Be grateful for what you have. Stop complaining about the trivial things in your life, for there are people who are truly suffering.
My God it left nothing
Why no sounds?
Drone footage, probably picked up only static.
b’cuz everybody dead😅
@g00gler are you normal?? What is so funny to you? 🤬
Taxt right off. 👋🥂
Really lol 😂
PM Modi reading 📖speech campaign in loksabha parliament house & minister, chairman of house😪😪😪 no peace 🕊️ speech on mainpur 🔥 india party boycott PM of India modi speech
This isn’t the place to spew your propaganda bs.
Hi
Oh my God. I knew it was bad, but this… Complete devastation.
Man. Look at that perfect surf.
This is devastating ! My heart gos to people of Hawaii / Lahaina 😪
Extremely sad. went there in April of 2023, and it was one of the most beautiful places i’ve been too. Now seeing it burned down makes my heart sink 😢
Right, it looks like a garbage dump
Agreed!
I went to Hawaii on Spring Break in College in the late 80s:
*Most Beautiful place on Earth!*
I hope theg rebuild quickly!
What caused this
@Mike TexasMade in America?
Yes
White colonialism guilt 😂
@Mike Texas Uh oh! Not the Jewish space lasers again!
@Jayed Atredes Made by the Deep State
DEW weapons
American made, I assume?
Indeed
This is so surreal!….my home state…life is tenuous….just unimaginable hardships…maybe we can stop funding other countries wars….and actually take care of American citizens.
Lol , as if funding for the defense of Ukraine would go anywhere but into republicans donors pockets. If we didn’t spend that tiny portion of the budget helping them fight for freedom. Never let a tragedy go to waste though eh?
Ukraine didn’t burn your island down, go back and help them rebuild if you’re really from there and care so much.
@Travis
Don’t you have a drag queen story hour for little kids to get to?
@Jimmy Tony You mean one of those events where fully clothed drag queens read stories to kids and tell them it’s ok to be different. That they can accept themselves whoever they are and that there’s no need to hate and fear people who are different? Sounds awesome sign me up.
D.E.W.
This is a direct attack from our military using DEW weapons. Not a natural fire. Don’t be deceived. Our government is the cause of this destruction!
Make Hawaii Brown Again!!
Your own brown governor poisons our communities with monsanto’s pesticides for decades now. Oops.
0:58 – I’m very curious about all these burned cars on Front Street. Some were parked and unoccupied, but what happened to the people in the ones that were being driven? I have read and watched two interviews with men who said they had jumped out of their car and either crouched on the other side of the seawall and stayed there, or had actually gotten into the ocean, floated on a piece of wood for a time, then managed to get back to shore. The latter guy did this with his wife and their three small children.
You keep driving!
The faster you drive the wind will extinguish the fire and you just keep going.
You have to keep the windows rolled up too.
Let’s see you demonstrate that. @Guy Being a Guy
I don’t get how they can’t put out fires
Really? Learn about them, you’ll find out why it is almost impossible to put out a wild fire. There are many factors that affect the possibility of success in putting out a fire.
These types of fires you simply can’t put out they spread too fast and are too unpredictable to be close the best way to stop them is by removing the fuel by cutting and removing vegetation via hand tools,using heavy machinery to removes trees, actually making a smaller controlled fire near the wildfire “fighting fire with fire” this will remove all fuel to the fire and it will slowly burn out its sad that this is our best chance at fighting wildfires this size but sometimes you have to cut your loses and save what you can
Everybody is living so close on top of each other so the fires spread rapidly. They probably dont have an adequate fire department either.
I think it’s the scale of the fire you don’t understand. It’s like asking why an ant doesn’t just stop the car from running it over.
All that water right there too. Crazy life
Usually a building fire is sprayed with water and extinguished by firefighters – but that didn’t happen here, and thus everything that was burnable was consumed. When that happens, temperatures get so hot that even steel will warp and deform, as can be seen with some of the structural frames that are still in place here. You can also see the deformation of some of the vehicle bodies as well.
Didn’t know that.
You are very smart!
Funny how trees are still green…
The irony of so much water nearby while the place burns to crisp
That sheet looks like Apple Maps when it first came out 😅
Wow
What started fire?
I heard it was sparking power lines downed by the wind.
