Thrilling video of yacht sinking as man escapes death in Australia flood

[MIATAFRIEND]

This brave skipper didn't left his vessel like cptn Schettino did (Costa Concordia).

[skurk1234]

Its look like it was his home, poor man.

[TheKcsmithy]

[simysimss]

[ManyGoMad]

Thats really sad...looked like his home!

[bebeheuy]

I am very happy to see the vidoe Surging waters on the Brisbane River caused a yacht to sink, taking its skipper with it from you, hopefully the others also are happy for You

[Mjhond]

I Love The Video Surging waters on the Brisbane River caused a yacht to sink, taking its skipper with it. It Can Increase My Knowledge

[AntoMelta]

[imegatrone]

I Really Like The Video Surging waters on the Brisbane River caused a yacht to sink, taking its skipper with it From Your

Your Video Orion broke free of its mooring and ran into floating debris, the damaged vessel began to take on water. Is Very Useful Sharing

[volkscom]

[krazbar1]

@volkscom Wtf dick head? Fuck off your not welcome here like 50 people died in these floods including children and your making a joke about it?... that yacht is also not shit its a rare model worth 500k so Fuck off your dumb cunt.

[jent888]

ok why did they not steer away or something cause they had time for it if the people have time to pick there camera's why cant the crew steer?

[krazbar1]

@jent888 ill be happy to anser thatm simple fact is that it sa huge flood .. things are under water tree's building other boats ... and dead bodies he hit somthing and got a hole in the boat.. he lost controll and nearly got killed

[jent888]

[malcolmmorin]

[MegaNarkic]

ahahahahahha

[cipfom]

[seantelle1]

Shame

[outdoorsmen36]

Why can't y'all just get along and stop cussing each other out

[nickolastd21]

i hope he gets a new boat soon

[akulabite]

that guy is one luck SOB.

[booandogie]

ORION still hasn't been found ., she's somewhere buried in the river ...sadly :-)

Russell has nightmares about it and is still coping with the event .

- Owner

[Rubydooby121212]

That man could have died omg!

[GameBeard]

As is indicated by the comments, this world is going downhill very quickly.

You all need to pull your heads out of your arses.

Either that, or commit suicide. It would be better for everyone.

[FLYBOYproductions94]

atleast no one laughed in this vid , every other one i've watched has some asshole laughing at some persons car and home get ripped appart, ( "To the people who laugh at these vids i say FUCK YOU you assholes")

[XTHE3ENDX]

oh my god

[unreal3010]

why did it start sinking, and what did it hit.

[MrSafetymeeting]

@unreal3010 it hit a sunken boat

[WPSRBIJA]

Oh my God

[useit90]

Poor guy

[MorganFTWWW]

It's not a yacht, it's a fucking boat.

[D12DOOM]

@MorganFTWWW Well I guess for Australia... It's a yacht.

[rongenman]

one race......HUMAN

[101Professor]

HAHAHA

[CarpMania10]

@101Professor hoe you die

[101Professor]

@CarpMania10 I Will One Day- I Hope Its Something Epic Like This

[PawSoxMom]

God bless our brothers and sisters in Australia.

[n0kia1]

@ireland20100 not for people like you dipshit :D

[n0kia1]

@ireland20100 do you know what's uncalled for? Telling a guy to go fuck his own MOTHER, and then telling people to thumbs up the suggestion? Wow where were you educated, in a prison? Why'd you choose to diss my mother? Is it because you don't have a mother? Probably.

[QuiksiIver]

What an idiot. If he died he'd have earned it. A hunk of fiberglass and plastic is not worth my life, I would not go near a sinking ship in floodwaters.

[n0kia1]

@ireland20100 OH OH OH thumbs up THUMBS UP YOUR ASS YOU FUCK FACE hahah oh man You were just asking for that. Notice everyone on this page doesn't like you. Take a nice look before you even think of responding. Let's see if you have the balls you neutered bastard. HAHA.

[GuydoRitchie]

How can you just like or dislike these kind of video-footage!? Great respect for the man who tried to help! Great dislike for the cursing comments and those who dare to judge about these kinds of situation! I am really considering to take an inland-flight to help these people! I might be a backpacker for now but this does help motivate to just help the countrymen! No matter of skin-colour, no matter of money or not, no matter of gender, no matter of age!

[ravetunes]

eat shit fucker!!!

[Q78vwleam]

@ireland20100 You ignorant fool. These are good people trying to do the right thing. You don't know what you are talking about and are a sad specimen of the human race. You don't know the story so keep your pathetic opinions to yourself.

[infobelow]

Did the yatch drag/pull the boats under.

[benjaminjamesrodda]

@ireland20100 you're an asshole. seriously. why are you even classed as a human.

