I have to say, flooding of the basement car park doesn't really mean flooding the entire building, if you know what flooding means. Yes, the floors will be badly damaged by the water, including all the furniture and equipment but to say flooding the entire building would mean the entire building is under water. The damage is really serious, from looking at the footage.
