My My My such potty mouths, thats ok get it out of your system, they don't let you talk shit on other sites, they are very linient here which is fuckin'cool,but you shouldn,t bring religion in to anything, it is a persons right to there own beliefs and should not be condoned. And no one should make fun of other religions, doesn't mean you have to respect them, but don't be criticizing peoples beliefs, you all have beliefs too.
The way people respond on these really shows their true colors. So many of you totally miss the point of these videos. I am from Kansas and small towns all over Kansas would react just the same. People here care for one another and want to see each other thrive. So many people who have never been here think we are all hicks and dumb, so ingnorant. It really makes me sad the way folks argue over such minute things. We like it here, we like our independance and solitude. We'll just keep it for us!
It never ceases to amaze me how many foul mouthed,degenerating youth and people of today argue and rant and rave,and disagree,and say"well,the one I went through was bigger" WHO GIVES A SHIT? They are almost all huge and have affectedpeople.Can't you people just shut the hell up and watch the videos without all the name calling,arguing,and immature ridiculous bullshit you all come up with? DAMN YOU KIDS TODAY AND YOUR MOUTHS AND LACK OF CONTROL! GROW-UPPPPPPPP!\
Mediocre low end documentary, 2 out of 10. Sloppy interviews that lingered way too long. Would have been nice to have more interviews with people who experienced the tornadoes. Understand older people wanting to rebuild the town but the younger ones should use this disaster as an opportunity to escape. Town was dying before the storm hit.
look its not about which town is bigger or had a stronger tornado its about a kansas town that went through the unthinkable and stead of running they stood by there neighbors family friends and loved ones and stuck it out they had the courage not to let something so bad bring them down i think you are all amazing ppl in greensburg makes me proud to be a kansan you rock greenburg!!!
@jvahdani JUST SO YOU KNOW I WENT THROUGH THE SAME THING NO NEED TO GET FREAKIN DEFENSIVE OK? SO CALM YOUR SH*T CUZ ITS UNCALLED FOR SERIOUSLY. IT WAS A TERRIBLE TORNADO. NOT MY FAULT YOUR TOWN WAS BIGGER. ITS A TORNADO. YOU NEED TO GET OVER IT. I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY WENT THROUGH MORE... I WANT TO KNOW IF YOU LOST YOUR WHOLE CITY?!?! DIDNT THINK SO.. I DID I WENT THROUGH THAT TORNADO. SO EFF OFF!! LEAVE GREENSBURG BE! WE ARE BETTER AND MORE GREEN ANYWAY--
GET UR FACTS RIGHT! MAY 3RD OKC WAS LARGEST MOST POWERFUL AND DEVSASTATING IN AMERICAN HISTORY 316MPH WINDS! OVER 40 KILLED AND 1.1 BILLION DAMAGE! UR IS ACTUALLY SMALL COMPARED TO THAT! I KNOW CAUSE I WAS IN IT! THEREFORE NO NEED TO WATCH THIS BUT BRIAN SCHODORF, REWRITE UR DESCRIPTION BC THATS FALSE ! T.Y.
Repent you Leaders that control these Nations and humanity keep the commandments and obey God's Laws, not man, but our creator, if not more devistation is coming. Jesus said that these things must come to pass the bible must be fulfilled. Mathew 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
@brandenbrownlie yea a few times. i have friends and relatives there. i myself only live a couple counties away. the homes only look like crap because they haven't had owners for so long a.k.a foreclosure. another reason is because people in that area have made a business out of stripping the foreclosed houses of the plumbing, and various other profitable items to sell it for scrap.
This my first time seeing this video, and all i can say is there is a GOD and HE was with the people of Greensburg on that night! i don't see how any one lived thru that EF5 tornado and have the will to rebuilt, you have my blessings and prayers.
This my first time seeing this video, and all i can say is there is a GOD and HE was with the people of Greensburg on that night! i don't see how any one lived thru that EF5 tornado and the will to rebuilt, you have my blessings and prayers.
I'm someone who grew up in Ohio so tornadoes aren't all that common in my city, which sits in a valley. I've always had a huge fascination with tornadoes however, which was the reason I found this video. I just wanted to say to the people of Greensburg, the rest of the world is rooting for you. It was a terrible and tragic thing that happened, but you all are survivors. You all are AWESOME!
its so hard because of all the good memories i have of the old town and now they are nothing but memories and i can never go back into the house and i can never go back to my aunt house cause its all gone. So now its all new, but lucky we are able to start new memories.
I dont believe that God judges us by "allowing these things to happen, but by how we respond to these things that happen. An F4 Tornado must be a truly horrifying phenomenon like any other nature disaster, but the experience of I know is truly unique. I hope the people of Greensburg have recovered. God Bless
My mama used to say, if you can figure God out He isn't God. Why would God allow this to happen? Ask Job. I don't get it. But God is in charge and sometimes He challenges our faith, sometime really hard challenges like this. Will we still trust or will quit? I love you folks in Greensburg! You've done so well and bounced back. May God prosper you in every way!
I am very happy to see Greensburg come back to life. Maybe a little more tolerance as well? I am sure I am not the first to comment on this but I was bothered by the fact that the ONLY black person in this documentary was a NY Firefighter volunteering to HELP this devastated community. I am really curious to know if there were any black families living there before the storm? I did notice one lady and her son who seemed to be East Indian possibly? Here's to the youth of this new town...
