GATLINBURG TN HIGH WATER Power Outages, Road Closures 

Best goose comment contest…. GO!!!

The goose stole the video.😊

I like how that water would've killed any of us but the goose was just chillin and left when it got bored

That was funny about the goose surfing! That's exactly what it looked like, LOL!

It’s an awesome video. The slow motion of the water was cool. Thanks for sharing.

Really appreciated the sights and sounds of the rushing water. The slow capture of the water in there was beautiful, too. Thank you for showing us as we look through your lens. Had to giggle over the bird... imagine him on an inner tube! 😂

Wow,, I was up following the storm chasers till early morning...so much devastation in several states ! Glad you guys are safe ! ❤😊

0:07 well that goose got a Hawaiian roller-coaster ride GOOSE: Cowabunga dudes

That Goose was like "I'm not sure where I'm goin', but I'm gonna get there real quick"😅!

Pretty awesome footage ❤ the power of that water just crazy.

That goose is like “finally, some me time without the flock”

I hope everyone is safe. We are keeping you guys and everyone else in the area that we enjoy watching in our prayers. A beautiful area but scary too.

OMGOODNESS, y’all stay safe! My son lives in NW Georgia and said the storms were horrific!

WOW awesome footage. Your videos are always good. The filming / editing its great. ❤️

That's pretty cool! Wish you could send some of that down here to Central Florida we are in a drought....

Wonderful sound…stayed in a hotel right on that creek…..sleep like a rock…..so nice.

Hey Eric! Great video as always. Thanks for showing the beauty of high, rushing water in the Great Smoky Mountains.

Woooowww I love how the water smells.

Majestic Footage. SMF videos never disappoint.

Will be there in 10 days! Very ASMR 😮. Hope every one is safe!

Wow it’s amazing how strong that water can get ,fast too. Be careful and stay safe😊

I hope everyone is ok. Me and my family will be there in 10 days. I hope the weather will be good then

I love hearing the creek flow an the goose says heck yeah surf time for the visitors i love Gatlinburg TN an my Smoky Mountains stay safe everyone

Wow ... Flooding again ... Wonderful video... Thanks for making this video so we can see what's going on .... We go a lot to Gatlinburg and love❤ it there 😊

That's some amazing footage of nature at its finest. Thanks for sharing!

Kool Goose ! Those waters are extremely dangerous for sure. When I was young & crazy, I would hit that in a kayak in a heart beat !! 😊

Prayers for those in the area who experienced even worse - there were some 'naders, too. It's been a rough week for a lot of folks around these parts. - Ed on the Ridge

Goose went to the top and rode it again 😂

Fantastic Video! Thanks! We always stay at the Grey stone! Pretty, but scary! It was very loud!

Somewhere in our D.N.A. we are strill amazed by rain 😂😂😂😂

Thanks for this video. What a contrast-extreme beauty mixed with an element of danger!

Absoultely beautiful! Stay safe-

That goose just chilling n riding it out the flood.😊

Whoa that's a lot of flood water

So sorry, how's everyone? Prayers for a quick recovery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow. It always amazes me at the amount of water the park and Gatlinburg can handle. When I lived in Houston it always flooded with much smaller amounts of water than that. Loved the Bold Eagle!!

Glad to see Dusty around more ! 😊

Goose knows how to have fun 😂

Great video. Well shot, well edited. Brought back fond memories of canoeing this stretch of West Prong of the Little Pigeon at flood stage and the most epic swim of my life. I understand the joy of the goose.

I'm sorry that Gatlinburg is going threw this but I have to say its such a beautiful clean looking sight. Wish every town would take pride in how there town looks like they do. I know its a tourist town but still its just always so nice looking all year around.

Congratulations on 100k views Family 💪💪

I was without power for 12 hours over that storm

Well that was a first... a surfing goose 😂. Stay safe y'all 💙🙏

Wow, Eric. The way it rained, we were wondering if it would be up to street level. Hope people use common sense and watch their kids, too. Thought about Handel's Water Music, but this makes its own music. Glad that goose was able to get out! Thanks for the video! 🌩️

Oh wow,You all stay safe...

Flooding?! Looks to me like allllmost bank full…but definitely not flooding. Great video, love the natural sound audio!

"Rollin', Rollin', Rollin' on the Riva!!! Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg, Gatlinburg is where the goose is rollin'!

