Texas: The Moment Floodwaters Sweep an Entire House Away

At least 59 people have lost their lives in the devastating floods that ravaged parts of Texas, with rescue teams searching for dozens of missing individuals, including 24 children. Stories from survivors who fought to stay alive as floodwaters entered their homes are heart-wrenching. Meanwhile, various videos capturing the fury of nature have caused shock and disbelief. One 37-minute video filmed by Gavin Walston from a bridge along State Highway 480 documents the moment a flash flood surge erupts. At the 34:54 mark, viewers can clearly see an entire house being swept away by the raging waters, rolling down the river before crashing into a metal railing on the bridge. Debris, tree branches, and trash begin accumulating rapidly under the bridge as water levels rise, even submerging entire trees. This harrowing footage illustrates how quickly floodwaters overtook the San Antonio St/480 bridge in Center Point, Texas. According to news reports citing state officials, the death toll has risen to 59, with search operations continuing for more than 24 missing girls from a summer camp hit by the disaster. Rescue workers continue battling dangerous conditions as the risk of further flooding remains high.
