    "What is this Semi DOING?!"
    He's got a grain tipper, essentially a dump truck full of corn or wheat, and it gets super heavy. He may weigh up to 80,000 lbs and thinks he can take it. And he in fact, does, and doesn't even wobble.
    The second Semi, is not a grain tipper, and may way 25,000 to 40,000 lbs, with his trailer acting like a sail rather than a lead weight. So he's not as smart.

    I've noticed some people don't really expect it when it comes to More Pi (for whatever reason???) but the dude stays calm, collected, professional, and works the cameras and other equipment in genuinely excellent fashion.
    I just watched some vids of other chasers literally freaking out as if the apocalypse was upon us and screaming ridiculously (i.e. "it's rotating, OH MY GOODNESS IT'S ROTATING DO YOU SEE THIS? IF YOU LOOK AT THE SKY YOU CAN SEE THERE IS ROTATION! IT IS ROTATING I TELL YOU, ROTATING!"... yea, we know it's rotating you don't have to scream it at the top of your lungs, "IT'S ON THE GROUND, IT'S ON THE GROUND, IT'S ON THE GROUND, IT'S ON THE GROUND!"... ok why are you blowing out your voice box as if you're a Deth Metal singer in a way that aggravates nearly all viewers to say the same obvious thing 4-5+ times in row... etc).
    Anyways, quality job with your coverage sir. Thank you.

    I haven't seen this many irresponsible storm chasers and drivers since El Reno. Everybody is driving into it like it's not even there and then when they want to observe it, they stop in the middle of the road like idiots. Pi, I love watching your videos. You're a great contributor to the storm chasing microcosm here on RUclips, but please be more observant of your surroundings and other drivers when messing with your cameras and devices. The amount of large debris in close proximity was probably too close for your safety.
    Safe travels!

    A few more small tornadoes touched down near Great Bend, but as far as I know, did little to no damage.

    Although it makes them harder to see thus more dangerous, it still looks interesting.

    I don’t know how much you know about truck drivers, but they’ve been on the road a few years they have probably seen quite a few bad storms and tornadoes. Most of the time they drive right past the tornado it might look like they’re driving into it but, they are smarter than that they do this for a living.
