Torrential downpours brought parts of Hillingdon to a standstill on Thursday (June 23) as people battled to get home and make their way to polling stations for the EU referendum .

Both this video posted on Facebook showed that not everyone was going to have their mood dampened by flash flooding and heavy rains.

Ruislip Manor Station was badly affected by the flooding and these two decided to take a little dip in the fast flowing waters.

One decides to brave the cold waters to wait briefly at a bus stop, while the other goes topless to take a quick dip before he is rugby tackled into the water by his soggy companion.

Videos also emerged from the same storms of a Range Rover getting stranded in the deep water at the station , while a man was also spotted sailing down Cowley Road in Uxbridge on a pink lilo.
