As Hurricane Milton ravages Florida with devastating winds of up to 100 mph, Pedro Casares from Orlando took an extraordinary approach to protect his home. In a viral image shared by Spectrum Bay News 9, Pedro fastened six large yellow straps from the roof of his one-story house to the ground, prompting both humor and admiration online. One commenter joked, “Everyone is laughing now, but this man will be a legend.”
Meanwhile, the storm has claimed two lives, with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis confirming 19 tornadoes. Theme parks, including Disney World, remain closed, and financial losses could hit $200 million. Tampa Mayor Jane Castor urged residents to stay indoors as the hurricane’s damage is assessed. The US National Hurricane Center warned of the deceptive calm during the eye of the storm.
