The son of my father's friend died in the Bridge Creek-Moore tornado that was ranked #2. It took two days to find him in the rubble of his apartment building, and the tornado had moved him several hundred yards from the location of his apartment. He had tried to take cover in his bathtub, but there was nothing that could have protected him from a storm that strong. He was 24 years old.

[@bully056]

I am sorry for your loss, me and my family were traveling through Moore at the time and the day before we stopped at a hotel overnight because we were all exhausted from traveling. We had initially been planning to stay until the 4th, take some down time and maybe go into OKC because none of us had seen the city. My parents decided at 5am May 3rd to just get on the road, it was a last second decision that likely saved our asses. We didn’t hear about it until we stopped at a Diner in Amarillo Texas at 6:30pm.

The 1925 tornado, they didn't hear the warnings. They didn't even have warnings back then. The first ever tornado warning was given in the 1950's. It took years for tornado sirens to become the standard. Even still, many rural communities don't have sirens.

[@sonofbelz]

And now many communities are getting rid of them in favor of smartphone alerts. Which is unfortunate for those who don't have regular cell service in rural areas or their phone with them at all times.

the reason he said go to the bathtub is because structurally speaking if there is no basement or storm shelter the bathroom is designed differently than the rest of the house and it is more sturdy. of course you would still need pillows and or a mattress to protect yourself from flying objects.

[@angelichobi__18]

That’s where my mom and I go when we are in tornadic like weather (not like in a tornado but when the weather can produce a tornado), our apartment building is really old and the only relatively “new-ish” place to take shelter is the bathroom.

[@AntonioRivera28]

the movie twister from 1996 is probably one of the best disaster movies of all time. its all about tornadoes. definitely a must watch for anyone interested in that topic. A tornado is formed when hot humid air is moving one direction and cold dry air is moving the opposite direction and they collide. it pushes the hot air up and the cold air down, creating a spiral. You instantly feel the pressure change outside when a tornado becomes likely to form. And if it's during the day the sky will often turn green. We have more tornadoes in America annually than we have days in the year. I've been in 2

Well, since watching tornado videos is part of my self therapy, thanks for having a new one :) I live in Andover Ks and have been through 2. One April 26, 1991 (F5)and one April 29, 2022. (EF3). There's a lot of video about both of those on youtube so I don't really have to talk about either of them*, other than to say that no matter how many videos about tornados you see, NOTHING will prepare you for the NOISE. *It borrowed my car and left it parked in a window. On the second story of the building. A mile away. I do want to say though, if you watch any movies about tornadoes, it is very important to note that some of the things hollywood has put in them (like hiding under a bridge) for shelter are incorrect and very, very dangerous. Every year, people are killed because they got caught up in the direct path of a tornado while they're out in their car, and believe that pulling over and hiding under a bridge or overpass will keep them safe. It won't. In fact, it is the worst possible place to be during a tornado, because tornadic winds get even stronger and faster when they go over a bridge. It's called the "wind tunnel effect" No human being is stronger than the that kind of wind. It doesn't matter how tight you hold on, you will be sucked out or blown out from under the bridge and die a very nasty death. If you are out driving and find yourself in the middle of a storm with a tornado coming your way, do this instead: Do not try and outrun the tornado in the same direction it is going. Turn a corner and continue to move away but from the side. Tornados are unpredictable and may change direction at any given time, so keep an eye on it. If it is going to catch you, and only if it is SMALL, pull your car to the side of the road and lay flat on the ground. In a ditch, if possible. Lower is better. But not......not next to the car, actually you're going to want to be a bit away from it. Do NOT stay in your car, do NOT enter a drainpipe. (same wind tunnel effect) Cover the back of your head and neck to protect them as much as you can, and spread your legs out so that you are as flat as possible. It is harder for a tornado to pick up low, flat objects. You may be injured, but injury is much more preferable than getting burned/crushed/smashed/flung/impaled/ripped apart by wind and debris. Do not get up until the storm has passed. You'll probably have to walk home, as the tornado will likely borrow your car and leave it parked somewhere that you normally wouldn't expect to find a car parked. *Like through a second story window a mile or so down the road. If it is a LARGE tornado and still getting bigger and closer while chasing you, find the lowest bit of land you can. If it's going to hit you, you have a 50/50 chance of surviving it anyway, so it does not matter if you stay in the car or not. Try to not. I was always told to try and get underneath the car if possible. Anywhere but under a bridge. The first tornado I went through has a video on youtube showing it chasing some weathermen and others who hide under a bridge The only reason they were not hurt is because this bridge was very old and built quite differently than the way they are built now. Still, don't risk it. Stay safe.

