The death toll in the devastating Guadalupe River flash flood in south Texas has risen to 43 — including 28 adults and 15 children in Kerr County, officials said in a grim Saturday night update.
Officials said 12 adults and five children have not yet been identified. Another press conference is expected Sunday morning.
At least four of the dead — Renee Smajstrla, 8; Sarah Marsh, 8; Janie Hunt, 9; and Lila Bonner, 9 — were attending Camp Mystic, a Christian summer retreat for girls where 23 other campers were still unaccounted for.
Family members took to social media to post the heartbreaking news.

Dam colappsed?
If the mass alert system saved but one life it would have been worth it, but they waited 90 minutes. Criminal.
Where did the water come from?
എത്ര പെട്ടെന്നാണ് വെളളപൊക്കം ഉണ്ടായത് 😮
And to think that all the left did was blame Trump for the deaths. Disgusting people.
RIP to all those innocent souls lost.
When I lived in Tucson, we got a LOT of rain and our washes and dry river beds were all the way up to the bridge. 2 people died when a woman fell into a creek and a guy jumped in to save her. There is no hope once you are in one of these floods.
I don't understand what's shocking about this video??? It's been happening for thousands and thousands of years and only people of a few generations who have degenerated and stopped respecting the water flow are terribly surprised. If you don't know how to live and respect the water flow and you think you can fool the water, then this is what will happen.
cloud seeding
Yep this is a lot of water. Was at the Grantham inland Tsunami in 2011 in te Lockyer Valley Qld, Au. Lot of nice people died!! Sad that you folks lost so many and especially kids? Hoping time heals your suffering, dear folks an families. 😥😥

Nothing shocking. Standard flash flooding… Get to higher ground
In Russia you can blame evil dictator Putin, but in the great America, the ‘greatest democracy on Earth’, (*snort*) Americans are to blame, or aren't you a democracy? Don’t you elect your leaders?
The storms aren’t the core issue, the land being sealed off by greedy construction and industrial agriculture are. The river flows, if you build in its path… well…
The US life style is to blame, US admins (both parties) and corporations just provided it, US citizens lived it, still do, blaming others…

Ban chemtrails Pres Trump!!!!! Now
Living among global warming deniers and pdf files
Very few things are more powerful and or deadlier than rushing water and it's truly sad how many children lost their lives here 😥
Les États , Départements et municipalités laissent la nature faire les nettoyages que les services et employés des villes ne font plus parce qu’ils n’ont plus les crédits et matériels et l’essence pour les faire !
Trump, help your own country, not others
It acted very similar to a tsunami
Terrible
just wonder. could more life be saved if life jackets were compulsorily provided for every near-river camps during flooding seasons? 😢😔🙏
This happened in the middle of the night – why is it light out?
Powerful footage
Kami panggil KEPALA AIR.
Interesting how this coincidentally happened on Independence Day, affecting a Christian girls' sleepaway camp in Red Texas. It reminds me of the tremendous hurricanes that devastated Florida and the Red-oriented East Coast states during last November's election.
😢😢😢😢
Showing the whole clip twice to elongate the video is such low level media ting
Opening of dam water
…habár fölűl a gálya,s alúl a víznek árja,azért a víz az úr…
Как а Японии Цунами начиналось😢😢😢
Why was this person there recording a river?
you can hear the trees snapping in the background , run for high ground
That is seriously terrifying.
But climate change isn’t real. 😂
Not really a flood. More like a Tsunami.
Unfortunately for Texans they have a puppet governor
At first glance, I thought climbing up high on the big tree would have made an escape but that torrent ial flash flood was more powerful or overpowered those big trees as swept away with it. May them rest in peace and may I express my condolences to those who lost their beloved ones.
Reminds me of 1999 vargas Venezuela.😢😢. I can even feel the smell of mud/wood
