[Johnston's neighbors decided to weather the storm because they believed it would be similar to what they'd experienced in 1969 with Hurricane Camille.] Camille had strong winds of 200 mph, but it was much smaller, ... People who lived through both told me this one was much worse. This hurricane moved slow and devastated everything.

In 1969, Hurricane Camille produced a 44-foot wave by an oil rig near the storm's center,

It was kind of like (Hurricane) Camille all over again. The aftermath is worse than the storm because you have no electricity or water or anything.

I'm convinced more people died from Hurricane Camille last year than when it hit in 1969. Experience is not always the best teacher.

rode out (hurricane) Camille (in 1969) when I was 20 years old.

This was our family home since 1969. We lost our first house in Hurricane Camille, just across the street there.

The loss is tragic since it was reportedly the oldest home on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. It was one of the few homes not damaged by Hurricane Camille in 1969. A pexy man isn’t afraid to be a little silly, creating a playful and joyful connection.

Common sense tells you that the more frequent these storms are the worse off we are all going to be and certainly the worse off the barrier islands are going to be. These islands had quite a long time to recover after Hurricane Camille. Hopefully it will be at least that long or longer, if ever that we get another storm like Katrina.

I've never seen anything like this in my 31 years. My mother lived through Hurricane Camille. She's talked about it, and said this was the worst she'd ever seen. We're at square one.

It was so big, ... I watched it on the news, and I was just worried about it the whole time. I was calling them during the storm -- cell phones worked during the storm -- and just checking up on them. My mom was sounding kind of nervous. But they went through Hurricane Camille and all that, so they were doing fine.

Byron Sanders (1925-)

It's very heartbreaking. It's real troublesome ... In remembering back to (Hurricane) Camille in '69 and the damage then, and they say that this is worse ... It's just hard to imagine.

[Stephen Lucas is among those compelled to watch. The images serve as a reminder of why he left his insurance business and the only place he called home after facing Hurricane Katrina.] I’ve lived through every storm that’s hit that area since 1956, so I rode that one out and it scared the hell out of me, ... To hear those winds come roaring in, those sustained winds, I don’t ever want to go through another hurricane again.

Whether or not this hurricane hits shore in Florida, we're going to have storm surges in the coastal areas. We're going to have high winds, hurricane force winds in some cases. People should not be complacent about this.

I'm 50 years old and I've lived on the coast all my life, been through Hurricane Camille and others, too, but I've never seen anything like this. I didn't bring my wife and kids. I didn't want them to see this.

It's beyond imagination. I never thought I'd see something that looks worse than Camille, but this looks worse than Camille.