I live a little under an hour away from Joplin Missouri, and it's something I'll remember clearly for the rest of my life. I worked at a call center at the time and we had stores and colleagues in Joplin, so we were paying close attention. We're also east of Joplin, so we were next in the path of the storm that produced it, we didn't know what to expect when it got to us. I spent a lot of my following days off work volunteering in Joplin. Another part of what made it so deadly was that it was right in the middle of the afternoon. The high school graduation had just finished, students and families were outdoors and on the road. Businesses were open, people grocery shopping and getting gas and out and about living their day, that got caught in it.

I wanted to make some comments here, as a Joplin survivor and current resident. First; thank you for your compassion. I swear our EF5 tornados are inspiration to our Air Forces. You are absolutely right that it looks like a combat zone post-bombing. Or, perhaps, divine retribution to the most hawkish- yet devout- section of our country for the humanitarian misdeeds we are responsible for elsewhere. Secondly- the tri-state tornado was before tornado warnings and their systems were invented. Most tornado warning systems double as military air-raid warnings; or rather, were re-purposed air-raid/nuclear missile warning systems from their installation during the Cold War in the 1950s. Thus, even though that tornado lasted for 6+ hours across 3 states, none of its victims had warning.

Surprising that the El Reno tornado wasn't on the list. Might be that it was down graded to a EF-3 only because the amount of damage wasn't on the level of a EF-5 because it didn't really hit a large populated area.

When you live in an apartment building that doesn’t have a basement or storm shelter, the bathroom is your only option to take shelter. Getting in your bathtub is one of the safest places to be when there’s no basement or storm shelter, which is where my mom and I take shelter when we need to. We almost had 2 tornados touchdown In the middle of town in Aug. 2020 on the exact same day only an hour apart. My aunt and cousins were visiting so we all had to huddle in the bathroom, and fitting 5 people in one small bathroom is a very very hard task. If those tornados had touched down together they would’ve no doubt caused F3-F4 level damage. Another tornado we almost had 3 years ago in May 2022 was caused by a massive supercell thunderstorm, my Great Grandma’s Small town of Tyler took a direct hit and my mom was on the phone with her during the storm, thankfully the tornado was really weak and only cause F1 - F2 level damage and my great grandma was fine. My town of Marshall, Minnesota was almost hit head on by a tornado on the same day in May 2022 which would’ve been F3 or F4 level strength had it not dissipated right outside of town, and the tornado sirens decided to NOT WORK that day so we had no clue there was an incoming tornado and could only guess based off of the massive supercell thunderstorm and darker than night, wall clouds. My mom and I took a radio into the bathroom so we could listen to the storm forecasts from the radio station (which is right in town) while also taking shelter. The first thing I grabbed before even taking shelter was my cat. My cat is more important than my own life, if I can keep my cat alive and give her another chance to live and find another loving family if anything were to happen to both my mom and I, I’ll take that chance. She’s the sweetest cat I’ve ever met and has done so much to help my anxiety and comfort me during my anxiety attacks. I want another family to have her that’ll love her unconditionally just like we do. Alot of the apartments and houses on my side of town (the poorer part and oldest part) would’ve been completely destroyed including my apartment building. My apartment has been around since the late 1970s and hasn’t been updated at all, one strong gust of wind can shake the whole building so tornado level winds would wipe it clean off of its foundation. My mom and I are trying to find somewhere else to live in town but the newer apartment buildings are so damn expensive that we can’t afford even if I were to help. (Think city level rent, like $1100 a month! We’re a town not a big city) Marshall has been around since the 1870s or 1880s and 90% of the buildings on main street have been around since the 1900’s and 1890s! The oldest building is just down the street from me, it’s been multiple different businesses over the last century, it was originally the “Atlantic Hotel” in about 1905, a wedding venue from the 90s-early 2010s, “Bello Cucina” a fancy seafood restaurant from 2012-2022, and it’s currently a fancy craft food restaurant from 2023-???. Another older building is on Main Street as well, it was originally a bank but was made into a Chinese/Thai food restaurant in the 80s which is still in business 40 years later. It was originally called “The National Bank” from the 1900s - 1970s, it was made into “Hunan Lion” a Really well-known and famous local Chinese/Thai restaurant from the 1980s-present, their food is really really good and pretty affordable when it’s just you. Even after Covid their business is still thriving because they’re one of the best foreigner owned restaurants in town. They have the most amazing food I’ve ever tasted in town, their fried rice is so good, their egg rolls and teriyaki beef are to die for, their chow mein and lo mein are fire (my moms personal favorite), their seafood combo & Seasame beef/chicken are so good (my personal favorite), their bubble teas are so good (only place that makes bubble teas in town)

