Texas family describes harrowing escape from devastating tornado

[@cosygracegames]

The storm chaser Freddy McKinney really was right in their path to save them and take them to the hospital, I’m so proud to know him, and am so grateful they are safe🙏🏻

[@suntiki33]

I haven’t heard of him - thanks for posting his name, I’m going to go watch. ❤

[@cosygracegames]

@@suntiki33 yeah he’s a great person, him and his dad John are chasers, as well as I highly recommend Reed Timmer, and Connor Croff :)

[@Yukinomarvell]

just saw the video of him and then this was recommended, really awesome that he was there at the right time

[@gerimartin6558]

Freddy McKinney is the amazing hero that rescued that family and their dog. He is a great storm chaser, who went out of his way to take them far way to the nearest hospital! A true hero! I watched this whole incident live on his channel. Thank God he was there at the right time to help that family. Bless you Freddy!

[@paulhedman7387]

I saw that too. Incredible, Freddy showed up as the tornado was leaving the yard. Thank God for that.

[@420-pom]

I also watched it here in New Zealand, and respect to Freddy for all he done and to Connor for being a good support friend…

[@kat2270]

I watched it too, here in the UK. What a hero Freddy is. Thank God he was there. All the best to all involved.

[@michele6126]

This Mama was in full momma mode when she and the family were rescued by Freddy! She was calm, giving directions, asking to use a phone, all while being transported to the hospital…..She is a superhero, her family and Freddy! ❤

[@chadsebesian7203]

I was actually randomly watching Freddy’s live channel while this happened. I was absolutely in shock when I saw that family running up to him in his car. I could not believe I just witnessed that live. It was horrible and was praying for that family. So glad they are ok. Freddy is a hero

[@randomentertainment8927]

I can't imagine watching your child get pulled away by a tornado. That's horrific

[@stevenclever]

Little buddy needs solid support!! You can see the trauma of the experience in his demeanor 😟🙏🏼💙🙏🏼

[@carollyon4755]

Poor little boy is so traumatized. But he has his precious puppy to cling to . They will support each other. God bless this family and all who are part of it. God is a God of miracles.

[@joeschmoe5009]

I watched this incident live! Im so glad freddy was there to save yall! Its heartbreaking to see it happen, but an absolute miracle they survived with freddy there to instantly help

[@helenpauls1496]

Right place, right time. Very lucky. Good for him.

OMG! I was watching this! Was hoping we could get an update!!!! I know I’m not the only one, but to see this update has me in tears! I’m soo happy to see that they’re all ok! I was REALLY worried about the little boy! I bet he’s going to have trauma from this. He thought he was dying in his mommy’s arms. And OMG she was amazing with her children while on the way to the hospital! A TRUE MOMMA BEAR WARRIOR! 🙏🤗❤️🙏

[@Jane-West]

So glad everyone is ok! That young man is a survivor!

[@TheDon-i9d]

I hate seeing children hurt 😫

[@leannemccumber]

God bless Texas and God bless that sweet family.❤

[@wakz2618]

Watched Freddy rescue that family on livestream. Was praying for them all night. Praise the Lord he held them in His hands and kept them safe!

[@haggard21077]

Same here. We watched it live as well. What a shocking moment. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

[@sarahluper7881]

Praise the Lord, amen!

[@Baking_baked]

Just saw it was Freddy. He is the one guy you want driving past. He is always stopping to look around and help.

[@angiesuarez1753]

Thank God.they were all alive and safe..

[@TexasBurningFlower]

So glad your son is alive..and well…god bless!

Freddy saved them.

[@leticiadalea7581]

Poor baby 😢

[@BbyDisrespect]

Thank you Jesus ❤

[@TheMommaDiary]

I’ve watched Freddy McKinneys videos a lot lately & he is an incredible chaser. Safe, vigilant, and is always checking on homes even if he’s chasing. Truly a gem.

[@stacyhackney6100]

Those poor people. My prayers are with them.

[@R.O.T.C._SEEM]

I was suppose to take a load down there. Thank goodness I didn't

[@nelliebnice]

Girl you better move to Arizona or somewhere because that boy is traumatized 😮

[@DXTRIPLEHBK]

Prayers once again doing nothing.

[@SRockwell]

Sweet Moses!

[@sparkyplug788]

Always a good idea to have full face helmets at the ready. Head trauma causes many fatalities during tornados.

[@lifeintornadoalley]

People now see that the y'all squad doesn't have the impact that chasers and first responders have. This is why you donate to chasers. Not KZbinrs! Chasers can use the funds for first aid kits and essentials that these people need.

[@mindofchrist100]

Wow! Near Abilene?

[@BLACKONCODE2024]

Little man is not cupcake💪🏽🔥💯

[@michelleruffin6903]

Freddy may have been the vessel that God used, but only God can sustain and give life. Thank you Freddy for being submissive to God, but in the end He is the real lifesaver. ❤

[@haydenhayes6696]

Homes should come free with in ground storm shelters

[@Alwaystaykind]

💕💕

[@HeatherRose2023]

Where can I watch Freddy McKinney’s full live storm chase video of this tornado? Would like to watch it without the news logos and editing. Freddy was clearly sent by the Lord to help that family in their time if most dire need.

[@johannajoanne3546]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@victormaciel2295]

Instead of prayers why not dig a tornado shelter a la wizard of oz since they live in tornado alley.

[@dalesmyth7398]

Many cannot afford them. $5000.00 for the cheapest underground cellar, I just called last week on one.

How are the people in wheelchairs gettinnnnn around ?????

[@dontbestupid6664]

Crazy how cars in America are built better than houses.

[@scarpfish]

They have to be. Cars have a much higher probability of getting into a messy situation than houses do. Homes have a fraction of 1% chance of being hit by any tornado much less a EF3+ one. If homes were built like you internet idealists say they should be, nobody could afford one, and many can barely afford them now.

[@truthmarshal6627]

Silver iodide cloud seeding? It’s rain season, but I can’t recall rain amounts like this happening this often. I keep reading about the government putting silver iodide into the skies to enhance rain possibilities. This is a fact and maybe the intentions were good initially. But sometimes good intentions lead to bad things and we need to re-evaluate. Question: Why isn’t this being talked about by meteorologist and why aren’t journalists reporting on cloud seeding and the effects of silver iodide. I’d like to hear from experts in the field. I have read they are cloud seeding in Texas.

[@Trahzy]

It's just storm season again, calm down.

[@truthmarshal6627]

@@Trahzy I’m a native Texan. I have been around severe storms my entire life. Like I said in my comment, it’s rain season. Apparently few people know anything about silver iodide or cloud seeding. Massive flooding and Storms in Dubai now being blamed on cloud seeding. Not just seasonal storms. I was just wondering if anyone else has looked into cloud seeding.

Republicans fault

[@peterwilson4248]

I used to be stationed in San Antonio, TX back in the early 1990s and when the weather started to change from winter to spring, the weather would get violent. We didn't get that much rain, but the little we received, the ground couldn't absorb it fast enough, therefore it would flood badly. We also had lighting and hail storms, and occasionally, tornadoes would hit towns very near San Antonio but never in the three years I lived there did they form or touch down in San Antonio. The weather seems to be progressing far worse than it used to the world over. Perhaps there is such a thing as climate change; we can keep ignoring it all we want. The people south of the equator are going to suffer much worse than we are, especially the countries that are growing fast and improving their quality of life. Man is a very destructive creature.

[@Trahzy]

It's not worse, this isn't anything unheard of of uncommon. Just another spring tornado outbreak.
