The absolute worst thing about a tornado is that it can Take out 3 blocks of houses side by side.. boom boom boom. Then it can leave one house perfectly fine. No scratches, no dents. You just never know if your house is gonna be the house. I've seen this happen over and over.

There's a house near where I grew up that CONSTANTLY attracted all the (admittedly weak, as this is in Maryland) tornadoes. It never took out the house, but it wreaked havoc on their trees/shingles/siding/windows all the time. Just that one house. My theory is that it was kind of in between hills on one of the "normal" tornado paths in the county, so it just sort of got funneled over there. But who knows?

Yeah. Shit is insane. Luckily, haveng had any touchdown where I'm at for a bit, but we have quite a few that've been way too close. Last one here was rain wrapped, but my family and I were a few towns over and could see it from there. Luckily, it just kinda hopped over most buildings, tore up alotta trees, and twisted apart the cell tower up on the highway.

Tornadoes are terrifying, and you should always be "weather aware" if visiting the US. I've been "in the path" (Tornado warning, push notifications, outdoor sirens, TV weather people on constantly) 4 times. 3 in Atlanta, one in Memphis Tennessee. Never saw the tornado, and each seemed to dissipate before reaching our part of town. But then a lot of Atlanta tornadoes are at night or rain-wrapped, so you couldn't see them anyway. Just took a weather radio into the central hall with the pets, pillows, blankets, and bike helmets until the "all clear" was sounded. Rather be prepared and not be hit, than be hit and not prepared.

A small, isolated tornado touched down about a mile from my house about a month ago. My husband looked out the window about 20 minutes before the touchdown and said to me, "I dont like the looks of things out there." So we took our dogs and went into the interior hallway (no windows) and waited untill the storm let up, then heard about it on the news. Our power was out for an entire week. Texas. 🤠

I’m about to get geeky here for a minute. Underworld talks about the Elie-Manitoba tornado, but he never talks about how weird that tornado actually was. It was like no other. Most tornadoes just move in one straight direction Northeast. But this tornado, it was as if it was sentient. Like it was an actual “thing”. It moved across the farmland with a mere amount of strength, suddenly making a 90 degree turn South, hitting the highway and overturning a semi before it made another 90 degree turn Eastward toward a mill as if it was targeting it. As it reached the mill, it reached EF-2 strength and hit it head-on. But as if it wasn’t satisfied with its work, it looped back around and hit the mill again. It then turned South again, then turned East again, headed directly for the edge of a neighborhood South of town at weaker strength. As it looked like it was going to miss them as it went down the street, it then made another loop directly over the last houses at the street. Immediately shooting up to EF-4 and EF-5 strength. After hitting the houses, it then turned South and headed out of town, but not before doing a loop on itself one last time before dying out. In the end, the tornado was originally rated as EF-4, but was changed to EF-5, after an ominous video taken by an onlooker surfaced, showing the tornado as it lifted an entire house in one piece, and tossed it hundreds of yards away. This tornado changed direction five times, and looped back on itself three times. Every time it wasn’t hitting a structure, it traveled at weaker strength like it was preserving its strength until it reached a structure.

Reed Timmer has a new show out on KZread called twisters IRL. First episode aired today, 13 minutes long so good for a reaction. His objective when he chases is to literally get hit by the tornado in his tank of a vehicle covered in armour so he can measure data for research.

Our prep for tornadoes….. 1. All photos are saved to the cloud along with artwork etc that we want to keep. 2. All serial numbers for all electronics are recorded and uploaded to the cloud. 3. We take pictures every 6 months from each corner from each room and open drawers etc. easier for insurance adjusters. 4. Everything is in the cloud outside of certain documents. I keep one copy of all our government documents and other copies of credit cards etc at the security safety box at the bank and one at home. Otherwise we just make sure we have food, water, batteries, a handheld radio, etc and go to our basement and hope we don’t get hit. If it happens we are as prepared as we can get. That’s all we can do. Southwest Kansas is where I live. Sirens go off all the time. 😂😂😂

I’ve been around too many tornadoes. The last one I was upstairs in my house and it started to rain but then it was like sand was being thrown at my windows. I then heard that iconic “ freight train noise” and I ran to get to the basement. My 130 pound Rottweiler was up against the kitchen cabinets not moving. It took some convincing to get her to get to the basement. The rain was sideways and you couldn’t see through it. It tore up my neighbors roof but didn’t touch us. A tornado can strip the bark off a tree. They are strong.

