It was completely different from anything I’ve ever seen in a post-apocalyptic film—in fact, it’s the closest thing I can compare this experience to.
In another interview with the Sydney Morning Herald, Gary Hall, Jr. said, “It was 1,000 times worse than any apocalypse movie you’ve ever seen.”
“My daughter and I were speaking on the phone. Over the rear side of my home, I saw a column of smoke.
I watched as homes began to burst and the flames flared. Explosions occurred. I was pressed for time. There was a total gridlock on Sunset Boulevard.
People were fleeing for their lives and abandoning automobiles. That was what the police were ordering them to do. Due to smoke, my girlfriend was stranded in her vehicle.
“Los Angeles is in chaos. There were flames all around us. I got inside my vehicle as the embers rained down on me.
