In case you didn’t hear the Apocalyptic news, it rained in Los Angeles last week.
A lot.
But that didn’t prevent NBC reporter Miguel Almaguer from doing his job, as the journalist ventured into mud four feet deep in order to depict the dangerous conditions and to warn viewers about getting stuck in the mud as the rain poured down.
Almaguer then got stuck in the mud.
Seriously!

"He’s probably never going to see those boots again,” Roland Sprewell, a fire captain with the County of Los Angeles Fire Department, told The New York Daily News.
