[InspiredTalent84]

To the guy who said..."My Car" during the Andover Tornado, shouldn't u be worried about ur freakin life, I mean come on now, what is more important ur life or ur stinkin car, I'd say ur life is more important at this point.. Duh.. Clueless..!!

[carinsurancearticle]

thats great video

[MIKCURIE]

great vid.......i did find it a bit tough reading the red annotations though

[AngryAtTechnology75]

does part 2 have the same director and actors, i hate when they change shit up.. will it be a tidal wave or something.. ?

[RyanStrauchOfficial]

So glad my wife no longer lives in Kansas lol

[tornadochaser14]

dude or dudet at 3 minutes... you have balls of steel

[hawkfan2300]

I remember covering the Parkersburg Tornado and somehow I knew it was on the ground

[dad325]

lol the video has 33,444 views. Nice video though :D

[Josh3B]

Let's see part 2 now!!!!

[birdrack]

@Josh3B Happy to say it is approaching the halfway point! I'll be honest, it wasnt going to be completed, but then i graduated a little earlier than I thought I would, so Part 2 will be out in about a week.

[shredtastic100]

3:00-3:25 would make a great car insurance commercial! The video would like pause after 3:25 and say "Got good car insurance?" and take off from there. LOL! Great videos, finally not one dealing with the May 3rd,1999 F5! Those videos are every where and I've seen them all.

[ferrarimike23]

I don't see how you could sit on the second story of an apartment building video tapeing an f5 coming in your direction and not shit yourself

If I even see a tornado moving in the opposite direction of me I shitmyself

The guy below me is a dumbass

[Puppehland]

why would 4 people dilike this? im a big fan of disasters so much that i made up a story of a huge contenent called Puppyland and there are many disasters. i hope in the year 2015 the story comes true. i hope

[iheartbirds54]

I've been through and EF5 tornado. It killed a lot of ppl I knew including 2 of my cousins.

[hahaman2189]

My Car!!! 2:55

[lovetocraft33]

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[wesleyvale1]

That siren is really eerie, gives ya goosebumps

[melmom50]

The houses around 4:30 should be very thankful

[rejectofsoul24]

lol, in the beginning,"Focus. Focus. Ah, there we are, HOLY SHIT! LOOK AT THAT TORNADO!!".

[teenmod12]

iv been threw an F2 tornado in rockland count ny. it was eventful

[ShadowAlex]

The Andover KS Tornado is probably the most WELL known F5 and probably the most documented.

[TheMightykaz]

@ShadowAlex Even more than the Moore, OKC tornado on may 3rd 1999?

[ShadowAlex]

@TheMightykaz

don't know about that but w/o a doubt The Andover Tornado is among the most famous ones.

[xxDEATHKILLERxx]

Wait, what's the diffrence between an EF tonado and an F tornado, I though they were the same

[LetsDoIt4Johnny1]

@xxDEATHKILLERxx The Fujita (F) Scale was Dr. Fujita's original scale that went from F0 all the way up to F12 (Mach I). It was based on the Beaufort Scale for wind speed and used damage analysis to estimate the wind speed. The Enhanced Fujita (EF) Scale has been in use since 2007 and uses more sophisticated engineering data (assigning structures values for strength of 1-12) that takes into account the sturdiness of the destroyed structures when estimating wind speed. It goes from EF0 to EF5.

[Imralu]

1:14-1:30

"It's a tornado.

Look at it.

Get downstairs.

That's fantastic"

Lol. So calm.

[TheMaliciousStorm]

@Imralu Lol I know I wouldn't be that calm. My parents would be moving slowly, and I'd be like OMG LOOK TORNADO! MOVE MOVE MOVE! Lol.

[LetsDoIt4Johnny1]

Wow, I hadn't seen that PA footage since I was a kid...and that McConnell AFB siren is the creepiest I've ever heard. I had never seen the Hesston F5. Was hoping to find some footage of the 1976 Jordan, IA F5, which I've never seen more than a few seconds of (Dr. Fujita said it was the most intense storm he'd ever observed). I've still never seen the 1982 Broken Bow, OK F5 either. And I'll gladly gobble up any footage I see of the Jarrell, TX F5 in 1997.

[birdrack]

@LetsDoIt4Johnny1 Yes! The Jarrell Tornado is one of my all time favorites when it comes to hard to find footage. I remember a while ago in the late 90's(i had to have been like 7 or 8), there was a TLC documentary on TV, and they showed this amazing footage of the tornado that referred to the indian legend of the Dead Man Walking. I could never find that documentary or the footage, but i have been able to find some good chase video. Look for some cool footage in part 2!

[Markers428]

Excuse me but the Parkersburg Iowa Tornado wa sone of the MORE WELL KNOWN F5's.

[padude64]

Wheatland Pa tornado on Friday May 31, 1985 was an F-5

[81pluto]

Andover Kansas tornado was an f-4 not f-5.

[aghinem]

@81pluto

The Andover Kansas tornado was rated an F5 after they accessed the level of damage it did. Remember, the F-scale is based on damage it produces with estimated wind speeds; not the size of the tornado.

[KitKat5533]

mmmmm...........XD

[itb222]

mcconell afb video is still the best, especially uncensored which you tube got rid of.

[CROUELLETTE]

you forgot to show the birmingham tornado in 1989 that was a f5 and it was a deadly tornado and the f5 in 1999 which was probably a f6 that hit oklahoma that was a huge tornado

[Felixg1979]

@CROUELLETTE The one in moore oklahoma,yep it was pretty damn huge. Im actually surprised my uncle actually made it out it out alive.

[CROUELLETTE]

yo that chandler one was pretty bad in minnesota they dont usually get strong tornadoes I think a camp had one two years ago it was a f3 though, the andover one was even worse it hit a pretty populated area it started weak thn got huge when it hit the base

[baboon302]

they wouldnt have gone off

[roguegirl29]

The Andover Tornado had narrowly missed hitting two nuclear warheads (that's scary!)

[MzGabbieNuNu]

I remember listening to the weather report as Chandler,MN was getting slammed by that nasty F5. Feeling really bad for all those who were in its path and hoping everyone would be okay.

[lakeerie90s]

I remember the Heston one in mid-March 1990 because at that time there was a late winter surge of record-breaking warm air over the eastern US, while cold air was banked up further west.

[hevok2009]

wow - 4:38 - 5:01 took less than a minute to rip this home to shreds - that's insane.

[keonisan]

this is precisely why i don't understand why people still build houses out of wood in tornado alley.

[shellback963]

At 3:01, this tornado was probably a f3 cat. as it passed the base jumped in strength to an F5 cat and destroyed adove,r some other footage on YT you can see the aftermath of the base. It was not

f5 damage. But, it is said that they had several bombers on the runway with nukes on board, which the Tndo. missed.

[dragonridley]

I have heard that it fluctuated between F2 and F3 and reached F4 strength as it left the base. It didn't reach F5 until it hit Andover 20 minutes later.

[padude64]

The second and 3rd tornadoes were in Wheatland Pennsylvania in the western part of Pa

[thegirl44]

Those young fellows in Andover are damn lucky that funnel didn't decide to change direction.

[jkr785]

Nice vid. And the Hesston footage is some of my favorite of all time.

[themadrapper101]

My Caaaor !!

[aha45]

Nice video! A tv show would have strung this footage out for an hour

[onfoote]

Nice but the Andover nado is one of the top 5 of all time as far as its infamy. Certainly not a lesser known one. Havent see that Heston footage in forever though, thanks.

[ludakrook911]

damn

[fourshorty1]

cool