EF is Enhanced Fujita scale upgraded from the F because of the advancements in radar, ie dopplar and nexrad among orthers just a more accurate measurements is all the EF means.
EF5 is not any bigger or stronger than F5, they are comparable with adjusted wind speeds that are now estimated more accurately.
I'm pretty sure a town of athiests could rebuild just as well as a town of religious folks.
In terms of size, Hallam, Nebraska 2004 is the biggest (widest) tornado at 2.4 miles (was rated F4). Actually the Greensburg EF5 wasn't even the widest tornado on this night, another EF3 was over 2 miles wide (Greensburg 1.7).
I have never seen such pride, spirit and sheer determination in a community such as this. One can't help but feel emotional for these people. I have most certainly have enormous respect and admiration for this community and its many wonderful people. It made me realize that no matter how much evil is in this world, there are angels among us.
This Tornado was not the biggest in history, April 3, 1974 an F5 hit Brandenburg, Kentucky. I was 12 years old and I watched it as it destroyed the school building in Irvington Kentucky before going to Brandenburg.
@haclaycomb actually you are wrong by a long shot young man the largest in history in damage and death occurred in June 1925 a tornado formed in missouri and crossed into and thru illinois and ended in Indiana it's path of destruction was over 500miles and killed several hundred people and it averaged (from eye witness accounts) anywhere from 1.5 - 2.0 miles wide eye witnesses in Illinois said at times it looked liked the wall cloud was actually touching the tops of the taller trees.
Man this was worse than the EF-5 that hit Wheatland, PA. I live up here, and it wiped out 3/4 of the town but not the entire town. Such resiliancy from the Americans that live there. Makes me proud to have served this country.
So incredibly sad and inspirational. I'm making a road trip. Hell, I might even fall in love with the community itself and stay forever. The people are so nice and they care for each other. You can't say that about most places in the US. God bless Greensburg.
I remember it like it was just yesterday, May 4th 2007 Me and my mom were going to go on a bike ride we were living in Hutchinson ,Ks about 50 miles north east of greensburg and i didnt want to go right then so i colored for a while then we went and we lived about half a mile from the bike trail and right as we got on the siren go and i remember that everyone was sayin greensburgs gone and i was so sad i was about 7
I drive from L.A. Ca, to Columbus Ohio each week driving a truck for FedEx. Each week I come into Greensburg, I am just amazed, how a town that had been demolished by this monster storm, has rebuilt its self to what it is today. To the people of Greensburg, you are amazing, you are the true midwest town! Your town looks better by each week, and I take my hat off to you, for standing by your community and not running off to another town/city.
Our hearts still go out to you today, years later!
@Agitate74 i cant find anything online that updates what has been going on with the rebuilding of Greensburg. yeah there are lots of stories on the whole green thing. i just mean some basic pics of the town in general and how it looks now compared to then. wanted to post them on facebook just so people from AL MS and GA could see that they can do it. they are not different, in this country we are cut from the same cloth. we persevere. but i cant find any basic pics from there.
; jusst saying. i live here; I LIVE IN GREENSBURG. I Always Have; Andd Always WIll..andd glad to say; todayy is the 3rd year anniversary of it striking. we have had been rebuilding, our BRAND NEW School will be finished in 3 months; and most everybody has a house again; we all know that it'll take forever though. to replant all the trees; andd take forever to honestly clean it up; we still have many many, things to fix, and to rebuild, and to make whole again.
No- you're wrong. Nature's forces came together just so, and a tornado formed, and a town was in its path, and that town was struck and nearly entirely wiped out. It had nothing to do with the people, whom YOU have no right to judge.
@latinguy67 you're a stupid ignorant fool who needs to wake up and realize that those were not bad horrible people who got smited by some all mighty god! you are a self centered jack ass who has no right to judge anyone because that is not your job. if anyone is evil it's you for being such a closed minded fool.
@latinguy67 yeah well good job cause if your christian then your god is going to send you to hell. read your bible and it'll tell you straight up that if you judge then you will be judged by him and then your screwed. btw nice come back. i bet my 7yr old niece could come up with a better one then that.
@latinguy67 um yeah. i've been through tornadoes before and i respect them. i live in texas so it's nothing new. what i say and what i think does not cause forces of nature and if it did i'd make one would suck your ass up so fast it'd make your head spin. until you learn just how terrible a tornado can be and learn that "god" doesn't make them then you should keep your comments to yourself. grow up and gain some maturity.
@latinguy67 that i'm smarter then you and actually know what i'm talking about? yeah i guess it does. why don't you try posting something that you can actually relate to? idk... how bout a big pile of shit?
