Absolutely terrifying... Literally hell on Earth.

Anni B-R - 2018-11-09

Ur2ez4me81 its surreal! :(

Christy the Random - 2018-11-15

And it’s named paradise

Austin Miller - 2018-11-16

California nah it isn't hell 😜

Rachel Gibson - 2018-11-17

That's what a lot of people say about CA even without the fire.

Matthew Trowbridge - 2018-11-17

No. Figuratively hell on Earth.

James P. - 2018-11-09

Insane to see the contrast when they escaped the fire. It looked like pitch black night in there.

John Landon Miller - 2018-11-11

James P. I know right. That was crazy!!

a7neu - 2018-11-12

If only those other people on the road knew how close they were!

melissa saint - 2018-11-13

And the way it just, boom, ends?!
That's insane, I never thought it would be like that

Ghost Girl - 2019-02-13

Urghhh when i saw the paradise sign i almost burst into tears. That was my home and if u live in the butte area u know how unique and precious that sign was...and now it gone

Tony Chavez - 2020-05-07

I'm from paradise too. I lived there my entire life. I escaped that morning with my work. I take care of autistic adults. I lost everything that day. My parents, sister, brother in law and their kids too. My parents are rebuilding their house as I speak.

John sarab - 2018-11-10

...THROUGH THE VALLEY OF DEATH.. You made it!

Miss Fortune - 2018-11-11

"Even when I walk in the valley of death, I will fear no evil for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff-they comfort me."

Guy Incognito - 2018-11-16

Keep telling yourself that.

Dowlphwin - 2018-11-16

Getting good vibrations from those words.

Slay Ridah - 2018-12-31

I'm gonna comfort you with my rod

Momma Jones - 2019-02-12

Amen! Praise God for pulling you through to safety and for your courage. God Bless💜

whatchu noe - 2018-11-10

I don't care what you believe in if youre in that situation besides doing the obvious which is gtfo im praying to whatever gods up there for help lol

whatchu noe - 2018-11-14

Shinobi_S4 I said whatever gods up there for help what if it is the car gods ? Fucking idiot LOL

Shawn Anomaly - 2018-11-16

Scary situation but it wouldn't lead me to suddenly pray to anything.

Stephen - 2018-11-17

Why are atheists acting so insufferable about this? And far-right nationalists are celebrating the destruction of America's largest blue state. Paradise's citizens can't catch a break.

David Tran - 2018-11-17

Dude, if your Heavenly Father cared, he wouldn't have allowed the fire to start to begin with.

ChillCosmos - 2018-11-19

@David Tran and I'm sure there are skeletal remains of fathers, Mothers, children, pets...but the heavenly father had other plans for them.

ForeverDreamWithinADream - 2018-11-10

Good thing you made it out. That must of been terrifying, I can't imagine what that must of been like. It looked like it is literally hell with all those flames surrounding the whole area. The moment you got out, it was a big difference like night and day.

Miss Fortune - 2018-11-11

This is just a small visual on what the End will be like, when Nuclear weapons of mass destruction hit everywhere.

Austin Miller - 2018-11-16

The way this world is going the sooner the better...

dani dee - 2018-11-10

I’m so glad you guys made it out safely... we are in Chico, and have met many people who fled paradise last night and this morning.. they described propane tanks exploding all around them. Let’s pray more people make it safely out of those areas.

CMV Fox - 2018-11-09

OMG! I CAN NOT IMAGINE THE FEAR! God bless both of you and thank God you made it out ok. And Kudos to the Man Driving he was super brave and stayed calm. Seems he lead the path for others that were too scared to keep going.

scubadrew9292 - 2018-11-10

I would thank the driver exclusively, looks like God was trying pretty hard to kill them :)

Austin Empower - 2018-11-10

@scubadrew9292 If He wanted them to go they would have. :)

Nick S - 2018-11-11

@Austin Empower Yeah, he said fuck you to those other people that died being burned to death. How lovely.

Recovering Soul - 2018-11-18

You realize you are not making comments to the people who filmed this, but to KTVU news station, right? Most people in the comments think the people in that car will see their comments.

Starfals - 2018-11-10

Woa, living nightmare... total hell.. its amazing it can even happen :O No movie can ever be this scary.

Chris .Appel - 2018-11-09

Mary Sims - 2018-11-11

About started crying just watching. Can’t believe how well they were holding to together.

谁家的小丑 - 2018-12-02

I would have been so scared and would have break down right on the spot. Bless you guys.

bogieboog - 2018-11-13
