We know that Tim, Paul, And Carl did not die in vain. Their research led to improved warning times and has saved countless lives. Godspeed Twistex, you will never be forgotten.
all three of them died?
Yes. In a Chevy Cobalt. They couldn't outrun the tornado that wrapped around them. A sad day for storm chasers.
DerDraak link?
Well 4 died
James Last 😔
So sad for them. But it is at least bittersweet that they died doing what they love - and together.
Kyle Eggemeyer Didn't sound like that when his son was screaming "Were dead!"
Kyle Eggemeyer wait what where did you hear that at??
Kyle Eggemeyer Another idiot on you tube.
niagra898 shut up idiot.
Kyle Eggemeyer Trust me when they knew death was imminent they weren't having happy thoughts about doing when they loved. They were probably terrified and probably hated what they were actually doing (at the point they knew they would die)
I'm only 14 now... him and a movie called Twister made me love Tornadoes ever since I was 3... he was my childhood hero and the person that made me want to be a storm chaser. R.I.P.
I'm 26 I still love that movie
Sigyn Laufeyson Same age, same feeling.
16 but same here.
Cinder Lux The only difference Cinder is that you didn't see that movie in theaters when you were 8 - hell you weren't even alive in 1996 - then proceed to go home that night and have a severe thunderstorm roll through to scare the shit out of you. haha good memories.
b7grams I will admit that I didn't see it in theaters, but my I found the VCR in my grandma's house and she played it for me when I was 2 or 3. I was obsessed even before then, but now even more :D
Tim, Paul, and Carl....... remembering you in 2023 as we are in the midst of a tornado outbreak. May will mark 10 years already since your passing. Rest peacefully knowing you surely have provided a lasting legacy and will never be forgotten.
He will be remembered forever in the world of chasing, for sure. I came back to this video, because I was nearly hit chasing the Winchester, Indiana (nocturnal) EF3 tornado recently, and it made me think of Tim, Paul, and Carl. I had never met Tim in person, but had talked to him nearly nightly via HAM radio during the winter months.
Tim Samaras was extremely safety conscious. I remember when he would look at Dr. Reed Timmer at times and shake his head. Reed was the daredevil. Tim was Mr. Safety. Therefore, this tornado really did the unexpected in order for it to take the lives of Tim, Paul, and Carl. RIP gentlemen. You all are still missed in 2019.
tim was not mr. safety, he chased a storm in a chevrolet cobalt on a muddy road. reed timmer has never done something like that
@Steven Goodnight in a heavily reinforced vehicle, with anchors attaching into the ground
@@Hallo81398 I encourage you to listen to Reed's Tedx talk if you think that
@@AnotherRandomPoser if he was so safe chasing tornados he wouldnt have ver through of using a mini sedan that cant get out of dirt and has no power using that car was pretty stupid
@@NickyD no that's my point, was a rebuttal to "Reed's never done anything like that". In Reed's TedX talk he describes using almost solely $500 used cars to chase tornadoes in, granted maybe they had more power than a Cobalt LS but they still weren't all that much safer.

The Last Day Of A Storm Chaser
The Last Chase
El Reno Oklahoma
EF3 2.6 Miles Wide
Never Forget
3 Years Ago
Mitchell John Leslie and Richard Henderson
Clorox Bleach they go by how much damage it did so it was an EF3. But it definitely was an EF5
Mitchell John Leslie the windspeed was from a EF-5. There weren’t really city’s on it’s path so the damge was EF-3 but the windspeed was way stronger than the strongest hurricane(logic tornado windspeeds of a F5 are stronger) well mostly
It was EF5
@@WeckoGecko tornados are not rated on the EF scale by windspeed, hurricanes are. Tornados are rated on the amount of damaged they inflict. you may get a small tornado go through a major city and do millions to billions of pounds/dollars of damage, this will be a EF5. this tornado that killed Twistex team was the biggest on record, but, done little structural damage classified EF3. Moore, OK, tornado., a little smaller in size, almost same windspeed, but caused huge structural damaged, EF5.
