16 Photos that show Mother Nature’s true strength

Nature is one of the few things you don’t want to bet against. You never know what it’s capable of.

Sometimes, nature just has a way of putting people in bad situations, but you have to take it on the chin. Let’s see how Mother Nature caused pain for the following people.

Dream Home Burns After Two Months

This person had bought their dream home two months before a wildfire burned it to the ground.

They were forced to watch it happen and couldn’t do anything about it. That’s got to be a terrible feeling.

Lions Await You, Sir

What would you do if you woke up and lions were waiting outside your door? This is in South Africa.

I can’t even imagine seeing this in real life. Hopefully, they weren’t planning on going out that day.

Storm Blows Nothing But The Grill Into The Pool

How did the storm manage to blow the grill into the pool, but the chairs didn’t make it in there?

Isn’t the grill a little heavier than those chairs? Maybe it was because of the wheels.

Mailbox Blows Up After Lightning Strike

Well, no one asks for stuff like this to happen to their property. I’m not even sure insurance can cover this.

Lightning strikes wherever it wants to, and there isn’t much humans can do about it.

This man went into his attic to see about a leak and ended up finding something much scarier during the pandemic.

He said the skin was fresh, which means the snake was still in there somewhere, lurking around.

“If You Thought Smoking At A Gas Pump Was Bad…”

Imagine your Tesla was about to die during your road trip, and this was the only charging station close enough to save the day.

That seems like one of the only pitfalls of owning an EV. If there aren’t any charge stations around, you’re out of luck.

“It Was A Hot Day In Tallahassee”

When the heat is too much to handle, your body will help as best as it can. This man sweated his backpack off.

That’s a lot of water damage to that shirt, so I hope it isn’t one of his favorites.

Losing Both Cars To A Tree

This family managed to lose two cars at the same time from one tree. That’s nature killing two birds with one stone.

On a serious note, I hope they didn’t have road trip plans coming up.

Lambo Had No Insurance In São Paulo

Why wouldn’t you get insurance for such an expensive car? If it’s too much to pay for, you shouldn’t own a vehicle like this.

Can you imagine the face the owner had when they saw this water damage?

There’s A Honda Under There…

When it snows so much you can’t even find your car under all of it, that’s nature trolling you.

Most people wouldn’t even know that there was something under this massive pile of ice and snow.

This Is A Normal Day In Utah

If this is considered a normal day in Utah, I don’t want it. They can keep this out there.

Nothing about this looks like a good environment to live in unless you like tumbleweeds like an old western film.

This Is Thanks To 110 MPH Winds

After seeing this, no one needs to be outside when winds are strong. Do you want to get impaled by a chair?

That thing went straight into the house like it was no big deal. That’s pretty wild.

“When It Snows Before The Leaves Fall Off”

This isn’t a combination that a car owner is fond of. Wiping off all that snow probably wasn’t easy.

The leaves just make the whole situation even worse than it originally could’ve been. Nature can be annoying.

When You Should Listen To Evacuation Orders

If you get orders to evacuate for whatever reason, it’s probably best you listen, especially after seeing this.

This person would need a life jacket to escape this home. That’s a lot of dirty water, so there’s no telling what’s inside it.

When You Forget To Close The Window In Svalbard, Norway

People who live where it snows often need to get it together. I’ve seen too many mistakes like this.

Why are you even opening windows in the first place? Isn’t it too cold for all that air to enter inside?

Hail Won This Battle

Hail doesn’t care if you drive one of the nicest cars in the world. It’s going to fall as hard and large as it wants.

I know the owner of this car wasn’t impressed by this in the slightest.
