Hurricane Ivan Storm Surge Video - Pensacola Beach, Florida

http://www.UltimateChase.com
Mike Theiss of Ultimate Chase documented Hurricane Ivan on Pensacola Beach Barrier Island in a high rise building. Watch as Mike shares his experience and imagine if that was "You" all alone in the pitch dark in a building completely surrounded by rushing water as a Cat 3 Hurricane makes landfall. This was an extremely creepy and scary documentation being trapped inside a building with no power and wind screaming like a monstor outside. Mike was trapped on the island for 2 days before being able to get a ride via boat back to the main land....

OK, I gotta say it: Are you NUTS?!! I'm glad you were safe, I'm glad you were on the 4th floor of a concrete block building. But it wouldn't be the first concrete block building to collapse in a hurricane! Jiminy cricket!

@arpeejay haha, Thanks. Watch the Hurricane Charley and Hurricane Katrina videos on my channel as well, haha ! I'm not nuts, I'm just crazy !

Dude you have the best Hericane footage on the web.

[UltimateChase]

@LakeTahoeWeather Thanks !



[UltimateChase]

Haha, Glad you recognize this. People usually talk more about the video I shot in Katrina and Charley but in fact Hurricane Ivan was the only time I've been scared. I was alone and stranded on an island in a building that was storm surge all the way to the second floor AT NIGHT !!! I was the only one in my building and all the wind noises blowing through the elevator shaft and cracks in the doors and the shaking of the building with every wave I WAS SCARED for sure. Only my flashlight, haha

@UltimateChase When was this?

[14freedomfirst]

@14freedomfirst Forgot to add For those who are curious about Ivan & the daylight footage they might see of it, It was well into the night when the worst part of the storm hit.

[14freedomfirst]

@Ultimatechase I agree Ivan was a scary hurricane, I have lived in Pensacola since 1983 & have been through every hurricane except hurricane Erin in 95. Ivan was by far the worst. It was Complete blackness when it hit, No power, Streetlights, Moon or stars. Looking outside when it hit was like looking with your eye's closed except when lightning struck. The sounds were unbelievable, Tree's snapping in two, Buildings coming apart & the ferocious sound of the wind, All in complete blackness.
