This is as close as we have to security camera video as a resident of the Champlain Towers South had her Ring camera installed in her condo and luckily they were away for the day. Their ring camera captured the collapse of the Miami condo building as it happened and in this video we step through it frame by frame to show you things that you might not have noticed before. We also show you the proper places to donate to help the surfside cause without getting scammed. do not donate to any person website or entity asking you for money for surfside that isn't part of these two links below that have been vetted. Anything other than those two sides below are likely to be scams. one person has already stolen the identity of several of the dead victims in trying to get credit in their names.

What's your opinion on that jump in time at the beginning? I feel like there's more video before what's being shown. I have ring cameras and they will start to record when there's motion, then record for the time specified, then there's a brief break in the filming as that time of recording stops and the next "session" gets triggered by more motion. It's not one continous clip. Could be we're seeing the last "snapshot" capture before the video starts recording the motion. So the box is there against the wall in the snapshot, building moves, Ring picks up motion and starts recording and that's where we start with the box leaning in the video.

Two things I would point out: The view of the couch is likely distorted by the wide angle / fish lens. Even what the camera is resting on looks curved up at each end, but it is likely a straight, flat surface the camera is on. But a very important detail is the angle the debris is falling ! The camera is 'level' with the living room, but I don't think the floor of the living room is level with the ground anymore. Draw a straight line 'down' at the same angle as the falling debris at 0:36 in the video... this room is now tilted about 10 to 15 degrees down on the right side!! That would also explain why the QLED TV box tipped that way.

I feel people should've known it wasn't construction. What construction happens after midnight? Not blaming them though. A building should always be structurally safe and sound. The lady who woke up heard and saw the building cracking before her eyes, changed out of her robe into clothes. Grabbed her purse, put on her shoes and escaped before it collapsed definitely had more than 20 seconds to get out. This is when it was cracking and moaning before the actual collapse. The building gave warnings.

The angle of the falling dust suggests that the entire room is tilting increasingly to the right with the video ending at about 20 degrees of tilt. The camera is moving with the room so any translation is relative to the mounting point of the ring camera and therefore movement only shows deformation of the room. The deformed partition indicates shearing between floor and ceiling which seems to accelerate in the final frames. It would be an illuminating exercise to rotate the video over time to keep the falling dust vertical and give a more realistic impression of the room's changing orientation.

8:51 Maybe the floor or the unit itself was indeed shifting because Iliana Monteagudo said that her balcony door opened itself and when she tried to close it she couldn't do it, it was stuck, and then she realized of the crack coming down from the ceiling that made her run out of there because she knew the building was going to collapse.

@Blue Flu I think she's on her 60's. It wasn't her day definitely, she didn't took the sleeping pills that day so she wasn't totally asleep and she said something waked her up. I'm impressed too how quickly she realized, but also survived because she took the ''wrong'' stairs because she didn't know she had another stairs just next to her apartment. Her apartment (and the stairs she didn't took) collapsed when she was going down the stairs in the 4th floor of the part that didn't collapsed, she heard the whole thing going down and thought that was the end for her.

When the falling debris starts to come down at an angle, since we assume gravity will have the particles fall vertical to the surface of the ground, you can in your mind rotate the footage clockwise to bring the lines from the debris to be vertical. Doing that shows that the section of the building in this footage would be leaning to the right as the collapse is occurring.

It gets 'white' because night security cams have INFRARED LEDs emitting IR light. To the naked eye, this apartment was probably pitch dark. The camera sees the IR light it shoots out, bouncing around the room lighting it up in IR (which we can't see but the camera can, it shifts it to visible light during recording) SO: anything close to the camera, gets VERY LIGHTED UP because the IR LED's are meant to 'light up' a 30 square foot area... We have had IR emmiters and cameras for some 30-40 years...

@photographicswoman3538 2 жыл бұрын

Jeff, as a professional photographer I can help you with a few issues regarding this video. To begin with, please know I have watched the Ring footage quite a few times outside of your video. Ring cameras use a wide angle lens (a lens which is less than 35mm on a camera with interchangeable lenses) which is why the image appears the be bowed towards the viewer, and why the furniture on the right seems to be on an incline. At the point in the video where everything goes white, the Ring camera is slightly shifted from its original position, giving the viewer a slightly different vantage point. This video provides invaluable data, however it’s necessary to understand the issues I’ve addressed when analyzing the footage. On a different note, I want to thank you for all of your hard work concerning the videos you’ve published concerning the late Champlain Towers South. Having once worked for an engineering firm, I know it is an extremely technical field and not easy to understand. You have a wonderful way of breaking down complex information so those of us who are not engineers can understand. You and Building Integrity are the only two KZfaq channels I watch in an attempt to understand this catastrophe. Thank you for your time and expertise, and please know I greatly appreciate all of your hard work.

