[damez123]

[raulnahamahl]

@damez123 Name is Scott Richards, it hit while I was working at the swimming pool

[damez123]

@raulnahamahl Damn. I guess your lucky you weren't injured or anything.

[karliemoore89]

Was the yatch club or yatchs in the bay affected by this? I know some one up there and they are not answering their phone.

[thetwisted2007]

Cool. I used to live here. Nice film! We heard about this in the papers down here in Perth, glad to see someone filmed it. Definitely a tornado.

[kaanhati]

umm dude....do you know the what is a hurricane? lol

[monzbabe]

I was one of the four huddled in the corner, I can honestly say that we are very lucky no one was hurt. Thank you too the two brave boys, what heros! xx

[OCD2COD]

@monzbabe Hilarious comment in an otherwise scary vid.

[isfckingevil]

Couldn't you keep the camera still for awhile longer? We want to see how cool the middle of a tornado looks, not some chicks hair! It's extremely inconsiderate of you.

[salvadory]

absolutely amazing footage- amazing!!!!!!!!!!! get this on us television immediately

[PuncHerThroat]

wooohoooo !!!!!! yeeeehaaaaaaa

[sexiejessie23]

I had one of these hit my street in Kalgoorlie, did so much damage For 2 blocks then vanished! It took 5 months to fix my house :/

[vampheric]

[clarthepio]

HAHAHA its the new phrase from now on!!!

"Fuck My Dad"

[InternetgeekAndeet]

* FUCK MY DAD * <--- HAHAH

[InternetgeekAndeet]

i have a question.. why are you at the pools in cyclone weather

[raulnahamahl]

@InternetgeekAndeet The cyclone was over 24 hours away near Broome, it still hasn't passed us today. this was not a cyclone this was a freak hurricane

[InternetgeekAndeet]

@raulnahamahl the cyclone's still causing all the cloud cover anyways it went past us and now is near you :D

[SuperBullygirl]

@raulnahamahl same thing mate, it was a cyclone

[RedDogPhoto]

@SuperBullygirl Are you saying what you just saw was a cyclone?

[SuperBullygirl]

@RedDogPhoto no, it was spawned off a cyclone

that was a tornado

[dampierjohn1]

Check out the comments on the video labelled "Scary, Tornado and Cyclone Karratha Western Australia "

[raulnahamahl]

I am the original filmer of this footage. None of us were hurt during the tornado. When it hit, four of us huddled in a corner just clinging to each other waiting for it to pass. Huge pieces of tin were flying past us about a meter away. We are all very shaken after the experience. We have never had a tornado in this town ever, and all I can say is "FUCK MY DAD!" XD, I hope everyone else that got stuck in the tornado is okay.

[dampierjohn1]

you must feel extremely relieved and lucky to have not been hurt after seeing all the damage to the rest of the town. Very lucky to have shot the video and not get hurt. Well done to have kept on filming through it all. The construction site across from the swimming pool lost whole doors off of the dongas and they are nowhere to be found, a couple of 4WD's were flipped and big heavy cleanaway bins were moved like plastic wheely bins to give you an idea of the force of this freak storm.

[muntedandscum]

@raulnahamahl Great job getting the footage. I was stuck in my ute getting smashed at the Woolies servo. Of course it was also the one time I leave my phone at home... Glad someone got the footage as even with the obvious damage it was really hard to explain to people how sudden and intense it was. Glad you were all OK.

[Cantelo16]

this should be sent to the news. They would crave something like this

[Matetsiman]

i wish i could have beeeeeeeen there! damn me for living in Nickol on the other side of town.

[lahbl]

Lol, you cunts deserve it.

[elitephotohedland]

@lahbl yeah ok ass clown.. not really funny

[lahbl]

@elitephotohedland U mad bro?

It's the truth, you're all faggots up there.

[bob1daz]

I was at the Woolies servo in the middle of the whole thing lost windows out of my car, watch an ice machine get picked up an thrown like it was nothing then tried to move it with my car in 4wd couldn't budge it, helped a father get his daughter who had all the car windows explode into her while she was still in the car, that was some scary shit, saw sheets of tin being ripped from buildings like someone pulling sheets of paper off a note book

[PilbaraPrincess1980]

@bob1daz

Hi bob, im the cashier @ Woolies Servo. i would like 2 thank you for your help with everything. And i hope you will come back in2 the store & let us know how u are..

If u were @ Woolies servo @ the time of the Tornado, pls let me know how you all r doing, just 4 my own piece of mind. Thank you all again 4 ur patience in this crisis.& a HUGE thank you 2 the customers, who with BOB, assisted other customers. Thank you :o)

[PilbaraPrincess1980]

@PilbaraPrincess1980 Im very shaken up & would like 2 make sure everyone else r ok.To me having people in their cars & no warning, was very scarey.I felt useless. Seeing the ice freezer fly past the window like an Esky. Shocking!

So please if U or some1 u know was in the Woolies Servo, pls let me know how ur all doing

[muntedandscum]

@PilbaraPrincess1980 - Hi, I was at the Woolies servo, in the white ute at the very end closest to PMG. I was stuck in my car when it hit. Car got pretty beaten up with all windows completely smashed except the windscreen and driver's side window.The car also has panel damage and some pretty major bits of glass embedded in the car. I was peppered with glass and debris but only got a couple of scratches. A new pair of undies required though! It is amazing no one was hurt.

[ISAblood]