I ran into Tim at a Boise City motel after a chase day around 2004. He didn't know me, but acted like we were childhood friends and invited me and my gf into his room to watch the vid he had shot that day. As nice a guy as I have ever met. RIP Tim, Paul and Carl.
I don't know these people, but knowing they dedicated their lives to science, to tornado research, just makes me feel sore about their passing. Long live these heroes!
I only recently got into tornadoes and science. But it still makes me feel...well, like what you’re feeling- sore. Long live these heroes!
This is what happen to good people. Sad thing is they die when they are doing what they love most. Tim was killed by a tornado same as Steve Irwin was killed by a stingray.
Yeah. All the best people die...
Just like in the garden, what flowers do people try to pick first?
.... The best ones
Did you learn about steve irwin in a Magic Tree House Book?
Phill18 both of them where my childhood heros and they still are today we will never forget them
Kinda like Paul Walker died with a final ride in his car.
yeah but Sting Ray Deaths are EEEEEXTTTTTREEEEEEEMMMMMEEEEELLYYYYY rare.
and he hunted crocs... for the most part
I remember getting out of my cellar and getting the news. I have never been more upset in my entire life. I looked up to Tim. He was a great role model. Rest in piece.
I agree ;( rest in peace tin and reed ;;;;(((((
AzFireHawkzA AzNeonzA reed didn't die Tim samaras, Paul samaras, and Carl young died. :( RIP boys!
What reed didn't die well still rest in peace
thats why im going to be a storm chaser
Dr Lag MD I'm from Dayton, Ohio and the devastation here is horrific! Please pray for out state..ty. They are incredible for risking their safety to help enlighten us how to save ours! Ty to them..
thanks for ur support guys Tim was my grandpa : he died when I was 10 :( but he lives on in heaven chasing those tornados
Skipper Laska You grandfather was a great man. My daughter is going into severe weather science partially because of Tim. I know he is still chasing.
Im not saying you a lier but is this true?😢
i dont see Samaras in your name
@@deianpfg8833 Tim has two daughters and two grandchildren......so the last name being different isn't an issue.
So sorry for your loss.
Hard to believe that today marks the 10 year anniversary. RIP Twistex. Tim, Paul, and Carl were some of my childhood inspirations.
He rode a tornado to heaven.
snakebitmgee blizzard of nyc
yes
snakebitmgee, A beautiful way of putting it.
Lol
Rider on the storm.
Nat Geo, thank you for this short clip. An hour long special would be superb to help the world understand what Tim, Paul and Carl were doing. Tim's work has helped save lives. It makes me so very sad that he died in the pursuit of further knowledge. I hope his remaining family are being cared for. We all owe Tim, Paul and Carl a debt of gratitude. Rest in peace, guys.
The November 2013 Nat Geo magazine article has Tim on the front and is titled "The Monster Storm" and the article inside goes in depth and is called "The Last Chase" and recounts the entire incident pretty well.
As an amateur newbie chaser who's just getting started, that last clip broke my heart. "...Finish out the mission after I'm long gone." We're doing this for you, Tim. We're doing this for you, Paul, Carl, and many others.
Man, I really feel for Carsten Peter. You know this loss will haunt him for the rest of his life.
Joyce Boyd
Just imagine how Mrs. Samaras feels. Losing her husband, only son, and a family friend all at once.
@@ArtGardenFoodExpressions He is a photographer who worked with Tim Samaras, and also regularly contributed to National Geographic...
@@ArtGardenFoodExpressions You are most welcome...
@@ArtGardenFoodExpressions how has the last 9 years been sit?
Ten years ago today. My how time flies. RIP.
2 YEARS TODAY...STILL IN OUR HEARTS AND MINDS xxx
and this comment was from 6 years ago.... how quickly does time fly...wow
R.I.P. Tim samaras and the twistex team
I have watched him and the storm chasers series I have always been inspired by weather and technology
Again rest in peace Tim samaras and the twistex team....
Tim may be gone but he'll never be forgotten thanks to his research which continues to save lives.
I remember when I was living in Dallas some years back and was trying to outrun a tornado behind me, and then another formed about a mile down the road in front of me. One of the scariest moments in my life.
how did u escape ?
tell us how you escaped?
