0:01
Oh my fancy brother.
0:05
This ain't a joke, boys. This ain't a
0:08
joke. People never take your life for
0:11
granted, people. Man, people might
0:12
always want to live outside of the UK,
0:14
but you got to realize, man, these are
0:16
the things that going on. My man just
0:17
lost his whole house, man.
0:19
Overnight.
0:22
Yo, it's emotional, man. Serious.
0:29
Look at that, man. And his car's gone.
0:31
Yard gone.
0:36
It's a sad day, man.
0:38
Every single year though, people, man.
0:40
This is every single year. And the
0:42
government refused to even lift a finger
0:44
on it, man. It's peak.
0:47
[Music]
0:49
Look at the destruction it leaves
0:50
behind, man. It even reached on this
0:52
side.
0:56
[Music]
1:00
Destruction on destruction, man. Oh my
1:03
god.
1:10
Oh, for [ __ ] sake, man.
1:19
Emotional, man.
1:22
[Music]
1:38
The smell people, man. You can obviously
1:40
go the smell. It just smells burnt.
1:43
[Music]
1:51
I'm just here just making sure if
1:53
anyone's stuck, anyone needs help, I'm
1:55
here to help them. And but this is I'm
1:56
just showing you people. Don't ever ever
2:00
take things for granted, people. Cuz one
2:02
day is here, one day is not. Oh, look at
2:05
the flames.
2:09
Oh, wow.
2:12
You got to remember people, this was an
2:14
inferno about 6 hours ago. Oh, this is a
2:16
pure inferno.
2:18
Absolute flames. And I got to be careful
2:22
just in case the things are still lit.
2:28
Wow.
2:50
Just done some uh light fire putting
2:53
mates. You know what we do? [ __ ] yeah.
2:57
But yeah, just save the people.
3:00
We got a plane going over there. I don't
3:02
think you can see it. Come on, man. That
3:04
was good. Now you're saving the world.
3:07
Oh [ __ ] my fancy brother.
3:12
I thought was coming behind me, bro.
3:26
Well, they're off to go get some more
3:28
water now. They're going to fill up and
3:30
then they're going to come back and
3:31
obviously keep [ __ ] soaking the ver.
3:34
I've done all I can, boys. I've done all
3:36
I can. I went around the old perimeter.
3:39
If it does get any worse, I come back up
3:41
here. But I got a little bit of petrol
3:43
left. And to be honest, I'm not risking
3:46
my life on on two bars of petrol up in
3:49
this mountain when it's on fire. Uh I've
3:52
seen many films. I've seen that
3:54
Australian one before and uh when I was
3:57
in prison and that's not me mush. It's
3:59
not happening to me mush. I stay on this
4:01
cannon with half a tank of petrol. I get
4:03
80. There's nothing more I can do.
4:06
I put out some [ __ ] fires who are
4:08
just making a start again. If you have a
4:11
go and look at the news, man, the
4:12
[ __ ] fires here are terrible.
4:17
Oh, you [ __ ]
4:20
This ain't a joke, boys. This ain't a
4:23
joke. Yes, people. It's a bit of a
4:26
serious one today. Um, I'm back in
4:28
Portugal and uh it's quite an emotional
4:31
one. I'm not going to lie. I've just
4:33
recorded about 3 minutes worth of
4:35
footage of this wildfires.
4:38
This place yesterday was a was an
4:40
inferno. I burnt out cars. There's burnt
4:43
out everything. People's livelihood,
4:45
man. So, never ever take things for
4:47
granted, people. Yeah. When people say,
4:49
"I want to move out to the UK. I want to
4:50
move out to the Yo, these guys have just
4:52
been burned alive, mate. Finish. Look at
4:55
that.
4:57
Finish, mate. Yesterday, this was a pure
4:59
infernal.
5:01
Obviously, I've come here to see if
5:02
anyone needs help.
5:07
See if anyone needs help anywhere.
5:11
You okay, brother?
5:15
Yeah, man. He's fine, man. He's looked
5:16
after his dogs.
5:19
He's He's had a I don't know what he's
5:21
done there, people, but he's he's kept
5:23
his land pretty uh
5:25
pretty um safe there. Look at it,
5:27
people. The devastation, man. Burned the
5:30
wildlife.
5:32
The scenery, the greenery
5:35
is burnt to a crisp, man.
5:38
And every year, like I said, man, the
5:40
government the government just let it
5:42
happen. There's there's no drastic
5:44
measures being made
5:47
to even change all this. It's just left
5:48
for the people to suffer. And it's it's
5:51
starting to be really annoying for the
5:52
people of Portugal, man, because every
5:54
single year
5:57
nothing changes. You know what I mean?
6:01
The destruction it leaves behind is
6:02
unreal, man. The damage on the ozone
6:05
layer and the ecosystem alone is is
6:08
concerning.
6:10
You know what I mean? It is concerning,
6:11
man.
6:26
Heat.
6:37
Heat.
6:51
Look at it, man. [ __ ] destroyed, man.
6:55
It's emotional, people, man. Trust me,
6:56
it gets emotional every single year.
6:59
This is, man.
7:01
Every single [ __ ] year, man.
7:04
Last year was bad. This year is even
7:06
worse, I think. You got the helicopters
7:09
over there trying to put the fires out.
7:13
I don't know if you can see him in the
7:14
distance just above the park.
7:17
He's coming over here now.
7:23
It's absolutely destroyed.
7:34
There's people people live in these
7:36
areas on these dirt roads. People don't
7:38
realize people live on these dirt roads.
7:46
And uh there's the old helicopter there.
7:49
Much
7:50
want to save the mans.
8:02
Obviously, like I said, I'm just here to
8:04
help my hand to uh offer my helping hand
8:07
because
8:08
like I said, all of the firefighters,
8:10
I'm sure all of the firefighters here,
8:12
if not most, are all um volunteers. They
8:15
don't get paid for it. They just doing
8:17
it at the level of the well, just being
8:19
helpful and helping to help their
8:22
community when needed, I suppose.
8:33
Look at the state of that, man. It's
8:35
just destruction on destruction.
8:38
I still don't understand how the pylons
8:40
haven't got one bit of dust or mark on
8:42
them. Smoke.
8:54
Heartbreaking, man.
8:56
Oh, there's the planes here. Look, mush.
8:59
What's these planes doing? Neos,
9:02
these [ __ ] planes are going right off
9:04
in Neos.
9:14
They're still going in on there, man.
9:19
See, there's one just started over
9:21
there, people.
9:28
The free helicopter. Look at that, man.
9:30
It's [ __ ] nuts, boys, man. Serious.
9:32
My [ __ ] goosebumps are right up
9:34
there.
9:36
I don't know if you can see the smoke
9:37
over there.
9:45
But it means the wildfires are still
9:46
going, people, man. They're circling the
9:48
area now. They're the ones that fill up
9:50
all the water. They fill up on the
9:52
water. They fly through a river and they
9:54
go straight back to the point, man. It's
9:56
caught fire again.
9:58
They [ __ ] It's the wind.
10:02
It's the wind, man. Every time it gets
10:04
windier,
10:05
it gets [ __ ] messier, people.
10:11
Listen, I'm going to [ __ ] uh try and
10:14
get there as quick as I can now cuz it
10:16
looks like it's going to start back up
10:17
again. So I'm going to go see if
10:19
anyone's there need
10:21
you already know who it is. The Welsh
10:23
chars rougher than a sniper elbow mush.
10:27
My name's Louis
10:36
the world inside.
10:38
You already know who it is.
10:43
I am built with the blood.
