I've heard a number of stormchasers say that the most dangerous thing they face isn't the tornados, its driving in general. For the most part I agree, however with how close you get, its definitely the tornados for you. Some insane footage, but man I think you might be chasing that adrenaline a little too far sometimes.

This footage really gives you an insight into the power of a tornado's inner core. It's low precipitation, with a compact main vortex, and it's being shot from the perfect location. It kinda reminds me of Elie Manitoba, because it didn't have to turn into a wedge to show off its ferocity.

[@lancecurry7538]

The Elie F5 was about as big _as_ this tornado here, except it was a singular vortex (this EF4 was a multi-vortex) and it _still_ tossed a house.

[@OllieBeanz421]

[@13_cmi]

Yeah. Some tornadoes are weird like this. They look all pretty and don't look so scary but if you take a closer look you see how violent that wind is. This one looks kinda in between the pretty tubes dancing in a field and the big blobs that are a mile wide and ready to kill people. That rotation is crazy too. I want to find what tornado has the highest rpm. Cause some of them look real fast. I remember I saw a clip of a super narrow tornado shredding up a corn field spinning way fast. I know Reed Timmer was there too. But I don't remember which one it was.

Yeah, some people are oblivious to their surroundings. Make note of those vapor streamers along the ground. You see those you are in a low pressure zone, if they curve slightly, you are next to or right at the edge of a tornado. Closest I ever came was arcing vapor streamers on the back yard of my house, the tornado passed right over head without touching down but was far enough down to lower the pressure and cause arcing vapor trails along the grass.

[@carolyng5044]

Amazing footage. Yes, scary, humbling, are just a few words to describe what will grip you with awe and wonder. I always thought it is like mother nature slapping one in the face while it ignores the one next to the one being struck. Just don't get in her way she will toss you around like a rag doll. Living in Oklahoma, I always feel dread when the threat looms nearby. But I sincerely fear for those who live in areas of this country that do not normally experience these events. I have witnessed them in the past, cried over the devastation left in its wake, and prayed for those who just don't know what to do. Being struck in the middle of the night without a warning system is horrible. We grew up watching the weather, knowing what to look for and how to prepare. Even what to do if you are caught out traveling. Even still, I have experienced being woke up forced out of my bed in the middle of a cold February night by one of these monsters. That was over forty years ago, and I never forgot it, it was that close. You guys are so brave. Do you know what scares me most? We seem to be overdue around here. I have been watching these storms move north and eastward. Mother nature is so unpredictable, isn't it?

Great video!! Hopefully those who were in it's path of destruction were helped quickly! The rest of my comment is based purely on the footage presented in this video. That being said, if Tim had been in an interceptor-type of vehicle (armored, deployable jacks, low drag, etc.) I'd understand hanging that close to a tornado to collect data/footage. However, he was not. Considering that minutes earlier it threw a full-sized F150 pickup like it was a rag doll, that looked DANGEROUSLY close, especially for a violent EF4. Stay safe guys, and remember that no footage/data is worth the loss of human life.
