Terrifying moments as floodwaters from Ida collapsed a basement wall, leaving family members trapped.
Water then broke through a wall in a rush, trapping a mother and son.
A security camera in the home caught it on video.
"One of the family's sons was walking across the basement and made it the steps moments before the collapse, likely saving his life. The second son, trapped inside, found an air pocket by punching a tile out of the drop ceiling. His brother and father used an outdoor umbrella to punch a window out and pull him to safety.
At the other end of the room, the mother was clinging to a boiler with about four inches of water to spare. Her husband called to her, asking her to swim toward him so she could open a window and be pulled out.
Having survived, the family said their lives have been changed forever."