I'm from Jonesboro. That tornado passed less than a mile away from my house (probably about 1/2 a mile), and destroyed the neighborhood right next to my church. Pretty much the only buildings untouched over there were the church building and the pastor's house next to the church. The mall that was destroyed STILL hasn't been completely fixed. You didn't hear it cause you were talking, but it happened right as lockdown started, and if there wasn't a lockdown, there would have possibly been THOUSANDS, at least hundreds, of people at the mall when it got hit. We can safely say that the lockdowns saved lives because of this incident, lol. My sister lives in Little Rock, and they got hit by a tornado last year that was less than a quarter of a mile away from her house. She knew neighbors that lost everything. It was deemed a "mass casualty" event. I dunno the actual numbers, though.

If you haven't already, you've gotta look into the 2020 Nashville tornado where the crane operator was trapped 400 feet up in the crane and filmed it. It's a little hard to see since it was at night - our tornados like to hit at night for some reason - but it's still terrifying. Also, a natural gas pumping station about an hour from Nashville was hit by a tornado and exploded in 2008. I've never found a video of it but there are photos.

Ryan is a meteorologist who employs storm chasers and other meteorologists during tornado and severe thunderstorm outbreaks to basically Now-cast them. It's an amazing watch but usually very long streams of 8 to 12 hours but you'll learn a lot about how all this works. Reed is a loud, boisterous character but entertaining to watch. His vids would be great drama for the channel. He recently got INCREDIBLE drone footage of a massive F4 with many smaller vortices wrapping around it. GORGEOUS storm but I think it did massive damage.

I remember as a pre-teen I was in the Girl Guides...maybe the Canadian version of Girl Scouts? We had gone on a camping trip (basically at the back of a farm of one of the girls families) and it suddenly started pouring. We were trying to deal with leaking tents etc when one of the leaders ran around the site screaming TORNADO! We all ran to the house a couple acres away for safety. The next morning we all went out to see the damage and there wasn't a single tent still standing. The coolers with the food etc were found in trees and clothing was no where to be found. One of the scariest experiences I have had to this day!

A few years ago , I worked at a company that advised restaurants on improvements. We were at a family style restaurant near Topeka Kansas. Being from Maryland, I never experienced a tornado. There have been tornadoes here but nothing even close to mid west tornadoes. We were at work and suddenly there was siren. I’m thinking firehouse. A few seconds later, there was a mad dash of people moving into the basement. I was bewildered as to what was happening. Someone said “ tornado “ I became part of the crowd rushing to the basement. Nothing ever came from it. I never heard the ‘ freight train ‘ sound and there was no damage done that I could see. The panic and fear that thing created was immense. The locals there experienced the destruction these monsters were capable of. A tornado report nearby was enough to immediately shut down a entire town with no advance notice. If people who lived in fear of this would run from this so quickly then they were experienced. These tough farmers. They hesitate. There was no machismo that day but fear respect.

Tornadoes are the color of what they are eating !! With me living in Alabama and Georgia for the last 60 years has given me the chance to see 8 tornadoes .My home in Georgia was damaged by one . We lived on the West side of a mountain and the tornado came up the East side and sat down past our house . We ended up with half of a large Oak tree in our house . We also had a good bit of debris on our property from other homes . We had a refrigerator in our front yard from a home about 3/4 of a mile away on the East side of the mountain .The most amazing tornado I have seen was when I was around 10 years old . After school I was at my Grandmother's house at the end of the mill village I grew up in . Luckily it stayed up over the village and sat down in the ball field across the road from her house . After the ball field there were like 6 miles of heavy woods . Mostly large Oak trees and about midway through there was Interstate 85 and you couldn't even hear the automobiles traveling on it . But when the tornado had passed , you could see the automobiles traveling the interstate from my Grandmother's front yard !!!

Some people chase because they're adrenaline junkies...they cheer and immediately drive away. Then there's another type of chaser. They love chasing, but they also provide early warning to the storm-spotting network and weather outlets...they immediately arrive to areas hit by the tornado...they come equipped with chainsaws to help make roads passable for emergency vehicles, as well as first aid kits, etc. to use as they assist with looking for people trapped in collapsed structures.

