Correction about the Jarrell 1997 Dead Man Walking tornado. Swegle discovered that the picture was one of a series taken by a local resident on a digital still camera and was later mislabeled as coming from a video.
Yep. The photo was taken by Scott Beckwith, who was a worker at Jarrell Farm Supply. The company has since gone out of business and the building was demolished shortly after.
@@deathbloom27 Multiple-vortex tornado is a very tricky term, since literally _every_ tornado can be classified as one since all tornadoes have all sorts of disorganized little vortices and helicity rotating within the mesocyclone's main circulation. You can always see those little vortices whipping up on the ground right before a tornado's main funnel touches down if you're (dangerously) close enough. A _true_ *Multiple-Vortex Tornado* is when a tornado undergoes something called "vortex breakdown", when specific mathematic conditions in vortex dynamics are met.. causing the main funnel to split into MULTIPLE. If you look around there's videos of a fog machine lab model created by Neil B. Ward (famous meteorologist) that perfectly demonstrates how multiple-vortex tornadoes happen.
You are wrong as if they were made from the same supercell they would have to be within a 90 yard radius thus the one in Pilger was from separate super cells
One interesting thing about wedge tornadoes is that they seem slow due to their immense size, so they don't seem too dangerous from a distance until one realizes how fast it is actually moving. The famous Joplin tornado moved and evolved faster than the broadcasters anticipated, the video of the broadcast from the weather station is kinda creepy because at first they were casual about it until the tower camera moved to see the tornado properly, the footage freezes for a minute, and then continues to a panicked broadcast to make people stay indoors. Wedge tornadoes cause so much damage not because of the wind speed, but for how prolonged structures and vehicles are subjected to such wind speeds and just how wide they are. Drill tornadoes can be strong but a lot of the time they wander around, miss structures, maybe tear up a shed or ruin farmland, and dissipate. Wedge tornadoes are like mini-hurricanes, they are so wide that it's almost impossible for one to miss, and while they move fast their incredible size makes structures stay under tornadic winds for much longer, thus sweeping them completely off the foundation a lot of the time. There was even a time where a wedge tornado picked up some dirt and sand-blasted a structure so badly that almost nothing was left, and slowed down to prolong the exposure to winds and sand-blasting of everything. Also a lot of the time they are rain-wrapped or are a lot darker because they absorb more sunlight so they look freakier when in fact it's just an obese version of other tornadoes.
Greenfield was also dead man walking type at early stages. There are a few photos of it on X with clearly visible ,,legs" and even videos on RUclips. Besides, in my opinion it shouldnt be a separate type. Its just Multi-Vortex.
YESSSSS SOMEONE FINALLY MENTIONED TJE TORNADO I WAS APART OF!!! I WAS IN THE 2015 ROWLETT TORNADO AND THE TORNADO LITERALLY PASSED RIGJT BY MY HOUSE, I remember hearing like a train passing by my house and stuff hitting our house but thank Jesus me and my family was safe. I was only 5 at the time but I still remember it. Also it completely wiped out my church and little me was mad about that but the cross was still intact with not a single scratch on it.(but the whole building was gone). Also I don’t wanna be that guy but it’s pronounced (rau-let)
Yeah, I did goof up on the pronunciation. I tried finding a few videos of Rowlett to see how it is pronounced but every video had different ways of pronouncing it.
The Rowlett one was one of the most frightening not only because it was at night, but the time of the year. You don’t expect tornados in the dead of winter, but Texas is like that. I have heard Rowlett pronounced several ways as well.
Both of those tornadoes didn’t move at 94mph, one did when it was in its rope phase. Two ef4’s barreling at 94mph would be terrible and likely impossible. What even more impressive is the speed of some subvortices within wedge tornadoes. In El Reno they estimated one to have a ground speed of 175mph.
