe, I stepped out of the vehicle, went and surveyed the damage.

12:17There was a piece of metal fence, a 48-inch piece of aluminum sticking out of the side of the Jeep that very easily could have came through the windshield.

12:32I think that we both knew immediately how close we came to possibly losing our lives.

12:39Hurricane Milton is now just hours away, and tornadoes are being reported in several towns and cities across the east coast.

12:53120 kilometers south of Kobe and Eli, Storm Chaser Morgan has roped in a friend to help him tail a tornado in the ordinarily sleepy town of Wellington.

13:03Look at that thing. Look at that thing.

13:04We were aware of the Wellington EF3 tornado because we were watching it on radar for about 20 miles beforehand.

13:13And then we saw this gorgeous, large, destructive cone tornado occurring about five miles south of us.

13:24It was this large, gray, almost mean-looking cone tornado, and you could already see that it was lofting debris high into the air.

13:38Tornadoes generally don't move particularly fast, but they can really switch direction very quickly indeed.

13:47They're being fed by the thunderstorm above them.

13:50So generally, if you see the skies blackening, you should be wary.

13:54And if you do see a tornado, head in the opposite direction.

13:59You either have to get ahead of it or you have to stay back of it and allow it to cross in front of us.

14:04We decide to go ahead of it and then as it moved closer to populated areas, you could see even more debris and it take on this even darker, more angry gray color.

14:17And outside the side of our passenger side window, you could see just debris being thrown through the air and just this large tornado slowly bearing down on us.

14:33This was the closest I've ever allowed myself to get to a tornado, especially one of this intensity.

14:42After being this close, it's given me a whole new respect for Mother Nature and for the fact that she cannot be tamed.

14:50Australian sailor Peter Lukursky spends his life aboard his 42-foot sailboat, filming his nautical adventures and sharing them online.

15:12I've got to make sure I'm attached to my lifeline.

15:19I've lived on a boat, well, since 2008 and I'm married to the sea.

15:25What do I love about the sea?

15:28Well, there's less people and there's a lot of adventure.

15:33You can live this very, very healthy life.

15:39I love it.

15:41Early to bed, early to rise.

15:43Sailing is just a very simple life.

15:46It's 2020 and Peter is exploring the San Blas Islands in the Caribbean Sea.

15:54That whole coastline is absolutely beautiful.

15:57But when it comes to summertime, the wet season, the mountains tend to be lightning magnets.

16:07And so the closer you are, the more likely to get hit.

16:11That was just over there!

16:13I mean, to get hit by lightning, it's pretty rare.

16:17You know, I figured I was quite safe.

16:21Peter is used to riding out extreme weather.

16:25But one night in October of 2020, he gets an unexpected shock.

16:38A bolt of lightning strikes his boat, sending a large spark through the rig, leaving him without power and with no means of communication.

16:47To describe the moment it hit, it's just so quick.

16:50I can't tell you what was going through my mind, but it felt like some passive force hitting me in the back.

16:59It's so bright as it's like completely white.

17:05It's so crisp.

17:08It's a sizzling, stark crack.

17:11Like a whip.

17:12Lightning is known to be deadly and extremely dangerous as it's got a lot of electricity and is hotter than the surface of the sun.

17:22If you find yourself getting struck by lightning in water or even nearby, it could be the equivalent of putting a toaster in a bathtub.

17:29Water is a conductor of electricity and the end result would be electrocution.

17:34The lightning travelled down the mast and around the body of the aluminum boat, cracking the frame.

17:43I could see molten metal falling around my ears.

17:49I checked all the compartments.

17:51It's just nothing.

17:52I went straight to the hatch and I lifted it up and as I lifted up, I just heard this waterfall in the middle of my boat.

18:04The lightning travelled down the mast and around the body of the boat, cracking the frame.

18:14But with no hole immediately apparent, Peter begins to suspect the damage to his boat might be below the waterline.

18:22So armed with a torch, he dives in.

18:25I went to all the most logical places and then, of course, I saw this flap hanging down.

18:37The hole really was about that big.

18:39So a hole like that would sink a boat like mine in three minutes.

18:46And so I jumped in the dinghy, I got some plastic bags and this very sticky plastic tape.

18:54And I thought I'd go and find the hole, plug it, and then that should reduce the flow.

19:01This is special tape that sticks to wet surfaces.

19:04It wasn't my finest work of plugging a hole.

19:07But I thought, this is great.

19:09I was actually feeling quite chuffed with myself.

19:13But the commotion in the water has attracted another dangerous issue.

