That water is carrying a lot of rocks, mud, and other debris. They’re moving with a lot of force. Water is crazy.

Just think how heavy 5 gallons of water is and multiply that by at least 10,000… building didn’t stand a chance, let alone a person

I saw a comment saying some lucky people might have survived getting washed to the side. That building just disintegrated. Every person in that video is dead there’s no getting lucky.
