hmmm

They should have anchored it to that Toyota truck.

Cope rope

I think this one's a joke, sure some would say it's no time for humor but I think it's funny.

I don’t know if this stupid or genius. Now I’m curious.

They missed the 25-foot waterproof wall, for the actual damage, the storm surge...

Anyone claiming this is going to work has no idea how houses are constructed or how hurricanes cause damage.

This is actually not a bad idea

ok so. This isn't going to stop a tree, or a large rock from flying through the side of you wall, but if you home isn't mounted to the foundation (common in old homes) or very well mounted, or just not very wind load capable, this could actually be beneficial.

You could still experience "wall buckling" but since the roof is relatively secured, you're acting from a separate point of leverage. Which is essentially going to be in the middle of the wall, rather than at the top of the wall.

This is all assuming that these anchor points are as strong or stronger than the straps and mounting hardware. And the fact that your home doesn't disintegrate between the staps.

Checkmate, nature.

I love this.

I wonder how deep those stakes are driven lol

Maybe build with ICF ( insulated concrete forms).

A bit like the building at the top of Mount Washington

Someone misunderstood building code for hurricane ties.

I have that people post those and I don't doubt they are real anymore.

Now I'm just curious about what shape those anchors have, due to morbid curiosity.