Great video but you forgot one of the most dangerous types of a tornado which arguably is just as dangerous as a nocturnal tornado . The rain wrapped tornado (you could say a rain wrapped nocturnal tornado is the most dangerous form of a tornado)
Yes you are right. In 2020 march 3rd Cookeville Tennessee, a e. F.4 tornado hit at night , killing 19 😢 wounding many people. Tornado warning are a life saver.
I Like how you put an examples tornadoes but in the stove pipe i would choose the absolutely photogenic EF-2 Tornado in Dodge City on May 24, 2016. All after that is an perfect video explaining different appeareance and types of tornadoes. You definetely need more recognition, Greetings from Brazil!💚💛💙🤍!
UPDATE AS OF 09/14/2024: I was wrong all along; the real criteria are as follows: Dead-man walking: A: It should appear to be walking B: It has to at least have 1 fatality C: It has to be one tornado that is a multi-vortex, not 2 separate tornadoes *Original source:* ruclips.net/video/pvg-JQwnqXA/видео.html *Original comment below* To be considered a dead-man walking tornado, it also requires more than the shape of the tornado. It must also be a high-end tornado of at least EF3 intensity, and it must, unfortunately, claim a life. Those are the lesser-known criteria that are rather grim and disturbing. I personally think Joplin's dead-man walking pose is the most horrifying. It was so quick and faint, like a ghost preparing to let all hell break loose. It's a grim reminder of the impact the worst tornadoes have on communities and to ultimately pay respect to the victims of these tornadoes.
There are rumors that the dead man walking isn't even a native American legend but it was made up by the documentary, since all the mention on the Internet uses the docu as the source
Nah, I believe it is a Native American legend. It honestly would make sense because a lot of Native American gods/legends stem from natural occurrences that couldn't be explained at the time. I honestly believe that there is a legend about tornadoes, especially deadly ones. Plus, there were tons of different tribes that have died off either from settlers or from rival tribes that probably had their own legend about tornadoes.
8:36 also its not a footage of satelite. Its Pilager EF4 at the end of its life. Bigger one is Wakefield EF4. Pacos Hank has very good video about this event.
@@chrisuuu393 I mean that is a Satellite tornado. The 1999 Bridge Creek-Moore tornado had a satellite tornado about the same distance as the tornado at 8:36
@@TornadoWX The footage at 8:36 shows the twin that hit Pilger, NE, getting pulled into the wakefield tornado, which formed AFTER the Pilger twin did.
@@TornadoWX no it isnt. ,,A satellite tornado is a tornado that revolves around a larger, primary tornado and interacts with the same mesocyclone." This is a Pilager EF4 at the end of its life. It had already been on the ground for about 20 miles and had caused EF4 damage. How tornado that formed first can be a satellite to tornado that formed much later? As it weakened, it was simply pulled into new tornado that had formed (Wakefield EF4). Just watch Pecos Hank's video about it and admit your mistake... Everyone makes mistakes and film is generally good so its not a shame.
You chose an interesting way to relate to us what cone tornadoes resemble. Kudos on the ice cream cone descriptor. I would have gone with "The Wizard of Oz" reference and described it as a conical shaped muslin stocking.
another good example of a Tornadic Waterspout was the May 10th Southern Bunbury tornado in Western Australia. Unlike most Tornadic Waterspouts, this one actually made landfall, and it was also sidewinding. It caused EF1 damage to homes and trees, and caused EF2 damage to an event centre where it injured 2 people.
I’m so happy Edmonton (ed-mun-ton) is getting its tornado recognized (but it’s never pronounced right) it’s Canadas second deadliest tornado on record and had killed 27 people!
Since my channel's design is based around the 90's Weather Channel, I figured. Might as well use the old jazz / upbeat music they would use for their radar segments. I am going to have to find some more because I have quite a few that just don't ever get used.
I think after this season we could argue that events like the hawk springs event was a hybrid land spout-supercell tornado. Was one of the coolest interactions ever but it’s only “technically” a different type structure wise it was a rope/drillbit.
