The one bright side is that Dougo now has all kinds of wood for trim upstairs. Thanks for your content.

[@patricksmith3135]

My heart goes out to you all; I know your struggle and its dire reality. My prayers for all of you as you work your way through this calamity and grow bigger and better.

[@jacobmulligan4324]

Another storm just ripped through there

[@B4rberblacksheep]

Having a drone to be able to inspect every angle of those bins must bring such peace of mind

[@stevelindstrom9890]

I like your videos. You guys have a lot of fun. I just watched your video with your wife and your folks on the road trip. I couldn't stop laughing. Your wife was a funny person. God bless you and your family.

[@t-yoonit]

Farmers are some of the best folks in the world. Even through destruction of this magnitude, high spirits abound, work continues, clean up and rebuild begins, because quitters don't win and there's always work to be done. Also, insurance is a godsend in times like these. It seems like wasted money when you don't use it for years or even decades but then things like this come along and you can breathe a sigh of relief that you have no severe financial loss, only some time and effort in clean up.

[@icebabysnocain]

According to your drone you are in the Minnesota wetlands. One hardly knows what to say here because only time putting this behind you will really help. Luv ya Winny, Pax.

[@johnmilburn5715]

That was truly expert 360 operation by Dougo. Superb to see....even given the circumstances. 👍

[@ajakarr]

We thoroughly enjoy the drone footage and appreciate the time it takes to do it,,, tony Fast does a great job with his please bring it back to your videos

[@jeremyshoemaker1058]

Hate the bad weather for you guys. Just remember things can be replaced with insurance. The only blessing is that everyone involved in your operation is alive and not injured!!!! Keep up the good spirits

[@louisb229]

Godly man with a Godly attitude. Nice to see when you see how others react. I understand people reacting badly in bad situations, but Doug is a man of God. Thanks from your brother in faith.

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for another great video Chet. Sorry it is about storm damage. It is interesting and enjoyable. So sorry about all of your storm damage. Glad that you all are ok and safe. God bless you all. Dougo did a super job of crushing that damaged grain bin. Just like a pop can. Good job Dougo doing clean up. Chet and Eric and Brody you all did a great job of clearing out that old round roof storage building. Kind of touchy getting your equipment out. You all did great. Clean up will take a while. Then other issues come up like fixing a field tile. Good job on that. Planting will come soon and put a hold on clean up. Feel bad about all your damage. Sincerely appreciate the positive attitude you all have about all of this. Know with time you will have it fixed up again. You all hang in there. Appreciate the videos on clean up. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything Larsons. Thinking of you all. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

[@mmurphy2317]

Rebuild time....bigger and better! Let's go! Full send! 🇺🇸

[@chaddevine565]

Oh you know they're going to do it bigger and better that's one of the main reasons I watch this channel I like how thorough they are I like how clean and neat they are and I like how all their s*** is right and tight

[@markrebman9882]

Prayers for you guys and a complete recovery

[@bradpogue3448]

Well Chet you are right that was cool watching Dougo smash the grain bin. Eric is gonna have a lot of seat time in the big Bob.. stay safe and positive.

[@mikemcguire8351]

Never give up....

[@rayanderson4119]

I've been waiting to see your damage. Dougo's vid from a couple days ago was eye-opening. I'm glad you are able to make progress on cleanup if you can't plant. Hope you get going soon. Ray from Dawson

[@unklegus4834]

“Endeavor to persevere” Keep on endeavoring like you do, and Larson Farms will persevere ! Great Video be safe

[@johnmilburn5715]

Oh Heck. "Financially not affected, emotionally.?...maybe". My heart goes out to you guys. Here we have nothing like this to contend with; just human stupidity. I know you will come back stronger than ever from this, it is in your nature. But seeing how your Mum was so obviously saddened and shocked in the last video from Dougo at the loss of the old church.... I felt a great pang of sadness, but also awe at how you guys just pick up a brush and shovel and say; "**** it, today's a new day and at least we're ok"!! You have my prayers and thoughts but, and I mean this; thank you for bearing with us during these hard times, and showing the true grit that keeps everyone fed. God bless you all.

[@garybilan1109]

things can be rebuilt nobody hurt that's good God Bless

[@juliejanzen819]

Loved watching Dougo running over the grain bin.

[@ericrichmond7047]

Went home to wisconsin for a wedding and finally getting to watch ya’ll and was totally heartbroken by the damage at Larson Farms. WOW! Let us know how we can support your recovery. Hard times on the farm. Keep up the hard work friends. -Eric

[@vivianzuniga8814]

I know how hard it is to see all the damage. I’m just thankful all of y’all are ok.

[@kennywiesemann4959]

God Bless you all. You are all in my prayers,

[@jeffalleshouse9783]

Praying for the larson farms!!!

[@ross7684]

Man, you guys got hammered again yesterday!

