While speaking to The Telegraph about the wildfires, Harrison revealed that he was one of the last people left after mandatory evacuation was ordered.
“I stayed, even though everyone, you know, the police came and they said, ‘Evacuate,’” Harrison explained. “And everyone had left, I was the only one there.”
Harrison further pointed out that he had helped his 89-year-old father before protecting the 3-acre Los Angeles property he purchased in 2010. After watering the roof and removing the outdoor furniture, he realized he didn’t have help.
He decided to hide behind the boulder to avoid the flames.
“I’m still hiding behind the boulders,” Harrison revealed in a video. He then showed his home being decimated by the wildfires.
Harrison then shared that he had tried to drive away from the area, but his Mercedes wouldn’t start.
“It was hell. It was inferno… I really couldn’t see because of all the orange, breathing smoke and everything,” he told The Telegraph. “I fell on my rib, and then I just took cover behind the rocks, and there were sheets of embers just going over me.”
Harrison said he was finally able to find a working car. He then filmed the terrifying landscape as he drove through the streets. He was rescued by firefighters just as the vehicle caught on fire.