19:19A school of bull sharks.

19:21People said, oh, won't you worry?

19:23Well, I didn't want to lose my home.

19:25That's the most important thing.

19:29Luckily, the sharks keep their distance.

19:32And Peter's plugging means his boat stays afloat until he can find help.

19:37Hear that, people?

19:40Nothing.

19:41Silence.

19:42Silence.

19:43The bilge alarm stopped about five minutes ago.

19:47The problem has been solved.

19:51That'll do it.

19:55Well, there was no more leak.

19:57It was all good.

19:58Done.

20:00I'm still going to take risks.

20:01It's still going to be reckless.

20:03So, I don't think it's changed me at all, really.

20:06But...

20:08I must admit, the awesomeness of lightning, it's amazing.

20:18Volcanoes are Earth's fiery titans.

20:21Highly unpredictable by their very nature.

20:24Where explosive force and deadly beauty collide.

20:28In unstoppable destruction.

20:33This tourist in Iceland is risking his life to shoot the perfect shot.

20:38Standing perilously close to a volatile lake of lava

20:42that is burning its way down a mountain in Iceland.

20:45Following the eruption of Fagra Dalsviat, Gelding Gadalir volcano,

20:50in August of 2021.

20:52Ha, ha, ha, ha!

20:54Woo-hoo!

20:56Suddenly, the lava flow increases dramatically,

20:59spewing gallons of molten rock into the air,

21:03narrowly missing the foolish photographer

21:06as it rages along its flaming path.

21:12But when the majestic Mount Dukono begins to erupt

21:15in North Halmahira, Indonesia, in August of 2024,

21:18absolutely no one is stopping for photos.

21:24Instead, the terrified tourists run for their lives,

21:28trying to get as far as possible from the mind-blowing mass of rock and dust,

21:33billowing from the beast.

21:35The unauthorized climbers were warned that the volcano was on high alert,

21:40and told to remain within a three kilometer radius of the peak.

21:44Yet they still ventured in to the highly hazardous area.

21:48Miraculously, there were no reported injuries,

21:51and older climbers escaped with their lives.

21:55But they might think twice before breaking the rules in the future.

22:00October 9th, 2024, a record-breaking 46 tornadoes hit Florida,

22:16paving the way for Hurricane Milton, which is brewing over the Gulf of Mexico.

22:20One of the more severe of them has torn across the town of Wellington on the east coast.

22:27Tornado in progress! Tornado in progress!

22:30Narrowly missing Storm Chaser Morgan.

22:33And now it's hurtling east towards West Palm Beach,

22:37the home of Danielle Watson and her husband Robert.

22:40I remember that I had heard that there were tornadoes happening in South Florida.

22:48Robert had gone outside and was looking at some sort of weird clouds happening outside.

22:56This is so low.

22:58I know, I'm watching it.

23:00We can see the wind shifting, the clouds kind of stirring in a circle,

23:05and we saw, as it approached, a lot of debris flying in the air.

23:12And this, you can see it in a circular motion.

23:16And I honestly thought we were relatively safe, being as naive as that is.

23:23Oh, my gosh.

23:28Oh, my God.

23:30And then it just seemed to come towards us,

23:33and then it was here.

23:36Oh, my God.

23:40What I remember the most is just all the debris hitting the houses

23:46and the noise of the glass breaking and things just flying.

23:52It was just gray, grayish, and you can see the debris twisting in the air.

23:58I didn't realize the magnitude of what was about to happen.

24:03Obviously, if I did, I would have used better judgment

24:07and would have gotten into a safe place.

24:10I was in shock. I had never seen anything like this in my life.

24:27As the tornado passes directly over Danielle and Robert's house,

24:33it picks up a garden chair and smashes it into the sliding glass door.

24:37One of the two got picked up and just thrown right against the slider.

24:46It was quite terrifying.

24:49I honestly was fearful that the roof was going to get ripped off.

24:53The intensity and the power of this was so much.

25:03To see that just get picked up like magic and then thrown up against the slider.

25:10I'll never forget that.

25:11That was just very frightening to me.

25:13The 241-kilometer-per-hour whirlwind was later categorized as an EF-3 tornado.

25:22May please get inside.

25:25Meaning it's severe, having caused significant damage to hundreds of homes.

25:31We just walked out front, saw the destruction.

25:38The street was just lined with debris.

25:41I don't know.

25:47We were both stunned.

25:50Our community had been so devastated in five minutes.

25:54Back in Lahaina on Maui, a wildfire fueled by hurricane-force winds reaches the harbor.

