Damn, who would have expected flooding on a flood plain.
Not a bright bunch.
Yeah because it floods so often. Keep living in your safety bubble
@Russ mt The ability to score some shooms and party at the social event of the season…outweighs intelligence.
I might have been a lake bed at one time.
I always wanted to live in a shack out on the mud plain with an open sewer.
But did you want to pay hundreds of dollars for it? Yep it’s all wack.
Aaaaaaah the fresh air.
@William King haha
Hahaaaa
It’s going to rain again and flood. People could seriously die. They seem to be very calm lol.
Hearing the mom’s diatribe about how nobody is helping them deal with a very simple, predictable contingency of life tells me exactly how these idiots ended up there without checking the weather
I said the same thing about Florida….
👍
When you go into the wilderness, unexpected things can happen. You have to come prepared.
its a deanm dessert not much happening there.
@LCF FLCthe desert is the most challenging survival environment and these pagans don’t seem to resilient or knowledgeable
BTW I’ve been a self defense and survival instructor for almost 2 decades and would never have recommended anyone go to this event it is a death trap
@LCF FLCthe worst place to try to shelter around in a desert is a dry lake or river bed for obvious reasons
“GO” prepared…
I love these “feel good” stories, they truly warm my heart.
Burning Man is now Moist Man
@Rob W AQUA MAN
They warm the cockles of your heart.
Yes it like those stories with happy endings where the criminal gets shot and reaches ambient temperature.
I hate festivals. I’m older now and everything annoys me.
With ya on that one.
Ditto.
Ugh…same…
it annoyed me at age 8, when I first read about this debauchery in Rolling Stone magazine – before they went absolutely insane. 😂
I agree 🤣
I like how first they couldn’t get to burning man cause of protesters now they can’t leave
“Now yous can’t leave”
Lol
I found that interesting also. The climate protesters tried but climate itself stopped them. I mean, it was going to happen eventually.
Karma.
@Kenny Bachmanfor what….
Anyone who knows anything about the Black Rock Desert knows that it’s not a place you want to be when it’s raining. As they all found out.
Yeah
Exactly, no vegetation, just nothing but dirt around.
They should be responsible for their own safety. You don’t go into a destitute location for days with no preparation.
My guy, there are hikes in parks that are longer. Your “destitute” location is only 4 miles into the desert and not far from hot spring baths.
But 4 miles is all it took to get them stuck,eh? lol @Curious Nomad
I hope the rain helps the man who is burning
Good one dude
Rain can’t stop that kind of burn!!!
