  • wooo.. so noisy people... and wooooow was that tornado? my god.

  • I think all the white people got sucked up in the twista...?

  • supercrack smoke.....ummm thats supid.. lol they would most likely accept you .. just saying

  • i always wondered if i could go to shaw for free for being white, i could pull the race card and be like WTF you aint lettin a white person go to college here?! and if they dont i could sue them for discrimination and get paid, hahaha, naw for real though i might try this

  • Turn the audio off and watch this video again...

    While you are watching it keep saying to yourself :

    "A Watermelon truck just crashed into a BBQ truck, a Watermelon truck just crashed into a BBQ truck".

    It's much funnier...and makes more sense that way.

    ****No negative racial stereotyping was intended in the making of this comment***

    Just sayin'

  • At first, I didn't think you were actually in it. After seeing the aftermarth, I believe at least one building took a direct hit. This is about as raw as it gets. Most people wouldn't be able to get footage like that, because security, etc... would be keeping people away from the damaged buildilngs.

  • if he was in the tornado.. he would have been dead in an instant lol

  • you all some stupid motherfucers is that not a university did they not teach you fucking idiots not to run out in to that shit,

  • @1:10 WHAT A F***ING IDIOT!!!!!

  • My big sister goes to Shaw University, I was so happy that she was not in that tornado, they are still rebuilding it today

  • Sthres a tornado outside!! Quick, get the camcorder!

  • I remember I was at Shaw U back in 2005, I am glad every one is safe and wasn't harm! But um the next time leave the footage to the professionals please....I don't think anyone parents would feel great knowing their child tried to be a news caster following a tornado! But good job guys! It bought back memories of sneaking into the male dorm rooms and going into the cafeteria....(tears)

  • One word.... transfer

  • @BigBubba Hahaahaha yuppp the black guy some how dies right!!! lol Anyway stay safe lmfao

  • lolz i saw trash can rolling along the ground

  • While they panicking and shiit... Im busy chillen at tos... But that tornado was wiiiild craazzy

  • Out of all the destruction in my hometown, Shaw/S.E. Raleigh and the Stonybrook areas affected me the most. I was supposed to facilitate a workshop the following weekend at Shaw U and of course it was canceled, but I can't imagine a university being shut down for the remainder like that. You guys stay strong!

  • i was just at shaw today and yes it is bad but im going to make sure i do something to help clean up or raise $!

  • I'm praying for this school. I found out about this incident through twitter on HBCU Buzz. I'm also a student at an HBCU, Philander Smith College in Arkansas. I see all of the damage the tornadoes have caused your school. We had bad weather before it went east. I thank God that the students are still alive. That was nothing but the grace of God. Students of ShawU, you should all thank God that He spared you all's lives...That means that He has a great purpose for ya'll lives. ShawU, God Bless.

  • Praying for NC and Shaw University

  • Comment removed

  • Wow! I knew the destruction was bad but I didn't know it was like this! I'm glad everyone made it through safely. I graduated from Elizabeth City State so I'm no stranger to bad weather. My prayers and thoughts go out to all Shaw U students and everyone else effected by the storm.

  • This is just entertaining..best of luck to you all.

  • your in our thoughts and prayers from your neighbors down the street at North Carolina State University

  • Much Prayers from South Carolina State University #HBCU

  • I just think its a sad day when someone can come look at a video of something like this and all they can do it criticize and talk about how uneducated he sounds... people are something else...

  • @beautyjbfnc geez, people don't understand ACCENTS, and all of sudden they label people. disgusting how ignorant people are.

  • @rmpbklyn ignorance IS THE WORD most fitting, but what comes around goes around, hopefully ppl can grow out of immaturity and ignorance so they can actually become vital in a society... (oh yeaaa it goes further than this video) ignorance is the worse disease anyone can have. my point taken! thanks for your post!

  • Glad everyone was safe. Scary as heck, though. Btdt.

  • My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Shaw U campus, much love from Fayetteville State University

  • Dear SHAW U I DIFFENTLY FEEL YOUR PAIN...That happen at UNION...KEEP YOUR HEADS UP

  • From Howard University, we are keeping all people at Shaw University and within the community in our prayers. We commend the person who posted this video to help raise attention to the destruction that took place. Hopefully all students are alright.

  • Wow this is tragic. My Prayers are with the Shaw family from a UNCG Alum.

  • @auntada Thank you for posting the information of where donations can be sent. I and several other HBCU alum are ready to assist as we can.

