An up close and personal view of the EF-4 tornado that ripped through the heart of Tuscaloosa Alabama on 4/27/11... This video was taken from the University Downs Apartment complex on 15th street... The tornado passed within 100 yards of the complex... a boat from the lake across the street actually landed in the parking lot right next to my apartment
I'm glad to finally see some footage from the Downs! It is the only time in my life that I DIDN'T have my phone on me. I was pretty quickly in flight mode though.

I'm the fella you met on the plane. You're brave, nice footage. I'd still be running.

Ok this video is a little bit different that you guys sound more like you're watching a good sci-fi rather than an E-4 tornado but I guess nearly all of you were able to tell it wasn't coming to hit your own place smack on.
Anyway...Good capture.
