Once in a lifetime floods DESTROY Beijing, China | My firsthand account | Earthquake in Shandong

Typhoon Doksuri brought historic rainfall to China, and Beijing was ill-equipped to deal with the torrential downpour. Extreme flooding ensued. In this video I share my experience living in China at the time of the Beijing floods (which also decimated areas of Hebei Province - namely Zhuozhou City, as well as areas of Harbin and Tianjin).

Just a couple days after getting inundated from the natural disaster, more trouble hit. Just hours ago an earthquake hit Pingyuan County, Dezhou City, Shandong Province, China destroying over a hundred homes, injuring many, and the number of deaths are unclear.

It's shocking how these two natural disasters hit so close in terms of time and location. Sending my prayers out to all those affected!