  • As a fellow Shaw Bear and future alum, this was really a sad for all us, especially those who are graduatin in a couple of weeks. Never though my/our senior year would end like this but hey, everything happens for a reason NOW 2 YOU ALL MAKING THESE RACIAL SLURS ABOUT MY SCHOOL AND THE PEOPLE, THAT REALLY SHOWS HOW IGNORANT AND SHALLOW YOU ARE. LET SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN TO YOU AND THEN YOU WILL SEE HOW WE FEEL BUT UNTIL THEN KEEP YOUR MOUTH OFF OF SHAW UNIVERSITY....WE ARE STILL THE FIRST!!

  • this is truly tragic... since i went to tsu and now go to csu, ima speak for both schools... hope that things can get bac to the way it was for yal... HBCU PRIDE.. much love from Tennessee State University and Central State University

  • It makes my heart ache to hear about and see the footage. It looks so familiar. My dorm and much of my campus was severely damaged/destroyed in a tornado at Union University in '08, and I remember the devastation and loss being painful--yet no one was killed, and I praise the LORD that no one died at Shaw! He had y'all in His mighty hand, stronger than any tornado. May your community grow stronger and closer as you overcome this tragedy. You've got life to live--a precious thing!

  • LOL. "i'm standing right in the middle of a tornado! holy shit!"

  • WOW!! Thank God that this didn't happen during the school week. There's no telling how many people would've been in that Student Center and on campus. I pray that Shaw gets back on it's feet by the fall 2011 semester.

    As for those of you asking why the brotha is outside, a tornado spawn from a supercell storm is usually the last part of the storm. The tornado is at the tail end of the storm. Unless it's another storm behind it, the threat is usually over after the tornado passes.

  • @mdm9690 by the way he spoke after a tornado? he is uneducated? your serious? let me tell you something some people have a way of pick it up and putting it down, if we ever got on the phone You would think that I was the most educated person in the world that doesn't mean that when I get with my friends I am going to still talk that same way, and especially in a situation like that!!!!! #logic

  • @beautyjbfnc Sorry to inform you, no. Just by that paragraph. :) #nottwitter

  • @mdm9690 quite the contrary, but I feel you though!

  • @mdm9690 He was devastated, obviously...Let's look at the bigger picture here. The tornado.

  • @SingNPraiz13 looks like he was having fun making him a video for some youtube hits.

  • @mdm9690 Sounds to me like the adrenaline was running high. I can say this, having had to hunker down several times to protect myself from a tornado, both in my home in TX and at my school in OK. I know what it's like to be running around outside, dazed, after a tornado has gone over.

  • Sending Love from Alabama State. Hope everything works out for you guys!!

  • Shou tout to all the students that raised their hands to volunteer when the officer asked if anyone wanted to help him out!!! You all should be commended!!! Way to step up for your fellow students and your school!!!

  • He did a great job filming...brave of him to go out there in the "Slight aftermath" of the tornado. If it wasnt good, there would not have been this many views! To dear Old Shaw U..this is just a reason to get upgraded....Let's GO! Shaw U Pride!

  • I hope everyone is okay. Everyone appeared shaken up but it looked like the tornado came pretty damn close. Not bad camera work for someone shaken up. Lots of damage.

  • Alcorn State University is praying for you guys! Keep your spirits up fellow HBCU!

  • My thoughts are with you guys from an NCCU student

  • Love, Prayers, & thoughts from the AKAs Virginia Wesleyan College.

  • praying for you all @ LC

  • Our Thoughts and Prayers from North Carolina Central Univ.

  • You're in our thoughts and prayers, guys! Love, me.

  • My prayers go out to my fellow HBCU.....Norfolk State was and is still praying for you!!! You'll bounce back even stronger than you were before...

  • Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Raleigh.

  • .itruly hope this qet to somebody so they can help out ! ILOVE MY SCHOOL ; things will never be the same !

  • my question is if the school is already close to bankruptcy anyways, what will this do for the financial status of the university???

  • @mayhembomber the school was not closed where did you hear that from?

  • Much prayers and concern from Jackson State University. Keep your heads up, Shaw U.

  • I don't understand why in the world there always has to be a racist person to come and comment on any video on youtube that happens to have black people in it. y'all are obsessed with black people seems like ignoring our existence would be a more logical tactic of spreading your profound hatred instead of thinking of us all the time. just my opinion! regardless of what anyone thinks of our people we have to push on in adversity, educated the loss, and uplift each other.

  • Thanking God for His mercy that this did not occur on a weekday. Praying that His grace continues as we band together to rebuild!

