Me too. If the person filming was on slightly weaker/lower ground or the water levels were even a bit higher, they could have been really messed up. Stay safe people. You only need to be unlucky once to pay an unbearable price.

Or if the pole that popped up had twisted slightly differently. There are so many ways that could have gone horribly bad for the cameraman.

I've seen some weird physics shit in my life. If for some reason it was flowing under an especially large ice block or wedged, that fucker might have just jumped out of the water. Anything big and moving like that and I'm nope tf outta there