I live in Jonesboro and my daughter always says “Covid did one good thing” because our mall was completely destroyed but was luckily mostly empty so nobody was severely injured or died. It was terrifying! I used to not get scared when tornado sirens went off because it happens so often around here but in 2017 my parents house was destroyed and then in 2020 the one in Jonesboro happened and we were about 1/2 a mile from the mall that was destroyed. Now I get my ass in the storm shelter as soon as the sirens go off

0:59 To answer your questions: Basically tornado's start when warm, moist air and cool dry air collide with each other and start to swirl in the sky. As it go faster and faster it will start to move the clouds forming whats called a "hook" that can be seen on radar. As the air continues to spin, the cooler air it starts to move downward, kinda like water in a drain with the warmer air moving upward until "touchdown" where the swirling air is now connected from the storm above to the ground below. That giant "tumbleweed" is the dirt and dust being kicked upward from the warmer air giving the tornado a visible form. So while it looks unconnected, in truth there is an entire funnel there, but about half is almost invisible because the dirt hasn't finished making it's way upward and the clouds haven't finished making their way down. The drill bit tornado (7:25) really shows how that looks when you can get the whole thing in frame and you can see the "gap" between the bottom of the funnel picking up debris and the top of the funnel sucking down the clouds with the middle not quite visible yet. There are more factors that go into it the formation that determine things like wind speed, and direction, but those are the basics of it.

That first tornado, in Jonesboro, I was a block away from it when it hit. It was strange, a bright clear day with no sign of rain or storms, and then the alert and sirens came. I thought for sure that it was a mistake or a big test of the system or something, but the alarms seemed genuine. I stepped outside and it was a bright and sunny clear day, but then I could see the large funnel across town with a storm cell on its heels, it seemed to come straight at me as it blew off the roofs of the magic touch cleaners, and then gateway tires company, and proceeded in my general direction. Luckily it drifted in a more easterly direction and missed my location. Unfortunately it hit a Cheddars and then took out our big new mall, which never recovered from the damage.

I live in Western Massachusetts. We rarely have tornadoes. One day however one started at the end of our block went down the street the other way thank goodness and killed a woman and her child who were in the bathtub. That house was totally destroyed. Then it went across that street and killed another woman. It then decided to cross the Connecticut River and took out an 18-wheeler on a bridge. It continued across Western Massachusetts and totally decimated a town not too far from here. They are still rebuilding some areas after 7 years. There is a lot more to this story. What are nearly as scary are called microbursts. When my family lived in Florida, a microburst destroyed my daughter's daycare. Thankfully it was on a Saturday so no children were there. A microburst went over our house, and a tree fell on our car, totalling it. No other damage was reported. Just my car. I was happy as I hated that car and got a nice new one.

I had never been in a tornado until June of 2024 when a tornado hit 15 miles north of Washington, DC

Sometimes parts of the tornado isn't visable, as it comes down out of the sky. Those sections are just as strong as the rest of it, it just doesn't have any debris in that section yet, so it can be clean air being twisted around.

I was in Rosedale mall in the Twin Cities the day a tornado collapsed the roof. I went there to see the opening of the film Camelot. There were 5 or more tornadoes in a row. From the window of the mall, I could see three coming. I showed an usher who immediately told everyone to go to the front of the room where the film would be shown. We all sat on the floor. We heard it hit the mall and because theaters had to meet civil defense standards, the roof on the theater did not collapse. But the rest of the mall did collapse. Someone came in and literally said "Is there a doctor in the house?" We laughed...and there was a doctor. The National Guard came and they had to check all of us to make sure we could track visually. So, more tornado warnings continued on the radio so we decided to try to see Camelot at another theater. Two tornadoes hit but it only damaged cars in the parking lot. At work on Monday, one of my coworkers reported his family came home after a visit in Wisconsin and the welcome mat remained on their stair steps, but the entire house was gone. This is not my scariest tornado experience. I was racing a tornado home, trying to make it home before the road was blocked by threes. I made it home, parked in the garage, ran in the house and started to cry, a tree fell on the house. (No damage) but we had to clear 27 trees from the 3.5 miles to the main road before we could get out. I missed several days of work.

