I got too close to this tornado

[@mountain_girl]

Seriously, my new favorite chase team, with a bullet. You and your Dad work really well together (nice driving too) and you both seem to stay chill which is essential for situational awareness/safety. Stay safe so we can all enjoy your content for many years to come.

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you and yes safety first! Plenty more content on the way!

[@sammylacks4937]

Rainwrapped tornadoes are a nightmare and glad all came out well. That's an awesome way for father and son to spend some quality time7 together and I'll give a sub for that and hope to see more soon. This reminded me of another father and son team and an experience they had. If you haven t seen check out James Burch and his dad's drive at El Reno. It's kinda funny afterwards because they both were fine , maybe some soiled drawers. They like most others there that day were surprised by the direction and sudden growth and there route of escape was a muddy dirt road with I imagine 100 mph+. inflow to punch through in 4 cyl. compact. Check it out and listen to James urging his dad to go and while he's doing so look out passenger window where camera is facing. He could nearly stick arm out and shake hands with that thing. It's a miracle they didn't get affected by outer tornadic winds or a satellite funnel. They have many more close encounters since but thankfully not like that day at El Reno.

I've never seen such a Green Hue in a Supercell T-storm. I'm a Meteorologist, Retired Airline Pilot & Sometimes Storm Chaser, I understand the Atmospheric Green Hue, but that's The GREENEST Green Hue that I've ever seen!!! You Guys made it through that Vortex because you didn't panic, something that I learned from over 40 years of Flying Airliners! It was also very pleasant NOT Hearing Shouting & Swearing!!! I mean, if you're a Storm Chaser & You Go Into A Supercell T-storm To Encounter A Tornado, Why Yell & Let Loose With Strings Of The Most Vile Swear Words Possible??? That's Never Made Sense To Me!!! If You Guys Had Panicked & Freaked-Out, There's a Very Good Chance That You Wouldn't Have Made It Out Of That Predicament Unscathed! It's Like Pilots, If You Find Yourself Facing An Emergency, You Won't Do Yourself or Your Passengers Any Good To Go To Pieces! You might be scared inside, but when you're in The Crisis Everything That You Do In That Time Until You've Safely Done What You Must To Do To Rectify The Situation Are The Most Important Things That You'll Do In Your Life! In An Airliner That Usually Means Running Down Troubleshooting Checklists!!! From That Point, You Depend On Your Training & Experience, With A Heaping Helping Of Common Sense & Prayer! Good Job! You Guys Did it!!! G-d Bless & Happy Chasing!!!

[@peacefulfeelings]

Wow, Wow, Wow! Glad you both and everyone in the towns were ok. Cannot believe you were inside that thing! I was like run, run, run!

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Yeah it was definitely a bit scary in there

[@Iris_lovesyou3]

​@@FreddyMcKinneydang you actually we're inside a tornado 🌪️

[@BlairandNaomi]

me too

[@Joy-if5of]

Wow John and Freddy! I was on the edge of my seat!!! Now you can say you've been inside a tornado! Great coverage as always! So glad you are both okay!

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you and we were fine just a little bit windy haha

[@DueNorthof45]

Proud of you both - Amazing how quickly situations can change - Rain wrapped, saw no powerflashes...greatful your ears knew. - Well done escape execution! Stay safe, you both are wonderful and happy chasing always

[@strongboy7289]

Definitely see that hook shape on radar you guys were driving in. Glad you're safe and made it out ok.

[@mikewebber633]

Glad you're both ok. Great job putting video together. Looking forward to your next video.

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you! Working on a new video that should be up soon!

[@TrueHighlander_Scotland]

I grew up in Highland, Kansas (small college town 26 miles West of St. Joseph) in the 60's and 70's and when I was about 4 or 5 we had a tornadic storm that came over our house in the northeastern corner of the town and took out all of our large yard trees, but no damage to our house or out buildings. Trying to find out if there is any history of tornadoes in Doniphan county or Highland (KS) that you all know about.

