Jesus, that’s the basest of bacterial soups he’s basting in. That’s sewage and corpse water.
Necrotizing fasciitis isn’t a single bacteria. It’s a bacteria gone wild such that the tissue dies under the stress of it. This guy’s feet and junk are in that mess.
Horrifying outcomes may happen.
Psh, you wouldn’t be saying that if you saw the 2-day-old, cold, left out pizza he ate just before the pic was taken!
And it was only slight wet, nothing a few paper towel couldnt dry up.
Well, that’s a great way to get a really bad infection.
Flood waters contain everything from sewage to dead animals to parasites.
Man, he’s a college student, he probably eats worse.
Rafts of fire ants are also a sure way to liven things up
Fire ants rafting is a sure sign there is no god. At least not a benevolent, personal one.
Edit: The downvotes are making me wonder how many people didn’t get past the first sentence before skipping the rest.
God is God to all living things, fire ants included. And did He not say, ‘Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. And as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.’ (Genesis 9:3). And lo, the fire ants rejoiced, and partook of his great bounty (college students sitting in flood waters), and were fruitful.
Going to school in a hurricane-prone state? That sounds like a great idea!
Seriously I refuse to live anywhere that wouldn’t remain well above sea level even if you melted every ice crystal on earth. If the universe wants to natural disaster me to death it’s gonna have to go the extra million miles and drop an asteroid on me.
Places thousands of feet above sea level found themselves under deep water after this storm.
Boone is 3300 feet above sea level, in fact.
Not going to lie, struggling with the “how” on this one. Stationary water anyway.
If a 400 sq mi area gets 2 ft of rain and there’s a low valley area surrounded mostly by mountains, the water will drain down the mountainsides to the valley. It’s like a big bowl. The water that settles in the valley will be more than 2 ft because of the rest of the runoff from even higher elevations
As the name of the school implies, it’s in the Appalachian mountains…so hundreds of miles from the sea?
Not exactly hurricane territory.