[@judycook1918]

Just when you think things can’t get worse they will,. Hang in there! This too shall pass and there will be better days ahead. For now, you have my good thoughts and prayers for a fast recovery and a bountiful harvest.

[@bryantdodd6636]

Nice work dougo

[@gail8494]

Dougo, I bet you had that bin folded up at the end to a nice 4 x 4! Excellent job! Thanks

[@1959canoe]

This is a lot better than 3feet of Snow & a Twister,,, Wrecking everything............ Sunny skies & warmer weather heading your way...... ( that's what I'm Prayin for ) ..

[@joelkenney5500]

Glad to see you found yourself a new girl!

[@JRoman1970]

Sorry for your lost Larson family. You know Dougo must be having a blast crushing that bin.

[@davidrobins4025]

Cleanup is always a huge task, but you all seem to be keeping a positive spirit in the journey. Thanks for showing us.

[@steveneal2706]

Sorry for all of the rain. great video. thank you

[@waterskiingfool]

Looked lije Brodie almost agreed a bobcat windshield to the list when he was taking the doors off. Thanks for sharing showing farming ain't always great

[@eddienash5426]

SAVE THAT OLD WOOD! Super glad your all safe!

[@jefffuchs5434]

Never a dull moment!!!

[@leifolshanshkii8868]

A farmer is, by nature, an optimist.

[@tomcleghorn4005]

It’s nice too see you all keep high spirits even when facing such adversity!

[@kevinhaycraft4595]

I pray you get good weather and good planting when you get to go. I’ll keep praying for all the great farm families.

[@davidheuvelhorst4873]

My heart goes out to you. Stay safe.

[@richardlug6139]

Those row crop cultivators will surprise you for what they go for, put them on Steffeses monthly consignments sales.

[@lfeco]

Looks to me like the boss has some skills with the excavator. Good luck to you guys.

[@mjz05cmcaba79]

I am so sorry that you had to suffer so much damage I know how hard you work. But mostly I'm saying praise the Lord that none of you got hurt

[@paxbonum4683]

It is nice, that in the midst of horrible field conditions and destruction of buildings, bins, and equipment, y'all can still smile and make jokes. Laughter is the best medicine, our friends at LF are gonna be fine. Hang onto those words, Chet, "We have hopes, we have hopes." Remember always, "God will provide." So, we have hopes. Thank God always. Praying for all of you. Peace

[@jamesbreault5762]

Glad your insured

[@kathymulcahy4318]

Thankful you are all safe. Keep the faith. God bless you all.

[@lchebuhar9212]

Dougo killed it ! 💪👍🏼

[@bjl1226]

From the beginning of this video I thought yall were Larson Fish Farm. Good Luck. Happy no one was hurt.

[@thebeardedbro]

You guys have made me want to be a farmer one day, always been a dream but watching your videos makes me realize how much I’d enjoy it. Glad y’all are safe after the storm, clean up sucks but buildings can be replaced, people can’t.

[@jamesklink4698]

Prayers 🙏

[@patrickerger1483]

Good job smashing the grain bin. So sorry that you all are dealing with the the damage. Glad that you all are okay. Stuff can be fixed and repaired.

[@raymondsanborn7763]

Sorry for your loss of equipment but life is good, your positive attitude is good to see, tell Dougo je should have crushed the silos into 4ft cobes lol

[@ryanbachman9227]

Monday night in central mn. Had a tornado hit my place and the neighbors 49 miles east of St. Cloud I was in the garage it started raining then a huge downpour I walked into the house came back out looked outside it was raining and 4 of the 5 grain bins were gone. Hell of a mess. Nothing like a lot of places. Thank god no one was hurt.

[@mikenawrocki1837]

Glad your all ok and alive. That was cool what Dougo was doing.

[@benniekleynhans6870]

Thinkin of Nicole in this time!Good luck during this time!

[@ChrysanthsMum]

Thank you for the video Chet. I’m glad you are all okay. Here’s to hoping 2022 gets better from here on out. 🙏

[@tomadelsberger6101]

Smile and stay positive It will all come together With the rain it gives you time to get debris out of fields before planting Stay safe In my prayers as always 🙏

[@markpistorius5428]

Great job Dougo, ,having way too much fun. Be safe.

[@blakefreeman9919]

Bigger and better brother

[@Jimleben]

Hang in there guys!

[@bryanlloyd1099]

So glad that you guys were covered with the loss you had!

[@paulsmith8212]

Thanks Chet . You guys are working hard.

[@frankgriffin1121]

I just hope when all is said and done, that you folks all come out of this in great shape. ,

[@bobcatsmith246]

Like I said in your last video. I'm just glad no one was hurting. Last year, I had to have the roof replaced and the north and west side vinyl siding replaced due to the hail storm. Dougo better be careful, he doesn't want to get a flat in one of those tracks.