What year was this ?
I had the honor of meeting Tim and he was very safe in what he did he told me himself that he would not get that close unless he could safely. So this day I don't know what happened but it was a great loss. His video of charging of the clouds before the lighting strike was amazing. To this day I feel honored for being able to meet and talk with him.
WeLL he's dead, and u never met him, QUIT LYING
@@cleophaswhite1916You can’t prove they are lying no more than they can prove they are telling the truth, don’t make assumptions
Watching the episode of "Storm Chasers", where everyone learned about the death of Tim, Paul, and Carl passed away, was bittersweet. Tim Samaras was the Steve Irwin of tornado chasers. He had passion for what he did, regardless of the dangers he faced. Unfortunately, Mother Nature had his number, ten years ago.
You can just see the pain in their eyes and you can tell all of them are trying not to break down. Storm chasing really did change since 2013, even 8 years later and it still doesn't feel the same. Now it feels more like a job, than a dream.
He died doing something he loved! Rip Tim
I hope I die doing something that I love, like sleeping 😴 🛌 💤
I am crying. I can't process this loss. I just can't process it. I feel for their family, and all who knew and loved them. when I look at them, they looked healthy and happy and strong. I just wonder, what went through their minds, particularly Tim's mind for his son.
The greatest tornado, defeats the greatest chaser. Tim Samaras will be missed.
After watching him on storm chasers I feel so sad for him now. He seemed like a great person. There's a memorial on the site where they were hit and killed by the tornado..people gave various offerings to them
It's so tragic. Tim, Paul and Carl died in the El Reno tornado. Imagine realizing that the tornado turned and you're in the path. There's nothing you can do. I read somewhere that Tim was still strapped in his vehicle. Paul and Carl were found in a field aways away. I feel for Tim's wife. She not only lost a husband, she lost her son.
I just hope the men who flew out of the vehicle passed out or were knocked out before flying up violently and dropping to the ground. Or Tim being strapped in, helplessly watching as his son got sucked out. It is so emotionally painful and horrific, but people need to know the reality they're putting themselves in with stormchasing. None of this "they just rode up the clouds to heaven" stuff from other people commenting here. Respect reality. Learn from their tragedy so they didn't suffer and die in vain.
@@lioleigh9791 why would it matter if they saw that? their fate was sealed either way. he'd be dead in a moments notice and would probably be not reflecting about his sons horrible death.
watch "escaping the el reno"
As a former skywarn spotter I hope and pray that Tim,Paul and Carl RIP. What they did was try to help save people and ended up giving their own lives to try to save others!!! RIPGuys. You will never be forgotten
It’s been 7 years and this is still insane
I'd rather die accomplishing my life goals than live 80+ years without purpose.
then you do you
yeah, can’t imagine living a long, miserable life.
just like most people do and most people don't realize it that they worked for nothing until they retire
I remember Tim really well. I was fascinated by the Tornado watch and chase. Tim is the guy who got me into the chasing and watching them live. I think I may have watched that live. RIP Tim.
Almost 6 years to the date of your final chase... RIP to Tim and Paul Samaras and Carl Young, your selfless dedication is well appreciated
My heart sank that day. I was stunned as I liked to watch the Twistex team and I read a lot about Tim and his HAM radio stuff. Blessings to his family and friends.
Still cannot believe it. My mom crys for them and I still cannot understand how this happened. May they all REST IN PEACE. We will never forget. :(
9 years today :( R.I.P Tim, Carl & Paul, gone but never forgotten. Thinking of the families today, much love from the UK x
I remember hearing his death on TV, I was like 11 and I was so sad because he was my favorite storm chaser.
I was 4 and a half it was insane
They helped so many people to remain safe and alive during these disasters. His death is a reminder that you can do everything right and it can still go completely wrong.
Such amazing men. Died doing what they loved, no shame in that game. Rest in peace and God bless!!
he was one of my idols,i chased VEEEERY weak EF0 tornadoes because of him,May he rest in peace.
May he rest in peace. He was a legend! But he will live forever because no one was like him. Because of him I started to learn about tornadoes.