@latinguy67 i'm replying to your terrible comment you left about the whole god smiting them bull shit. that's a horrible thing to say to these people and you really need to grow up and learn to shut your mouth about things like that.
i feel sad for them i live in east TN i have never been in a tornado exept once in athens i was 9 i was scared now i have never seen one again i wanna se how the people their are doing now but i hear tornados arent common their but they get warnings i hope this never happens again i love greensburg greatr place to visit
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
A place "where our values were born". Where people "go to church".
Many religous quacks said Katrina happened due to faulty morals on the part of New Orleans.
With that logic, it becomes completely obvious to me that this horrible tornado happened because God Hates Christians. Fred Phelps is still living so we ain't seen nothing yet.
I always heard that an EF5 tornado could do as much damage as a nuclear explosion, like wiping an area off the face of the earth and it did. I wonder if there will be more like the strength of this one? I hope not...
I live in El Dorado Kansas not far from wichita i remember watching the new cast from my moms friends house....my dad works at mcconnell and he had to go clean up and the picutres that he brought back were devestating but yet amazing because of what a single tornado can do...
Very sad situation...it was good that so many came together to help and many committed to stay and rebuild. That is a true American spirit. God Bless.
so many shots from this video arent even of greensburg, I lived 30 miles south of there in a town called coldwater, the tornadoe missed us by about 1mile.
not to get into a long winded exhaustive debate about creation but it is a matter of faith and what u believe in...if u like to debate the issue a local college usually has really good classes on the subject.....
@apatte4975 While there are schools of thinking to both sides, there is an underlying truth to the statement that God is control of what occurs in nature. While its hard to understand WHY God would allow something like this, an EF5 tornado in the middle of the night, we've gotta keep believing that God knows what He is doing is good. He does NOTHING that is not for our own good. And while the devastation is dramatic and sad, Greensburg has rebuilt itself better than ever&God blessed them thru it
@statboy08 Religious or not, one with an open-mind should be able to make sense of both theories while they're still theories.
There is no Science vs God, because Science and God do not make each other invalid ideas.
Why would God let this happen? Observe the scientific reason it happened. Weather goes through cause and effect. What caused the storm and what specifically caused it to be so huge? The difference may be a small, overlooekd detail that eventrually tracks to something else. =)
@statboy08 I have a theory for the religious who want to know why God let this happen. First, I already explained the cause and effect chain. It can back track pretty far leading to something completely unrelated. Even multiple things. Something went wrong maybe?
But then it was set up to happen through the process of nature and reality like anything else. How could the fuse be allowed to happen when it'd lead to this and maybe other things?
JCRY It's your type of idiotic comments that give all Christians a bad name. Show the world compassion leave the wrath and vengeance proclamations up to god.
In the last days, there will be those who openly MOCK GOD. I CAN'T SEE A BREEZE, CAN'T TOUCH IT, SMELL IT, MUST NOT EXIST ! OPPS....That non existing breeze just destroyed your hometown ! I think your name tells alot about your IQ
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
people have mocked your "kind, loving, yet vengeful" god sense he was created. they will continue to do so until he is destroyed. welcome to the 21st century, your Hell is all around you and you have assisted in creating it.
What struck me the most was the spirit of the community. Wow! I want to move to Greensburg now. I live in Surrey Canada where there is little community and little care esp from our government. You guys are so lucky to live there, and should be proud because you make it what it is. Wow. Its nice to know good people , good communities, and faith to persevere still exist :) Very inspiring !
@grumpyjunior it's actually quite hard; to see your house; like that. to see it in a big mess; everything you've ever had; or have. just ruined; every photo; every memory is gone. it's so hard. i hated it at first; i CRIED, and cRIED; then we realized God had given us a second chance, he had given us a chance to rebuild; make a better place. it's an amazing miracle ; it REALY is. you'd like it here.
Our government is doing it's best to destroy communities such as this one. An F5 can't destroy community, family and faith, but our government sure is doing a damn good job of it.
Wow..this was not only the largest EF5 recorded..it's also the longest YouTube video I've ever seen. No complaints here! Greensburg is a very nice town. I hope they open up the Hand Dug Well (if it sin't already open).
I am very sad for this entire town, but I am happy to know that they are coming together to rebuild the first sustainable/green town. Thank you for you influence and positivity on society.
Now this is actually a channel worth subsribing to instead of those cheap scapes who think there cool by having screechy voices and advertisements saying SUBSCRIBE.
My My My such potty mouths, thats ok get it out of your system, they don't let you talk shit on other sites, they are very linient here which is fuckin'cool,but you shouldn,t bring religion in to anything, it is a persons right to there own beliefs and should not be condoned.

