[@007peeper1]

I am scared of this guy standing so close to the edge

[@Joe-qv6jh]

The wind is at his back ...duh

[@user-dy6qm5gd7b]

These are the kinds of people that earth can afford to lose

[@johnhmielewski1230]

Stay scared then lol

[@JanetHill-ft7rk]

The reporter is putting his life in danger ...he nearly got blown into the sea ! 😮😔🙏praying for all in Florida. God help you all and keep you safe. From all in England and Uk 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@tenzinpassang5482]

Why the man is risking his life. Use the technology as he is doing live interviews means internet connection is working. Stay safe.

[@fillgap9694]

Duh dramatics for little pay

[@jadedcatlady]

Isn’t it irresponsible for reporters to do this when the message blasted now is shelter in place / get higher? Not only is he risking his life, but he might be communicating it isn’t so bad and more people will come out.

[@user-dy6qm5gd7b]

But yet you’re here watching it… which is exactly why they do it

[@valm.5243]

The reporter and videographer need to stay inside. He doesn't have to risk his life to show us how bad this is. 🙏🏾Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦

[@ZENAHSChronicles777]

God please protect the people in Florida. You are miraculous God and I know your anointing is over the state of Florida.

[@nessie46]

Your job is not worth putting yourself in that much danger.

[@gennaroianniciello4802]

Greetings from Montreal, Quebec. Stay Safe.

[@Princess-Um]

This guy is being a "tough guy". Give me a break! This has already been done. It's needless and not new.

[@jadedcatlady]

Why is he OUT THERE?

[@DontAsk-x6v]

Because his boss puts his life in danger

[@marievam]

Because he is dramatic and stupid 😅😅😅

[@mckennadawnmiller615]

Why is he so close to the edge? He almost blew into the ocean.

[@biopack5307]

Tell him to close the ice box

[@DarcySteele]

When they shove reporters out in storms, I feel like they’re the red shirts on Star Trek.

[@reneecampsall1898]

So sad to hear :/ Siesta key has been our family spot for years 🙏🙏🙏for all residents!!

[@LMB8]

Praying for all being impacted by these horrific hurricanes. I’m praying everyone survives this one. 🙏🙏🙏

[@wallishacoleman5013]

Man, I love ppl like that, that can do a job like that. They are risk takers and u know that’s their passion

[@North-of-the-49th]

Stay safe Fla. 💙 from 🇨🇦

[@stickshiftt9127]

Dude is nuts!!

[@stevedollinger8126]

Stickshift9127 your correct

[@heartofdixieprepping4797]

This is ridiculous! People are leaving their homes and properties and he's standing basically on the water.

[@annsalenga4050]

Stay safe, sir...greetings from the Philippines.

[@Cameroon250]

Sir please go home. We don’t need a report that bad!!!!

[@dirtybloomers7068]

Classic Weather-Guy standing in high winds TV-trope. Some things never change, although, the Sound-Engineers have really improved over days of yore.

[@Pankling]

These people shouldn't be risking their lives just to give us live coverage. They also should have evaluated.

[@loispoindexter757]

We are over these reporters in the middle of the storm. STOP IT

[@mommeynyajd868]

Stay safe, sir. Sending prayer from Manado Indonesia

[@crystalsumner6057]

Is he crazy!!! You should not be there outside right now! 😮

[@charlietravler642]

Wtf would u put someone out there !? To report everyone knows whats going on ffs

[@Rafaelacarlina]

Exactly is stupid

[@SharonJohnson-d2p]

It’s getting dark and you are still out there 😮

[@Onel756]

Get him inside !!! 😮

[@jeansteele6698]

Carlyle Harris, my cousin somewhere in Sarasota you are in our thoughts

[@deannatanierla6770]

What is he doing out there 😮

[@dayd7527]

Reminds me of movie titanuc, when the men were singing then the boat sank.... This poor man better run....❤❤❤

[@dayd7527]

Titanic...

[@CatFluff-pm6qr]

Sometimes it's not as bad as they say ( hopefully)

[@freeheeler09]

Agreed!

[@bab1374]

I remember hurricane Maria couple years ago, turned to become cat 1 tropical storm! Pray Milton is the same!

[@Trumpall]

That guy gets a raise, period.

[@gigikay1734]

I wonder about Longboat Key. I used to live there. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@straycats6]

Playing tough guy

[@gloriamalave4521]

He’s crazy

[@PUBHEAD1]

I wonder who will report his missing body next week

[@paulyneskipsey]

That boat in the background will be gone

[@TimDiez-zm3px]

I’d love to be on it 😂 just a rich guy wanting to collect insurance check so left it there.

[@paulyneskipsey]

@@TimDiez-zm3px yeah maybe or a poor guy who couldn’t move it. Just hope he is not on it 😱

[@rosanarose8363]

Please release this journalist from his duties.

[@28105wsking]

If thats only 35 away, its not going to be too bad. Whats the wind speed forcasted?

[@dfinlen]

130s with gusts to 1.75 . I'm guessing he's protected from the winds. Each hurricane is very different and unique is fast moving hurricanes that are tight and powerful sometimes aren't as bad as the much larger variance . Hurricane Charley was a strong cat 4 but no one remembers it.

[@dayd7527]

Erick be careful out there.

[@RonaldPetrin]

Nice boat!

[@SS11660]

I am not watching anybody crazy enough to stand out in this after you are telling everybody to evacuate and hunker down. Be responsible

[@thecakefate]

Why must this man stand in danger like this? :/

[@Humanity4ALL]

Bunker down dude, Florida is the lightening capital

[@richardlowe9379]

[@chrisr6142]

[@TimDiez-zm3px]

[@DontAsk-x6v]

That job isn't worth it.

[@aslammughal6884]

[@jeffhaynes8848]

[@aprilgilmour7321]

[@AG-yv8yb]

This guy wants to be employee of the month thats ok but pretty selfish especially if you have a family . They would be hurt if something happened. When your job will replace you the next day.

[@aiai-j7i]

This kind of reporting is so awful and sensationalistic. Very unnecessary.

[@Laura-i2r9r]

Worst place to build Multi level Hotels ,Condos and Apartments right on the shoreline . Anything to make money off the potential misery of others looking for a nice view but forgetting that they have to deal with Massive Hurricanes OPPs!!😮

[@TimDiez-zm3px]

They get insurance to replace it and then insurance goes higher for the poor class

[@bsbs5.0]

weather manipulation

[@1984Orwellian]

Whata ham. Acting

[@skyaerialfilms9758]

That guy has insurance?
