They have also been posting on Facebook, notifying friends of the massive destruction going on around them.

"We are not out alive yet," wrote Burruss, as he asked pals for help.

Haynes' sister said that the duo had to leave the hotel they were staying at because there was a huge lack of supplies and they were not safe.

"There was looting and locals were getting violent because of a shortage of supplies. Andrew and Kerman only have one gallon of water left between them."

Said Karen Haynes: "Oh my gosh it's been incredibly difficult. You just have this helpless feeling all you have is the phone. We don't know anyone on the island. We've been in touch with the embassy but they've had trouble with communication and they have no idea when they may be able to help with a rescue."