The video that got Elie confirmed as an F5 is absolutely nuts. The fact a tornado that small made a damaging move that powerful is insane.

about two weeks after the Elie tornado there was an incredible hail storm to hit Dauphin, Manitoba and area. There was millions of dollars of damages. Holes in my family's fishing boat, in the roof of the house, the window over my brothers bed shattered. The high rise (tallest building in town) was riddled with holes. We actually made the news for something other than Countryfest! I was at my grandparents farm, no hail but the rain was just a thick wall of water. The clouds were swirling and green. Very scary as a 13 year old.

I remember in 1992, we were doing the build out of the newest Red Robin restaurant, 1st in LV. I grew up in the Mid West(during the summers; I moved to Vegas @ 8 y.o., on 10/31/81- sign of things to come), and I'm on a smokko on the back porch. I look at the cloud, because it was a bit cloudy and windy, with a bit of "piss on your back" sprinkling. I see the clouds, and immediately start betting the kitchen crew, contractors, and management - minus 1, he was from Indiana, that the clouds would go funnel. "No way! Vegas don't get no tornadoes!". I won $ 2700, and saw 3 dudes literally brown their shorts. Touched down in the old McCarran properties, and only hit two houses, but still - in a city that experiences 50 - 80 mph winds, dust storms, and sciroccos, that was a light storm. I've seen dust devils rip roofs and carports off their budgings, and seen resorts lose windows from a "light" dust storm, this made me laugh. As a teen, I'd grab a lawn chair when the tornado horns went off during my summers in Michigan.

Every time you ask "what is that, is that the tornado?" what you're actually seeing is the debris cloud at the very base of it. Tornados are so massive you have to be far away to capture them ground to sky.

Pretty sure the first guy said something in Arabic when you said "that didn't sound American".

I don't speak Arabic, so am not 100% sure if I heard it right.

The Goderich Tornado of August 2011 was the first F3 tornado to hit Ontario, Canada since April 1996. It lasted about 15 minutes, with a total track of 20 km and had peak winds between 253 and 330 km/h which cause about $100 million in damage. We don't generally get ones that powerful. That was about an hour from where I live.

Watch Pecos Hank’s video on the 2013 El Reno tornado. It was the largest tornado ever recorded, being 2.6 MILES wide! It was also the second strongest tornado on record, with wind speeds around 484km/h.

Seen many, been in a few. The storm that made the big one that hit Moore OK, we saw it coming, went in the shelter with all the neighbors. A tornado went through my back yard, took the top out of my tree, jumped over my garage and took all of the neighbors' massive trees. My daughter was supposed to be in Moore that night on a school trip, but it got called off for another reason. I've seen many of them in the clouds, and many have hit close by. It's something that you kind of get used to.

A few years ago, I was home alone with my dog, when 3rd home down the street was ripped apart, I was upstairs when the tornado hit my home directly. As I moved to exit the room, water drops hit my face, from the wind blowing through the door 6 feet away, dog was going crazy, I had trouble breathing as the air suddenly got sucked out of the house. After it was over, I went outside and collapsed on the driveway, neighbor stopped and asked if everyone was ok, yeah, got shook up pretty badly. The trees in my yard slowed down the tornado and when it hit my home, it's already "breezy", to allow air pressure to equalize quickly without damaging the structure. The neighbor's roof ended up wrapped up in the trees behind my house.

'Should they be close to windows?'. No they shouldn't. Even if the tornado is a few streets away, there is debris flying all around. I was in a building close to the path of one once. We went to the basement for a few minute & nothing much happened. A mile & a half later it twisted a high rise so bad it had to be torn down.

Last month the new record tornado hit western Iowa. The town pretty much is all gone at this point. BTW, a tornado is just spinning air. What you see is the debris cloud and the cloud base being pulled down.

We just had an EF 1 tornado last week in Tucson, and it hit at night. A frightening situation, but fortunately we don't have too many of them here because of the mountains surrounding the city.

17:37 - Tornadoes DO occur in Ireland and Britain, but they are usually quite weak. It's very uncommon for strong tornadoes to strike the two islands. Even so, they can happen every once in a while. The most recent significant tornado to hit Britain was the London T5 (F2) tornado of December 7th, 2006 which, while not as strong as the F4 tornado that had struck the city WAY back in 1091 when London was MUCH smaller, is still noticeable. Then there was the Birmingham T5 (F2) tornado that occurred over a year earlier on July 28th, 2005. And that's just in regards to Britain. Then there's Ireland, where tornadoes are even MORE uncommon. Even so, they also occur there. The earliest-known tornado in Ireland having occur on April 30, 1054, in Rostella, near Kilbeggan in central Ireland. Hell, you can type in 'Tornadoes in Ireland', and there's some videos of a village in Ireland having been hit by a tornado on the 10th of December last year. As someone else pointed out in the comments, tornadoes occur almost everywhere on Earth EXCEPT Antarctica (for obvious reasons). North America just gets them the most due to the unique geography, as well as some other factors, such as human-induced activity (like agriculture). So while significant tornadoes may not happen as much outside of North America, it's better to be safe than sorry and take severe weather seriously, even if it doesn't result in a tornado forming.

