Chris Rock and Diplo have escaped Burning Man after they were picked up by a fan while exiting the festival.This weekend tens of thousands of festival attendees were left stranded in the Nevada desert after rainfall created muddy conditions, which resulted in the shut down of the festival three days early.

It was due to run from August 27 to September 4, 2023.Attendees were told to stay in their camps and conserve food and water, with roads in and out of the event closed due to flooding.However, the US comedian and DJ managed to exit the festival after hitching a ride in a fan’s pickup truck along with other festival-goers.“A fan offered Chris Rock and I a ride out of Burning Man in the back of a pick up,” Diplo wrote in a social media video posted Saturday (September 2). “After walking 6 miles through the mud… all Chris could think about was a f&cking cold brew.”I legit walked the side of the road for hours with my thumb out cuz i have a show in dc tonight and didnt want to let yall down.

Also shoutout to this guy for making the smart purchase of a truck not knowing it was for this exact moment ❤️ ♬ original sound – Diplo He added in the caption: “I legit walked the side of the road for hours with my thumb out cuz i have a show in dc tonight and didnt want to let yall down.
