02-02-2021 Scituate, MA - Drone shots of massive waves crash into homes, flooded and damaged homes, 

pfffft thats a great rhyme

Exactly In any day this homes will be in the ocean..

It's actually all rock, but nice try.

Yeah, people with a lot of $$ chance it.

A wise man build his house on a mountain (God/Jesus Christ). 😀 I have a friend she lived close to the sea and its sometimes flooded she has to move many times out until the flood is gone and i m like thanks God that you gave me the wisdome to not live close to the water😅.

Lol

Nice

Lolololololol

😆 true!!

So funny!

Incrível para perder tudo que tem e acordar boiando.

Amazingly Stupid is how it looks to me. 😉

And not filmed by some idiot in vertical strip!

I was going to say the same thing, its steady in that wind!

For real!

guessing the picture is steady-cam'd, bet the drone is flippin and floppin

Professionals use a gyro nowadays.

That's what I was thinking!

Myrtle Beach is a shit hole 🕳

You probably wouldn't be a stupid one.

In Charleston, the downtown Battery gets smashed during even the lightest of storms. All those 2 million dollar refurbished Civil War/Colonial homes get flooded and they still live in it

Insurance premiums are assessed according to 'flood zones.' You pay for where you live, others do not. If you can't afford the premiums, you can't afford the house.

Did this ever happen when you were there? What was it like?

@@PseudoEmpathy There were extreme high tides and winter storms. Nothing of this magnitude. That's scary weather.

hmm.. i watched the video 3x, i didn't see your aunt's little house with the "freedom" sign on it at the corner of lighthouse and Rebecca. Seems like they spent a lot of time on Turner Rd

I love that area! I live a few miles west of there. The last time we went, it was a very high tide and there was water under the stilts of a lot of the homes on lighthouse and Rebecca roads

I second that - fantastic video!!

You mean it is time to leave?

Yea ur right leave right now. 😆

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Oh really

lol

More mo eyes than brains

fema hud the government insurance companys what was $2000 is now 2.5 milllion as the saying goes the billion ars chase out the million ars but the middle keeps paying the brunt i seen it happen with my own eyes

You can’t get flood insurance for these homes. And home owners is very high. I would bet that they are owned outright. And the people who own them know the risk

They have awesome views and fresh sea air when the weather good !!! Must be awesome most of the year!!!

@@jamesdaple9951 Living that close to the ocean is no picnic. The salt spray ruins everything in and outside the house. Anything metal will rust or corrode, it gets on everything inside the house....like an oily film. It is murder on any electronics. If you have a car it will eat your car from inside out as well as outside in a very short time. It also kills house paint and roofing. Compared to the damage from salt in snow belt areas, this is WAY worse. I moved from California to Michigan. No Salt, No Sharks, No worries

Exactly. Its just a matter of time before they get washed away so I will take pleasure in watching that happen.

@@scotty6124 why would you take pleasure in that? Insurance will replace but we taxpayers who pay RIN or homeowners are bearing the costs.

@Hydin BidenAhhh but there is where you're wrong! ALL citizens of the United States are paying for these idiots who build so close to the ocean because the insurance companies raise the rates on ALL of us to make up for paying out the rich stupid people who live so close to water. If you want to live that close to the water go buy a damn boat and live on it!

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I live in coastal NC but on the land side of the intercoastal waterway. My insurance rates are minimal compared to those that live on the island side of the waterway because my probability for storm damage is low. Also no one is allowed to build on the ocean front in some towns. There has to be dunes and a certain amount of footage between the high tide mark and the first row of homes to the extent that you can't see homes from the beach. Then you have the entitled ones like these vacation homeowners in my area also. SMH.

..... and they all know this will only get more frequent and more intense.

imagine there Was no water

welcome to florida

😭

There needs to be laws against building this close to the ocean !!!!!!

They are used to it I live near there

She can keep it 😆

I live here , in Scituate, just not as close to the water as she does , lol Scituate is a lovely town very safe. And fun in summer and great schools , it's an ideal place to raise a family if you have the money to. It's very expensive to live here not counting just beach front property. But if you have the means to live in Scituate, you will love it this town will grow on you🙂 I have lived here since 8 yrs old gone to school here and grew up here and aside from the storms and flooding which is when you live nearer to the water of course you will storm damage and flooding but there other parts of Scituate that are nice enough far away enough from the water to be able to enjoy your life here without the flooding 🙂

Yeah pretty cool place to live, I’ve only replaced multiple rooms in the house multiple times. “Oh that mold smell?” “Nah, none of that here!”