To quote one of my favorite Universal Studios pre-ride videos: You start believing the twister is not just a weather condition. It takes on a life of its own, becoming an entity.

I almost spit out my drink. I JUST got done watching one of Underworld's most recent vids and didn't notice that's who you were reacting to until I heard his voice lmao. That's funny. But also the I have a friend who used to do storm chasing and I found out about that game a few days ago and sent it her way because I think she'd enjoy it since she can't be in the field anymore (she's caring for her mom who is a delightful lady). Edit: also in case anyone else hasn't said it (I'm trying not to scroll through comments anymore. Cesspool. Everywhere.), but America has sooooo many languages in it from all over the world. People immigrate here all the time, bringing their languages and cultures. In the Missouri one, the guy is essentially praying to God or saying "God is great" or something along those lines. I forget the exact translation, but I've heard it before in Saudi ghost hunting videos several times. A lot more of our population is bilingual or more than two languages than what some of us want to admit (I have no idea why. I think it's a good thing). In videos about the US when you hear people speak not-English, maybe try not to sound quite so rude? Apologies if you didn't mean to come across as such, but it sounded like it to me even if it wasn't likely intended to be. It's like asking why someone who is Cherokee (a Native Tribe), is speaking Cherokee and not English.

If you want some more reccomendations on tornado videos to watch, I would suggest: 1) Daniel Shaw El Reno 2013 He had the closest of close calls from anyone that survived the record 2.6 mile wide tornado. I don't want to spoil it, just type his name, the city & year into the search box. 2) Another great video of his is the 2014 Pilger Nebraska twins. Two large stovepipe tornadoes on the ground close together, it's a rare sight. 3) ABC 33/40 's coverage of the April 27,2011 tornado outbreak. Imagine the tv going to a live weather cam, & spotting a wall cloud that then drops a multi vortex tornado onto Cullman Alabama. They were also live when Tuscaloosa got hit at 5p.m.

Thats the one bad thing about twisters NOT being common in places, folks dont know how quickly they can ruin your day

Like I mentioned in one of your other Tornado videos, the calm before the storm & the eerie yellow hue is terrifying to me. After living through many tornadoes in Middle TN, then moving back to my hometown west of Boston, i was out for lunch with my Daddy & my Daughter who was 2. The sky turned yellow & i began to panic. My Daddy kept telling me it wasn't a tornado & we were safe. Thankfully it wasn't, though we have had a few in Massachusetts

We've had a few. Nothing substantial . Nova Scotia has nine tornado touchdowns on record. The EF1 tornado that touched down in Stewiacke on June 30, 2021, was the first confirmed tornado in the province in two decades. It was on the ground for more than 600 meters, destroying a barn. A few weeks later, another EF0 tornado was spotted in Antrim.

The odd thing about a tornado is that you can see it in the sky and on the ground, but until debris is kicked up the portion between the top and bottom isn't always visible. . I have watched a good number of tornadoes videoed by storm chasers, some of them seem to be exhilarated and yell and scream and some times act stupid. I don't l care for that type. The people I watch are the smarter, more cautious ones who respect the storm, its beauty and what it can do, but watch the storms progress and get out of the way when they get too close. I don't appreciate the ones who seem to be ignoring the fact that someone's home or life is being destroyed.

I was in a tornado when I renting a house with my buddies in Iowa. I had just got back from picking up a keg and we sat out on the porch watching the strom while drunk before it hit lol. It happened at night so we had to wait for lighting flashes to see where it was headed.

A recent tornado just a couple of hours drive west of me just recently broke the record (or came close, i've seen different numbers) for wind speeds. 318 mph peak wind speeds, I can't even imagine that. And I lived through the 2020 Iowa Derecho, even the worst of that storm wasn't even half that speed. look that storm up if you want to see some crazy footage.

