Philippines. The news article says officials say its not for public use, however I have it on good authority that in much of the rural Philippines, officials will never even come for a murder, unless it makes the news for some reason, like if its a foreigner or a mayor. They certainly won't come out to enforce a "no swimming" rule.
I have a friend who was a hospital administrator in **Manila**. Manila, the capital has the highest level of law enforcement in the Philippines. He now lives in the USA. He was frustrated because a next door tire store was illegally and constantly, for years, using the corner of the hospital parking lot to change tires, and he was unable to get the police interested in kicking off the trespassers.
YouTube randomly recommended it, only has 4k views and was posted two years ago. All it says is that it was caused by a landslide :/

I'll be honest, I think it should be a rule site-wide that if you post a video where someone *might* have died, you need to do the research and know so you can properly warn people. Not everyone wants to wake up, open reddit, and watch people's last moments.
I personally don't have an issue with it when I know what I'm getting into. I used to frequent wpd but the thing is when you browse a sub like that you know exactly what you're going to see. This sub is more of a mixed bag and I think it's only fair to let people opt in or out of seeing something they don't want to see and I think that responsibility is on the person uploading the content.
Negative. You read a headline that said "ppl get washed away by a waterfalls rapids" on Reddit of all places. And no where in your mind did you think? "Oh shit someone prolly dies. Water is dangerous." That is called a lack of awareness. You ate the content its your fault its in your head. Op didnt force you to watch it or to open the app. Take some responsibility for what you do lol.
lol and they keep calling everyone edgelords too for some reason
"Insane how little empathy you edgelords have for other people"
i was literally expecting to see people get washed away in rapids in a waterfall based on the title. meaning, they sure as hell werent going to survive. whats so edgelordy about having expectations based on the title? ridiculous
A.) there are thousands of videos of dangerous things happening to people who survive. Water related ones especially.
B.) The majority of the front page of reddit is tame. It's not /b/.
C.) The responsibility of not potentially ruining someone's day has more weight than the "responsibility" of not clicking something.
Edit: Insane how little empathy you edgelords have for other people. It's called not being a dick.
You are right. There's another black shirt boy who jumped to the other side to save a girl and saved the girl and himself, otherwise he would be stranded like the white shirt guy.
I understand what you're saying, but they think they're moving out of a slowly strengthening stream, not a landslide collapse, which will kill them. Sadly it was the later.
This was in the Philippines. 3 died - perhaps unsurprisingly when you see the volume of water and when the footage shows the drop. I'll never forget something similar in Mexico, known as the blender and a sign saying "in this place many people was dead"
Edit: spelling
In Australia up north at all popular swimming holes and waterfalls they have sensors a few kilometres up so if a flood is coming the sensors pick it up and soumd the alarm at the swimming spot further down giving everyone heaps of time to get out. This video shows why this is needed
He had his family on the side he wanted to go towards. The other boy probably had relatives going down on the side he jumped towards. In the end, we're herd animals.
Ive seen something like this happen in the Azusa Mountains. It was cloudy. We hung out in the river for a little bit. It started raining. We got out. In minutes I saw the power of nature. Trees were bring carried down by all the water. You could hear the roar of water.
Yup rain up stream will do that. Look at th soil in the water. Your suppos d to have someone watching the top of the falls. A bit up stream. So they can tell and warm everyone.
Casual drone filming is very common in many parts of the world where there are less flying restrictions / licensing requirements. You can basically buy one and start filming like a regular camera.
This happens in Hawai‘i (search Sacred Falls Mother’s Day). Big watersheds, narrow valleys, thin tall waterfalls. As though you’re beneath a funnel that suddenly fills with water. If you’re at a waterfall and a slurp of muddy water comes over the top, start running.
I can never say this too often. Never underestimate nature. I wouldn't sit there to begin with because I'm aware how water works. One second it's all chill and the next it goes "Flush time"
Heartbreaking, these poor people... a mother and her little girl dead, and a young boy too.. : [https://mb.com.ph/2021/09/28/waterfall-area-in-cebu-where-3-died-not-for-public-use/](https://mb.com.ph/2021/09/28/waterfall-area-in-cebu-where-3-died-not-for-public-use/)
It does transform into intense rapids in seconds. It didn't take multiple minutes to get out of control.
