When I was a kid living in southern IA, a multiple vortex tornado came through our little town. The next morning we went out and our house was the only one still standing in our entire neighborhood. Most of the houses were just a tangled pile of boards and shingles topped with cars, trees, and who knows what else. It was the scariest thing I've ever been through.

This was a good video until I heard Ogle's voice.

[Bobbyb9331]

that sound would just scare the s##t out of you

[LaconeJo1]

it don't sound like a train, it sounds like a jet.

[BMPmama698]

@LaconeJo1 Actually if you want to get technical about it, tornadoes don't sounds like trains or jets, they sounds like HUGE waterfalls. I've seen my fair share of them as a chaser and I always compare them to the sound of rushing water.

[tornadochaser14]

this should have been ranked an F6

[EKSBEntertainment]

@tornadochaser14 It was 1mph off a F6 Could of possbly been a F6 tho.

[tornadochaser14]

@EKSBEntertainment i agree , just there was SOOO much damage.. shoulda been an F6

[EKSBEntertainment]

@tornadochaser14 Even tho im aussie i was there when i was 9 on that day my god i will never forget it we were like 200feet from the monster as a F5. I'v seen 3 other F5's and EF5s in my life my school and uni paid for my travels. So i'v seen my fair share of tornadoes in my life even ran into a few storm chasers as well.

[EKSBEntertainment]

@EKSBEntertainment I was here in 2011 and saw the record braking 5 EF5 tornadoes or 6 i think.

[tornadochaser14]

@EKSBEntertainment i know whatcha mean i lived in moore i remember it vividally

[coolnick52]

[SpankyNek]

This storm generated the highest wind speed ever recorded by instruments on the face of the planet...well over 300 mph.