Tornados is wind, If you want to understand why when they start looking like the ground up, the color of the tornado comes from what it picks up. That is why sometimes it looks like its top down because its showing the rain. Other times it looks like ground up because its grabbing the dust pulling it up.

Been in a few, living in Indiana. The scary thing for me is that they're invisible until they pick up debris and pull down the clouds. This is the first video I've seen that shows you can't see wind, only what it carries.

You can't always just get up and leave during a tornado warning. Our last tornado warning a couple months ago did not come until the tornado was on us already. Leaving can be more dangerous than staying in most situations. Especially at night. You can't see where a tornado is when its dark out unless lightning strikes near it, illuminating it for a brief moment

Had to finally subscribe bro, I found myself binging your reactions, subscribe was deserved. Hats off you you my friend.

Yes, Adam. Think of those pieces of tornado shrapnel slicing through the air!😮

You want to see a tornado, check out the December 11th 2021 tornado that hit Mayfield Kentucky. EF4 tornado that traveled 165 miles! This thing was massive and pretty much took out all of Mayfield and Dawson Springs. Worst part is there was not really any warning and was devastating

I second on that or el Reno tornado. I live in Kentucky and the mayfield tornado was probably the worst we had and it was at night , the fact that Kentucky has the most nocturnal tornados . Was massive and destroyed an entire candle factory and killed a couple of people and entrapped many. then the el Reno tornado was probably one of the most biggest and violent tornado it would’ve been an ef5 if it hit towns but it didn’t it was mostly in farm land and it took a couple storm chasers..sadly

I have footage on my phone from that Madill, Oklahoma tornado. I was storm chasing that day, we were about 2 miles south of it when it went through town, my chase group were the first people to call the national weather service and confirm the tornado being on the ground

Tornado wind speeds are just educated estimates unless confirmed by weather instruments. To date, the highest recorded tornadic wind gust (and the highest recorded wind on Earth) occurred just a few short weeks ago, with the May 2024 Greenfield, Iowa tornado. Peak winds were measured by the University of Iowa's mobile doppler radar at 309 mph (497 km/h), with a margin of error of about 5 mph. This means they could have been as high as 313 mph (503 km/h). With that being said, the Elie tornado was given an F5 rating after someone recording it sent Canada's weather service their video of it lofting an entire house whole, and then disintegrating it within the vortex.

"is this line the border?" "Ohhh" "Ohhhhhh"😆 Oh Adam. Cracking me up all the time bro.

General rule of thumb for tornado safety: If it looks like it isn't moving, it's coming straight at you and you better move or get down and pray

When you see a tornado - if it doesn’t look like it’s moving at all and just staying still, that’s when you need to leave immediately. When it looks like it’s just staying in 1 spot, it’s actually coming straight at you, which is why it doesn’t look like there’s any movement.

Was there for May 3, 1999. I watched a tree 4ft in diameter lift straight up and straight back down as the tornado tried to pull it up by the roots. I will not life in a house without a shelter.

I was living on the Military Base, CFB Borden, which is literally connected to Angus, Ontario. I walked outside to have a smoke, put the cigarette in my mouth, pulled my lighter up to lite it, saw the tornado and said “Yeah, Nah, not today” About faced and went inside lol

I've been in quite a few tornadoes. As a Midwesterner, we like to sit outside and watch them when they occur. :D

The guy in Arkansas was praying. I recognized the ‘Bismillah’ as part of the prayer in Muslim faith.

2:46 as an American: the tornado is moving away from the shop, which is probably why he came out near the windows. Tornados can zag or change directions, but tend to generally keep going in one main direction. However, flying debris could still be sent through the window so it’s better to wait until you’re clear of the strong winds.

The worst part about it is you have to prove to the insurance company that your house got destroyed by a tornado.

Hey Adam, my names Ashton, I’m a storm chaser from Oklahoma. I love your reactions to weather related videos. I would absolutely love to take you storm chasing when you come out to the U.S. next year. If you’d be willing that is. It’d be an incredible experience. We can get in contact further.

I too enjoy long walks on the beach and 80's music 😂 Hope you're feeling a bit better today.