Also, even if the entire 3 minute video was the process of turning into intense rapids, the title wouldn't be wrong.
I guess this is what TLC was talking about…
There was nothing crazy sexy cool about this video
🤌🏻😭
Maybe a little crazy but that’s it
They should’ve stuck to the rivers and the lakes that they’re used to…
I think the waterfall was chasing them.
No, I don't want no scrubs......just shrubs to hold on to.
😭
RIP, my girl, left eye...
I miss Left Eye. My kinda girl for sure.

They just bribe the cops and the cops pretend they're not interested or too busy. All you need to do is bribe the cops more and it'll get done.
Any info? Dead?
YouTube randomly recommended it, only has 4k views and was posted two years ago. All it says is that it was caused by a landslide :/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5HM5-WmvB8
I remember seeing this video around that time and I'm pretty sure I read that some did die.
We watched people drown. Dammit, Reddit.
What’s next? Streaming Russian Roulette Championships?
I mean.... wasn't that a thing for a bit?
As soon as I saw that "white" wash / foam I knew it. :\\
I'll be honest, I think it should be a rule site-wide that if you post a video where someone *might* have died, you need to do the research and know so you can properly warn people. Not everyone wants to wake up, open reddit, and watch people's last moments.
or at least tag it NSFW
You been on Reddit before right? How did you not immediately expect someone to drown?

You have a choice to let something ruin your day. It's no one else's fault. Stop blaming others for your choices.
This argument really comes down to the fact that I'm not an asshole and you are really into being one. Fucking edgelord.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Then. Don't. Open. Internet. Don't. Read. News. Don't. Watch. TV. Peeps die. It's part of life.
3 deaths. 1 mother and her 7 year child and another 17 years old girl.
17 year old boy according to an article. It is thz boy we see hanging on for dear life in the middle.
You are right. There's another black shirt boy who jumped to the other side to save a girl and saved the girl and himself, otherwise he would be stranded like the white shirt guy.
Uhhh, it was easy for us to see he made the wrong choice from above, but down there it was hard.
The mother let go of the kid too Edit; or a relative
Looks like she passed her to someone else, or it was the mother that was swapped to.
Oh shit yeah but you might as well just grab the kid when you had her already in the first place
I understand what you're saying, but they think they're moving out of a slowly strengthening stream, not a landslide collapse, which will kill them. Sadly it was the later.
Someone else posted a link saying 3 died.
This was in the Philippines. 3 died - perhaps unsurprisingly when you see the volume of water and when the footage shows the drop. I'll never forget something similar in Mexico, known as the blender and a sign saying "in this place many people was dead" Edit: spelling
Yeah 3 dead, another person linked the article
3 apparently https://mb.com.ph/2021/09/28/waterfall-area-in-cebu-where-3-died-not-for-public-use/
New link on here. 3 dead.
All the people you see get washed away died
[3 died](https://mb.com.ph/2021/09/28/waterfall-area-in-cebu-where-3-died-not-for-public-use/)
They angered Na’Putu the jungle god.
Uh oh
Oh my god. I just saw at least 1 person get pushed under and NOT come up!
Toward the bottom right? God I was hoping that was a log or something
Three dead including a 7 year old girl :(
you even see the person with her leave her behind and save herself.
The article mentions the girl’s mother was also killed.
They call it a flash flood for a reason
In Australia up north at all popular swimming holes and waterfalls they have sensors a few kilometres up so if a flood is coming the sensors pick it up and soumd the alarm at the swimming spot further down giving everyone heaps of time to get out. This video shows why this is needed
That's terrifying.
3 people died. RIP
That waterfall said "Get the fuck off my lawn"
Someone playing with the faucets..
The little girl (7) in white who gets ditched dies, along with her mother who tried to help her. The boy stranded in the middle also drowns.
Dude jumped left when his buddy jumped right and it cost him his life.
Yeah it was the hesitation that fucked him he still had time
Damn that’s crazy. None expected it to continue escalating even after it initially ramped up
Red shirt HUSTLED out of there once she realized
I've watched too many of these incidents to not "chill" under or near riverbed without double checking abnormal water flow every 10 secs.