[Alex1M6]

The yacht is like "your coming with me".

[n0kia1]

@ireland20100 what the fuck does this have to do with this video, and I fuckin hate people asking to thumbs up their comments, damn attention whores.

[imN0Ttheone]

In Soviet Russia we call this submarine .

[swiFtey08]

what did it hit ?

[SharkDude1]

The reason why everybody is hating this is because of THIS GUY in the video, and not you aussies. He's in a yacht trying to save it. and fails. He is putting his life in danger because of a boat. Now admit it, you Aussies would be all over this too if you saw an American trying to save his stupid boat druring a disaster like this. Trust me Austraila, we feell for you people, but idiots like this need to think more about living than a boat.

[Q78vwleam]

@SharkDude1 I think you need to know the full story before you make such comments. There is much more to this than you know. This boat had just snapped its moorings as it was trying to be secured. One of these persons is a very close friend of mine and was comming to another in need. They were trying to secure the boat to stop any more damage down river as it would have continued floating if not hitting a channel marker as the video was shot. Don't make assumptions these are good caring people.

[mcp666]

The Playstation Generation, treat them with the contempt they deserve.

Good to read that he was rescued, none of those watching had a script handy to ensure a good soundtrack but then this isn't Hollywood.

[rhyboy1]

why is everyone hating on australia and shit?

It flooded, peopel lost lives and possessions.. end of story, there is no one to blame :S

[tseekr379]

@rhyboy1 sure there is, blame haarp and the bastards behind it.

[p058720235]

@Rabbitasusual But Rabbit, Why would you help? Didn't you state that Australians deserve what they got??

Man, you are one big pile of shit! You are a waco master. I wish more Aussies will see what you really are!

[thomasallport]

Just carm down and have a beer aye. old mate needs a few after this one.

[mymumissostupid]

I can't imagine what was going through his mind at the end.

[ButterOnMyBiscuit]

oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god......i hate bitches

[GameLevelEditor]

Oh Her God and a crowd of passive observers going ooooh and ahhhhh like they're watching circus entertainment. Just as George Carlin says people love watching a good disaster.

[JazzHill]

@GameLevelEditor How about you stop judging people and go look at yourself? You think they wouldn't have helped if they could've? I'm sure you would have swum out to save them (and then probably died yourself)

[JazzHill]

@GameLevelEditor also, please don't associate yourself with the great George Carlin, you insult his memory with such comments

[GameLevelEditor]

@JazzHill Mr Troll and make up your comments about the video itself and not on others comments.

[JazzHill]

@GameLevelEditor Learn English.

[GameLevelEditor]

@JazzHill I have. What is your malfunction could it be that you require some more information to complete your neuron transmissions or is it that you are in need of energy to get your power back? pfff

[JazzHill]

@GameLevelEditor Did you just try and say 'neuron transmissions' to sound smart?

I love 13 year olds.

[sailesh1231]

What a funny comments for this video

[drifter105]

at the end guy was like aahh shit!

[maxpower978]

Them niggers probably stole that boat in the first place.

[JazzHill]

@maxpower978 You make the world a worse place.

[maxpower978]

@JazzHill I don't make the world a worse place. The niggers do, stealing shit and killing people.

[jafarkay]

@maxpower978 why u hate black people so much.... i mean im not here to change your beliefs or anything but you surely cant have met every black person in the world....... dnt be so quick to judge evryone. if that was the case WE'D HAVE SAID ALL WHITE PEOPLE WERE LIKE HITLER... which is FAAAAR FRom reality....

[n0kia1]

@jafarkay you probably SHOULD change his beliefs before he goes an kills some innocent black person

[jafarkay]

@n0kia1 nah let him go ahead with his hatred. i cant even bother with him.......its his choice who he chooses to hate....

[Q78vwleam]

@maxpower978 You fool. 1 person lost everything he had and one was trying to help. Grow up and earn to be human you fool.

[Q78vwleam]

@maxpower978 You fool. 1 person lost everything he had and one was trying to help. Grow up and learn to be human you fool.

[LouTheMetalhead]

im thrilled

[ekbsis2011]

I cant believe people like you exist. U know who u are, the ones slagging the poor people in this and many other videos. You should be utterly ashamed of yourselves. I'd be interested to see how u stupid fuckers cope if your whole lives were washed away. Probably the type who would only care about where your benefits were coming from. I seriously hope you all rot.

[welcomegohome]

@milad2007halo3 shut up...

[seriouslyWeird]

what the fuck is wrong with people in this comment section

[Solon6633]

how can you people be so evil....

do you not value human life?... where did your bitterness and hardness of heart come from?????

[tseekr379]

@Solon6633 you can thank their bitterness and cruelty on the american mainstream media!!

