I survived that tornado, i was 12. my mother, step-dad and i moved directly after, since we didnt own any property there. That was the worst event my life will ever see. even today, it still makes me want to cry and ask, why us? why greensburg? i havent been back since, but im graduating this year and plan to go back soon, but only for a visit. i dont think i would be able to handle seeing what once was beneath what is now.
xXaggiesXx23 - Yeah that's my son and I. Graduation in a tent on the #1 fairway at our golf course on the east edge of town. Our local paper editor took that shot and won some kind of award with it. Just glad to have it to mark the occasion. Thanks for your kind words, we can still use the encouragement in our continuing recovery!
this was on the weather channel! i feel for these people. i went through an ef5 tornado up here in Ohio on June 5th, 2010 last tornado season, it reached anywhere from 200-220 m.p.h. just recently my house got a little damage from an ef1 tornado on April 20th,2011. tornadoes are out for me! ha ha well nice video and stay safe people pf Grennsburg!
man every time i'm seeing images of greensburg, the fact that the tornado went straight to your town still freightens me over and over. Even the images of that day. Good luck to all who survived this tornado and are trying to rebuild your town. I'll hope it will be, 3 years later, already done and you'll never have to experience that again.
i love this video.i went to greensburg in march 2008 and it still needed alot of work and our youth group was so shocked at what all was left to clean up!! God Bless anyone who had to endure a ef5 tornado like that and wow!! When we first got there we started cleaning and there was so much glass in the grounds that the football players couldnt even use the field:( this was such a sad thing to happen but gladly their werent a whole lot of deaths! I cant wait to go back and c it again!! Good luck!
I am deeply touched by your video. I and my family went through this awesome act of nature riding it out in our basement. The closeup picture of the young man graduate hugging his father is my son and I. Although we had to go through this terrible tragedy, we have been so blessed many times and many ways in this past year since the storm. We are all survivors and our town is slowly and surely coming back. We put our trust in God and open ourselves to his guidance and the path is opened to us.
Awsome video. As long as i live, ill never forget everything i saw. I am a volunteer firefighter here in Manhattan KS and i sat and watched the storm on radar and shorty after 945, i was heading down there to help with search and rescue. Nuthing could have prepaired me for what i saw. not only the devistation but the people helping one another just over whelms me and always will. thanks
Nice video. Its still so hard to believe that Greensburg was taken away like that, I have family there and it was such a beautiful town. It will be beautiful again very soon.

After looking at the destruction this tornado caused, it's hard to believe people actually survived. God Bless.