Eric! You, and your family,and neighbors all stay safe!! Jim from E Ohio!🙏🙏🙏👍👍❤️❤️❤️😳

Y'all stay safe! Outstanding video.

Nice slow mo of the water❤

What a powerful river. I know that is extremely loud. The goose had no problem in it. Just cruising along.

Another great and informative video Eric keep up the good work.

My daughter just came back from spending a week there. Glad she left a couple of days ago before this happened.

the goose was thinking " finally someone that has a youtube channel is filming me, gotta make this good for my 10 minutes of fame!"

My sister lived in Germany for years and once when they were taking a boat cruise on the Rhine river she said there were ducks and geese that would wait for the boats to come by and surf the wake. She said it was very intentional. And there was a video of swans swimming out a way into the ocean and surfing in to the beach... and then doing it again. They are bored with just swimming I guess.

Insane. Normally a calm little creek of a river nice to sit beside while you contemplate the meaning of life. Now a raging river!

Didn't we see a video like this several months back?? where do you keep all this water. Send some over this way in the Western States.

Awesome

Can’t imagine the power behind this water. I thought the goose was a goner.😂 Thanks for sharing.

It’s beautiful, but also terrifying!

Beautiful! Thank you

Wow that's a lot of rain

Y'all did a good job on this. Beautiful powerful and deadly. And REALLY loud. Thanks for sharing.

Yall be safe we have flood here in Middle Tennessee

I think we were in Gatlinburg on the way to camp in the Smokies, sometime in the early 1980s. Still beautiful. When we went to Mammoth Cave on that trip, the caves where they had boat rides was closed due to flooding. They didn't know if the boats had survived. Water, water, everywhere. Wish some could be saved for the dry times or sent to those that need it.

Wow! Eric, hope and pray everyone's okay. Really enjoyed your video! I wonder if someone would be white water rafting in that? You all and everyone else are in my thoughts and prayers. That water is beautiful! Love y'all and stay safe!❤️🙏

That was amazing. Goose having fun!

This is absolutely beautiful! Loved the slo-mo. So glad goose made it. He/she had me scared. Iwanna move to Tennessee now! 😊

Goose was white water drifting. Flew upstream for another ride.

It’s a Beautiful video YA’ll 👍😄✌️🌞❤️🫶

Hey Brother I am a local kayaker who loves to put in at the Chimney Tops Trailhead where you were filming. I will be on it soon. Thanks for a fabulous video.

got my answer to the text lol thanks for the video and keeping us updated

Bet he (the goose) was goose necking at the high water & fell in. ❤😂

Sorry for the high water but what a beautiful place and cute town.

Cool a few years ago we stayed at Graystone. Loved the view1

I was on vacation and leaving there yesterday and witnessed this as well in the community where our cabin was located. It was wild.

Its beautiful ! Stay safe💗

The goose’s friends chickened out, but he went anyway. My kind of goose!

The Goose got an excellent and free thrill ride. Go Goose!

I loved this. God takes care of all

That goose was like "shock's bra" as he floated by.😊

You did excellent on the video.

Wow that is some powerful water!

Great video, thanks for getting out there. I didn’t recognize where the bridge was that was supported by rocks?

We were there last week left on the 6th and I couldn’t believe how low the water was 😮I had never seen it that low ! A few days later it went to this ?!?! WHAA ????

That’s wild

With so much development , ( I watch everything auto and they show a lot of neighborhoods in mountains etc) im very concerned about landslides. We’ve had a few small Ones on the nc side where I live. So many hillsides are being clear cut and bulldozed and more houses taking up more land. Not a good combination for ALL the rain the smokies gets.

Goose got out and flew back upstream thinking…..Do Again, Do Again!!!!

Removed the dams and now water is flowing uncontrolled! Any damage should be paid for by those not planning.

Love the goose!

Great footage.

The goose got jiggy wit it!

Ty for sharing sledgehammered that like button sharing out full watch

Nice video, that was lots of rain and the water was very high 😮

Great footage

Eric can certainly use that camera - great video. Stay safe

Goose said. Can't touch that!

That goose said hold my beer watch this

The Greystone Lodge is going to have to change its sign to “Large private balconies IN the River”!

Perfect water flow. Thats why the bridges were built in the first place.
