Dust Devil Blows Away Campsite - Wildest Dreams - BBC One

[@DuBistAhnungslos]

@shkljg The most not. they can reach speed of a heavy storm, but the dangerous thing is just the stuff flying around that can hit you. the wind itself is harmless. the most dust devils aren`t that powerful, so there`s no reason to be afraid. I love them. greetings

[@davidlondon2810]

I drove through one yesterday in southern Spain. The car rocked slightly and that was it.

[@RentTheSpokeMan]

"An absolute trail of devestation".. hmm slightely over dramatic perhaps?

[@TrickIcarus]

Tornado in training

[@kakatuibakalol3154]

8 years and still no comments....i guess memes weren't as relevent back then

[@jrfan07]

lol her pony tail got sucked up straight

[@OrdinisChao]

I've seen dust devils in Las Vegas blow billboards across the highway. They can get pretty powerful.

[@Bigboy5650]

That,s effed up.I live in the eastern part of the US and I,ve seen one in the parking lot of a farmer,s market.It was a very warm and calm day and all of a sudden I saw a column of swirling rubbish 200 hundred feet high.It was brilliant.

[@gaminawulfsdottir3253]

I rode my motorcycle through a dust devil in Colorado. I watched it coming; our paths converged where it crossed the highway.

[@QuicksilverdotFX]

@systemaddictshock Although most would wear white to reflect heat however with darker colors, heat doesn't penetrate that deep. Black may be hot on surface but cool on the inside. White may be cool on surface but warm on the inside. Tan or tan-ish clothes is best of both worlds.

[@gaminawulfsdottir3253]

If he thinks that's "an absolute trail of devastation," he's never seen the aftermath of a tornado. Or maybe he's just prone to hyperbole.

[@ems7623]

He probably came down from the excitement of it all slightly after that footage. But I do agree with you. By the way, I notice your name is Icelandic. I hope you all are doing alright in this pandemic year.

[@gaminawulfsdottir3253]

@@ems7623 Thank you for the kind words!

[@richeyrich]

...it left a trail of devastation....hahaha. Uh, not exactly...they're tents.

[@movitmovit]

i've seen several similarly sized dust devils while driving around the US southwest. they were always blowing through the scrub so i had no idea that they could lift tents. i have a little more respect for their power now.

[@TyphoonAnimator]

Wow that’s one strong dust devil

[@AlbertaGamer]

A dust devil in southern Alberta destroyed several well-built bungalows back in the 1980's.

[@gaislima-db4nc]

Só o barulho já da medo e pânico

[@Cchrisbud813]

While it's true that real tornadoes over deserts are sometimes called dust devils, this was a true dust devil; these are not related to true tornadoes. However, this dust devil was pretty strong, nonetheless.

[@localvic]

@ 0:11 You can see the dust devil starts where the lady is standing.

[@Fezztecfilms]

Oh my god!! 0:11 if I was that poor girl, I wouldve blown away! it's amazing how she wasn't sucked up, you can see her hair go straight up, thats only a small tornado but it looks so strong!

[@gaminawulfsdottir3253]

It's not a tornado.

[@TBSrocks1]

Cherilyn is my teacher. shes taught me lot... shes amazing

[@Sohorolex]

That really is the most amazing footage i've ever seen! They are soooooo lucky to be alive, can't wait to see the show.

[@caseyp8173]

I wish I could see a Gustnado. Besides, where could you find them anywhere in the United States?

[@tannerabel6580]

Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Navada, Utah, California..

[@QuicksilverdotFX]

@systemaddictshock Cool, avoiding the question. You obviously do not know how it is. I'm an archeologist and have been in Sahara desert for 3 months straight. No a/c, no heater, no nothing. I was just like you thinking white is the best. I tried tan, tried black, tried gray. I found tan to be the best. Feels the best, actually. Thanks for asking.

[@vicariousjojoe]

That is so devastating.

[@ilikecookies1787]

joe DUD ITS NO WHERE DEVESTATING

[@gaminawulfsdottir3253]

LOL

[@yodzzz]

Cool!! I'll be watching. Big up Shan. x

[@anthonypalermo8816]

Exciting!

[@VF1Skullangel]

Owned!

[@greeleykid]

a 4 year old can lift a tent, i was just trying to express how unimpressed i was with it lol

[@gaislima-db4nc]

Ui mim da um medo dessas coisas estranhas a natureza é linda mais muitas vezes perigosa e mortal

[@hellofromUSA062]

No no..mother NATURE is in charge!!!

[@HueyLewisRocks]

Dust devils are immune to Camera magic plus she drew the aggro and nearly got them wiped.

[@douro20]

@809380 Not at all. Dust devils in the desert can have 50-60mph winds in them.

[@ilikecookies1787]

1 there very rare to get that speed 2 there still not dangerous

[@justinharris5195]

Ilike Cookies yes they’re dangerous, you can get sand in your eyes, air born diseases, a strong dust devil can pick up and throw you, not to mention all the debris they can pick up and bombard you with.

[@Hells2TheYea]

How can she run when she has no idea which way? That thing just stops right on top of her.

