Gary Hall Jr is praying to find a puddle. It’s the best he can hope for, a week after the retired swimmer glanced up at the hills above Pacific Palisades and spotted a plume of smoke. An alert pinged on his phone around 10 minutes later. There was a fire, and evacuations were underway, the message read. It was a bit late.
Hall had already watched a ‘wall’ of flames tumble towards his house. He had already grabbed his dog and dodged the falling embers to reach his car. He had already begun to drive through the ‘apocalypse’ engulfing .
'People were pulling up on the sidewalks, trying to drive around other cars, blowing through stop signs and red lights. It was terror, absolute terror in the faces. Desperation,' he says.