It’s beautiful but I wouldn’t like to leave there.

I think the guy is walking away Thinking the same thing🌊🤔

She's not wrong I've here since I was 8 just not as close to the water as she is lol there are parts of this town that are far enough away from the water to be able to enjoy this town even when storms hit. 🙂 this town is a great place to live, just dont live so damn close to the water that's the key to enjoying this great town 🙂

She's not wrong, I've lived here since I was 8 yrs old *

Yeah, federal funds provide flood insurance because no private insurer would be able to withstand the losses. So she likes living someplace that the rest of the country subsidizes. Greedy.

It doesn't happen out of the blue... we (Bostonian, just north of Scituate) we knew the storm was coming for a week and we knew it was going to product massive waves... hence the reason the houses are boarded up. It's the price we pay to live here.

@@tim850csi still pretty dumb to be living that close to the ocean

Right? There is no way I could go to bed at night with that ocean in your face. Not too mention the cost of replacement and repairs.

@@tim850csi - Do you ONLY get those big waves during storms? Or are those waves ALWAYS like that? I'm wondering because it appears there are several homes that haven't been painted in a while, as it would of course be impossible to paint if waves are continuously showering the houses.

@@angelsoto7043 only during the bigger storms during astronomically high tides typically.

Imagine hearing the washer stop, going downstairs, and finding the laundry room flooded all the way to the ceiling. Put Trump in there

...more like in a few days.

As far as I know you cannot get flood insurance for these homes.

Thank you. ONLY TO PLEASE OTHERS FOOLISHNESS

Yeah. Federal flood insurance.

You prolly won't get insured, if you did it would cost more than the house per year.

That's a fact.

🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂👍

😂😂🤣🤣😁😁😂😀😃

😁😂😅

Don't forget to add life jacket! Lol

To afraid of deep water. Run for the mountains. That's safer.

Diana Blanke (29 minutes ago) LORD HAVE MERCY! LOL!

You’re kidding right? Noone forced them to buy it. Chance are they signed lawsuit waivers. They know what storms do

@@Anomize23 , I'm just bored and I say stupid things. Forgive me. I'm just taking care of my 97 year old Mother as my life is put on hold. I have nothing else to do when she's napping, but to sit in the chair by her bed until she wakes up. Please forgive me. I'm sure it is a glorious place to live when there isn't a Nor'Easter slamming the coast. Much love!

Some people like living on the edge! I guess they like gambling with Mother Nature, and our Lord who created the ocean, sea, land, and PEOPLE!🙏🙏🙏

I imagine it is a great place to live, and people do have a right to make choices. However, it looks like people are living real close to the edge. What an adventure!🙏

Yes, that's what the ocean is trying to tell them, but they aren't listening to it!

It's crazy, there's no beach

These houses weren’t always this close to the water. At some point, they were hundreds of yards back, but because of erosion the ocean Has eaten away at the beach causing it to get closer and closer to the homes

@@sophiajohnson4546 global warming

Huh??? Menace to the power of the ocean? Mere sticks. Ocean will be here long after those houses are gone. You're living in a spirit of fear.

EXACTLY ...... And, for those that have never had the "AWESOME" experiense of waterfront living, .... Well, I feel sorry for you ALL !!! Because there is NOTHING like it ....... Trust me !!!

@@ricks.1318 eh it's okay

@@ricks.1318 I would agree if you was talking about a nice lake but this is giving me the tsunami vibes.

Until the beach is gone.

Not even a beach!🤣

Greed and stupidity.

They're rich Democrats! Why else?!

Used to be a beach it’s gone though

Houses have been there for centuries There just updated

Humans are so freakin arrogant. I hope all the houses get washed away since its the only way they learn. Like seriously, how much closer to the water do they need to be?

Idiots that deny global warming its all about the dollar bill. .Idiots!! Well look at you NOW!!

IKR! What the heck?

@@scotty6124 (2 hours ago) How much Closer to the water they need to be? I was Wondering the Same Thing!

