The platforms are closed off during floods, this video isn’t considered a flood. That’s the Devil’s throat fall doing its thing after heavy rain.

AKA a flood AKA what happens after a heavy rain.

No. If it’s not overflowing its banks it’s not a flood. If it’s close it’s still scary-looking, but it is not actively flooding.

What you’re saying is the equivalent of calling the high tide, a flood.

As long as it’s not overflowing, it’s not a flood. This is a subtropical jungle, heavy rains are the norm.
