They make ground anchors for off road vehicles that can take a lot of pull before breaking loose but getting them firmly planted in the earth is no easy feat. Some sort of explosive deployed ground anchors might be feasible but they’d likely be pretty dangerous to use, especially on a harder or rocky surface. It’d be better than getting tossed around in a tornado though. 🌬
Man Reed is one of those people I wish had the biggest success and to have a tornado show with 20 seasons lol his streams are great and he does a good job chasing, getting footage, and letting viewers know where the danger is and when.
And the best part is that he doesn't conduct himself as a holier than thou PhD holding scientist working in the field ... he's just Reed. He's just a guy with a passion for weather and it shows though his work.
Reed is better off with no show on cable tv. He makes way more money with his personally produced media. Just watch the 100s of thousands of dollars worth of Superchats and subscriptions/memberships he gets on a single stormchasing outing. He's making a ton of money.
brian said on stream that they were thinken about that, but they want it to be big so they would raise a fund so they can use all the best equipment to hunt tornado's and capture it in even higher quality and angles. He said that in last stream so about 2 days ago
@@marvindebot3264 I mean, knowing Elon, he probably just wanted to show off his cool new toy to Jay Leno. I think he'd do that even without the cameras. The publicity is just a nice added rationale for spending his time that way. If I had to guess, I'd say he'd probably prefer the youtube version to the mainstream TV version as well, but I don't think he cares very much about where it got posted.
4:30 - literally the only reason this car had any issue is because it wasn't in park and the hood wasn't latched. Wind speed 57mph and the hood is shaking to come open? Lol, cars regularly drive 60+mph with no issue.
dosent mean that the wind speed is 60 mph. iv'e herd some where that its is like 20 or 30 mph (wind speeds) ill try to find the source of it then link it for you.
Vuke Vinch if there is no wind at all and you are travelling at 60mph the force of the car hitting the wind is 60mph, if the wind is coming towards you it’ll be more or if it’s going in the same direction of you it’ll be less
The Russians have these. They are pairs of jet engines mounted on modified battle tank hulls. They use them to fight forrest fires or other special situations
Actually, Sean Casey built the first vehicle for surviving tornado encounters. He called it the TIV...Tornado Intercept Vehicle, he built it for capturing IMAX footage for his movie ‘Tornado Alley’. I admire Reed immensely, but Sean gets the credit for the genesis of the Dominator.
Sean doesn't get credit for anything- the only similarities between the vehicles are the fact that they're aerodynamically armored and engineered to be resistant against Tornadic-winds- how they accomplish said design and how they function is completely different.
I am currently watching Storm Chasers on Prime. While I'm sure Reed has had the ambition to intercept and I respect him for what he does. It's clear he copied TIV and TIV II with the design of all three Dominator designs. I giggle every time Sean calls DOM 1 " THE RED SHOE " lol...
@@WeatherxCalipha C.T, you don't understand why Sean deserves credit. Sean deserves credit because he created the idea of an armored vehicle, and inspired many to follow in his footsteps. They may be for different purposes, but Sean had laid the foundation for many chasers, and he did it because he wanted to do it. Good day to you sir.
What an amazing career this man made for himself. He just gets to be a little boy forever playing with his toys and loving what he's doing. I'm so jealous. He gets to tinker, improve meteorology and get heavy adrenaline rushes.
correction, Sum Dum Gai, he did not say "Pa". what Reed said then was "Paul", referring to Paul Samaras, from the TWISTEX storm chasing team. him, his dad Tim Samaras, and another chaser, all died in the EL RENO tornado of 2013.
After last week I expect to see the Bugatti posted at least 2 more times. Dont know what that was all about but Jay is doing a great job showing cars all on his own
Jay needs to go on a chase with Reed sometime! I'm terrified of tornados but still watch him. Yesterday he had a busy day in Iowa with a tornado with multiple vortex's! I'd have a heart attack out there but my son wants to go on a chase with Reed! God Bless and stay safe.

I do some storm spotting once in a while in Northeastern Oklahoma. I was following a supercell and saw one of those things at a traffic light in a small town in along major highway. It's like nothing you've ever seen before. It made me stop and think, do I really want to keep following this storm?

f-350 turned in to a mobile bunker and observation station. This is the best design we have seen from him yet. Almost ALMOST looks more legit then TIV.... but TIV will always have a special place in my heart because they were crazy enough to start the trend.... build a mobile bunker, mount a imax camera in it. get hit by a tornado. i ll stick with my day job.

Wow..Reed Timmers Dominator on Jay Leno's Garage. This deserves the recognition no doubt. Such an impressive vehicle and Team! I wish that i could ride along sometime. Ill sign anything that you want me to. 😆😆😆
Mythbusters did the same experiment with TIV 2 and Dominator 2 they put them behind a jet and launched things at them. The test always begins with a junked car to prove what will happen if you are in these types of winds. TIV 1 and 2 have been put through their paces so has Dominator 1 and 2 now it is Dominator 3s turn and it passed this vehicle is ready for storm season.
I thought this would be dumb but that's a pretty clever testing technique. I wonder if it would do as well from the side though. Pointing directly up-wind is ideal but who knows which way the wind may blow.
The problem with using the jet isn't the speed of the wind, it's the heat of the engine, at the tail pipe it's about 1300 F and where the Dominator was would be around 500 F, but the oxygen was because of the exhaust gases from the engine.
Tiv2 has multilayer,more fame, older, 0/250, or even 275, more intercepts, spikes go 5 to 6 deep underground, can stand 250 mph (when tivs side is facing twards wind so it doesnt topple) ,and dominator 3 cant go to 250 mph, it goes at 200 to 220, and tiv 2 takes about 20 to 30 seconds to deploy, but its made for when the tornado comes to them, which means it has a very big chance of surviving 300 MPH, And yes it does have 4wd, and has better readings because Tiv2 is built for intense tornadoes, and dom 3 is mostly made for photographs, Overall Tiv2 will definitely win.
Good to see Reed Timmer is still chasing tornadoes. I forgot all about him since his tv show ended in 2011. Also nice to hear his vehicles are still called "Dominator" and bad storms that are experienced inside the Dominator are "intense". Lol.

