Second only to Pecos Hank. And he is a well-known tornado chase celebrity. That was extraordinary "playing chicken". I truly did not expect you to stay in place for that outbuilding to disappear into the advancing rotation. And then to see all of its disintegrated pieces whirling around. I was like whoa! Not only is this an awesome video of its own, but it is the very first video from this outbreak that is filmed in 2160p. Somebody wrote earlier "instant classic". This is truly amazing. You were so fortunate to be positioned where you could make a quick getaway. And even then for a few moments, I was like, "Oh oh, can he get away from this?" And as others here in the commentary have noted before me, the video is silent of commentary, stable, calm and unbroken. Only the sounds of nature can be heard as the roar gets closer and closer. A new benchmark of tornado imaging. A tour de force of chasing footage by which all other tornado chase footage, going forward should be measured. Even Pecos Hank!

Details that are lost when people move the camera around constantly.

I have lived in north central Iowa my whole life and have seen a lot of tornadoes (the '76 Jordan tornado was the worst). This one is truly a sight to see! If you are able to get close enough for audio, the sound is absolutely terrifying! It makes you realize the extent of power that sucker has (like a massive freight train coming at you)! I drove along beside a tornado once going in the opposite direction, after it swiped my wipers, side mirror, and hub cap I decided to hit the gas pedal!! Thanks for your mutual love of storms/tornadoes. Extreme weather is a reality and every year gets crazier! : } *** interesting info about the Jordan tornado as reported by the NWS "The tornado destroyed virtually every house and business building in the community, but all residents survived. The tornado was accompanied by an F-3 anticyclonic tornado two miles to the southeast. One unusual aspect of the F5 cyclonic tornado and F3 anticyclone tornado was the simultaneous right turn made by each.[7] Dr. Ted Fujita, the originator of the Fujita tornado intensity scale, said the tornado which hit Jordan was one of the most intense and destructive he had ever studied"

I have been caught in 2 tornadoes and I can tell you for a fact they do not sound like a train or a lion roaring. It's different. It's like sand being whipped around in a bottle on a majestic scale.

You're right! It's definitely unbelievable! You being parked & allowing us to just watch this form is amazing, Ty! It's unreal for it to be 1 dangerous tornado, then it growing so large & watching all of those twisters inside it reaching out destroying things, then getting sucked back in, gaining more energy & expanding back out to destroy again, this vid sure gives me a better understanding as to how these tornadoes can leave behind such a wide & long path of destruction 🤔 It's like 20 tornadoes in 1😳😲

I find tornados mesmerizing. I have seen 3 in my life. All were at the smallest rating of F1. But fascinating to see. 2 were very up close as they passed in the field behind my house and one in between mine and my neighbors. I stood on the front porch and watch it churn up the soy beans in the field then whirl between the houses as it picked up their swingset and tossed it into the power lines killing the electricity. And just as quickly it was across the street in the next field tossing beans around.

Incredible! Thank you and good luck this season