[Tyrfingr]

@Solon6633 You'll be amazed how eventless and sheltered lives can quickly turn into complete and total ignorance. I see it everyday.

[penguinmaster7]

@Solon6633 i don't value human life. i was laughing at the retard for not leaving the yacht in the first place. what a loser.

[benwebb93]

@penguinmaster7 You probably think you're quite the badass sitting there at your computer you pathetic little nerd.

[penguinmaster7]

@benwebb93 nerds are awesome. i don't know where you got the pathetic nerd idea.

[benwebb93]

@penguinmaster7 Lol I think everyone would agree that the word 'nerd' has entirely negative connotations... Sorry but you just sounded like an asshole with ur last comment and nerd is the standard line of attack which has the most chance of being true when attacking trolls. Nameeen? x

[homskoult]

@penguinmaster7 I don't know, maybe its because I've seen them upside down in garbage cans. Or heard them screaming because someone locked them in there locker. Or maybe its because we see them with their hair dripping wet, from their last toilet swerlley.

[TheNightgen]

@Solon6633 look around in this crazy world ;)

[astalavisitor]

@Solon6633 Unfortunately it comes from America.

[2WhatDaHecKK2]

@astalavisitor NOT AMERICA. ;)

[2WhatDaHecKK2]

@Solon6633 It comes from the internet and automatic troll defense systems. 

[thanos97]

@Solon6633 From america-legalize it

[ElCajoia]

This guy and his boat is the perfect analogy for the US, the guy represents joe average american citizen, the boat is our economy.

[xaibatadada]

OH MY GOD OMG OMG

[code3paris]

Thumbs up if you were hoping he'd go down with it.

[SAPPERsurvivialism]

ozzies eat floods on their pancakes...that guy was like meh...boats sinking....whateva.

[racerxl600r]

I love how the lady is yelling "Oh My God."

Australians don't believe in God, not really since they are demonic baby killers(abortion), homeo lovers and gun grabbers.

That is why the ruskies, and chinaman can so easily strip their country of it's wealth.

The lady should be yelling, "Oh my satan."

[GREENBINGBONG]

@racerxl600r aussies are the worst of the worst, cocky, show off cunts who go around all over the world saying how fucking awesome they are, let us pray their whole fucking country = waterwold. ....go sharks, crocodiles and snakes.......hey dont call on the UN to help, maybe mik dundee will come along...lol

[MrStoneClark]

@GREENBINGBONG You're an idiot dude!

[rag5206]

@GREENBINGBONG Yes we are awesome the Olympic medal count proves that. Thousands of Aussie volunteers are streaming in to help our mates in trouble. Heaps of countries around the world are offering help even poor countries who want to thank OZ. Thank you to our mates around the world! By the way loser what shit hole do you come from?

[rag5206]

@rag5206 Forgot to mention the Sydney Olympics were voted the BEST EVER how did your country rate. Shit its hard to be humble when your from God's Country!

[GREENBINGBONG]

@rag5206 dont help ozzy mother fuckers, they are just gator bait.

cunt bastards, drown you dirty mother fucking whore. drown.

[SUGARPOP73]

@GREENBINGBONG maybe one day you will be next...and you won't like insensitive people making comments like the one you just have said.Australians are exactly like you,same dreams, same needs,same feelings...

[GREENBINGBONG]

@SUGARPOP73 hey tell that to the indian students that your fucking bastards stab, kill and murder, btw i am NOT from INDIA.

[SUGARPOP73]

@GREENBINGBONG I don't know what are you talking about?What indian students did we stab and kill?You don't know where I'm from so don't patronize me,remember we live in a world where people move and speak more than one lenguage,speaking english doesn't make english.

[fathos69]

@GREENBINGBONG dont take it out on others just because u hate your self..!

[democide03]

@GREENBINGBONG bastard child.

[roycpc464]

@racerxl600r lol Nice statement, it could be possibly that Satan had some other type of scum to deal with, and God that works in mysterious ways may have thought “I hear in the name of God cries of despair; O WELL”.

I guess non-believers could always try yelling in desperate situations “I’m an atheist” and then we can see what Satan has in store for them unlike this situation.

[JazzHill]

@racerxl600r Go fuck your sister you creepy indoctrinated imbecile

[meltingEyeballs]

Looks like some 3rd world countries in the Africa.

[TAMYCRON]

Everytime this area has flooded there has been a total lunar eclipse. Look it up!

[BOGZASV8MA]

he looks like he was crying on the tip of the yacht.... wow ... how sad he mustve been ...now he is homeless...