An Amazing Story of Amazing People Trying to help Mankind understand Nature a little better.RIP
Mankind has learned how to play God
That one guy says "Suddenly it turned left" and he's got a huge smile on his face! I hate when someone is smiling when clearly they shouldnt be!!😬
Wonderful and heartfelt story. RIP.
Almost that time of year again. 11years later n still sorly missed.
RIP Time Samaras we will all miss you :(
Yes, Time
This breaks my heart. To lose people that risk their lives to save others, saying thank you isn't enough. Please be safe chasers, we love all of you!
I still can't believe he was killed, I used to watch his movies & videos faithfully. What an amazing human to lose doing what he loved. His legacy has taught so many!
Ten years later, we still mourn the loss of Twistex. Their contributions to meteorology will forever save lives. Rest In Peace.
Rest in peace, Tim Samaras. You have contributed so much to National Geographic and the world. :(
R.I.P TIM, CARL, AND PAUL You will be truly missed.
RIP Tim, you are not forgotten💜
Miss you Tim and Paul and Carl. Your memory and contributions to understanding the mechanics of these monsters will never be forgotten. Never. Thank you and your team and family. ♥️🙏
Tim was my Friend my colleague and the best storm chaser I have ever known. Fearless,,but cautious. We chased so many f-_5s together and he always kept me safe,,,prayers to you and your Family and Friends. ⚡🌪
Tornadoes do the unexpected by their very nature. Obviously he wasn't all that safe considering he's dead.
They drove right into the path of a large tornado. How safe is that?
3 years without the best chaser. RIP Tim.
I remember this heartbreaking story rip to these brave men
I do some amateur chasing myself and friends and family have simply accepted that I had a screw loose. But after Tim, Paul and Carl -- three well-trained pros -- they've asked me to stop. Not sure that I will...but I know the storm chasing community lost three of the best there ever were. And that's a loss for all of us.
How are you doing now mate?
@@teawithc8303 😬😬😬
@@teawithc8303 uh oh
Just stay cautious and know that you're life is not worth taking a picture over. Some people do dangerous things in order for fame or clout. Hope you are doing well, its been 8 years now.
@@teawithc8303 it got him 😂
He got caught up in a traffic jam when the tornado turned and sped toward them. They were helpless, being unable to move. Tim, more than anybody in this world, knew what was to follow. Im sure his final moments were filled with him telling everybody to get ur head down and hold onto something...RIP all who lost their lives on 5/31/2013...the work carries on
Terri Hutchinson His final moments were heard on a police radio.. Just heard him saying "Were going to die"
Mesocyclone link?
Terri Hutchinson Extremely sad by their deaths, by why did they not choose a 4X4 like a Ford F150 instead of that Chevy cobalt?
Saptarshi B. because they are stupid
+Saptarshi B. With a tornado that big it would've made no difference. It's like being shot by a tank shell, would you rather be wearing a leather jacket or cotton sweatshirt? Either way you'd die.
I remember watching him when I was a child, with my grandma, and I have always been obsessed with tornadoes, and when I heard that he died, I cried my eyes out. R.I.P
I'm not a storm chaser but if I had the chance to ride with on it would have been Tim. He gave a lot of data to try to save other people from being killed in tornado's. I was in total shock when I heard that Tim, Paul & Carl lost there life & that should send a strong message to other's if your not a pro at chasing tornado's stay away from them because you are risking your life with something you no nothing about & leave it to the pro's .
5:02 that's so unbelievably terrifying and a scary description of the Twister. I can't imagine trying to get to a tornado and its rainwrapped, and not even realizing that the entire tornado is the rainwrap. It's crazy, scary, and sad. You will be missed Tim Paul and Carl... Never forget
All I can say is, even after 7 years, I miss you Tim!💔
tomorrow i have a small speech about tornadoes in front of my class, i just realized, tomorrow its 5 years back. We love you Tim, Paul and Carl! you guys were great, i hope one day i can leave Europe and continue what you were doing. Rest in peace
They fell before the behemoth of storms but died with honor and became legends
That was a battle between a legend and a giant, absolutely incredible.
wow this was a shock to watch RIP Tim.
only had been watching previous footage of him this week too
Thank you for doing this vignette peice on him and twistex team. This really seemed to have a huge effect on so many people. There's a lot of anguish and sadness still at Twistex's ending as people continue to discover the storm chaser series and the stories.