This was a hoot to watch! Jay , you are so funny ! Glad you're feeling better too! As I also saw the interview you did with Gayle King. Seriously, you look fantastic! Yay God! 🙏 This video came up in my feed just now. Dr Reed is down South. Been watching he and Ryan Hall quite a bit today. I'm kinda of a newbie. The Dominators are supposed to be road ready by spring, I've heard. Beastly looking things huh ? Like Sci Fi! 😂🤭 I didn't realize that you had a channel here. Nice to know. Brightest Blessings to You and Your Family this Holiday Season! ☺️✌️❤️🦋🙏
Im very glad Jay burn was healed as well as it did, That os so horrible of injury. Nice of you to mention that his condition looks better, I think we ALL are glad he recovered ok.
Pure Hollywood. Great fun. Storm chaser wanted O’s...the retired comedian in the biker jacket could’ve cared less. I don’t know what was better about the runway joke...the fact that they didn’t damage it, or the fact that the section they were parked on was already heavily damaged😂 so much fun! Thank you!

2:55 I like the tribute made to the Twistex team. We will always remember them
For those who do not know, they also tested one of the dominators and the TIV on mythbusters years ago. They held up, but forgot to latch the door.
I think it was the first dominator (red shoe) vs tiv 2, Dominator did get pushed down the grass at 300mph but didnt flip. tiv2 forgot to latch one of the doors and it blew open
Dominator 1 didn’t have the spikes, so it was pushed back, skidding flat to the ground. The risk was in if it would flip up.
I remember that. Reed was so embarrassed!
They successfully sat through a gnarly F3 tornado, it hit them dead on.
Sean Casey is the original. the tiv was created for filming a tornado in imax.Reed probably is the best hunter, but I can't stand him
Jay: You can't fake a tornado
Also Jay: Fakes a tornado
Top gear did it first, and better
The winds in a tornado scoop you up instead
@elewis6622 Mythbusters did it with the Storm Chasers, and it was almost as good as the Top Gear one.
I flew reed to Rochester the night the Buffalo snow storm was starting. All buffalo flights were cancelled. Reed got off the plane and rented a car and immediately drove to buffalo live-streaming all night lol.
That stream was legendary. The streets of Buffalo looked like an apocalypse.
Woe winter didn't pan out
I wanted to see the damage the spikes do on the road or how deep they go.... Sadly, I was disappointed
If we didnt see it, it didnt happen, thats how the media works.
Probably just tiny holes, like from a 4" nail. Good for nothing
He was bullshitting just to play it up.
They make ground anchors for off road vehicles that can take a lot of pull before breaking loose but getting them firmly planted in the earth is no easy feat. Some sort of explosive deployed ground anchors might be feasible but they’d likely be pretty dangerous to use, especially on a harder or rocky surface. It’d be better than getting tossed around in a tornado though. 🌬
Doesn’t matter if they did. They sell asphalt mix in bags at the local hardware store to repair potholes.
The "poor, unsuspecting old beater" is nicer than my daily.
That poor ford 500.. lmao
Everyone gangsta till you see the Dominator coming down your street during a thunderstorm

Great, looking forward to another TV series where Reed Timmer screams like a little girl through the whole thing.
This was a hoot to watch! Jay , you are so funny ! Glad you're feeling better too! As I also saw the interview you did with Gayle King. Seriously, you look fantastic! Yay God! 🙏 This video came up in my feed just now. Dr Reed is down South. Been watching he and Ryan Hall quite a bit today. I'm kinda of a newbie. The Dominators are supposed to be road ready by spring, I've heard. Beastly looking things huh ? Like Sci Fi! 😂🤭 I didn't realize that you had a channel here. Nice to know.
Brightest Blessings to You and Your Family this Holiday Season! ☺️✌️❤️🦋🙏
Im very glad Jay burn was healed as well as it did, That os so horrible of injury. Nice of you to mention that his condition looks better, I think we ALL are glad he recovered ok.
OK, this is one of the better ones...
I had my back broken in a tornado 9/10/99 you are nucking fruts to get anywhere with in a mile of one.
The truck did more dominating in this parking lot than it’s ever done in real life
Pure Hollywood. Great fun. Storm chaser wanted O’s...the retired comedian in the biker jacket could’ve cared less. I don’t know what was better about the runway joke...the fact that they didn’t damage it, or the fact that the section they were parked on was already heavily damaged😂 so much fun! Thank you!
Has cupholders.
Dominator -1 Lexus LFA - 0... ?
Cupholders are necessary to dominate. One needs to sip coffee/soda/tea while in the middle of tornadic activity.
The anchor system is genius
Covid permitting, you should do a 'making of' Video some time. And let us Foreigners see more of that lovely Countryside you drive around. Great entertainment.
I like your new 2020 episodes much better 😎