Imo I view wedge tornadoes as a big tor in the sidewinder position, and why did I say "sidewinder position" is because I view sidewinders as a position type thing, because about any tor type can be a "sidewinder" a rope, drill bit, elephant trunk, wedges, and probably more. look below "sidewinder tornado" | \ / or | the two points of these "tornadoes" are different, which gives it the sidewinder shape, so I view sidewinders as a position of two points(or more) of a tornado, that is different is from each other, usually one part being straight and one part being tilted, now let's view wedge tornadoes Wedge tor \ / - my view of a big cone but I don't view that as a wedge tornado, I view it as a big cone tor this is how I view wedges | / |||||||| \ | because it is... a wedge, not that wedge, the other wedge, the SHAPE, I view wedges as a vertical tilted wedge shape but a lil big wider, big guess WHAT"S also in the "wedge" shape vertical position... yes you guessed right(or not) SIDEWINDERS, so that's why I view wedge's as a Side winder wedge shape -- ------ \ (best way I can show it) vertical wedge shape -- | | weird that a Side winder has a shape of a wedge, but smaller, so.... | / now let's expand the wedge shape | | | | -- Rochelle tor reference | / | /
Minor correction! Twins touch down at the same time from the same supercell AND if one of them is weaker then the tornado would be called a Sattelite tornado! Usually twins are mostly in the same range of strength example:one tornado was 105 mph and the other was 107mph that would be an example of twin tornadoes and sometimes they are the exact same speed and strengths!
holy burrito i love the editing on these videos how old are you, individual? I haven't seen this kinda stuff since I was a wee lass and thats 25+ years ago
The only reason why it was rated as an EF-3 is due to it only striking rural areas. If it were to have struck the town of El Reno or made it further to Oklahoma City, it definitely would have been an EF-5.
also the video shown from skip talbot for satellite tornadoes, wasn’t a satellite tornado, that was the one of the pilger twins that crossed paths with a different tornado in wakefield, that is the fast ground speed tornado recorded, it wasn’t a satellite, pecos hank made a video explaining the whole situation. it may have appeared to be a satellite but it wasn’t
The complex part is just about every strong mesocyclonic tornado is multiple vortex in nature. The sub-vortices in cases of very powerful tornadoes (talking about ones that have earned EF4 and EF5 ratings) tend to consolidate or attach themselves to the main circulation. This, of course, leads to very intense ground and pavement scouring with cycloidal marks. Notice how the damage path of several violent tornadoes goes from "some houses slabbed while others are clean or still standing" to complete obliteration of everything and anything in its path as the tornado reaches peak intensity and peak maturity. I think when people explicitly refer to a tornado as multi-vortex, even after it wedges out or takes on other, more uniform shapes, it has more to do with tornadoes where the multi-vortex appearance is extremely obvious and visible for the whole world to see during at least one stage of its lifespan: See Cullman and Tuscaloosa-Birmingham from 4/27/2011. I also like to group drillbit tornadoes with tornadoes that produce helical sub-vortices. Three notable examples are Philadelphia, MS, EF5, Henryville, EF4, and Katie-Wynnewood, EF4. All three were large, multi-vortex stovepipe tornadoes. However, at the ground base of each tornado were very intense helical sub-vortices. Hell, the Smithville EF5 had two large helical sub-vortices within the main circulation.
@@eamonwright7488 That's exactly what they are. These side-winding multi-vortex stovepipes are so incredibly violent it's insane. Likewise, these types of tornadoes are unique in the sense that they seem to get stronger and more violent the faster they move.
Hey TornadoWX, you forgot 3 more types of tornadoes: Sheathed tornado that has multiple layers, needle tornado a tornado that has a sharp end at the bottom of the tornado, and segmented tornado a tornado that is split into 3 or more segments.
