This is a pic off the Courier Mail news site, dude jumped into the water to rescue a little roo to the cheers of many standing by.

Friends in Brisbane told me last night that at one point they got 80mm (3.14inches) in a half hour. Officials said that some areas were estimated to have had 200mm (7.8 inches) during the same 30-minutes.

People were being air lifted from the city by air. This is a 500 to 1000 year flood.

The guy is wearing a wedding ring, kind of unfair to his family to risk his life for a critter.
