Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and a Fox News reporter
0:05

0:11

This Fox News reporter was reporting live from the scene of the Burning Man festival
0:33
If you don't know what the Burning Man festival is, frankly, I'm not that familiar with it
0:37
myself, but apparently they all get together, they make a giant man, they burn it, it's
0:42
a big hippie convention basically, it's like Woodstock but for artists. Anyway, they get to the Nevada desert and rain happens in the Nevada desert and I mean
0:53
a lot of rain. Where they are flooded in, the gates to get in and out are both closed and there are some
1:00
reports of something even worse that I'm going to get to right after we look at her report
1:04
Further details have been given about the circumstances of that death just yet
1:09
Meanwhile 73,000 Burning Man attendees are ordered to shelter in place after torrential
1:14
rains reduced the Nevada venue into what you're seeing here, a muddy pit
1:19
The camps of the festival, which held in usually dry Black Rock desert, got pummeled
1:25
by the hours long rainstorm Friday. The roads have been closed down because of the sludge in the roads until further notice
1:33
The Twitter account Burning Man Traffic writing quote, the gate and airport in and out of
1:38
Black Rock City remain closed. Ingress and egress are halted until further notice
1:44
No driving is permitted except emergency vehicles. If you are in BRC, conserve food and water and shelter in a warm space
1:54
Attendees are hunkering down this morning together including celebrities. Video shows DJ Diplo and actor Chris Rock
2:02
They're hitching a ride with other party goers after walking five miles in the mud
2:07
Our own Claudia Cowan is at the festival and had this to say
2:11
The camps are hunkering down. We're supporting each other. We're making sure our neighbors have enough food and water and blankets
2:19
And we're still finding fun. Just a different kind of fun. It's not so much art, cars and parties, but really connecting with each other
2:27
And that's part of the burner spirit too. So we're going to get through this. It's certainly a Burning Man to remember
2:34
They certainly will remember that more rain is in the forecast for the area today
2:38
But the good news, sunshine is expected to return tomorrow. So let's hope for that
2:43
Back to you. Alright, thank you Jackie. Thank you Jackie. Now reports are going around that there's some kind of disease and they've named the
2:50
disease but I'm not going to name it here because it's just speculation at this point
2:55
But there's some kind of disease that's making people very, very sick and it's spreading
3:00
amongst the people. And now people are getting concerned to quarantine this place
3:06
You can Google online what this disease may be. I'm not going to make speculation here without any solid concrete proof
3:13
You have a situation where you have a commune full of hippies essentially and they're doing
3:22
in my opinion, what is ritual mock sacrifice. And then floods and plagues happen
3:30
So I don't want to cast aspersions at what that could be or what the reason for that
3:35
could be. I don't know. I can't speak to that. But you can draw your own conclusions
3:40
I would like to know what you think about this story here. I also want to tell you that Chris Rock was there along with a DJ named Diplo
3:47
He's a famous DJ. And Chris Rock and Diplo managed to get out of there safely in the back of a pickup truck
3:55
of one of the fans. That's the only celebrities we know of that were there
4:00
But usually there's a lot of celebrities there so we haven't heard much about that yet
4:04
I do want to know what you think about this story. Please leave that in the comments. Also please remember to like, share and subscribe because that really helps us out
4:11
I'm Carmine Sabia. This is Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you
