Hella Hail 2011 - Carter Lake, Iowa... August 18th 2011

Just me freaking out with the monster hail storm. Baseball+ sized hail can really mess stuff up!

[@Bunglespice]

Dude, I laughed from the beginning to the end. Forgive me, but your reaction was awesome.

Wouldn't want to be around this guy when something serious was happening.

Before cell phone cameras I rode out a hail storm with softball size hail. It did over $2,000,000,000 in damage in the FT, Worth and surrounding areas. It sounded like a herd of horses running on my roof. Fortunately, I was in the commercial roofing business at that time. All the leaves were striped off of trees. Dead and injured birds were everywhere. Some times mother nature has a dark side and tries to kill you. Great video. Thanks.

[@nebraskafan4889]

Show Cat my dad had a vehicle parked outside during this storm. He had it totaled out and still drives it. 😂

Lesson of the video: avoid glass windows at all cost.

Lesson of the video: If you don't have blinds like rest of the world put security glass at least.

[@BruceSeesall]

You freaking out was NORMAL this is huge loll

[@stephensnell1379]

Hail is never normal if it damages roofs and smashes glass

[@wng689]

One lesson you’ve learned... STAY AWAY FROM WINDOWS IN A HAILSTORM!

[@astrowind2873]

Or get a house that doesn’t have windows everywhere

[@somethingwithbungalows]

If a large explosion happens and you’re near a window, run far away from the window. The shockwave will break the window, and probably break you.

hail storms are a very scary experience, i know how loud pea sized is on my house, and it is very loud but this must be terrifying. hope u never go through that again

[@astrowind2873]

We get like quarter to ping pong ball sized hail every spring through summer

@Judy G. You guys. Yeah, probably a millennial (or younger even), but probably not a great idea to go hang by broken glass when hail is coming in either. A few shards of glass in the eyeball will definitely make you feel alive. :)

[@jessz7428]

Spooky start, that was intense. Why didn't you show the cars? Dang it lol.

[@TheyRiseBand]

The hail impacting the water looks pretty cool.

[@kgrimes842]

I remember living in the mountains and we had a massive hailstorm. Lasted maybe 5 minutes and was almost golf ball size or a little smaller. When the storm was done it looked like we had 4 inches of snow on our patio. Couple cars damaged but nothing like this! That was scary

[@chronically.advocating]

Yeah been through one of those before. Once you hear the sound of baseball to softball sized hail once you'll never forget that sound. I was delivering pizzas in Fish Lake in Chisago County in Minnesota. We got softball and grapefruit sized hail, and that sound OMG the sound it makes. I knew this sound the second I heard it on the video. Needless to say my car was absolutely trashed. I had to drive 18 miles back to work with no windshield, or rear window, only one side window left, and dents so deep you could feel them through the headliner. Hail this big is absolutely insane.

[@JackieBaisa]

That is absolutely INSANE.

[@mgrella63]

That house took a beating im sure it needed a new roof after that besides needing windows. glad youre ok sorry about your cars

They don’t want you to go under them mainly because the wind will just pull you out

Your commentary makes this really worth watching, Take cover young man🤯

[@chrisalvarez7768]

I was in Portland Oregon in 2009, and hail was breaking everything. There was a creek near my hotel, and it would get inside the building. That disabled power and the elevator. Hail broke the windows and my roof was being hit hard.

S**ts broken in the kitchen 😂 2:22

Been through a hail storm in Scotch Grove Iowa..... many years ago.....maybe ( 50 ) years ago.... large jagged stones some bigger then soft ball sized. 80 mile per hour winds Took every window out of the house...siding off the house.....along with some window frames. With over 100 cows outside......a disaster... the cows had to be sold the next day to prevent more meat damage. Birds were dead.

[@kosmo2cat]

How come nobody made an effort to block all of that wind & water from coming into the kitchen through the broken window? I would have at least overturned a table and shoved it against the window to try & block the destructive elements. Was anyone getting laid in the house during this?

[@rubbrchikin]

@diarrheticgazelle Oh I agree with you, at least on the wind thing. I was ONLY talking about shelter from hail, which you also generally only need if the hail is larger than baseball size, or if you're in a convertible or on a bike or motorcycle. Not sure if Joe's dad even still HAS his convertible though...

[@ryansgirl74]

Guy: oh not a bad day today Mother nature: HOLD MY BEER !!!

[@ashleegreene4538]

I would be under my house way back behind the bricks. It would be quiet under there. It's definitely the most quiet place if a very bad storm comes

[@Li_Sai]

Меня всегда интересовало... Почему живя в таких местах люди не ставят на свои окна большие ставни? Почему эти огромные стёкла, которые так легко разбить, почти у всех, низкие порожки, которые так легко залить... Неужели они не смотрят новости, не читают историю, не знают, что могут попасть в такую ситуацию?

I was less than half a mile away, and in a little over 5 minutes it totaled my Impala out in the driveway. No garage to put it in!

I was 10, and had a hail storm like that. Mom, my-brother, my cousin and I we’re trying to hold the windows with blankets. Didn’t help much my brother and cousin got knock out cold. Dad measured the hail was an inch bigger than a soft ball.