I saw the episode when Tim was caught and died. The next day it was all over the news. Tim was very careful and smart . What a severe loss.
Almost 3 years they've been gone. RIP Tim,Paul, and Carl. At least they died doing what they were passionate about, and saved many lives with their research.
7 years now
He was an amazing man.
Tim thank you for all the wonderfull tornado videos and photographs, you will always be remembered.
thank you twistex for all that you did. i remember watching you as a little girl, you sparked my interest in weather. gone but definitely not forgotten.
He was a excallent storm chaser i cant belive he died
I live in tornado alley. Any death is tragic, but the most tragic ones of all are the ones that could be prevented. These people forgot how unpredictable these tornadoes can be. They can change direction in the blink of an eye. That is why you always, always, always, keep a huge distance between yourself and them.
Can't stop my tears... thank you so much for everything, dear people and brave men! Love...
The problem with storm chasing is that eventually you end up in a situation you can't get away from. Tim and the movie Twister go hand and hand with me. He was a legend.
Tim, Paul and Carl didn't die, they got in the tornado, rode it up to the clouds, and are now living a life from above.
Your Moms Woven Nest Yes. So true. Probably making a name for themselves in Heaven.
So inane... they are DEAD and GONE.
Huh TM?? Another myth teller that can’t handle the realities of nature, life, and death.
they're up there with Matt, Joel, and Herb.
I'm torn on Tim Samaras and the impact he had. Participating in a show that literally featured teams trying to drive into the path of tornadoes shortly before they hit that spot - with his team being the *only* one not in an armored purpose-made vehicle...probably helped warp the norms and expectations of storm chasing in a bad way. When they died, a lot of people said stuff like "I never would have thought it'd be him because he was so conservative and safety-conscious". But that's of course not really true. In reality he merely gave something inherently highly dangerous a level-headed facade.
The El Reno tornado was a tornado designed to kill aggressive chasers, not residents. Since then the tornado has become some sort of mythological thing and people cling to the EF5 notion because, well, a lot of chasers got close to being killed by that thing and a very famous one did get killed. Perhaps it would be a bit embarrassing if it was 'only' an EF3 that did that. One of the main elements of the chaser psyche is the feeling of control. It's the sense of control that makes the risk bearable. You got all your gear, your radar, your GPS. You're merely observing, you're not really subject to the danger. But that day they all had lost control. It was pure coincidence it hit Samaras and not any other crew. How often have you seen chasers go "there's rotation right behind us, too" or "i think it's trying to drop something right over us"? Chasers often follow a template of where a tornado should be and what they should look for, and in the process they underestimate the chaos of many of such cells as they evolve.
Samaras and Co. didn't get killed by anything specific to an EF5. Much weaker tornadoes can toss a sedan. He got most likely killed because he got caught by a sub-vortex in the tornadic windfield. And he got caught in that because his approach - along with almost everyone else's there - was safety-conscious only if the tornado had behaved in a favorable, predictable manner and not in the chaotic, unpredictable manner that it ended up displaying.
Storm Chasers ended several years before Tim, Carl and Paul were killed. They didn't want to drive into a tornado, but the way they deployed their weather instruments required darting across the path of a tornado. The day they were killed it looked like everyone was running for their lives.
@Michael G Tried Thank you for bringing out the uncomfortable part of this--I tried to say what you did--yours is way way better. From the standpoint of escaping how many close calls, or the specific things you mention---additional funnels-many things....1 chaser the Pecos guy I think also mentioned the frustrating issues that happen in a day of chasing--esp that the road maps are INCORRECT frequently!! Or other winds trees debris making a planned escape route impossible at last second, etc, etc., etc!
If you gamble long enough, your # will come up...so please stay respectfully far enough away. **ALSO Tim was trying to deploy equipment so he had a scientific reason to want to be as close as he was....most "chasers" are just trying to film its not worth your life!!
thank you!
