So how does this great flood, if it can be proved to have happened (which it can't) prove the existence of your god?
Let's take a look at what we do when there is a huge storm.
In Australia, what happens when it starts storming is this: Most of us smart people all go undercover and stay inside and just watch the storm while we can't do anything about it. If there is a big flood then the roads will be cut off and there is nowhere to go.
I don't see how the way the people back then would have done anything different. "Oh it is raining, better get inside until it stops."
By the time the water would have got to their doorsteps it would have been pretty much too late. All means of escaping would have been blocked off by water. That and the rain would still be pouring down.
Now let's just say for argument sake that by some God given miracle some humans managed to survive this massive flood. You have yet to explain how all of the animals would have survived. Maybe some animals might have been saved by some humans, going that far. Then there are the wild animals.
Even if you try to help the wild animals, with some animals that won't work. What do you think would happen if you approached a lion or a bear? They would attack and kill you on site. They would have drowned in the flood, then would have become extinct.
So explain to me how the wild animals would have survived such a cataclysmic flood. Perhaps you could start with the elephants? How do you save an elephant from drowning?
If they were not saved by the ark, how else would they have been saved? The wild beasts ofcourse.