26:01Front Street is on fire.

26:03Emma and Chrissy are desperately trying to escape the flames.

26:07People came running through and they were like, the fire is here. It's like, get out. We have to go.

26:13I think we're going to leave the flames.

26:16We got to get out of here and there's really only one option.

26:17I grabbed a ten-foot skiff and I started shuttling people out of the harbor.

26:21I grabbed a ten-foot skiff and I started shuttling people out of the harbor.

26:22I grabbed a ten-foot skiff and I started shuttling people out of the harbor.

26:30At a certain point, it was like darkness because there was so much smoke and it's like you're driving in the dark, you can't see anything.

26:40It literally looks like we're in hell.

27:04And then we kind of sat there for a second and look back

27:07and, like, look back and, like, just the town is, like, disappearing.

27:15We couldn't do anything. We couldn't go back in.

27:17And we're just like, what do we do now?

27:23The couple has no choice but to wait in the water

27:26and hope the fires die down.

27:30As the hours pass and darkness falls,

27:32they watch helplessly as the flames consume their hometown.

27:38We were like, well, we can't just sit here

27:40and just, like, watch all of this.

27:42You know, like, we have to try to do something.

27:45We were like, let's go see if anyone else is in there.

27:47Let's see if we can find anyone, get them out of the water.

27:55As we turned into the harbor,

27:57the waves were actually on fire

28:00from the amount of fuel and ash and oil

28:02that was on the surface of the water.

28:05And it was, like, this apocalypse

28:08that we had just driven the dinghy into.

28:10Be careful right here.

28:13We were getting bombed by, uh, it was, like, fire debris.

28:20We were really afraid of, like, our clothes catching on fire,

28:23of, like, anything catching on fire,

28:25and then, like, what are we gonna do?

28:26Dunk ourselves in the fuel water?

28:30Despite their fears,

28:33Emma and Chrissy spend hours helping the Coast Guard

28:36rescue exhausted islanders from the water.

28:38Some of them children.

28:42Like, having a purpose felt better than sitting there

28:45and watching helplessly as, like,

28:47your town disappeared before your eyes.

28:53By morning, most of the fire has burnt itself out.

28:56After 18 hours at sea,

28:59watching their town turn to ashes,

29:01suffering from smoke inhalation and exhaustion,

29:04the couple are able to return to dry land.

29:09But nothing could have prepared them

29:11for the devastation to come.

29:13It's so slick with fuel in here.

29:15Yeah.

29:16We went into the harbor, and it was gone.

29:26It was like a war zone.

29:29Everything's gray, black.

29:31Everything's smoky.

29:33You know, there's no green.

29:37The wind had stopped.

29:40There were no more explosions.

29:43Silence.

29:47No birds chirping.

29:50No leaves moving in the wind.

30:00102 people lost their lives in the Maui Fire,

30:04making it one of the deadliest wildfires in U.S. history.

30:08Over 2,000 structures were destroyed,

30:11and federal officials estimated the cost of the damage

30:14to be well over $5 billion.

30:18Emma and Chrissy feel lucky to have escaped with their lives.

30:23Emotions.

30:25They're up, they're down.

30:26There's anger, there's sadness, there's hope.

30:28I'm grateful every single day that I am safe, that Chrissy was safe.

30:38And, you know, the loss is tragic, and so that's ever-present,

30:42but I think it's just as present as the gratitude of being alive and being safe.

30:47As those in Maui know, the ocean is a force of relentless power and untamed fury.

31:06It's a typical day at Pierpoint Beach in California in the U.S.,

31:15when the waves suddenly turn sinister, speeding towards the sea wall.

31:20Oh!

31:21Oh!

31:22Oh!

31:23Oh!

31:24Oh, shit!

31:25Oh!

31:27Oh, no!

31:29Oh!

31:30But the waves are too strong for some, and they get dragged under,

31:33and pulled along as far as 50 yards, sustaining multiple injuries.

31:38Oh!

31:39Oh!

31:42The flooded town is thrown into chaos as traffic comes to a standstill,

31:47perfectly demonstrating the pure power of the ocean.

31:55It's late evening in this small village in northwest Greenland,

32:00when a tsunami hits the houses along the shoreline.

32:03At first, the rising water level doesn't appear to be too concerning,

32:09until some of the houses begin to float by.

32:16As the wave size rapidly increases,

32:20the seriousness of the situation becomes inescapable,

32:25as more and more houses are ripped from their foundations

32:29and carried away by the water.

