  • Here is a 34 minute compilation of my best and favorite tornado video since 2008 when I switched to HD video. I've seen many other tornadoes, but these are highlights of my most successful tornado intercepts. They are in chronological order. States include Oklahoma, Kansas, South dakota and Virginia. Make sure the video is on HD. It's best on a larger screen. I initially planned to have music in the background, but later decided to keep the natural sound. I made these highlights since I won't be out chasing across the Plains in 2020. I hope to be back in 2021 when the national situation improves. I've chased every year from 1997 to 2019 except for 1999. Tornado video is available for licensing. See my website www.harkphoto.com I rarely look at messages sent through RUclips.

    exceptional footage! That is really rare and valuable not to have anyone yell "HUGE VIOLENT TORNADO" permanently, but actually have it's natural sound on camera. Absolutely phenomenal footage!

    Most people probably missed this because they'll stare at the vortex itself instead of the periphery, but look at how quickly and relatively easy the earliest winds of this vortex took down that giant, heavy-duty metal power line just to the right of the wooden telephone pole at 5:18-5:19. And this wasn't even THE most powerful of the winds connected with this tornado, at the center of the vortex you've got the extreme rotary winds at the CORE of it! At this stage of it's life, if memory serves me correctly, this was rated an EF-4. This has the ability to easily pick up and LAUNCH CARS quite a distance. Sitting in front of a computer and watching a beast like this absolutely does not capture a fraction of the mind-blowing experience one gets when faced with one of these monsters in real life....the sight of what's happening as well as the sound generated by extremes in wind and internal debris colliding within is something one never forgets as long as one lives.

      Those were intense winds. Many people don't realize the winds extend well past the vortex. That was an amazing tornado.

    I really hope you or someone out there can doo this. I know this may sound crazy, but it's not. You've got a blind audience, and it'd be really nice if you'd time stamp each tornado video footage. This way, I can listen to each spot and remember what I was doing or what was going on during that day. It's one way I associate a "movie of the mind" or audio in this case with that day as I lived it or in relation to what I experienced that day. There's really a method to my "madness", no really. Thank you very much, and I hope everyone's well and staying well in mind, body and soul during this crazy time. Be blessed!

      @@danaus Yes indeed. Thank you so much. So far, it reads text and some emojis. We're making progress with picture identification, but it has to be scripted into the software, and it's a painstaking and slow process as well as progress. If you're interested in learning more about it, go to freedom scientific dot com, and search for "Jaws", and you can download a 40-minute version. I believe you might even be able to obtain a free 90-day or 6-month license for use as a developer or for educational use. I'm not sure about all the details, but the 40-minute version can be used as many times as you need it. I'm afraid you'll only have access to the Eloquence voices which are electronic, but Narrator by Microsoft is always available on any Windows operating system. It's free and can be accessed. by searching for it. Once you do, just toggle it "on", and check it out. This should give you some really good screen-reader apps. Enjoy!

    حقيقة اعصار التورنادوا :
    هو في الاساس رباني ومن غضب الله الجبار
    ومن شدته انه اذا مر على نهر شقه نصفين ورفع قاعه الطيني وذر ترابه في الهواء
    وكذلك يقتلع البنايات والبيوت والاشجار ومن ثم رميها في مكان بعيد مهما كانت ثقيلة وعظيمة
    ويحمل الجسور والقناطر والخزانات الكبيرة ويدور بها وكانها عود ثقاب ويلفها كالمروحة من شدة قوته العنيفة
    ويحمل معه الحيوان والانسان الى عنان السماء ثم يلفظه خارج الغلاف الجوي او الكرة الارضية وكانها عملية تفريغ نحو الفضاء الخارجي
    مما يتسبب بخسائر مادية جسيمة وهائلة تقدر بمئات المليارات من الدولارات
    وهذا غيظ من فيض وهذا بعض ما يجري في امريكا
    ان الذين كذبوا باياتنا واستكبروا عنها لا تفتح لهم ابواب السماء ولا يدخلون الجنة حتى يلج الجمل في سم الخياط ...
    اوكل الله جل في علاه بكل شئ ملكا :
    فهناك ملك الجبال وملك البحار وملك السحاب وملك الرياح وباستطاعته ان يامرها بما يريد
    ان زلزلوا او احرقوا او دمروا او حطموا او اغرقوا
    فينتقم الله ممن يشاء ولا يستطيع اي مخلوق في هذا الكون منع قضاءه جل وعلا
    ويقال ان صوت الرعد حسبما ورد في الاثر
    انه صوت الملك الذي يزجر به السحاب ويسوقه حيث يشاء بامر الله عز وجل ... والله اعلم
    قال تعالى ( وما تاتيهم من آية من آيات ربهم الا كانوا عنها معرضين )
    وقال تعالى ( فأرسلنا عليهم الطوفان والجراد والقمل والضفادع والدم ... )
    وقال تعالى ( وان يروا كسفا من السماء ساقطا يقولوا سحاب مركوم )
    وقال تعالى ( فلما راوه عارضا مستقبل اوديتهم قالوا هذا عارض ممطرنا بل هو مااستعجلتم به ريح فيها عذاب اليم )
    وقال تعالى ( ولو شئنا لرفعناه بها ولكنه أخلد إلى الأرض واتبع هواه فمثله كمثل الكلب إن تحمل عليه يلهث أو تتركه يلهث ذلك مثل القوم الذين كذبوا بآياتنا فاقصص القصص لعلهم يتفكرون )
    وقال تعالى ( مثل الذين حملوا التوراة ثم لم يحملوها كمثل الحمار يحمل اسفارا بئس
    مثل القوم الذين كذبوا بآيات الله والله لا يهدي القوم الظالمين )
    وقال تعالى ( قل ياأهل الكتاب لستم على شيء حتى تقيموا التوراة والإنجيل وما أنزل إليكم من ربكم وليزيدن كثيرا منهم ما أنزل إليك من ربك طغيانا وكفرا فلا تأس على القوم الكافرين )
    وهذا ما سيحدث لامريكا كثيرا وستدفع الثمن باهضا
    كل شئ انتهى ولا يستطيعون فعل اي شئ
    اللهم عليك بهم فانهم لا يعجزونك