[@chuckoboy952]

Very satisfying 😌

[@jacobwest8476]

Hey chet seen you got yourself a new squeeze. 👍

[@Godlovesyou-w1u]

Hang in there friend and don't give up!

[@philipfleming3546]

So many Acts of God this year, we must keep our spirits up an forge forward, continue being thankful for what we have, so many are hurting a lots more than us.

[@briangraham540]

Sad, but at least no one got hurt ! ( from Canada )

[@bethknapp2736]

Hate to see this then to get hit with more storms this past weekend. Glad everyone is safe.

[@tannerhaynes5965]

You guys are on the same level as Zach Johnson and he is my favorite so I have 2 favorite

[@jtzr1]

It's most likely disheartening to loose grain bins, buildings. But I think Dougo had fun crushing the grain bin..

[@amysblessings]

Indeed.

[@don-e4838]

I would like to think at some point I'm enjoying the harvest from this farm, keep up the good fight gentlemen!

[@bjaypk2669]

God bless you guys.

[@gordmcdonald2807]

I can't help but think Doug felt a certain amount of satisfaction as he drove over it. 😂😂😂😂

[@shealy265]

Glad to see you can still find fun/joy with the storm clean up. Old mother nature hasn't been very kind to your family this spring.

[@terryangell7595]

Glad you guys are all safe!

[@timrobinson1174]

Dougo better get mud grips put on the struggle bus. It’s extra moist out.

[@rdyardie]

Thank you for sharing when things are rather depressing. The pictures will remind your insurance companies but will also help you with memories. . . . They say that we tend to forget the bad memories first. Take care.

[@shannonbailey8201]

Keep up the good work. It’s going to be a sunny day before you know it.

[@Praterphil]

Rough year guys!

[@b.t.3780]

Thanks for the drone footage.

[@davidhowerton3434]

Dougo, I am glad your family is ok during the tornadoes. I know it hurts seeing all the damage to your stuff that you,your dad, & brother worked hard to build and grow to where you are today. I farmed with my Dad most of my life. I have the upmost respect for you and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

[@ronniewilliams8837]

I had my only sister and her 2 years old son killed in tornado in 1984.i live in south Carolina and we have had some terrible storms like you all.no how much it destroyed we and you all have your lives

[@Brian-ov1rj]

You folks are really good at fixing things! I would say that bin is flat.👍

[@jimpolk]

Felt bad liking this video seeing all the damage. Prayers for y'all.

[@stevekeast2297]

Glad you guys are all safe

[@fritzie1968]

MORE SILO CRUSHING VIDEOS! That was awesome to watch. I am sure you may have less than pleasant feelings about it obviously, but it was satisfying to watch.

[@berniegallizio5042]

Dougo is having to much FUN

[@georgedavidson9697]

Feel for you guys, the damage, clean up and rebuilding with a delayed planting season on top of everything. Hope the insurance doesn't give you a hassle !! And the nails and screws that find their way into tires long after everything is replaced. Been there, but this too will pass. Good luck, things will get better !!

[@russell1821]

Good job on that grain tank Dougo!)) slick

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

Derecho hits Corn Star Farms late last summer. Millennial Farmer gets hit with either straight line winds or a tornado in the last few weeks. I remember one evening in the 1970’s when I was a kid. Just my dad, next older brother and I milking cows. Mom and the rest of my brothers were gone for the evening. We hear a tornado warning on the radio. My dad heard the radio announcer saying where it was and the direction, then looked right at my brother and I and said it’s coming straight towards us. My brother was pacing, going in and out of the milking parlor looking at the weather outside. I heard the tornado roar for about 30 seconds. My dad didn’t stop milking cows for a second through all of it. The next day there was a swirled flattened path in the alfalfa field to the WSW of the barn and another path of tornado destruction on the other side of the building site. The tornado had lifted and went directly over my dad, brother and I,,, didn’t touch a single building and dropped into the corn field. 😇

[@rdyardie]

It is amazing how the initial shock hits a person to show us how small we are in the scheme of things. 🤔

[@joycerninor]

So sorry for you guys....so glad you can have such a positive attitude.....prayers for everyone 😊

[@jamesloguelugnut4848]

Keep your spirits up chet things will get better always remember you're right where you need to be and this too shall pass

[@Ronzo1953]

Really sorry about all the damage and will be praying that things dry out so you can get into your fields DOUGO is having way to much fun with the grain bin

[@40yeartrucker25]

Dougo you empire is still there its just like everything I got its just a little bit F ed up. Gods speed.

[@dmorgan28]

Hey guys keep your heads up. I know farming has really been a struggle this year with all the rain, but the sun will shine again. We’re praying for you you all. Sorry for your losses. 👍👍👍❤️

[@mp3625]

Same in our area also. Glad your ok

[@automandan]

My thoughts and prayers 🙏 go out to everyone in Minnesota affected by the Tornadoes 🌪.