Personally I feel the term "multi-vortex tornado" scientifically, while not necessarily outdated, is primarily only kept around for convenience purposes, as well as for a more clear distinction for the general public about potentially violent tornadoes; modern science has revealed that all tornadoes are comprised of multiple vorticies, just some such as in the rope or drill-bit fashion are so narrow and condensed that they aren't generally visible to the naked eye, however upon slowing down the videos or perhaps viewing from a drone, we can clearly see even these skinny tornadoes are comprised of many vortices at ground-level.
Actually, apparently it is. I thought the exact same; just something that was made up for TV, but having asked Native Americans on Reddit and even the channel that I learned about these tornadoes from having made a follow up, it turns out there is some credibility to the claim.
8:37 fun fact. This was not a satellite tornado. That 2nd tornado was an actually other tornado that got super close tot he other tornado. Pecos hank explained it in his video “Fastest tornado”
I mean, technically, deadman walking is a multi vortex Fun fact: the 2009 goshen county rope tornado (the one on s3 discovery storm chaser) had recorded winds by dow of 240 mph
According to Native Americans, the deadman walking tornado was an omen for death if you saw it, makes sense considering it looks like two legs and a scythe
Didn't the Swegle video you mentioned say that the Jarrel deadman walking photo was from a collection of other still photos of that same tornado or am I misremembering the details ?
At first yes, if I remember correctly. However, the Fastest Wind Speeds is given to the tornado with the Confirmed Highest Wind Speed. The 1999 Bridge Creek-Moore, which is the tornado with the highest wind speed, had a confirmed wind speed of 321 mph (517 km/h). The Greenfield tornado had a confirmed max wind speed of about 309 mph (497 km/h.
I mean its Crazy that out of 8 of the Dead Man Walking there is one lone EF-3 but the EF-3 makes up for this fact since its El F*ckin Reno I mean half of them i know of just by Notoriety alone (Joplin, Jarrel,El Reno, Rainesville) Now as a sidenote Id consider Nocturnal Tornadoes to be a subclass for just Tornadoes in general,why? Well even though you cant see them they could be an invisible Cone,Wedge, Stovepipw, etc So you could have a Nocturnal Stovepipe

"More like dead man skipping." 😆
Imo I view wedge tornadoes as a big tor in the sidewinder position, and why did I say "sidewinder position" is because I view sidewinders as a position type thing, because about any tor type can be a "sidewinder" a rope, drill bit, elephant trunk, wedges, and probably more. look below
"sidewinder tornado" | \
/ or |
the two points of these "tornadoes" are different, which gives it the sidewinder shape, so I view sidewinders as a position of two points(or more) of a tornado, that is different is from each other, usually one part being straight and one part being tilted, now let's view wedge tornadoes
Wedge tor \ / - my view of a big cone
but I don't view that as a wedge tornado, I view it as a big cone tor
this is how I view wedges

because it is... a wedge, not that wedge, the other wedge, the SHAPE, I view wedges as a vertical tilted wedge shape but a lil big wider, big guess WHAT"S also in the "wedge" shape vertical position... yes you guessed right(or not) SIDEWINDERS, so that's why I view wedge's as a Side winder

All three were large, multi-vortex stovepipe tornadoes. However, at the ground base of each tornado were very intense helical sub-vortices. Hell, the Smithville EF5 had two large helical sub-vortices within the main circulation.
I consider Tornadoes like Greenfield EF4 Andover (F5), and Philadelphia MS, and Lawrenceburg F5 the "wind-rowers"
@@eamonwright7488 That's exactly what they are. These side-winding multi-vortex stovepipes are so incredibly violent it's insane. Likewise, these types of tornadoes are unique in the sense that they seem to get stronger and more violent the faster they move.
Hey TornadoWX, you forgot 3 more types of tornadoes: Sheathed tornado that has multiple layers, needle tornado a tornado that has a sharp end at the bottom of the tornado, and segmented tornado a tornado that is split into 3 or more segments.
Really really love the video, but not the backing music. 😅 Otherwise awesome work.
Dead man walking tornado...
8:25 it gave birth.
