00:00Because the entire Metro Manila experienced flooding,
00:05the Metro Manila was submerged in a state of calamity.
00:08Marikina is one of the most affected by flooding
00:12when the Marikina River reached more than 20 meters.
00:16Go straight.
00:18The Marikina Filipino-Chinese Fire Brigade
00:21is one of the groups who went around the city on July 24
00:24to rescue the residents who were stranded by the river.
00:31Go straight.
00:34Help!
00:35But when it hit 8 o'clock in the evening,
00:37they did not expect what would happen.
00:44Help!
00:45Because of the rapid flow of water,
00:48their rubber boat sank.
00:55It's a good thing that the residents responded immediately
00:58to the call of the emergency services and other rescue teams.
01:01If not, they would have been swept away by the Marikina River.
01:06Wait! Wait!
01:07I'm not going!
01:08I'm not going!
01:09I'm not going!
01:10Wait! Wait!
01:12He's a kid.
01:13How old is he?
01:15He's a kid.
01:17He's a kid.
01:19He's a kid.
01:21Go straight.
01:22Go straight.
01:24You're still a kid.
01:25You're still a kid.
01:28You're still a kid.
01:32One day after the flood,
01:34the reporter's notebook found the volunteer rescuers
01:38at their station.
01:41They were in a hurry.
01:44The group told their five residents
01:46that they were rescued on their way to the evacuation center.
01:50Rescue!
01:53But when the rapid flow of water passed
01:55and they were swept away by the water,
02:01this is where their rubber boat capsized.
02:04Help!
02:08The current of the water suddenly increased.
02:11We were swept away by the water
02:12at the corner of Kabayani Road.
02:14The water subsided.
02:15The boat capsized.
02:17Rescue!
02:19Rescue!
02:21We were separated.
02:22We were separated.
02:24While the current was increasing,
02:26if one of us couldn't do it,
02:27we were separated.
02:29Help!
02:32I held the kid.
02:33We couldn't leave the tree.
02:35We couldn't leave the tree
02:36because the tree that we were holding gave way.
02:40We're complete there.
02:43We're complete there.
02:44Go down.
02:45Go down.
02:47One day after the rapid flow of water
02:49the volunteer rescuers visited a family in Marikina.
02:56They brought them to the place
02:57where they were bitten by a rat.
03:01They asked them
03:02how their mother was doing
03:03when they were rescued.
03:10The children are still getting stronger
03:11but they are still thankful
03:13to those who gave their lives.
03:15How are you, mother?
03:17I'm fine.
03:20It's a good thing that they didn't leave us.
03:23They gave us strength to fight.
03:29Miguel, who is 5 years old,
03:31had to hold on to a pole
03:33while the current was increasing.
03:36He was in a good condition.
03:39Thank you, sir.
03:41Thank you.
03:42Thank you very much.
03:44It's a big help
03:45when people come to us
03:47to give us strength.