@@Kaylin_h And don't forget, because he didn't get all of his grant money, he CHOSE to drive a cheap underpowered tin can instead of a heavier, more powerful truck. It's very likely that between the headwind, low powered engine and poor traction, the car he owned and was riding in could barely hit 30 to 35 mph. A car a couple hundred yards ahead of his was able to escape although that car was also underpowered and the driver complained the traction control couldn't be turned off and he could barely do 30 mph.
They were killed because the tornado was more erratic than how usual tornadoes were
His research efforts will continue to save lives. Even heroes can lose their lives. Rip
Resin peace forever Tim, Paul, and Carl. Thank you for everything you've done.
It’s amazing how calm chasers could be compared to the complete chaos inside many buildings
The legend will live on.
Two years 4 days ago exactly, RIP Tim Samaras + unnamed chase crew. They are all sorely missed I am sure.
El Reno Tornado will go down in history as one of the most Infamous tornados.
*Rest Easy Tim*
Still in our hearts and thoughts!!!!! ❤❤❤.......
The woman and the men in this documentary did such a great job in explaining everything and walking us through that day and the scenario.
I remember be in that tornado I was 26 years old me and my friend was out there in El Reno, Oklahoma crazy times I will never forget that day ever
Well so far another crazy season is happening and I know Tim and the crew would love to be out here helping people and doing what they love❤ may they all rest in peace🙏🏼
RIP Tim, Paul, Carl. RIP peoples hearts Reed, Denver residents, Joel, Josh, Tony, NG, and many more including me. Rest In Peace team TWISTEX. I'm surprised that it was Tim and TWISTEX crew and now Reed or Sean or Josh no offense but he was the safe one and he will be dearly missed. :(
This was as heartbreaking as Steve Irwin’s death. I’ll never forget the day he died. June 1st 2013 I woke up and I saw on the news that this absolute legend had died.
People like this are the true heroes of the world. They are the ones that advance society so that we live better, safer, and longer.
These guys saw so many awesome things including the incredible acts of humanity after a tornado in the affected communities.
We lost a great scientist on that day. Rest in Peace and keep a watch out for all of us left behind who at still at Mother Natures mercy.
After i heard of his death i was shocked, i had seen the storm chasers documentary on DMAX and knew what had done.Some of our media in germany talk about him in a small news.What a bad joke of fate, the most cautiousness and experienced man in stuff like this ,got hit by his encounter he tried to understand how it works to safe others life.
Rip to tim carl and paul tim was my storm chasing hero sasly he died doing what he loved
It is such a shame too lose someone with so much passion RIP to all who were lost during this storm
Hey, whats up fellow storm chasers and weather forecasters. My favorite storm chasers are Reed Timmer and Team Twistex featuring the late Tim Sarmaras and his son Paul Samaras.All three were featured on the Storm Chasers TV Series. I love watching storms and hurricanes go by me in South Florida. Thanx for keeping track of them tornadoes for us wannabe storm chasers. Its so sad what happend to Team Twistex on this day. I am very much like Reed and Tim Samaras. I can usually tell when a storm goes through the city in Florida I live in (because of storm chasers like them) because I am sensitive to the fast weather changes like Tim & Reed are. I have Asperger's Syndrome and because of the senstivity of my medication side effects I take for this makes me estremely sensitve to weather changes! I know when it changes from hot to cold in the air that means a storm is on the way. Thanx and please stay safe! Long Live Storm Chasing !!!! RIP Team Twistex!
Tim you were a nice person you saved life's and you did everything for people but the tornado killed you and your team twistex :( wuhh I'm crying :,( so terrible
we all love you and team twistex :)
thanks tim, paul carl and wisdom throughout tornadoes
God bless you Tim. Rest in piece, your son as well. I was basically in Yukon Oklahoma at the time of this tornado, and believe it or not, sub vortices were developing actual tornadoes, also rain wrapped all the way out here from that supercell. It was the most hellish day I can remember, and my pug frank and I almost got struck by lightning standing outside.......