32:31The wave continues to push its way inland,

32:38causing locals to run in search of higher ground.

32:43The person filming managed to escape the water,

32:48but reports later confirmed that four people were tragically killed.

32:52The Havasupai reservation bordering the Grand Canyon, Arizona, in the United States,

33:08is one of America's most remote settlements,

33:13only accessible by helicopter or on foot.

33:17Each year, thousands of tourists make the 16-kilometer hike into the canyon

33:23to witness the area's spectacular waterfalls.

33:25But in August 2024, heavy rain triggers major flash flooding.

33:35Look at that water coming over that side.

33:38Cutting off access and leaving nearly 100 hikers trapped in the reservation.

33:43Flash floods are when heavy rain falls from the sky and the ground just can't cope with that volume of water.

33:53Flash floods can occur very rapidly, generating a lot of mud as well, exacerbating the flood.

33:58Flash floods can be incredibly dangerous because the speed of the water currents.

34:05People can be taken by surprise at the rising of that water so rapidly.

34:10What we have to remember, it just takes six inches of water to knock someone off their feet,

34:20particularly if there's currents within that body of water.

34:27Clayton Worthen from Las Vegas and his wife Shelly love spending time outdoors.

34:33Avasubai is one of the most beautiful places I think a lot of hikers can go to in the southern United States.

34:42It is one of the top hikes.

34:45So along with 10 of their friends, the couple start the trek into the canyon.

34:51On the way down, it's typical like rock paths.

34:56But once you get down, there's greenery, it's lush, especially as you get right into the village.

35:01At the end of the hike, then you start seeing those beautiful blue waters that come into play.

35:08The group stop to admire the famous Havasupai Falls,

35:13then trek further down to their campsite in the base of the canyon.

35:19We checked the weather before we went down.

35:21It had rained the night before, and there was rain in the forecast.

35:26And it was supposed to rain lightly.

35:28Lightly, yeah.

35:29Was the big thing.

35:30For like 20 minutes.

35:31And then it was going to be done.

35:35It sprinkled for probably about 45 minutes.

35:37And then it started coming down heavy-ish.

35:39And we were in our tent.

35:41We had six of us in there.

35:44You don't want everyone to get wet.

35:46It got more serious as we got word from the ranger, hey, there's a flash flood coming down, you guys need to start moving.

36:00Within moments, I was dragged shed to toe.

36:03And then as we start moving, waterfalls are forming.

36:06Look at that water coming over that side.

36:09It starts to feel more and more and more serious.

36:13We were kept on being pushed to go just a little bit further and a little bit higher and a little bit past this bridge.

36:19And it says once you get up above this bridge, you'll be fine.

36:22And there's just kind of this questioning, is this it?

36:27Is this the danger we were worried about?

36:29And it felt like everything was fine.

36:32But in the rush to leave camp, the group separates.

36:37With half of the party yet to arrive at the bridge, conditions rapidly start to change.

36:43All of the rain had stopped.

36:44But then we watched the water rise and rise.

36:48The hair on the back of your neck kind of stands up a little bit.

36:51And you say, something's going on, I need to start moving.

36:55We have to really get to high ground.

36:57So then we ended up walking up this plateau at least like 30, 40 feet above the original ground spot that we were on.

37:04And then at that water burst over that bank.

37:11All right, this is intense.

37:12Members of our group that ended up getting separated from their spouse at that point.

37:16And the river had just divided everybody.

37:23The trees are going!

37:24In just a few moments, the pathway is entirely engulfed by the flowing rapids, leaving Clayton, Shelley, and the rest of the group stunned and terrified.

37:38And we ended up watching the whole flood come through.

37:45I can't believe that just missed us and just passed us.

37:48And once that kind of died down, we knew that we were safe.

37:55So we were relieved that our group was all back together finally.

38:01As the group start to hike upwards back towards the village, it becomes clear that this isn't an isolated incident.

38:09So further up the canyon, it had come down hard.

38:14Half of the Siobai Falls went from one of the prettiest things I've ever seen to this just disgusting reddish-brown mud.

38:26It's like this is just an impressive amount of power just coming down this canyon.

38:35Eventually, the group managed to hike their way back up to the village, where locals had set up an emergency shelter in a nearby school.

38:43But they are still trapped within the canyon.

38:48We were also told that the whole hike in was completely washed out.

38:54The following day, the group were finally able to get a helicopter out of the canyon.

39:01Like, wow. Like, that was every emotion that you could imagine.

