An impressive video has emerged of two kayakers getting surprised by a storm while they were out fishing in Bristol, RI, US.

The footage, filmed last year, shows the moment a massive cloud blackened the sky before it started raining and hailing heavily.

"A storm came in so quick that I had to hang on to the railing of a boat that was moored while hanging on to my friends yak to keep us from flipping. It was pretty intense," the filmer said online.

On this particular day my buddy and I went fishing up in Bristol RI. It was hot and we didn't catch anything. A storm came in so quick that I had to hang on to the railing of a boat that was moored while hanging on to my friends yak to keep us from flipping. It was pretty intense.! I had shut off the go pro to save battery, and when the storm was right over us I wasn't letting go of the railing. So I didn't get to film the worst of it.
