(Baton Rouge, Louisiana) - Crews in Baton Rouge were recently seen wading through a flooded street as they attempted to address an issue in one neighborhood, and one resident offered up his own commentary on the situation.

WBRZ caught up with one man in the Baton Rouge neighborhood where the flood occurred, and he described seeing a city worker in water up to his chest, then even played director by telling the cameraman to zoom in on the water.

His commentary is priceless, and you have to believe that the man knew that he would go viral on social media if he upped the antics, and now he has.

Streets Flooding in Baton Rouge

In the video, you can see the city using a pump to drain a section of the street that flooded due to what appears to be a water line issue, and their effort did not go unnoticed.

However, it wasn't the work and efforts of those who work for the city that got most of the attention; it was the man whom the Baton Rouge station interviewed that literally 'stole the show."

After seeing many people on local news channels go viral for their reactions to stories, you always have to ask, "Who is next?" Well, the latest viral sensation may have come from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and now we just hope that more people see this man's explanation for the rising water in his neighborhood.