39:11Once you finally got there, it was like touching that ground was like, oh my gosh, I'm safe.

39:17We learned a lot of lessons that weekend. Things can change very quickly.

39:22Mother Nature has its own agenda, and we for sure saw it that weekend.

39:28Yeah, absolutely.

39:34Back in Florida, 60 kilometers up the coast from where Danielle and Robert's house was trashed by a tornado,

39:41another of Hurricane Milton's whirlwinds has hit the city of Stewart.

39:48All right, we'll take you in.

39:50This time destroying the home of Joanne and John Coleus.

39:54This is the TV family type room.

39:58Actually, when we first saw the tornado, we saw it at this window here.

40:02Joanne was in here watching the TV, and I was actually sitting in a chair by the front door

40:08because I had my phones watching the radar and knew it was coming from that direction.

40:15John and I made the decision that the pantry was going to be the safe space.

40:20TV was going off all the time with the weather alerts, and then I started seeing the debris.

40:28Light debris at first, not anything big and heavy, but it was flying by.

40:34Obviously, it was debris off, like shingles off of, off of buildings and stuff.

40:41Ching, ching, ching, ching, ching, you know, on top of our roof and on the side.

40:45Ching, ching, ching.

40:47And that's what was, that's what you could hear at first.

40:50And then when Joanne saw the debris, she came running in there, and by that time I, my ears started popping.

40:57And I knew that was the, I knew that was big trouble.

41:02And I yelled, tornado, pantry.

41:06We were calling the dog to try to get the dog to come in the pantry, and the dog wouldn't come.

41:12I closed the door of the pantry, couldn't get the dog.

41:16Things got worse and worse.

41:18You just felt this pressure in the house moving.

41:20The house just, it was like a person, does a giant sneeze.

41:27It's like when you sneeze, you go, ha-choo, right?

41:31And the house just went up.

41:33You can see the actual ceilings that start to rise, and then ha-choo.

41:40Ceiling just came down.

41:42It was violent to the ground.

41:45Just didn't know what to expect next.

41:48If we walk out of this pantry, is a wall going to fall on us?

41:51Is there another tornado behind it?

41:54It's intimidating.

41:55You just don't know what's going to happen next.

42:02When it was over, everything was so quiet and still.

42:09Then, you know, the whole thing lasted like 45 seconds or so after that.

42:13We thought the dog was probably gone.

42:16All of a sudden, over here, some of this insulation started moving.

42:20I came over and dug it out.

42:22She was seven months old at the time.

42:24Yeah.

42:26I think that the roof lifted, and when it lifted, it popped the drywall and cracked the drywall.

42:36It looked like it was snowing.

42:38It just kind of trickled down like snow.

42:40Big snow piles all over our furniture, all over our dog.

42:48It was just everywhere.

42:49Hundreds of houses in the area were damaged.

42:54And on the couple street, four homes were completely destroyed.

43:00Hours later, Hurricane Milton made landfall, causing up to $85 billion worth of damage.

43:08And tragically, taking over 30 lives.

43:10I think it's important to make sure, never take a storm for granted.

43:17John and I feel we are lucky to survive, and we're lucky, you know, we didn't lose our dog.

43:22That day in Florida was absolutely historical.

43:24I don't think Florida has ever seen a day like that in their history before.

43:33Mother Nature is extremely powerful, and nothing that you can do can alter its course.

43:39One thing that I think is, you prepare for the weather, you prepare for storms.

43:52Mother Nature is going to do what she wants to do.

43:54This was maybe a once-in-a-lifetime event.

44:00Something that hopefully we'll never see again.

44:03We'll never see again.

44:17The weather.

44:19The pulse of the earth.

44:22And an uncontrollable force.

44:25Our island is in trouble.

44:27As global temperatures rise.

44:30This is my real last time, I'm in my house.

44:32The weather is getting more extreme.

44:35It's an unsupportable force.

44:37And even more catastrophic.

44:41It's the most active I've ever seen it.

44:43With devastating consequence.

44:46You better go! It's coming!

44:48Proving once again.

44:52That we are no match for the world's deadliest weather.

44:58Oh dear God.

45:02That's it, Bill.

45:03That means it's rushing.

45:06Those takes the pack of space, but if you're still happy, you don't remember to be in the United States.

45:09It's chyba today.

45:11First of all, ת estudious as you can.

45:12Proving once again.

45:14You'll never see the slate.

45:15That's why we can have their spirit and console finishing up.

45:16Only once again.

45:18What you've ever heard is, you'll never see anything so размер delta years.