[@greeleykid]

wow..it lifted TENTS! cause it takes a lot to do that...

[@gaminawulfsdottir3253]

LOL

[@foreveryoungjay_]

thumbs up if you are randomly just surfing thruogh twsiters videos

[@haydenbartlett7556]

jeez thats a good one

[@noeswreslingentertamint2098]

[@ilikecookies1787]

noeswresling entertamint OF COURSE THEY LIVED

[@systemaddictshock]

@QuicksilverdotFX you go out into the desert...about 115F or 46C with dark colors. Let me know how it feels.

[@weicao8680]

Oh my God it’s a dust devil

[@craiger2399]

Two tents turned over: "an absolute trail of devastation". You've not left much headroom for the description of actual disasters, have you?

[@daleboyrdm]

that was cool.

[@TheNotorious_BIZ]

yo that lady was INNN it

[@craigcraig1177]

Mother nature wants to be part of the group

[@pFaVT0kNN42WZYWYzSDXI1lmDfRuG]

Does anybody know the song that plays in the ad for this show??

[@lucyth2]

my dad stood in one of those :)

[@yoda1716]

Man it’s been 11 years and nobody has commented

[@systemaddictshock]

@QuicksilverdotFX not in my experience. I live in the Sonoran desert.

[@squirrel1612]

Does anybody know how I can watch the last episode of this?

[@WyattShipp]

@HueyLewisRocks i got a snow devil on film

[@Dvoracekmara]

Wow!

[@nekochan1987]

Dang that poor gal 10 seconds in gets smashed by it! Guess that'll be a tale to tell the kids, but still that's nature for you. It'll spot you and then thinks 'okay I am gonna have a bit of fun with this lot' LOL But still by the looks of things no one was seriously hurt, thankfully.

[@BeatzbyKing]

it knocked her over ay? thats so good i want to run into a big dust devil lol

[@MarkCrowtherTheTester]

Cool. They hould have tanked it and see what it dropped ;p

[@Euph_-v-]

He'll be an EF-5 someday.

[@809380]

Is this dust devil a fake ?

[@caseyp8173]

Oh, I forgot, even though the Gustnado is considered a weak type of tornado, how many people does it kill?

[@ilikecookies1787]

Casey P kills none

[@chrissinatra1217]

“Cataclysmic” “devastation” It was an F5 dust devil.

[@stickmanpwner64]

Take that campers! No free kills for you!

[@ems7623]

Oh, BBC, we love you, but you dont know what "devastating" weather really is.

[@systemaddictshock]

@QuicksilverdotFX most evident that they wear layers of clothing to insulate them from the elements.

[@ericascali5427]

Bruttissimo. E

[@RazDaz2000]

.......... HEY DAD WHERE DID YOU PUT MY DROID PHONE

[@BillyNoMates1974]

nature claims it as a no camping zone

[@tomhuggs3]

Dust devils are weak

[@QuicksilverdotFX]

@systemaddictshock That is not what i asked. I asked about DARK colors not layers of clothing.

[@magnetic._socool]

0:10 oof

[@truthspreader3109]

What if the dust devil picked up a scorpion they dropped it in one of their shirts...

[@systemaddictshock]

@QuicksilverdotFX You're not an archaeologist. If you were, then you would be able to spell your profession correctly and detail which area of study. However, I do agree that tan or "khaki" works the best in desert climate not a dark olive drab color like what these guys are wearing. The thing about the Sahara, its dry climate. if wind more than 3m/s is present, then it wouldn't matter as long as clothing is loose fitting and able to radiate heat. Now try stagnate air, guaranteed fish fry!

[@QuicksilverdotFX]

@systemaddictshock Good for you? Children don't notice those things. Explain why people that travels through desert wears dark colors. Hell, you can even google it. It's a known thing ever since human kind has lived or traveled through the desert.

[@junta2000]

Omg

[@greeleykid]

@xxcurnuxx i would love to see a 4 year old throw any tent 60 feet, wind resistance alone would prevent it from happening...maybe on the moon?

[@AurisDJ]

@Fezztecfilms oh its a tornado i tought its a dust devil....

[@robertgift]

Poor job of capturing this, or poor job of editing. I'd rather see the dustdevil.

[@megs4000]

Dude I think weren't in Africa anymore!

[@tomhuggs3]

i mean like weak at throwing things

[@Thelaid1]

jaja unlucky

[@aiden6354]

E

[@systemaddictshock]

ok they're in the desert wearing dark colors...whats wrong here?

[@QuicksilverdotFX]

@systemaddictshock This isn't a problem. The subject wasn't my profession. If it was the subject, I would of course give something. I was giving you REASON for being in Sahara desert. Stop trying to fix your inferiority complex.

[@systemaddictshock]

@QuicksilverdotFX Here's the problem. You claim to be an Archaeologist with experience in the field. You referenced being in the Sahara Desert to establish credibility. However, you failed to present evidence. If I am going to correct somebody with research, I better damn well present my evidence. This is academics 101 and should be easy to you, yah grave robber (thats an ad hominem by me in case you forgot). I'll belittle you all day if you want.