I live in a part of "Tornado Alley" and have lived here for my whole life "27 years," and I've had to take cover for tornadoes more times than i can count, but i still have yet to actually see a tornado or experience one (thankfully). The closest I've been to one was when a very small one passed over my house a few years back and touched down in a small farm land less than a half mile away from my house then went back up just before it got to the houses on the other side of the farm. It was one of those things that felt scarier after i found out what it was i actually heard, as i wasn't even taking cover at the moment it was over my house. I was going down the stairs to get to a safe place when i heard the wind pick up to at least 80mph for about 5-10 seconds. It was in the back of my mind during the moment i heard the wind, but it wasn't until the next day when i drove past the farmland and saw trees snapped and fences torn up that i realized what it was. Luckily, it was an insignificant one that didn't turn into anything. Other than that, there was one other time when i was a kid where a tornado ripped through a part of town about 25 minutes from where i live, and i went down there afterward and saw the damage. There's still trees, to this day, in that area that are permanently bent towards where the tornado was. But I've still yet to actually see a tornado or experience one. Just one close call with an insignificant one and damage from one in a different town. I definitely would like to eventually see one out in a field somewhere. It's certainly on my bucket list, as weird as that might seem to some people.

There are hundreds of tornados every year. Each one is given a clasification from EF1 - EF5. There have been thousands of tornados the last ten years, but all of them have been EF4 or lower. People still can be hurt or killed by these, so we still treat them as if they are the most devastating tornados, because we just don't know until it's over what classification it was.

[@frankisfunny2007]

The creepiest scenarios with a tornado are nighttime tornadoes. Unless you have radar up, you can't see them unless there's lightning around it, or hits power transformers.

[@frankisfunny2007]

9:30..... Nick (Swegle, the original poster) completely butchered the town of Wilkes-Barre..... The "Wilkes" part is universally said as "WILL-kiss", but the "Barre" is commonly pronounced as "Bare/bear", and "berry".

[@frankisfunny2007]

Also, sorry for the multiple responses on 1 comment...... Sometimes, it's not about the overall destruction from a storm, but how slow the storm is. Like Hurricane Agnes in 1972 caused more destruction here in central Pennsylvania, and other areas. It may have been only a category 2 hurricane, at worst, but it was slow moving.

[@SeraphimArmy]

What about the El Reno tornado? It was 2.6 miles wide

[@aaronlayes4485]

We have 3 warnings with one confirmed in pauls valley oklahoma, one passing into tinker afb in okc confirmed on the ground

[@tribaldeity1939]

its simple science its the cold air from the west pacific/ rocky mountains colliding with warm air from the gulf leads to severe weather/ tornados, what makes it unpredictable is the jet stream over north america that constantly changes. but tornado alley is the meeting center nonetheless due to positioning of the gulf/ mountains

[@stevenfranklin7060]

we get tornados all the time here in US... we just had a bunch in 4 different states over the weekend 4-25-2024 to 4-28-2024. None EF5 but 3's and 4's.

