Unless you chose to come out and actually help pick up, you should not have posted this... I was the foundation next to the house still standing, people like you, were the gawckers...

@superswartzy1 I am sorry for the loss of your house, but glad to see you and your loved ones made it out alright. That was definitely an usually strong tornado for Ohio. While I did not and was not able to help in Wood County, I have previously been in towns that were just destroyed by tornadoes and chose to help search for victims. I do not know if you looked at any of my other videos, but I am a storm chaser. I documented the damage in one drive through town and was in nobodys way.

@superswartzy1 I hope the recovery for your family is coming along well. I know these things have a tendency to drag out for months and possibly years when you get insurance companies involved, etc. While I have never personally lost property to a tornado, it is something that sticks in the back of my mind as a possibility living here in the middle of Tornado Alley. Tornadoes turn peoples lives upside down, and I've seen it first hand a number of times.

@superswartzy1 By the way, if you have not done so yet, I would highly suggest purchasing a NOAA Weather Radio for your home. They can save your life in situations like these.

@superswartzy1 - this video was taken 20 days after the event happened...how is that being a gawcker? You are way too sensitive and IMO are just another sad youtuber looking to spread pointless hate around. If he was there filming you laying in a pile of rubble moments after it happened, then you could be upset. Grow up.

@bholcomb14 aren't you real cute.. My mom is disabled and we had a police scanner that saved our life, my dad and mom as well as myself don't want and don't need your pathetic advice, your house get hit? I will say this, thank you for filming after cleanup

@superswartzy1

First of hall glad you made it through the tornado after losing your house completely. I live in Streator, illinois and let me tell you. we had plenty of people filming after our tornado on 6/5. get used to it. He didn't do anything wrong. There were plenty of people i would've liked to get after for filming etc, but thats the way society is now days.
