At 7 p.m. on Tuesday evening, the Union University campus was devastated by serious tornadic activity, resulting in extensive damage to the facilities. Following a nearly five-hour emergency effort, all students -- including the 13 who were trapped in the fallen rubble -- were rescued. Fifty-one students were taken to the hospital, nine of whom suffered serious injury. By God's providence, no lives were lost. -President Dockery

Music is "Prelude for Time Feelers" by Elvium

  • Hey, Brian, just so you know, you misspelled rescued as "rescused" at 0:53.

    Anyway... Man, it's amazing that no lives were lost with this amount of damage on a college campus. Thank God!

    I liked how you synchronized most of the changes with the music. Too many of these kinds of videos don't do that.
