Watch Jim Cantore rescue another reporter from being swept away by Hurricane Michael's fierce winds

Even seasoned weather reporters had trouble withstanding the strong winds of Hurricane Michael.

As the deadly storm moved through Panama City Beach, Florida, on Wednesday, NBC News' Kerry Sanders was covering it on camera when he nearly got swept away. Thankfully, Weather Channel's Jim Cantore was able to step in and come to his rescue.

In a video NBC Washington shared on Twitter, Sanders can be seen struggling to find his footing in the face of the hurricane's fierce winds. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, Cantore appears, and helps Sanders make his way to a pole so that they can both brace themselves.

After the winds die down slightly, Sanders is able to head off to safety, while Cantore surprisingly walks back into the storm.

(Fun fact: Cantore was almost impaled by a 2x4 while covering Hurricane Michael on Wednesday.)

The footage just goes to show how vicious of a storm Hurricane Michael was. So far, the storm -- which made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane on Wednesday -- has claimed two lives, left 900,000 without power, and buildings along the Florida panhandle have been flooded and destroyed, according to a Weather Channel report.
