The barrier islands off the coast of southwest Florida bore the brunt of Hurricane Ian's fury.

On Wednesday afternoon, a torrent of water whipped up by the storm tore through the island - barely leaving a building untouched, ruining homes and taking lives. When they reach the jetty, a dozen survivors are waiting. They all have their own story to tell of Wednesday afternoon when Ian made landfall.

"This is like an A-bomb hit this place. I was in Vietnam in 1968/69 and this is what it reminds me of. First it took off my roof, then it took off my upper staircase, and the only thing I have left now is my two bedrooms in the back and I had my cats in the bedrooms with me. That's it, I have nothing else."