As someone that’s experienced three tornadoes I live in the state of Indiana and we had one recently. It was an F3. It sounds like a freight train or jet like next to your ear

Great reaction Adam

I've been in 3 tornados. Once when i was 23 i was in my car and it was rain wrapped. The only nightmares I had as a kid, tornadoes. I have PTSD about everything tornadoes, as you can see

I've been through 2 tornadoes. 1 in FT Smith Arkansas where it destroyed both houses on each side if me. It skipped my house. 1 in Joplin Missouri where my house was totally destroyed.

Dude; look up the El Reno/Moore Oklahoma tornado in 2017 if you wanna throw up. It’s the largest tornado ever recorded and got up to 2.6 MILES wide! I BBQ’d for victims, 1st responders and volunteers for 5 days following the storm. Only reason I didn’t stay longer is I ran out of vacation time (PTO).

Actually lying down as flat as you can on your stomach is probably the best position you can be in with your arms and hands covering your head. That's probably the safest you can be if there are no ditches, storm cellars, in ground swimming pools to jump into.

LOL.......Adam is too funny. I like how he intentionally mispronounces the word "game" as "geem". hehehe

You don't understand how accents work, do you?

Adam, I’m from the Jonesboro Arkansas area and was watching it live on tv. Jonesboro is a very diverse city with many different nationalities, so you’ll hear many different languages

Oh yeah, i remember the tornado that ripped through Jonesboro. Luckily I was a few miles out of the path so my place remained undamaged for the most part but it's true, midday on a Saturday on any normal weekend that mall would have been full of people and the tornado ripped clean through a huge section. A big reason there were no fatalities at all was because of the Covid19 restrictions which believe me folks in town were not quick to adopt to

I once was caught in a warehouse in Oklahoma working while a f4 came through. Couldn't see anything happening because of no windows. Which was probably a good thing. All we had was the weather radio telling in how close it passed us. Less than three miles.

We that live in the area of tornado alley,carry insurance for full replacement value of our homes and property.The discovery channel had a program called storm chasers that can give you an idea of what it is like to be up close to them.These shows are available on KZread.

The UK gets between 30-50 tornadoes each year and Ireland gets around 10 each year.

You should check out some of the videos of tornadoes with multiple vortexes and tornadoes that turn counter clock wise ! They are rare and interesting !!

I live an hour north from New York City so we have gotten tornadoes but not many at all & I haven’t seen any in my 30 years but I was always told that if I ever was to see one in front of me, that I was safe as long as I could see if moving across the ground however if the tornado looked to be standing still & not moving or not spinning that that’s when it was coming right at at me. So your safe as long as you’re a safe distance away & you can see it moving to the side but tornadoes don’t just sit in one spot or stand still so if it looks as if it’s not moving, that’s when you’re in trouble & either admit defeat depending on how far away it is or run like a MF’er & Pray 🙏🏽🌪️😫

Number 2 reminds me of "Its not that the wind is blowin, it's WHAT the wind is blowin." 😅😂😂

Ontario Canada is like a mini tornado alley. They get around 13 tornadoes a year. I have fain ottawa and there were 3 or 4 last year

Had a tornado travel over my house just last month. Destroyed my shade trees and my roof. Everyone was okay, but it was touch and go for a bit. I live in Oklahoma. That was the first tornado I've ever had any damage from.

Yes, we get plenty of tornados in the UK. Theyre just very weak compared to those in the USA. On the EF scale, British tornados are overwhelmingly EF 0- EF1. And EF2 or EF3 is very rare and considered a very significant tornado for us.

These were pretty tame tornadoes. I watch one go by my house that was as big as most of these, in Utah. Still fun to watch.

If it looks like it’s not moving, it’s coming toward you.

Please react to the (paramedic force 5 bridge creek and moore, Oklahoma tornado May 3 1999). It's the first responders response to the 1999 moore, Oklahoma F5 tornando. I currently work as an EMT with EMSA in tulsa, Oklahoma. We use this video for training new hires on mass casualty response. The camera crews riding with these ambulance crews were making a Tv show on the day and life of first responders the day moore got hit. Most people have no idea what happen in the aftermath of a tornado. This video is a great watch to understand what it takes to triage a mass casualty incident.

ive watched a few of your videos man, and im hooked lol love the content! new subscriber here

Your Canadian accent is actually really good 😂

17:37 You don't hear of them because tornados are pretty rare in the UK, and the few you do get tend to be weak. You had a tornado in N. Ireland and another in London, 2006.

That's so crazy watching number 1 because I was at a friend's house in the 8th grade when the hail hit in crosbyton 😅