Agreed. I was a 3-D Draftsman back before CAD-CAM was born and did almost all 3-D mechanical drawings. If you look at the direction of the "lipping" of the floor tile and compare it to an imaginary line from the nearest leg on our left side of the couch to the nearest leg on the right side, you will see quite a pronounced difference in direction. The end of the couch on our right looks to be a couple of feet further away from the camera, creating a perspective on the right end of the couch that makes it appear to be elevated, although in reality it is not. The couch did slide to our left a few inches as the rebound in direction of the building occurred.

His building has gone through the 40 year recertification and was waiting on the engineer's signature when the collapse happened. Now, he cannot find anybody to sign the recertification document. He also tells me that some buildings in south Florida have used beach sand (with salt) instead of clean sand as part of the concrete that was used to build the columns. Humidity dissolves the salt and the salt water leaves the concrete. Then the rebar starts to rust. I've also seen a ten story building in Hollywood about 5 miles away from the collapse that the concrete has fallen off the building exposing the rebar. It looks like there is a problem with many buildings in Florida.

Looking at the original video on twitter without the high brightness, you actually can see the building is moving all the time. The shadow on the wall next to the TV is constantly moving...first slowly, then faster towards the end of the video... Also the wall/column on the left curved more and more to left during the video. The last frame of the inside footage shows that the building actually collapses. The wall/column on the left is breaking at the top third of the image and additional cracks appear at the ceiling right next to it. Also the immediate pic after the initial frame looks like the wall is that tilted so that the TV box already fell :O This could mean the building was tilted already including the camera itself.

I remember seeing in that one video when water was coming down in the garage that the room above it had their lights on!

Thanks for the excellent analysis! It has been productive learning about the design failures that were ignored at the cost of 150 lives!

In that video, that huge snap you hear halfway through, shakes the TV box. I wonder if that was a floor tile snapping underneath it?

Those snaps you hear are the rebar snapping like a toothpick. Scary

Yup, seems like the most likely origin of the sound.

To me it sounds like a giant switch being clicked or a gear being moved into place.

Thought the exact same when I first saw this video. And the box jumps midway during the vid.

I still say that the pool deck was weak and could not take the weight over the years of neglect of proper maintenance and probably improper drainage of the pool deck. The weight of all those planters in that specific area the pool deck couldn't take it any more. That dose look like a planter in the parking garage in that video

The drain at the entrance ramp was also leaking, you can see the cracks from it in the video of the garage, the water was leaking down into the slab. I'm willing to bet under the pool deck and the garage slab, there was a void under it all from water from various things, the planters, the ramp drain, the pool deck, no water proofing, and high tide waters coming in, all creating erosion creating a void, this building didn't have a chance, it's clear the punch shearing is also another factor due to water erosion.

@@elizabethwilson9686 yes I agree very bad workmanship and bad maintenance of the building. I was also looking at the roof the roof was very dirty compared to its sister building which is clean

@brasilgirl2848 2 жыл бұрын

I don’t know about the workmanship as it was a forty year old building that was not kept up. They were just starting to work on the roof before the collapse. The other buildings were probably better maintained.

Also if you look at pictures from the building towards the pool there are some pictures that show a long line of a depression up against the perimeter wall. Not between the pool and the wall, but pretty much as the pool ends and extending down maybe 15-20 feet away from the pool (so it would be moving from the pool to the right from the angle of the building). I can't remember exactly which video had the pictures, but it was one of this channel's earlier analysis of the collapse. The one (or one of the ones) talking about the pictures from the guy checking over the pool maintenance area. It was pretty obvious if you were looking in the right area, but easy to miss if you are focused on the pool itself. It is easier to see if you are focusing on the perimeter wall and then it becomes obvious. Not sure the reason for it or if it had even the slightest bit to do with the collapse, but worth pointing out at least.
