    Absolutely amazing. So beautiful. I don't think my life will feel complete until I see a tornado up close for myself.

    This is Tim Samaras, you know him from storm chasers on discovery. State of the art equipment and the knowledge to back it up.

    @scootermom1791 3 года назад +2

    Between 1:30 to 1:40 the twister seems to hover over that spot as if it's alive and knows it's being filmed.

    That's actually a very nice Tornado, no debris in it, therefore, no destruction, no casualties. I like that~

    WARNING - Tornado Crossing

  • @johnmyatenko7850
    @johnmyatenko7850 11 лет назад +1

    Hi I am meteorologist, I wanna tell you how the tornado formed. So the warm,moist air rises, but cold and warm air is meeting and low pressure in the center so because of the moisture, dark clouds formed. The humid air from the surface rises and the cool air sinks so the clouds beginning to build into CUMULONIMBUS CLOUD. The Clouds got fast enough and they begin to rotate.

    @TheTropicalsummer 12 лет назад +1

    Wow ! I have never seen anything quite like this, you have been feeling apprehensive while driving and filming, I am sure I would have been had it been me, that looked to be a monster of a storm, do they really sound that way with that heavy roaring sound, they sound different to a cyclone,I was in Cyclone Yasi Australia. I want to thank you for your video It was very interesting and really Amazed me. I received quite an education. smiles !