Then they tell you they own it and you can't access it, I seen it before on Canada's west coast they will also look for bail out money to pay for it

@@TuyenPham-jm5eq facts!

Agreed, than the democrats could have done their campaign in piece.

And one day it will be, again.

Pure stupidity.

These homes don't look large too me, but they are on stilts. However, I wouldn't call these mansions. And obviously, in a country of freedom, we get to choose what we spend our money on. And who says they don't have a nice park somewhere. This country is park rick. My tiny town of 30k has more parks than I can remember and it's not affluent, not by a long shot.

CA has a variety of cliffs. Hard rock bluffs no problem. Soil bluffs will destabilize if underground water levels get too high, moving a layer from below.

🤣🤣🤣

😝😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣

😆

Haha true

Ginger cox....does it matter if the windows are up and closed, the water is going to come in no matter what.

she said it twice! like she's trying to convince herself. super-weird

rich people mindset.

She said it twice 😂✌🏽

Probably the local real estate agent is my guess

@@MrMdaeu these houses have to be really nice any time the ocean is not pouring over them

Same houses, less beach.

The houses didn't move but the beach disappeared. I visited Scituate in 2014 and 15 and I went to North Scituate / Minot Beach and noticed just how much of the beach had disappeared! ☹️

The beaches errode away with time.....

Building techiques have improved massively since then. Lots of lessons have been learned over hundreds of years. I guess, someone didn't want to pay for actual sea protection. Building right on the edge of the ocean should not form any problem at all, if build right. Lots of towns over the whole world you could look into too see for yourself.

@@frankvandendool882 Not even the most advanced building techniques can stop erosion from beaches which are key erosion areas. Nothing beats the ocean, in the end. A truthful engineer will tell someone that, but people with more money than sense will find people to build whatever they want. Then they will expect local government to bail them out, using money from the taxes of the not rich people who live locally - money which should be spent on things to benefit the whole community.

I wonder if they zoomed in though

They all look pretty good to me.

Can’t find a house here for under 3 mil

Me too. Looks amazing.

shawn lawrence 😂😂😂that’s when you have money and you just blow it in the wind!

Yeah it sounds like she's not worried about the cost of anything and the insurance going way up ... maybe she's not the one who has to worry about that .

When you sell one of these now in my town the state mandates it goes up on pilings. The water just goes under them.

She was being sarcastic I suppose about it being a great place to live

Give it time Florida's falling into the ocean to look at A1A

Ya Florida does, Florida was built under a swamp

I live on a boat, on the hook 20 yrs.

YUP ..... They just DON'T get it at all ............

And the houses are so damp inside. Mold everywhere.

🤣

But we do ! Those of us with RIN or homeowners insurance and who may NEVER make a claim are paying for replacement/rebuilding.

@@katiedid1851 Glad you pointed that out. Fema is our tax money if they get washed out totally.

You do pay.

Thats what i was thinking too

Exactly!

When the houses were originally built the ocean was much further away. I know cause I grew up in that town

@@edwardmiessner6502 those houses don't look that old though. Surely some of the people must have bought those houses after the water got so close?

Their common sense is under their feet....

The waves were high then

Next thing you know, water is in the house-

Where do you live, iowa?

HHahHahahHahahahahahahaha!!

@@old8235 Brooklyn

@@courtneykirk478 I live near Redhook Brooklyn. During sandy it became a swamp. The area use to be a swamp 200 years ago.

😂🤣😂🤣😂

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!

cuz muh oil

It's like owning a boat salt water creates corrosion and eats eats metal, nope not for me.

Why bother

One careful owner, garaged all year round....

@@TUGG75 Salt will still corrode no matter how often. I always like to keep my equipment corrosion free by hosing and using corrosion X

i live in New York.

Gentrification happened. When I grew up Scituate was a poorer cousin to Hingham, Norwell, and Cohasset. Now it's rich just like them I heard ☹️

Beach houses are a thing of the past nobody can afford to just have a house sitting that they don’t use for months

В Америке считается, что самое комфортное жилье должно быть расположено близко к воде.Но эти явно переборщили и построили дома на косе. Дамочке нравится месторасположение ее дома. У каждого -свое мнение и здесь не поспоришь.

Lol

LOL ... Why, do YOU "leave your windows OPEN during heavy storms", there, in Weedville, Nebraska ?????????????????????
