The Escape from Hurricane Katrina Flooding and levee failure in New Orleans, LA. This is a continuation from master tape 3.
00:12 – The Point Of View (POV) escape footage from New Orleans, LA, as the levee system failed and the city began to flood. The footage starts out on Interstate 10 and the 610 split, which was no longer an option to escape the heart of the town due to the massive flooding under the “Railroad Underpass” on the west side of the city. The camera moves back the way it came on the interstate, going the wrong direction, until the first available exit. The videographer used GPS and mapping to find an alternate route around the rising flood waters on the southwest side of New Orleans to get back to Interstate 10. This was all done while driving over downed trees, through flooding, and extreme winds as the hurricane’s eye wall moved away from the area. This is some of the last footage of these neighborhoods before the flooding overtook them.
14:21 – After driving through flooded and debris-filled roads to get to the next entrance ramp, the ramp was filled with several feet of water that would not permit anyone to drive through it and onto the interstate. Yet another route had to be located to the west.
25:45 – After finally finding a way around the rising flood waters and back onto higher ground on Interstate 10, the flooding was still a problem, as well as the flying debris striking the vehicle.
27:44 – After making it back to the area around the airport in Kenner, LA. The aerial view of the area shows the flooding all around the airport with the roads impassible. Footage shows the damage around the area of the Airport and Kenner, LA.
44:11 – Aftermath footage from around Kenner, LA and the New Orleans International Airport. Footage shows the flooding around the north side of the airport as the frontage road is under several feet of water. Flooded our vehicles were left on the side of the road. The security fence around the airport was destroyed. Airport taxiways were lowered and damaged by the wind. Airport signs are down and littering the roadway. Additional footage from inside the airport as passengers waited out the hurricane in the airport terminal. Damage to the terminal roof and windows. Just about every vehicle that was parked at the airport showed damage from flying debris.
50:20 – Footage from outside the NOLA airport that shows the extent of the wind damage with damaged hangars, tipped over trailers, and downed utility poles. Additional footage from around the south side of Kenner, LA, where there was no flooding, only wind damage from the hurricane, showing destroyed gas stations, downed traffic lights, and damaged buildings.
51:37 – By contrast to the south side of the airport, where the levee system worked, the north side of the airport had several feet of water on the roadways, making it almost impossible to pass without a high-profile vehicle. Video shows trucks driving through the high water while other vehicles are just stalled out in the high water, as people are walking through the high flood waters. Additional footage of cars flooded up to the windows
54:38 – Video ends with a scene of the flooded out airport radio navigation equipment at the north end of the New Orleans International Airport and another damaged building on the north side of the airport.
