A Florida influencer has gone viral after she refused to leave her home due to Hurricane Milton despite knowing that she would likely die.
Caroline Calloway aka the ‘world’s worst influencer’ has decided to stay put despite claiming she is in a mandatory evacuation zone.
She shared a video on October 8 which has gained some traction for all the wrong reasons.
She said: “So if you’ve been following Hurricane Milton, um, I’m going to die.
“It’s supposed to make landfall in the Sarasota-Bradenton area. I’m in Sarasota, I live on the water. It’s a zone A, mandatory evacuation.”
She blamed the fact that she can’t drive and that the airport was closed. She also said “Third of all, the last time I evacuated for a hurricane, I went to my mom’s house in Northport for Hurricane Ian …
“Her whole street flooded and we were evacuated after three days without power or running water by the US military.
“It was very traumatic and so I don’t want to evacuate to my mom’s house because the last time I did that, it was the worst time ever!”
She added “I’ll keep you guys updated,”.
People were quick to comment that she needs to get to safety asap. One person wrote: “Caroline, i don’t know you, and what i have heard hasn’t been particularly good, so i need you to trust me when i tell you that you need to put your things in the first bag you find IMMEDIATELY, get in a car, and drive inland as FAST as you can. this is not a joke please be fr??”
