This video available on my "Extreme Tornado DVD" available on eBay!

Sep 16, 2006 in South Dakota we were within 50-100 yards of two F2 tornadoes. Tree debris was falling all around us, the overpass we had just filmed from was hit and a farm house (hopefully vacant) was blown into the air across the field from us. Hopefully no one was hurt, we stayed to the south side of the storm and remained safe!

  • It looks like a sister but actually it is a TV antenna tower. It almost got hit! I talked to the station KELOLAND in Sioux Falls, SD and their competition were almost knocked off the air by this tornado. The antenna is 1000' high so it acts as a measuring stick when the tornado gets close to it. The tornado was about a 1000' feet high as well.

  • 50 to 100 yards? Don't think so that looked like around 200 - 300 yards.

  • way more than 50-100 yards

  • Great video, but like the others, I do question the distance at the tornado's closest pass to your location. Unless it happens in a later portion of the video that isn't on YouTube. I thought you was going to have a "Reed Timmer" like video when I saw the description and information. Still a good vid, and yes you were close, just not 50 to 100 yards in any part of this video I just watched. Good job on keeping a steady camera too. No violent shaking or losing focus.

  • The music is a bit much

  • looks like about a half a mile away...

  • This happend on my birthday sweet!!!
