Driving through a forest fire

When there were huge wildfires burning out of control in Australia a couple of years ago, it was all over the news, but for some reason it took a viral video to alert me to the fact that there were equally huge fires burning in Russia right now.

Yet, the only heat wave I’ve been hearing about in Russia was the one where they were drinking vodka and drowning.

This gripping video, however, shows three Russians trying to drive through a forest fire. Apparently, they are fleeing their burning village behind them, and there are cars behind them that make it difficult to turn around.

Now, though, I can actually believe that someone would keep the camera rolling during Cloverfield.
