And I'm like, y'all don't know how bad this is because they're thinking it's just their river that's washed out, not the entire like North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia.
And we've shown videos and they're just like, oh, I'm like, you're probably not gonna have a road for two to four months.
And that would kind of change their opinion on them wanting to leave.
But that lady, yeah, go back to her, low oxygen, about a day left, we convinced her to get in the helicopter because we could take her son who hiked over the mountains with his daughter as well.
And then we flew him out, but...
I mean, again, like great, you know, if it wasn't for Mark, we wouldn't have been able to do that or Zeb.
But as we were taking off, I just, Mark, he was like, basically like, oh God, he just yanked the power up and there was a power line like right in front of us.
We didn't even see it.
And then I was like, okay, I'm like looking out.
And then there was another one right in front of that.
So that was kind of like a big eye opener.
Like, okay, like we really got to be switched on here because this is not a normal HLZ landing.
And then even as we landed to bring them back to their house, we had to land on a slope like this, which is something he's never done before.
And we actually had some issues on that one as well.
We actually thought we put the tail in the dirt because it started like vibrating real hard.
And we were just like, oh man, we're stuck here in the middle of nowhere.
But it was just kind of like the way the angle was and it was fine.
And then we had to go back and grab them because we couldn't carry all the weight.
But that's literally the kind of situations that were going on.
Oh, sorry, go ahead.