; jusst saying. i live here; I LIVE IN GREENSBURG. I Always Have; Andd Always WIll..andd glad to say; todayy is the 3rd year anniversary of it striking. we have had been rebuilding, our BRAND NEW School will be finished in 3 months; and most everybody has a house again; we all know that it'll take forever though. to replant all the trees; andd take forever to honestly clean it up; we still have many many, things to fix, and to rebuild, and to make whole again.

No- you're wrong. Nature's forces came together just so, and a tornado formed, and a town was in its path, and that town was struck and nearly entirely wiped out. It had nothing to do with the people, whom YOU have no right to judge.

@latinguy67 you're a stupid ignorant fool who needs to wake up and realize that those were not bad horrible people who got smited by some all mighty god! you are a self centered jack ass who has no right to judge anyone because that is not your job. if anyone is evil it's you for being such a closed minded fool.

@latinguy67 um yeah. i've been through tornadoes before and i respect them. i live in texas so it's nothing new. what i say and what i think does not cause forces of nature and if it did i'd make one would suck your ass up so fast it'd make your head spin. until you learn just how terrible a tornado can be and learn that "god" doesn't make them then you should keep your comments to yourself. grow up and gain some maturity.

A place "where our values were born". Where people "go to church".
Many religous quacks said Katrina happened due to faulty morals on the part of New Orleans.
With that logic, it becomes completely obvious to me that this horrible tornado happened because God Hates Christians. Fred Phelps is still living so we ain't seen nothing yet.

ffjsb 1 year ago
@apatte4975 While there are schools of thinking to both sides, there is an underlying truth to the statement that God is control of what occurs in nature. While its hard to understand WHY God would allow something like this, an EF5 tornado in the middle of the night, we've gotta keep believing that God knows what He is doing is good. He does NOTHING that is not for our own good. And while the devastation is dramatic and sad, Greensburg has rebuilt itself better than ever&God blessed them thru it
statboy08 1 year ago
@statboy08 Religious or not, one with an open-mind should be able to make sense of both theories while they're still theories.
There is no Science vs God, because Science and God do not make each other invalid ideas.
Why would God let this happen? Observe the scientific reason it happened. Weather goes through cause and effect. What caused the storm and what specifically caused it to be so huge? The difference may be a small, overlooekd detail that eventrually tracks to something else. =)
Axxidous 1 year ago
@statboy08 I have a theory for the religious who want to know why God let this happen. First, I already explained the cause and effect chain. It can back track pretty far leading to something completely unrelated. Even multiple things. Something went wrong maybe?
But then it was set up to happen through the process of nature and reality like anything else. How could the fuse be allowed to happen when it'd lead to this and maybe other things?
Perhaps true inspiration to better our world.

You guys are so lucky to live there, and should be proud because you make it what it is. Wow. Its nice to know good people , good communities, and faith to persevere still exist :) Very inspiring !
