Is there not public flash flood knowledge in this area?

Це Америка - країна можливостей !

Your kids are super annoying.

Wish I had bought a Ram back then. The price of them has nearly doubled. Just like real estate. Guy is also forutnate to have so many children.

Those saying that the family isn’t at fault for not checking the forecast because these storms “pop up out of nowhere” don’t know what they’re talking about and don’t properly understand risk assessment. It was the start of summer monsoon season. Surely the forecast that day warned of the risk of thunderstorms/flash floods. They and the others there that day knowingly/unknowingly put themselves in danger, and they’re all lucky to be alive. Ignorance is no excuse, and all too often it gets people killed.

I'm not going to s*** on you cuz a lot of people have already shitt on you enough. But it would be nice to hear you s*** on yourself a little bit.

Are you A Robot? You sound like one. Apologies IF you are not a Robot.

Idiots will always idiot. Way to put your family and others in danger captain America.

Absolute stupidity

Ah you're in my old stomping grounds! Bridge Bay and Fishing Bridge❤ I'm homesick. I ran into a moose right about where you are it looks like. Years ago though. '97 maybe. Its been a while! Thanks for sharing❤🎉

16:38 now that's a turn. Great piloting on that bell

"we realized we were sitting in a gigantic bathtub" - man says calmly whilst filming as his very aware children are warning him to stop in the background..

The King Douche of getting content.

I hear slot canyons are nice this time of year

Any sign of rain, turn around. We have experience flash floods in other parts of Utah.

I watched this before I had a baby just over a year ago. It’s interesting to recognize the mindset I was in then versus now. Having a baby has made me even more risk adverse than I was before. I saw that car floating down the river and all I could think was oh my God what would I do if that happened to me and my baby was in the back of the car. how helpless I would feel

When i was 12 I was already more responsible than this idiot.

“Honestly, the kids have been such a stinking pain.” Dude nearly killed his family.

The kids talk waaaaaay too much. Dad will never be a commentator for PBS.

This man is the very picture of the term “Turon”. What an arrogant person to put himself & family through the “experience” of a flash flood. He is very fortunate that he & his family were not statistics. He is the very type of person & situation that the Park Rangers dread seeing & talk about. Rude!

Had enough time to say a prayer but not enough time to check the weather. 💀

I don’t think this guy owned up to this situation being entirely his fault once. “We didn’t have time to check the weather.” He drove there. He had time. But he refuses to accept that he is an idiot. “Our footage will help aid in the rescue” “My family will be so happy to see me.” Yeah, pretty sure this dude is a narcissist. He even says the gorge almost killed his family. HE DID. By being stupid and irresponsible. I’m not sure a video has ever made me this angry.

This guy speaks as if anybody should be listening to him.

Man, she has one big nose

If there is a next time make sure the family is in safe condition is

Definitely a highly anxiety video! I’m grateful you recorded it and let us in to your vulnerable situation. My mom passed away on a trail in Capital Reef National Park in 2013 so I am personally aware of the Mother Nature perils out there. Accidents happen. Ignore the rude comments.

Hey it’s gonna get worse around that corner!!……Oh ok so should we just park here & step out then!? 🙄

You’re a disaster waiting to happen. All the gear - and no idea.

In Korea, they have "frash froods" which can be equarry dangerous.

Something disturbing about this. Especially dad commentary. Fun family day in the middle of a disaster! Assume some people didn't survive.

9:11 why didn’t they roll up their windows ??

The kids are just feeding off their mom, and she needs to chill the F out. JC

Extraordinary that he takes time to present his situation without focusing on his family, ridiculous. Some people should simply not be parents.

Why don't the park rangers close the entrance if they know a storm is coming?

You and your wife look like identical twins.

You need to invest in high lift jacks bud...you wouldn't need help getting unstuck with those. Glad you all are alive.

What was the bill for the helicopter ride?

You can thank God you made it out. I'm not just talking. Like literally.... God saved you. Be careful.... denying that fact.... He might allow you in another situation and it might not work out for you.

Yay Ram

Bruh. This guy.

Very interesting reading through the comments. I had no idea the world had so many know-it-all experts that live life pointing their finger at others in their shoulda, coulda, woulda world.

Most people don't

As some random moron watching RUclips videos, I can say with *authority* that you should never make any mistakes or misjudgments. It’s why I’ve never made any bad calls in my entire life, because I know not to make mistakes! It’s simple really. Im just glad I was able to comment on this video so that everyone can learn to never get caught in a significantly more serious situation than they had initially judged. Just judge it to be really bad while watching a video about it 2 years later, and then make that judgement retroactively in time! Easy peasy! I am very intelligent.

You should have kept the biggest boy to help you with getting the truck unstuck and company.

The smart think to do is get to high ground?! 🥴

Actually, No cell service in most of this area so it’s difficult to get weather. Changes very quickly.

I love city folks

"How'd you get out dad !??" "I piled up a bunch of rocks where the truck was!" *he says, to ashamed to admit he had nothing better to do than stack rocks while waiting for a road crew to recover his "offroad vehicle" off of a little pile of dirt*

If I were the kids, I'd be pissed at my dad. The eldest kid says "thats why they say dont hike in the rain, but DAD was like 'adventure' " @6:40. Smartest one in the family, and nobody listened. You were warned via signage and common knowledge to NOT BE THERE IN THE RAIN. You didnt even need to check the weather report, even though it would be silly not to. And THEN to act like you know exactly what to do in this situation while your road tires barley got you above the water and stuck in what looks like the second most vulnerable spot in the gourge. Just.... Dont act like this was an unavoidable incident. It could have easily been prevented with an ounce of caution and situational awareness. I hope you learn from this.

Owens family, I appreciate your enthusiasm and creativity in making these videos. We also enjoy recording our adventures in Colorado and Utah. My mother in law lives in Beaver Dam, near Mesquite, so this video hits close to home! Keep it up! Luis
