A stand-alone flood barrier apparatus that bolts to the ground through anchor bolts (See Figure 1) that connects with other stand-alone flood barrier apparatus to make a circuit to protect a person's desired location they wish to protect against flood waters such as crop fields. The stand-alone zigzag sheeting then is protracted from the stand-alone base unit (Figures 3 to 8) and opened out for the end of sheeting to then fix into the retractable/expandable floor grip which is to be fully extended from the main unit (Figures 7,8 and 9), which the zigzag sheeting fixes into (Figures 3 to 8). The stand-alone apparatus & zigzag sheeting can be retracted back into the stand-alone main unit and locked for further use in the future. Also can be detached from the anchor bolts and stored or used elsewhere. Underneath the stand-alone main unit there is a spike running through the centre to keep away surface water. There is also a soft large rubber strip along the full base of the Stand-Alone unit to tolerate any undulations in the earth beneath the stand-alone apparatus. The Standalone can be reused until sufficient use makes It no longer capable of propelling water from the desired locations you wish to protect & recycled.