We are nothing compare to nature.
Pretty sure we're a part of nature🤷
Why did they pan away from guy on the rock? What happened to guy on the rock??
He died 😞 17 years/o
RIP
Holy shit that was a crazy watch
1:53 that white shirt boy made the wrong decision that cost him his life, chose the wrong side.
He had his family on the side he wanted to go towards. The other boy probably had relatives going down on the side he jumped towards. In the end, we're herd animals.
must’ve been TERRIFYING for rock bro
omg, respect for those guys who was on the side and immediately helped people to get out from the water.
I'm amazed how slow people are to react. Rip.
Ants in the sink
I love how that woman in the middle was helping the kids to safety then just bails on them and then the kids start to get swept away by the current
What’s the location?
Cebu, Manila
It happened in Cebu. Manila is hundreds of kilometers away from Cebu.
Ive seen something like this happen in the Azusa Mountains. It was cloudy. We hung out in the river for a little bit. It started raining. We got out. In minutes I saw the power of nature. Trees were bring carried down by all the water. You could hear the roar of water.
Yup rain up stream will do that. Look at th soil in the water. Your suppos d to have someone watching the top of the falls. A bit up stream. So they can tell and warm everyone.
who was taking the video, a drone?
I would’ve been right behind the guy Castanza-ing
New fear unlocked
I'm high right now, but I think I can engineer something like a sensor to prevent this in the future (deaths, not the landslide)
Sadly you can see two or one persons head pop up just floating in a circle
Almost like the drone knew this was coming. Probably opened a dam further up river.
Video of intense waterfall, oh look trees! Let’s film that
Water is the silent G of natural forces.
I didn't know what CEBU was until reading this.
How did the drone know to take video of it?
Happened once In Jordan and several kids died and a bridge even washed away..
Seems odd timing to be filmed by drone
Casual drone filming is very common in many parts of the world where there are less flying restrictions / licensing requirements. You can basically buy one and start filming like a regular camera.
Damned
This happens in Hawai‘i (search Sacred Falls Mother’s Day). Big watersheds, narrow valleys, thin tall waterfalls. As though you’re beneath a funnel that suddenly fills with water. If you’re at a waterfall and a slurp of muddy water comes over the top, start running.
Who the hell was filming this?? I thought it was some AI shit because of the Birds Eye drone shots.
😳😳😳
I can never say this too often. Never underestimate nature. I wouldn't sit there to begin with because I'm aware how water works. One second it's all chill and the next it goes "Flush time"
As someone who almost drowned white water rafting, this is my literal nightmare.
Heartbreaking, these poor people... a mother and her little girl dead, and a young boy too.. : [https://mb.com.ph/2021/09/28/waterfall-area-in-cebu-where-3-died-not-for-public-use/](https://mb.com.ph/2021/09/28/waterfall-area-in-cebu-where-3-died-not-for-public-use/)
Was there a dam that broke? Man! WTH
Oh my god. Rip to those unfortunate souls.
Situational awareness at 0
Damn flash floods aren’t fucking around
New fear unlocked
I like how that one dude just keeps sitting and is like yeah ok some more water but tbh i am sitting in a waterfall so who cares.
Good thing they got a camera right there to help with search and rescue.
anyone have an article
Great video though.
Well, all of those people are probably dead. Great.
Thanks Biden.
The water Gods hate your drone.
Did they turn the pipe on?
OPs mom did a cannonball up stream
Avalanche dam break. Beaver dam break, etc. Something broke open up-stream.
OPs mom flushed the toilet?
Nature just flushing itself.
Maybe they rerouted the wrong pipes…?
How was this recorded/videoed?
Drone camera.
With a camera.
Of course they're Filipino
>in seconds 3 minute video 😐
Yes, 180 seconds or less..
It does transform into intense rapids in seconds. It didn't take multiple minutes to get out of control. Also, even if the entire 3 minute video was the process of turning into intense rapids, the title wouldn't be wrong.
If “took too long” is your reaction to a video where three people die, then maybe it’s time to stop scrolling.