@Mike Reyher
I heard it was scalar tech DEW
Pray for Lahiana
Uncle Joe is about to print up a few billion to help out.
Our new climate allows the CO₂ laden atmosphere to absorb more water at higher temperatures, which dries out the vegetation to the point of fire tinder. The vegetation burns everything to the ground in high winds, and when the Jet Stream meanders a bit, an atmospheric river develops to cause a deluge equivalent to a thousand-year flood. This is a pattern that will repeat itself for at least 100 years if we stop producing all CO₂ and methane today because the heat accumulated to this point will still decompose the previously frozen tundra and release methane hydrates from permafrost and ocean deposits to keep the temperature higher than normal.
Dear Tom, respectfully climate change is natural. It cannot be stopped no matter what you do and slowing it will only delay what we’re seeing today we need to adapt. This is not the hottest time on earth. Do you research, sir this is not a result of climate change success always! Dr. D.
Stop with the propaganda already
Stop the heat strokes, fires, floods, tornadoes and hurricanes and I’ll stop preaching@Jimmy Tony
My goodness that is so sad. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Gods judgement on the land. My condolences to those who lost their lives and homes.
Directed energy weapon?
So sad, it was such a pretty town and market
So what or who started this fire, who ever started it should be locked up for life
You think you would put the Creator behind bars, boy O boy 😅😅😅
Looks COMPLETELY TORCHED!
Should produce a lot of jobs for the next few years.
Building material sales should help the economy too.
It didn’t help a lot of these building were old and stick built. This is something that could happen in key west too. Its sad. These great old sea towns you never expect something like this to happen.
This is what America is going to look like with Bidenonomics. No worries after Sleepy Joe Biden changes the weather for the people in Arizona he’ll rebuild this town and Ukraine. He’s probably going to fix Ukraine 1st to protect the Biden investment in Ukrainian oil Burisma.
HAARP SISTEM AND SOTONE TEŠKO BOLESNIH MOZGOVA!!!!!!
What happened!
How did this “Fire” begin?
Is the most important question…
@Ibi KONGO L
DEW
How???? It looks like a war zone….
Directed energy wep. Haarp
It seems that the significant dryness was the cause, but the extent of the devastation from this fire is truly distressing.
it was an act of war https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idKZTWrtgl0
The creator now destroys, and you call it wild. Get ready for MOUNT ZION.
The native population has struggled. To regain control of their land. And to keep their heritage alive. This is another attempt by big companies. To exploit their land. An eradicate the natives.
Due to this accidental disaster. Lots of landowners will have to leave, and their land will be up for grabs for the big companies.
Why hasn’t B. Husain O. commented on the greatest disaster in his “home state’s” history? He claims to be Hawaiian right? Don’t he and Big Mike have one of their ill-gotten mansions in Hawaii?
Belinda Obama only comments on occurrences in his country of birth.
“The sweetest sound I know is the Muslim call to prayer”
😢
Very sad. Praying for everyone involved.
A wildfire isnt in a city or urban ir rural areas.
A wildfire is in a wilderness and a forestfire is in a forest.
Funny how the actual wildlife, trees, are still green.
Iwo jima
Pearl harbor
That is not a wilderness
And the actual trees are still green
We can rebuild it.. we have the technology
heartbreaking
0:53 Those ditched vehicles are a signature image of this disaster.
hawaii is not real this is CGI. PROPAGANDA. HOAX.
Of course. All the normal people will be moved out. And guess whos going to move in? Big money people, who will buy up the land from these desperate people. All the fires this year is more than a little suspicious if you ask me.
Hey. Now you look like parts of Ukraine. Hmm.
After spending a wimter on Maui its satisfying to see a bunch of better than you snooty rich people loose everything. They have money they’ll get insurance money and move on. Maybe that wont be so entitled and spoiled rotten after this experience.
The news is quiet on how did the boats burn on water
And how the trees stayed green
Direct energy wep
You can Thank Black Rock investment for this Along with the U.S Military’s Lasers and Directed Energy Weapons and China just said they mastered their own lasers (Google it) so I’m guessing this was the U.S military’s way of testing their weapons
Where are the fire trucks and police cars?
WHERE ARE THE VIDEOS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT FIGHTING THE FIRE!?!
DEW !! That is the only answer!!!
A forestfire that forgets to burn trees and just melts metal and incinerates concrete. Okay.
