Driving around the christchurch red zone pt2 1-08-2011

Thanks for the video. My last six months in Christchurch I was sent to work in my company's CBD branch and after years of avoiding the central city, I fell in love with it. Now my work is an empty block, as is most of Colombo Street that I walked everyday.

Couldn't watch the whole video. Way too hard to see my city in ruins. My children will never see Christchurch the way that I did.

[slaughtered777]

Absolutely crushing to see such a beautiful little city like this :( Miss ya chch cant wait to see you back up and running again.

Very sad to see what the earthquakes have done to Christchurch. I hope everyone who has survived the earthquakes has received the support they need from friends and neighbors. I feel so fortunate that I have never had to see something like this happen to my hometown (or any town in America).

[chchtemptress]

thank you for the footage. Im lost for words now. Much luv xo

[missincognito1]

looks like a war zone... breaks my heart to see the state it is in.

[jarvram]

Thanks so much for this. Haven't been back to NZ for over 2 years and it takes footage like this to help me 'adjust' to what I'm going to see when I come back. It also helps me realise what champions the everyday people of Canterbury are for going through all this.......every day.

[mckemcke]

[Jordzter91]

[DoctorCuriosity]

It's funny the way my brain still went "Hey!" when you turned the wrong way down Madras Street :-)

[edwealleans]

Thank you for doing this mate :) Can't see why we can't go in on foot, almost nothing left to fall on us.

[TheJMemonic]

Thanks for that, this is what CERA and the council should be doing so we have a picture of what is happening.

[ratcats]

great HQ for 480p!!

[evas99]

The music makes it even harder too watch, not in a bad way but very emotional...thanks.

[philo82nz]

[TopDingoMan]

Well done. Even more destruction than I thought there was. Thanks for uploading.

Awesome sound tracks on both videos.
