The French original of the sentence "After me, the flood" is "Après moi, le déluge", but it means "After me, the flood will be terrible", which is very different from the well-known "After me, the flood will be terrible".

Another original French version-"Aprè s Nous, le déluge" (English: After us, The flood) means "After we die, there will be a big flood". This version is also very popular and even authoritative.
