Here's the first video btw.


And the second.


Not to move the subject away from a serious situation but his house looks surprisingly modest for a millionaire rock star.

I will not comment on these videos. I find it so dislikeable and stupid to record videos in a situation like this and post them on Insta.
I remember helping out when there was a flood in the area where my parents live. My parents (or anyone else) would have had no sympathy for that.
I'm just keeping my fingers crossed for everyone affected and that there will be an all-clear soon!

The aftermath of that area shows at least 5,000 structures destroyed and basically nothing left, looks like total destruction, the before and after pics look unreal.

That's terrible. But that said, at least Adrian and his family have somewhere to go as he still has the property in England. Some people don't.

This for sure isn't the last time the LA area is burning. Hopefully the authorities learn from this.

Sure, authorities will learn from this and find ways to improve moving forward, but as what's been said many times at press conferences no amount of resources and preparation would have prevented this. Trying to combat a fire with 80 mile an hour swirling winds and bone dry drought conditions for miles and you have a recipe for disaster, It spread faster than humanly possible to contain. With no air support possible in those conditions this was never ending well.

Of course. That's why LA area isn't burning for the last time.

Hopefully they at least improve the hydrant grid until then.

I agree it seems very stupid to film when you are evacuating from a dangerous situation, but when you are in shock, you can do quite stupid things and become unrational. For all you know, they can think they are living their last minutes and want to document how they are dying or want to record something for their loved ones that are left

Massive waterbombers have been on site for awhile, including planes from Canada. One of which was damaged by some idiot flying a drone over LA. Flying a helicopter in these conditions is not recommended, I would think.
 
It's impossible to fly in those conditions.

The thing is that the fire hydrant grid failed to supply enough water to firefighters and I think they should think about building a new hydrant grid, as this will happen again in a few years. Possibly a grid with salt water.

I was not aware that was the case, thank you for informing me. I do not read the news very often—I doubt many teenagers do—so I was not all that caught up on the ongoing situation. They do, however, cover some news in school, which is where I found out about the fires. In the future I will research the topic further before posting. I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused.