[@richhill39]

I was in the Xenia Ohio tornado. In the house I was in, the tornado took the house, and all that was left was myself and my sister, and a television. It even took the linoleum off the floor and left us.

[@GatoradeOverPrimeByElipsy]

Your that old?

[@shotemup123]

We had our first EF5 tornado in Nebraska about 2 weeks ago. It had been since 2013 when we last had one

[@Bluesbetter7491]

Wasn’t that the one somewhere near Omaha?

[@Bluesbetter7491]

Wasn’t that the one that struck somewhere outside of Omaha?

[@kingkush316]

The Wichita tornado of 91 is called the Andover F5. The structures at the time were not well built and it was actually less the then 5 minutes when the police rolled through with sirens to warn people. I know these facts because not only was I there that day, but I also live in the very same trailer park to this day!!!I can go out to the front yard, dig 6inches deep and pull up broken glass from the trailers that sat here first lol.

[@Loki_Trickster]

A good thing to point out for foreign viewers which is hard for them to understand is Well built doesn't mean masonry either. Homes in tornado prone areas are lashed together, in ways so they don't come apart as easily. And being well built doesn't save you from tornados either. The average European stone and masondry home wouldn't survive the average ef1 tornado and better then a stick house will. Well build Concrete buildings have been taken down by tornados. Tornados will eat any roof from breakfasts, and positive and negative pressure will destroy nearly any glass in a home if it wants.

[@WanderingRoe]

The Tri-state tornado actually lasted 3 hours, it was the outbreak itself that lasted 7…isn’t that right? Correct me if I’m wrong. 🤔

[@muhammadaskari5793]

Yes Sir You are absolutely right

[@license2kilttheplaidlad640]

We had a tornado last week

[@MichaelKing4023]

You need to check out Reed Timer and his tornado chase videos And some of the other Tornado Chasers as well. Oklahoma is in what is called Tornado Alley which starts in Texas and goes through Oklahoma and Kansas .

[@user-wi9hv2pb2q]

It is important for everyone around the world to remember the USA is probably the Most capable to deal with tornados. When Japan deals with earthquake and tsunamis they are experts at those disasters. So this is the Best response humanity can have. We will have More violent storms around the world and people should work to prepare.

[@NancyCusimano-o8u]

I grew up in Midwest, Minnesota. We got tornadoes every spring and fall. Not as much as the southern states and usually not as big. (EF1-EF3) People who live with this get use to it. Thats why youll see people still out and driving about. (Not to smart) But, we also are fascinated by God's nature and thrive to watch them. Storm chasers. My family definitely are into storms. They dont scare us as much as others. They have people whom will take you out to chase them and view from a safe distance. Kinda cool. Now i live in Northern California Redwoods and earth quakes are the norm here. 😳 Just found your channel and subscribed 😊. Be watching. You two seem like really nice people. Have u been to America?

[@brucehamm2072]

If you see a tornado but it appears that it is not moving you need to run because this means the tornado is moving in your direction and they say to get into the bathtub because the bathtub can help protect you from flying debris like wood and glass which if it hit you it could be fatal you should also try to get into the basement away from windows because wood and metal debris can come in through the windows my grandfather actually built a small room in the center of his basement made of layers of plywood and about 6 inches of reinforced concrete for when tornado happens he kept it stocked with bottle water and non perishable food just in case

[@davidmazzell2332]

Yeah, we get tornadoes,hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards and every other weather one can think of.

