[fireman305]

The music with this video is fairly haunting, given the footage

[bigkev2084]

back in June of 2011 Springfield Mass had an EF3 tornado that tore all the way across to Sturbridge Mass, and ive never seen a sky get so dark and odd colored in my life

I remember watching this on storm chasers stream. Crazy. You can see the path it took on google earth. Its been updated.

[2000lakewood]

wow thats a tornado!

[GreekDJUSArmyVeteran]

Hope that you guys in Joplin are ok now and rebuilding - here in Downers Grove at the end of June 2011 we had an EF1 tornado really a hurricane type storm that brewed through northern illinois..

[robinb4life]

Was labeled as an EF-5 afterwards right?

[dragonridley]

@robinb4life

Yes, this was rated EF5.

[skylilly1]

and to think people are dying while this footage is playing out, I can't even imagine the horror. It must have been scary as hell!

[kgracielu2005]

yeah iost everything,, even my car, but it was about to break down anyway,, i don't even have any winter clothes,, i do have one lite jacket a neighbor gave me since i was soaking wet , after laying in the rain, her duplex is still there not sure if she will return, but would like to return her jacket at some point

[kgracielu2005]

i will never forget the sound of the wind, or debris hitting me,,i have to stop coming to these sites,, i have to get on with my life,,,all i do is cry,, with memories, and although iam alive,, i cry for the ones that arent,,

[Dusty696969]

@kgracielu2005 Did you lose your home?

[kgracielu2005]

it touched my house at 543pm,, and destroyed it,, nothing left, but me

[KathyBr00tal]

@kgracielu2005 I'll keep you and many other people effected by this disaster in my heart and prayers. I hope you are safe along with your family.

[fuzziruggi]

I suppose some people know everything like Job( not the one you work the name of the man)he thought he had the greatest understanding and later admitted to ask forgiviness for being so hard hearted and was blessed.Do any of you ask for forgiviness or are you too complete and think it is weak? God doesn't send all calmity he is the God of Love.

[kgracielu2005]

oh u guys are on crack,,,the rapture???psst,,,,,god sending a message?? like how to devastate a town??? i almost died in that damn thing, and god, jesus, or rickey bobby (ya know from the movie) but anyway he's just a cult figure,,see how far that gets ya... it got the manson girls a long way...ha ha ha

[jesseadkins187]

@kgracielu2005 LMFAO

[MsAltarEgo]

@jesseadkins187 was that really necessary?

[jesseadkins187]

@MsAltarEgo i was laughing at kgracielu2005 comment settle down...

[midgetmaster234]

THERE WAS NO RAPTURE, BUT GOD DID SEND A MESSAGE!!!!

[Some1Had2SayIt1]

man made

[andrespereyda]

It seems like a country music video. If--- I lived in the Midwest, I would only live there in a geocentric-dome built into the ground.

[Cbotron5000]

@andrespereyda Sounds cool, but by the time you're halfway through buiilding it... a tornado will run through -_-lll

[andrespereyda]

@Cbotron5000 maybe. it's just crazy that they're getting torn up out there.

[LaurenPerkins89]

This video made me cry... its so sad. It is nice though there are stories of hope being reported. People being spared and people being found. I pray for those who are lost may God's grace be with them.

[Cbotron5000]

@LaurenPerkins89 Dude.... this is YOUR God's rapture, tornadoes started saturday.... he's whiddling away the nonbelievers.....

[Ownage32123]

i live in kc johnson and that was scary i could have been one of the people who died... it sucks cuz it was at 5-6 in the morning and they didnt even get a chance to take cover

[louisduloc]

The power of mother nature is something, thanks for the comment

[gitane1976]

Imagine all the papers lost....... we can see clearly in this vid the strenght of the tornado!!!! It's really scary!!!! Good video by the way!!