  • so glad u guys r safe. i do not know what i would do if it was my school. much love from WSSU

  • My prayers are with you all!

  • i have several friends that go to Shaw U and when i heard about the tornado i was devastated but soon relieved to know that nobody was injured or killed my prayers go out to Shaw U i really hope and pray that you all recover from the damages from one HBCU (WSSU) to another much love and prayers.

    -WSSU RAM =)

  • And let's be alittle more honest, Taking into account total living expenses and financial aid, the average net cost of attending Shaw University is $15,124 per year, And I graduated from UF with two degrees and live in NYC thanks, Let's be honest black people freaking out is funny!

  • @butch1280 You're just ignorant.

  • @butch1280 People, this is precisely the type of ignorant white person I keep telling you all about. My speech is always who gives a dayum what you people think about us, and our Universities, everything black is not for white people to understand and most of us couldn't care less about what you all think about us and our institutions of higher education. Most of us went to HBCUs to get away from yall - this message from a Black Architect with a Master's Degree Mista Pastie Face...lol.

  • @butch1280 I'm just as glad to hear that your father died in the hood as I usually am to hear that so many white cops have gotten killed in the line of duty this year. Dey is a God!!!!

  • @butch1280 Fuck off..

  • @butch1280 I'm sorry for your loss and I pray for your ignorance. I guess your just going to ride your "White Card " out until you figure out your true purpose in life.

    JCSU has you in our prayers Shaw U #hbcupride

  • @throatfvcker And on a real note you only went to that school cause its the only one you could get in, Mister Nappy Headed Shoe Shine Boy, lol

  • Why would anyone Like this video?

  • Much love from fellow HBCU alum (NC A&T SU)...prayers go out to you all

  • My prayers go out to you guys.

    -Student from UNCP

  • "This is going on WorldStar...!" got your wish, i guess. Prayers still go out.

  • wow! I go to NCCU and we're only 30 mins away..but we didnt get hit..but I thank God that everyone is safe.. You are all in our prayers here at NCCU <3

  • This building doesnt look structurally sound, he don't need to do nothin like that again

  • Sending prayers to Shaw University.

  • Wow!!! I'm no longer a Shaw student I transfered to NCCU after my freshman year, however I'm saddened by this and had a family member in Fleming at the time. Young man u are insane...however because of you the world knows this story. Shaw is on our prayers and may the first HBCU of the south stand stronger than ever!!! Love your fellow NCCU EAGLE!

  • Grace and mercy...

  • @butch1280 I am not going to comment on the rude things you said above but I can say I am almost positive you did not graduate from a university clearly because the last time I checked Webster says gunna is not a word. Maybe you meant going?? Prayers go out to Shaw University.

  • @erikzdanowicz YOU TRY BEING IN A TORNADO AND LET SEE YOUR YOUR LANGUAGE IS .

  • @denise6333 You obviously didnt read that I was responding to the ignorant commment butch1280 made about the school. Next time make sure you read and understand the comment before you make a response.

  • @butch1280 You are so ignorant lol Do you have a degree? I'm just curious. Perhaps you're working on one currently? What exactly are you doing to better yourself, your community, or your family? Be honest. This school costs $20,000+ a year, I highly doubt we are spending that much money to simply NOT graduate. Trust me. The hate in your heart must be extremely heavy. You should let some of that go before you suffer a heart attack. 

  • I am glad that you all are safe.. I hope that the City of Raleigh helps rebuild the damaged caused by the tornado.. Young man, you should not have gone outside....

  • Issaiah 29:6 The Most High will visit you with earthquakes, whirlwinds (Toranadoes), and raging fires (wild fires are burning in Texas and other states). The Most High, the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob causes storms and other disasters, not mother nature. Repent Israel (so-called Negros, Hispanics, and Indians) or you will be destroyed with the heathen by The Most High. Shalom

  • Thank you God for your hand of mercy.......No injuries or death reported on the Campus!!!!

  • All da way from Oakland Ca class of 2k9 my love and prayers go out 2 Shaw U

  • My older sister goes to shaw university so my prayers are with you all....stay strong

  • I'm praying for the Shaw University community. Fox 2 News in St. Louis, MO showed some of your footage on the midday newscast.

  • When I first watched this video it was only at 300 views and I was worried that ShawU wouldn't get the attention they need because its an HBCU. I'm glad to see the number is up to almost 8,000! My prayers go out to all the ShawU students! I pray that your campus gets restored and better than ever! Keep your heads up Shaw! Much love from NC A&T!

  • i just hope no one is hurt!
