The River Forth at Kildean, Stirling, is famous for being a little bit prone to bursting its banks. Occasionally it does flood a little… but this is a bit more than usual.
Amongst the trees on the right of the picture is a sign – if you read it carefully you might be able to see that it says “Stirling Fisheries”. This sign is normally placed so as to be at a comfortable reading height when you stand (yes, stand!) beside it.
And then look for a little orange semicircle south-east of the Wallace Monument. That’s a lifebelt – normally it’s on the opposite bank of the Forth. Today you would be at risk of drowning just swimming to the lifebelt!
