This bank looks like it was made out of recycled paper!! Paper mache? Egg cartons? Bread boxes? Good thing no one leaned their bicycle against the wall it probably would have fallen through!! What happened to intelligent design? Uhhhh.....what does that mean? Uhh??
the houses in America are not strong, that's a fact. while here in the Netherlands are all houses of concrete, while never a tornado or something else
This tornado was an EF5, the strongest and rares category. If one of your concrete houses was hit by the full force this storm it would be completely destroyed.
In this case the worst of the tornado missed and the bank was mostly left standing, though a few of the brick wall collapsed.
you are probably one of the lucky ones as far as the recession goes, but i doubt you can speak for the whole state.
i live just outside atlanta and had a tornado skip over the house i was in and hit the 2 on either side back in '98. i hear the sirens quite often myself.
Wow crazy!! My close friend was hit by that very same tornado. She was going to (and did) get married that next week. They thought they had lost all the bridesmaid's dresses, and her wedding dress, but they found them all. :)
wow that was cool luckily i live in mcminnville tennessee were tornados are rarly seen i had one come down my rode and i was in the ditch scared to death to
I know the feeling. Seems like we are spending more time in our basement lately than in any other part of the house. By the way, I love your user name. XD!!
That's the biggest reason I'd never live in the Midwest. Here in New England, we have all 4 seaosns, hurricanes rarely come up this way. Tornadoes are rare, thank goodness.
in a 2 year time span... 2 f5 tornadoes hit the nation (kansas and iowa).
this piece of footage is an example of why i dont want to live in Oklahoma, Kansas, North Texas, Nebreska, and Iowa. Too many viloent Tornadoes. Im happy to live in a state (Arkansas) were Viloent Tornadoes are rare, but weak tornadoes and F-2 Twisters are quite common (especailly winter and spring).
The tornado was pissed at all the bailouts.

The tornado was only upset the bank was closed as it wished to make a deposit.

no, cuz what if u was in the vault and thron in a body of water...like a big pond or something...that would suck

That would be unlikely. A vault would be a pretty safe place to take shelter.

It's actually very unlikely that you will ever be hit by a tornado, even in Iowa. Something like 1 in 3 million, I think.
