Man gets creative to walk through flooded garden

An amusing video has emerged of a man battling his way through a flooded garden in a novel and creative way.

The footage, filmed yesterday in the US, shows the filmer's father-in-law wearing big buckets on his feet to traipse through a flooded area outside a house. He nearly falls over at least once.

Parts of the US including South Carolina and Virginia have been hit by flooding in the last week as Hurricane Joaquin brushed passed the region.