[GREENBINGBONG]

@ireland20100 hey dont you wish the sharks would also make a meal out of these fucking trash auzzies along with the crocodiles, hope they put that on U tube lol and lets throw in some jews..lol

[GREENBINGBONG]

hey dont you wish the sharks would also make a meal out of these fucking trash auzzies along with the crocodiles, hope they put that on U tube lol and lets throw in some jews..lol

[MonkeyMagic88]

That is one lucky bastard... stupid , but very lucky. I hope he has a good insurance plan.

[OmarSuicide]

[Pakistan0000001]

@MrSnotblock

what the fuck happd to u that u gave me a reaction like that ??

[SturmWolfe]

I can't believe how insensitive people are when posting replies.

Laughing at the poor man when the same could happen to you at any moment in your life... What the fuck is wrong with our world? Humans are such scum.

[Nufsed007]

@SturmWolfe I'm afraid this is the world we have all helped to create! even you, by adding to these comments are participating! I'm pretty sure that sooner than we imagine most of us will be eating shit! (metaphorically

[Nufsed007]

@SturmWolfe I'm afraid this is the world we have all helped to create! even you, by adding to these comments are participating! I'm pretty sure that sooner than we imagine most of us will be eating shit! (metaphorically speaking)

[MrDieselpower78]

@SturmWolfe best thing about it is that humans over here have been awesome and working together to help clean up. seeing so many people around to help has restored my faith in humanity to a degree. dont worry about these idiots that laugh about it. they just want the attention themselves. wankers

[TheyAreHere2]

Guys that may be his home. Or he may have been going around the world and went through Australia or he might have inherited it.

[variousiroiro]

noah's ark fail

[BLUEC0RE]

captain goes down with his ship.

I salute you sir!

[lumberjak5010]

Decisions, decisisons, life or boat, life or boat, crap!

[HelmetBlissta]

Where's my bloody medal ?

[anovanov]

man, what a mess

[prshs1]

i liked this video its good

[Cactii101]

At the end you can see the realization of loss. He sits on the hull of the overturned boat as if he's lost everything.

[MarkCrompton007]

What an idiot. You can hear the people early in the incident yelling at him to get off. Does he? No. It is dick heads like this that unnecessarily tie up emergency services where they could be used else where. In a later local tv interview he proudly told the news reporter about 'never give up'. What an idiot.

[doc7474]

@MarkCrompton007 He was trying his hardest for that Darwin award. Almost.

[directorlog]

Very dumb move.

[pacinox2]

OMGaaaaaaaaaaad LOL

[61papazson61]

what a poor english lang! то ли дело русский! - в каждом сюжете оригинальнейшие многоэтажки))

мужик то выжил?

[extrachromosone]

That wasn't so thrilling at all.

[FreshPotatoMafia]

isnt that a sail boat..?

[mavey39]

what a idiot let it go man

[sailesh1231]

You all are mother fuckers ...yours comments are so funny..people are dying here.. you suckers are enjoying. assholes.

[KASPLARFO]

@sailesh1231

Ya FUCK you.

[roycpc464]

That's right, "Oh My God" expected, especially when people find themselves threatened or endangered; all of a sudden people remember there is a God!

[locolalo1364]

@roycpc464 It's a common saying now in days... I say it without the thinking of the flying spaghetti meatball in my head.. I'm pretty sure she did too! The faster you people realize there is no god the quicker we can get to another enlightened period in our history

[roycpc464]

@locolalo1364 The funny thing about YouTube is you will always find somebody to criticise an opinion or belief, but what really counts is whether you take any notice of them or not.

Whether I'm a Christian or not; has no affect how I interpreted certain situations, I cannot say the same for certain other people especially the ones living in the USA, what with all those chemicals they use in the tap water with the intention to kill any brain cells not to mention all those guinea pig vaccines.

[roycpc464]

@locolalo1364 And as for the flying spaghetti and meatballs, whatever turns you on.

Have a nice day as they say in America!

[locolalo1364]

@roycpc464 lol have a nice deluded life.....

[dmanbass]

Looking for one intelligent comment here.... hmmmm? Sad to see someone in such a dangerous predicament and people laughing at them and making jokes. Hide yourself behind your computer and pretend you have no feelings just to appear funny to strangers that don't even care or know you. You know who you are and your conscience will not let you forget. Sleep tight!

[shithustler420]

Goes Out to Save One Boat and Loses Two lmao!

[shithustler420]

He was trying to save his boat man, that understandable even if its a piece of shit lol

[booandogie]

@shithustler420 I own the boat and she wasn't a piece of shit. She had tarps over her as Russell had been working on her and keeping shaded as well as protection from all the rain. What would you know?

[MonkeyMagic88]

@booandogie don't explain yourself to complete and utter fucktards....... I just hope everything works out well for you in the end and that the insurance will do what they should do. No loss of life , and that is the main thing

[pfcwar5150]

WAS THAT THE  USS ECONOMY?????