[@AxelFoleyDetroitLions]

I have a video of the radio tornado- alert from couple months ago while i was driving lol

[@taishaortega6652]

I was in school. It was my senior year. We have a habit of listening to the warnings for family . The Moore tornado man could have wiped out my family had it gone further. I was at work and saw the news and asked to go on my break because my boss saw the color drain from my face . I may be from New Mexico we get them to . Thankfully my family was okay . It’s crazy to see how much damage there is . We had one almost form in our backyard. But the thing is in my town not everyone can hear the sirens . I forget they exist . And truly if anything happens there would be little to no warning . The walking dead tornado usually means you’re going to die . There’s nothing you can do on the highway the most you can do is get out of your car and find a ditch . And hope you make it

[@muhammadaskari5793]

Joplin Tornado Terrifies me everytime 😢

[@Marcus-p5i5s]

Ironically there is a company based in Texas that invented the process to make affordable, tornado proof homes and they have a hard time getting people to build them. Very much a Darwin Award Candidate test.

[@VoltBolt1984]

Despite being the bottom of the list, the 2011 super outbreak was the most recent super outbreak and hopefully, we won't get one for another decade. Super outbreaks occur every forty to fifty years and historically speaking, there have only been three: the 1932 tornado super outbreak, the 1974 tornado super outbreak, and the 2011 tornado super outbreak. I highly recommend watching reacting to weatherbox's analysis of the 1974 super outbreak simply because of what that event did not just to the midwest and deep south but how it redefined tornado science as a whole thanks to the scientific mind of one man, Dr. Ted Fujita.

[@peterg.j.macpherson2451]

While the United States is also a Tornado hotbed, it should be important to note that other regions of the world are the same. Bangladesh and south-central China also get tornadoes, but not at the same intensity or frequency. The most recent EF5 tornado to hit either India or Bangladesh was in 1989, the Daulatpur-Saturia tornado. Generally, the Ganges Basin is tornado prone. On another note, US tornado outbreaks are uncommon, and most of the tornadoes in those outbreaks are only EF1 or EF2. the 1974 and 2011 tornado outbreaks each had upwards of three EF5 tornadoes in various regions.

[@peterg.j.macpherson2451]

There is a common phrase, calling EF5 tornadoes the "Finger of God", and for good reason. It is as if a deity reached down from heaven, and dragged his finger across the earth, leaving nothing but destruction in it's wake.

[@diontaedaughtry974]

Great Reaction 👍👍

[@ajruther67]

If you don't have a basement underground under your house, the bathroom is the safest place in the house.

[@Boogy816]

Not necessarily

[@88wildcat]

Oh they have had EF-5 tornadoes since then but the government refuses to classify them as EF-5.

[@briarpatch720]

I was in the 1991 Wichita / Andover F5 I grew up in Haysville (just south of Wichita)

[@WithASideOfTibbs]

This is going to be very random and unrelated, but I noticed that, when something upsetting or overly-negative happens in the video you're reacting to, you click your tongue a lot. Is that something in your region or country that's done in response to a negative or upsetting situation? I've never seen tongue clicking/tsk'ing used this much, and it's interesting to see it used as a response to the video. It really stood out to me, and I'm genuinely curious to learn! :)

[@bissman15]

We just had our first one in ten years about a week ago in Iowa

[@bigscrewg]

The 1990's movie 'Twister' describes an F-5 tornado to be like the finger of God

[@Regal99]

The middle finger.

[@bigscrewg]

@@Regal99 well when dealing with sinners like us, who wouldn't wanna give people THAT finger?

[@overcomer91]

Be sure to watch the movie Twister from 1996. It's not 100% accurate, but it's still a good film. The sequel (Twisters) comes out later this year. 😉

[@morningrosie3684]

And still, dads will stand outside and watch these like a TV show.

[@jimstultz3345]

Read about Bangladesh and Pakistan tornados.They had some of the worst.

[@sahebplays3589]

😅😂 FYI the Tuscaloosa tornado didn't have a penis; it had what is referred to as a horizontal curl or a 'mini satellite' which is indicative in leymans terms of a very powerful tornado (this tornado had peak windspeeds at 100 ft AGL of 270 - 280 mph) @TheLoudGuys

[@djwarren801]

"That tornado has a PEN15"....lmao

[@andreaarmendariz6556]

Where I live is Texas but somewhere in Texas I don’t have tornados

[@neutrino78x]

Luckily, no tornadoes in California! Just earthquakes, like India! 😲 🙂
