Three-story house with Chinese man trapped on balcony completely collapses and is swallowed into flood water

:marseysalutechina:

Man died during the 2013 Southwest China floods, and was one of ~253 deaths (73 officially, 180 officially missing, couldn't find evidence of those 180 being rescued).

Incident in video occurred in the city of Shifang, Sichuan Province.

The river they both fell into was the Shiting river... (unfortunate)

What a shitty river.

Was that house built on the river? He should have evacuated long time ago. Wonder if he was stuck or refused to leave thought he was safe. He def died though once it collapsed. That was really poor judgment.

It's really not that complicated - and you could guess what happened if you spent enough time on websites similar to this - the house was built beside the river: guy went to sleep, wild rains turned the river into a torrent, and rushing water eroded the bank of the river, undercutting the house. Guy wakes up as he feels the house start to settle - and doesn't have time to get out. And the description of the event under the video SAYS he died.

Why did he run out like he just noticed what was happening

Man those balconies don't look that high. He could've saved himself if he just did some hardcore(not even) parkour. I'd take a sprained ankle over becoming one with extremely turbulent flood waters carrying tons of debris.

You know that pelvis fall ruined his legs so, he was probably paralyzed helpless to escape the torrent. Not worth it.

It's kind of unnerving watching a man become a statistic

Luckily, Chinese people are amongst the groups who don't have souls; so no biggie.