I saw 1 tornado which was as ef4 at Cape coral in 2016
Like Hole mole
What about upside down looking tornados? I remember a major dust cloud tornado that had a much bigger end and a narrow start
2:28 This looks edited. It also looks more like a dust devil than a tornado.
Personally I feel the term "multi-vortex tornado" scientifically, while not necessarily outdated, is primarily only kept around for convenience purposes, as well as for a more clear distinction for the general public about potentially violent tornadoes; modern science has revealed that all tornadoes are comprised of multiple vorticies, just some such as in the rope or drill-bit fashion are so narrow and condensed that they aren't generally visible to the naked eye, however upon slowing down the videos or perhaps viewing from a drone, we can clearly see even these skinny tornadoes are comprised of many vortices at ground-level.
My sister was born in 2018. Wow you’re actually smarter than I thought.😅
No shit he is smarter your sister young as hell😭
Joplin‘s Dead Man is horrifying
For wide tornado you should in the El Rio
10:20 clayton death energy (tarzan) but that is so scary
1999 Bridge Creek-Moore was an stovepipe tornado
sidewinder tornado is the most tornado-est tornado i have ever seen 🤣
2011 had like, 5 dead man walking tornadoes? Wow!
I chased that cell on the 23rd, they shoulda done something with Wichita
i don't think the dead man walking tornados being a native legend is a real thing
Actually, apparently it is. I thought the exact same; just something that was made up for TV, but having asked Native Americans on Reddit and even the channel that I learned about these tornadoes from having made a follow up, it turns out there is some credibility to the claim.
On may 23 was the one i got a ef1 tornado
That's my birthday🤑
@@Daddyfuckme-j8t HELP- 💀
Hey @TornadoWX why didn't you include Rain-Wrapped Tornadoes Anti-Cyclonic Tornadoes and Invisible Tornadoes?
8:37 fun fact. This was not a satellite tornado. That 2nd tornado was an actually other tornado that got super close tot he other tornado. Pecos hank explained it in his video “Fastest tornado”
5:38 honto no ahh tornado (i have a mischevious idea because of this)
I mean, technically, deadman walking is a multi vortex
Fun fact: the 2009 goshen county rope tornado (the one on s3 discovery storm chaser) had recorded winds by dow of 240 mph
According to Native Americans, the deadman walking tornado was an omen for death if you saw it, makes sense considering it looks like two legs and a scythe
Didn't the Swegle video you mentioned say that the Jarrel deadman walking photo was from a collection of other still photos of that same tornado or am I misremembering the details ?
Yeah, I goofed up and said video. I meant still photos.
5:30 its pronounced Ed-min-tin.
0:49 isn’t this a land spout?
It looks ai generated
Didn’t they confirm that the greenfield Iowa tornado had the fastest wind speed?
At first yes, if I remember correctly. However, the Fastest Wind Speeds is given to the tornado with the Confirmed Highest Wind Speed.
The 1999 Bridge Creek-Moore, which is the tornado with the highest wind speed, had a confirmed wind speed of 321 mph (517 km/h). The Greenfield tornado had a confirmed max wind speed of about 309 mph (497 km/h.
@@TornadoWX 309-318 mph*
0:39 The Regan, North Dakota tornado happened B4 9/11
Ok?
Another stove pipe funnel tornado, El Reno!!!!!
Don’t forget the type of tornado that is me at 7 am!
I mean its Crazy that out of 8 of the Dead Man Walking there is one lone EF-3 but the EF-3 makes up for this fact since its El F*ckin Reno
I mean half of them i know of just by Notoriety alone (Joplin, Jarrel,El Reno, Rainesville)
Now as a sidenote
Id consider Nocturnal Tornadoes to be a subclass for just Tornadoes in general,why? Well even though you cant see them they could be an invisible Cone,Wedge, Stovepipw, etc
So you could have a Nocturnal Stovepipe
Heard of pyrotornado where a fire creates a supercel tornado.
Stove pipe is my favorite
