Los Angeles couple's harrowing escape as Eaton Fire approached their home caught on video doorbell

The Kus are among Los Angeles residents forced to flee from the wildfires that tore through the city. On social media, the Kus described the experience as "34 minutes of pure terror."

"The Eaton fire had just started in the hillside above us and we had to act FAST," Jeffrey Ku wrote in an Instagram post. "Winds gusting, no electricity, we grabbed what we could. I took videos of the fire between trips to the car and I never would have imagined how quickly the conditions could get worse. By the time we left, smoke had filled the air making it hard to breath [sic], embers flying everywhere, and the sky was bright orange."

"Please God. Please God, save us. Please God, save our house, please," Jeffery can be heard saying in the video before leaving his home for what he "thought would be the last time."

In his Instagram post, Jeffery Ku said his house was still standing but noted that he knew others who were not as lucky and "lost everything." Ku also expressed his gratitude for the first responders battling the terrifying blaze.

The Los Angeles wildfires have terrorized residents for a week, have killed at least 24 people and forced thousands to flee for their lives.
