Nothing zany or LOL about that video, they could have died easily. Wish the guy wasn’t such a potty mouth, but given the circumstance I’ll give him a pass.

It’s flyover red country. No one in the media cares. Now had this been in Hollywood Hills it would be news.

That was horrific. The driver and the narrator are brave people. Just watching was an awful experience; can’t imagine being in that car.

This is a monumental disaster for the people of Tennessee. God help them.

Horrifying experience. Hard to believe no better warnings or assistance from authorities. Hope and pray everyone there is okay.

Did you notice that toward the end when he was really getting scared that he started praying? The younger stepbrother started earlier.

Salty, but perhaps deserved language. I was hoping, at the end, to see a UFC situation develope. I am glad they got out.

I think I have a silly streak in me. With each utterance they guy talking to the driver very concerned, yet he struck me as hilarious.

Stayed in a rented Chalet in Chalet Village on that very mountain. Saddened to learn it burned. Was very beautiful

There have been liberals on Twitter laughing at the “Trump supporters, burning up”.

Tobias Beecher ‘has a sad’ because the entire state of Tennessee didn’t burn to the ground. Where are you, Tobias? Tennessee would like to meet you.

Wow. That was intense. We've stayed at Chalet Village before.

What a damn shame!

He looks exactly like the smug liberal jackass I assumed he'd be.

Lower than slime on a slug's ass.

We in Tennessee ate just starting to reap the effects of closing out all the fire roads and allowing them to overgrow. Federal regulations have endangered much of the state, as we are not used to fires spreading that fast, even in these drought conditions.

I’m not surprised. They probably are the same “#RapeMelania” types.
