Video footage captures the harrowing escape of a Los Angeles couple as the Eaton Fire neared their home.

Jeffrey and Cheryll Ku, residents of Altadena, recorded harrowing footage of their escape from their home on January 7th as the Eaton Fire neared.

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

"Jeffrey Ku wrote on Instagram about the Eaton fire that had just started on the hillside above them. They had to act quickly as the winds gusted and there was no electricity. They grabbed what they could and Jeffrey took videos of the fire between trips to the car. He never imagined how quickly the conditions could deteriorate. By the time they left, the air was filled with smoke, making it difficult to breathe, embers were flying everywhere, and the sky was a bright orange."

The video shows Cheryll Ku frantically calling Jeffery, saying "we have a very big problem." She later says "babe, we gotta go." The video alternates between scenes of the couple running in and out of their home with their belongings and near-apocalyptic shots of the Eaton Fire, including a fiery red sky.

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

Jeffery Ku's Instagram post revealed that his house remained intact, but he acknowledged that others had lost everything in the fire. He thanked the first responders for their efforts in fighting the blaze.

At least 24 people have been killed and thousands have been forced to flee for their lives due to the wildfires in Los Angeles that have been causing terror for a week.

Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Kristin Crowley issued a warning on Tuesday about "life-threatening and destructive" winds, stating that the "danger has not yet passed." Crowley emphasized that the department is "cautiously managing our operations to ensure a quick response to any new fires."
