The person filming would not be aware that their footage
would reach the millionth mark on Youtube. That probably wasn’t the reason why
they documented what they did. Simply they wanted to capture it ‘cause it was
entertaining being in the position they were and not at the drivers seat or out
in the streets. There were many close calls, but for some there were not as
lucky. I seriously thought things were going to be worse than what
was shown. I could totally
feel the anxieties of people watching before their eyes
what is happening. I felt that I was close to the action, as if I was there
with the filmmaker. The filmmaker even warns people that are close to danger
from getting out of the way of a car that is almost about to go into them. This adds more to that effect.
Sure, the video is not the best of quality but the material
definitely is. It is amazing to see how people try to maneuver their cars so
they stay safe. Sometimes it works, but other times they can’t fight Mother
Nature. People sometimes don’t
have a
choice but to brave it out in a place like this.
The filmmaker had patience to be outside
in the cold and just keep recording what was happening. I’m sure this
person
wasn’t an actual filmmaker but with the use of any kind of camera goes
to show that
anyone can document a piece of history from any place and nowadays that
is easier to be viewed with the help of the internet and sites like
Youtube.
