In July, a massive mudslide in Costa Rica caused flooding and damage to the Aguas Zarcsa area. One video shows Costa Rican men running over a bridge before it gets absolutely decimated by debris.

A man with only an umbrella and prayer by his side speeds into the road as a tree begins falling over him. The man recording the video urges him to keep running when he looks back. The bridge is still in tact but mud and debris continue to fall into the river and on the road.



In another video angle, an electrical wire tumbles down onto a building at the other end of the bridge and catches fire. Reaffirming that the man with the umbrella is an incredibly luck and fast individual.


Though did he need the umbrella? Definitely, not for the rain —but when there’s a mudslide with debris, a black umbrella quickly turns into Captain America’s shield.
