If there was ever a time for the phrase "out of the blue," this would be it.

Let us start with an unexpected deluge incident in Venezuela.

The moment a motorcycle passes by, a massive stream of water suddenly erupts from the road.

In an instant, chaos engulfs the area, looking almost as if a bomb had dropped.

This accident occurred in the state of Táchira, Venezuela.

The high water pressure damaged nearby shops, and a civilian suffered a head injury after being struck by a rock that shot up with the water.

The accident was caused by the sudden rupture of a water supply pipe buried beneath the road.

Local authorities immediately cut off the water supply and began restoration work on the water pipeline.