[@stantheman3252]

Awesome footage, stay safe out there!

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you we'll try!

[@timnewman1172]

Marysville KS is a nice little town, I used to drive thru there when my Sister lived in Clay Center...

[@AndrewPritchard]

Great stuff, Freddy! Friggin' intense storm.

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thanks Andrew was a bit windy in there lol

[@edwinwx260]

I tried punching south through the core between Marysville and blue rapids but never could get into view of the real tornado. From the moment we crossed into kansas from Nebraska to blue rapids we were under 5 miles from the bears cage but the whole time we were in 60-70mph easterlies with cg barages occasionally right before velocity would explode.

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Basically the only way to "see" it was to get hit by it. These south moving monster HPs are pretty much impossible to chase safely. Honestly it felt like chasing a hurricane more than anything

[@rosaliejeanne4681]

It would not surprise me if you became the next big storm chaser on YT. Subbed!

[@joshuaward4647]

I work in Marysville at landoll corporation. I remember this tornado. What a day! Glad everyone made it out okay! Keep up the content!!!!

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you Joshua that was a wild day indeed

[@patriciasmith5083]

That is the greenest sky I've ever seen.

[@tyler558806]

I thought the title was clickbait. I quickly found myself on the edge of my seat and incredibly surprised that your title was 100% accurate - in fact it was an understatement!!

[@migelo4705]

Stay safe out there friends.

[@connorisanidioot]

Yall deserve more love content is incredible

[@TheTimestampCommenter]

True

[@Tirnadi]

I like it that you both are chasing storms

[@jeremyv4636]

This is fast becoming one of my favorite storm channels to watch. Love the work, guys!

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you so much I'm glad you're enjoying the content! Plenty more on the way!

[@Cutter-jx3xj]

I was a storm chaser for 20 years and I have made some very bad choices. I chased before cell phones and laptops. I am sure you couldn't hear me yelling much earlier to get ur asses out of there😂

[@FreddyMcKinney]

We definitely should've turned around sooner. Good thing is we were sitting on our escape route

[@MrBambi-bh9hl]

Wow i live in Marysville, Ks and i was in the resturant (Mexican) and then i got 5 tornado warnings i was safe in the resturant and then i saw a Very Dark Cloud but there was customers/consumers inside and then the tree fell down my Resturant got no power and then my house got no power and then waited and then the resturant got power and then i waited for my house got power and now im my house and still have power that was a crazy storm

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Glad y'all stayed safe the NWS survey shows an EF1 tornado went straight into town

[@sandywalter9728]

I love you guys! You play it safe, but the videos are still thrilling! No need for loss of life being arrogant... mother nature week win everytime!

[@cabinvibesebaystore8956]

Thank you 🙏

[@jluclacour47]

[@FreddyMcKinney]

[@finwasfound]

[@NotBLoves]

[@BlairandNaomi]

[@criticallard2090]

[@celeno31]

[@oneidaindian100percent8]

[@huntersvoboda1937]

[@sarkafilipova4543]

[@T3traGam3r]

Please don't risk your life for the perfekt Shot of a Tornadoe.

[@TheTimestampCommenter]

[@mdgrooms1982]

I heard 3 yrs ago a scientists talking on cbs.. They said, They have a weather making device, that can make Blizzard's, Tornado s, Hai, nd Rain.. Last yr Saudi Arabia got lots of snow. Unheard of.. There's wild weather all over the place.. Scary times....

[@BritaTM909]

TORNADO AAAAAAAAAAAA

[@timothyswag3594]

Looks like you are the tornado

[@liamhall-hicks3079]

do more videos update

[@kandykorn6136]

If you guys had a brain you'd take it out and play with it. Don't forget there are people like me that wanna take out their brain and play with it too. I'd love to see a tornado but not this close.

[@Zoo-Wee-Mama-Sq]

Lmao

[@juliusjames5577]

Na, you didn’t close enough. Could you imagine how many views you would get if you got your camera into the tornado?
