that's a good one !!

Also saw another video from a reporter in South Carolina making his report as he stood in water mid-thigh deep that looked like it was that way as far as the camera was showing. No theatrics on his part but talking about the widespread devastation the homeowners were experiencing. Right at the end of the segment two guys maybe 30-40 yards behind him come into view strolling across what had appeared to be deep water that wasn't more than a couple of inches deep making it obvious the reporter had searched for a low spot to stand in for dramatic effect.

There was also one I saw a few months ago, and I think it was in Dallas. It showed a group of police and other first responders doing a fast water rescue of a women in a car stranded in high water on an access road, trying to maneuver a rescue boat up next to the car door so they could pull her out through the window. The 4 or 5 men next to the vehicle were standing in water that was mid-thigh deep less than 10 feet from dry pavement. There was no "fast water" and they were having no difficulty standing and moving around the car. I was thinking why don't you just open the door and walk her to the dry pavement. Looked like a case of once you have the equipment and specialized training you really WANT to use it.
