"I was losing hope of survival... The heat could easily make my car combust with me inside of it..." He was thinking as he was speeding away from the fires burning his house and everything around it.
This video tells the story of a man having to leave behind almost everything dear to him to escape the bush-fires in Australia. Imagine the life you’ve known for decades years just burned up. All at once. You’re forced to start over.
From February 7 to March 14, 2009, the Black Saturday bush-fires destroyed 2000 homes, claiming the lives of 173 people and over one million animals. It was one of the worst bush-fire disasters in Australian history.
Unfortunately, the frequency and severity of bush-fires have increased in recent years. Notably, the "Black Summer" fires that began in September 2019 have only recently been fully extinguished after scorching the country for 6 months.
