A Florida man has garnered lots of online attention after photos of his unique Hurricane Milton home preparation went viral.
Spectrum News 13 viewer Mohammed Nijem, of Tampa, sent in a photo of his father-in-law’s Orange County home completely strapped to the ground ahead of the Category 3 storm’s touchdown on Wednesday night:
“I don’t know if this is dumb really dumb or pretty smart,” an X user wrote under the image of the house, which has garnered nearly two million views.
“This is the most Florida thing I’ve ever seen,” another person said.
“This guy has been waiting for this moment for a long time,” yet another user replied.
The house belongs to Pedro Caceres, anchor Greg Angel said in an update on Facebook.
“Family says all is well and home held up,” the reporter noted.
At least 12 people are dead as a result of Hurricane Milton, NBC News reported.
