As Hurricane Ian slammed Florida, with wind speeds over 150mph, multiple people have shared videos of themselves swimming through floodwaters. We’re here to tell you why you shouldn’t do the same.
On Wednesday, social media users shared footage varying floods around the state, which were a result of the Category four hurricane (which has now been downgraded to a tropical storm). Ian has left parts of Florida underwater and major infrastructures damaged, with Gov Ron DeSantis describing the natural disaster as a “500-year flood event”.
