That was a long night. I appreciate your hard work and the risk you guys took to get this footage. Thank you!

I’m more impressed with the drone’s performance in the wind than the spectacle of the roof.

For all the youngens out there who don’t know, this is NOT the first time tropicanas roofs been ripped off by a hurricane.
Around 20 years ago it happened while there were people waiting the storm out inside.
Thankfully no one was injured, but they spent the night terrified and wet.
Guess the repair was more of a hail mary patch up than it was an actual repair to ensure it would survive a hurricane.
I have to look it up if it’s happened over the past 20 years.
I just remember when it happened then.
It was a HUGE deal at the time. Especially since the people who were sheltered there *still* were hit by the hurricane they were sheltering from.

Unreal. Never underestimate nature. Ever.

Seems that design was doomed to fail from the beginning, fabric in a hurricane zone. The fact the state of Florida chose it for 10K 🛏️ base camp of the Florida Division of Emergency Management is another story in itself.

In 1968, I was 4 years old growing up in Philadelphia. My parents decided to take the family to the new Spectrum arena to see the Ice Capades show.

It was a windy afternoon. The wind blew on us as Mom held my hand running across Pattison Avenue.

We walked into the Spectrum and down the aisle towards our seats. Next thing I remember were black tiles flying around like bats. People were running back up the steps towards the exits. The roof basically was blowing off the Spectrum.

Surprised the power is still on for much of the city

So heartbreaking to see the roof was ripped off. Totally a mess. Hope things would get back like it used to be soon

Terrifying stuff. I hope those who stayed are safe.

Fabric roof in an area that gets hurricanes? That may be the dumbest thing I have sent yet.

Wow, wow wow. conditions have deteriorated something that I’ve never thought I’d see. In my whole life. Much love to every city and place involved in this. And person of course.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The day after the Tropicana in Vegas was demolished

[Daphattack]

Wait so the roof really was just fabric? They knew this? Like this isnt like the Superdome where the roof is an ACTUAL ROOF. Whose idea was it that this could survive 100 mph gusts?
