I’m STUNNED the Joplin 2011 convenience store video didnt make it into the list. It’s the closest thing to a tornado horror video that you’ll see, and you’ll never forget the noise you hear when the tornado opens up the walk-in freezer.

[@paulcarpenter7844]

Agreed

[@ussstropicana]

I'd say it didn't make this list because the tornado is not showed in the video but it was tragically suspenseful to the max. Aftermath of First person Joplin Tornado clip might interest you : kzbin.info/www/bejne/jV6zZYNsbb6shK8

[@DonLytle68]

The video is about “visible” tornadoes, inside the store it was not seen only heard. It is one of the scariest I agree with

[@ClefairyRox]

Probably because that footage doesn't show the tornado, or much of anything, for that matter, because it's so dark. While I agree that footage is haunting, it's memorable for the audio, not the visuals like with these videos. That said, I'd say the fact that you can't see anything is what makes that video so scary. You're forced to visualize what's happening based on the audio, and the things your mind makes up are always much scarier than seeing something in person.

[@dieterdelange9488]

The one of the Andover F5 of 1991 sweeping behind those row of houses is #1 for me, along with Pampa 1995. Plus the 2007 Manitoba F5 where it sweeps an entire home into the air.

[@RT-qd8yl]

The Andover footage is possibly the first tornado footage I saw, sitting there with my mom on the couch at 4 years old, and that's where it all began for me. I remember seeing the Gull Lake footage very near the same timeframe though.

[@slipknottin]

The Manitoba one might be the craziest couple seconds of tornado footage I’ve ever seen; when it actually picks up and carries an entire house. Absolutely wild

[@ceeinfiniti1389]

@@slipknottin That very video is what gave the Tornado an F5 rating. Surveyors initially rated the damage as high end F4 thinking that the tornado likely lingered or slowly moved over the area, which to be fair it did circle back on itself in that spot, but once the video surfaced it was undeniable. After Canada adopted the EF scale they said it was enough for the Tornado to have been rated an EF5. Truly a wild event!

By his own account, Clem straight up thought his house was going to withstand it because it was old and had held up to strong winds in the past. A fun quote from his interview with Fox 6 Now Milwaukee: "I saw part of my roof blow past the window, and I thought, 'Well maybe it’s not gonna hang on quite as well as I hoped it would.' And, then, the floor started moving, and I figured, no I don’t think it’s gonna hang on at all."

[@leemurrison9869]

For the overpass thing, it's not about girders or not, it's about the venturi effect. Forcing wind into a confined spot only strengthens the wind and makes wind tunnels, the girders may have been passable for that f2, but 300 mph winds forced into an overpass is a whole different story.

[@knurlgnar24]

Boundary effects far outweigh the venturi effect. Wind speeds at the edge where there are girders offering resistance will result in much lower wind speeds. Like he said it's all about whether you have something solid between you and the wind. A bridge truss is excellent cover. Modern pre-stressed concrete designs don't offer you much.

I've read that the tornado in the overpass video actually ended up missing the overpass entirely. You can kind of see it move off to the left in the video. All that wind screaming through is the inflow into the tornado, which I would say makes it even scarier because that video doesn't actually show the full force of the tornadic winds.

[@pattyslater514]

It's true. The tornado shifted its tracks moments before hitting the overpass.... those folks were only side swiped.

[@EternalCRTN]

not to mention that the i flow was basically multiplied as the overpass served as a small vacuum to ramp up its speed. Terrifying

[@tracyerik]

And we now all know from other tornado weather experts, an overpass is not good for taking shelter under. The wind is accelerated as the tornado pulls it under the overpass.

[@loopthetube]

Yep, that window shot in number one is classic. The first one I saw was the Greg Jarrett's video shot. I believe 1981. (I see you added it) It was a little one, but I was hooked for life. My interest started with distance relatives being in the 70s Lubbock. Without relatives I would had never heard it happened in our media-less world.

[@RagingMoon1987]

The video at Albion has one line that makes me giggle. The man behind Davida hollers to someone downstairs, "Ya oughtta see it! Come on up now!" The very next second lightning hits close and the resulting thunderclap is insane. The timing couldn't have been better. Regarding honorable mentions, I'd have included that footage at Dallas in 1957 (The clip with the big pieces of debris) and a suburban shot of the 1987 Edmonton tornado. When asked by a child what he's looking at, the cameraman at Edmonton replies "That's a cloud. That's a funnel cloud." Just as chill as you please. Superb video! My favorite clip got the first slot!

I remember vividly watching the Andover tornado coverage as it happened, as well as this video with the KSN folks under the bridge. We frequently bounced between KAKE and KSN for live weather coverage. The McConnell AFB footage. That was a terrifying season, and what’s more, over the next few years, nearly all the same places had been hit again. The same poor boat shop in Goddard got hit twice in a few years. Doppler radar was a new thing and if you couldn’t tune in to tv. You listened to the trained spotter coverage on KFDI. The 90’s was a wild decade to grow up and witness it all. Not to mention all of the science and technology to come. Footage and knowledge of what these places looked like before and after the storms is something I’ll never forget. Stories and footage from Hesston, Haysville, Yoder, Haven, Hoisington, Andover, and so many more are the text books I learned from.

Wife walks into the room and asks, "who's that guy with the hair?" (referring to Swegle). She received a blank stare from me and she just left the room. Will file for divorce in the morning.

Everyone in the comments up on homies lap. 😂

[@dannydougin3925]

Wow, your shirt changed color! Using Google Earth and going to the address mentioned in Kirkland, Ill and using the date shifter, if you go to 4/2015 you can see a lot more of the destruction and the scouring path into town!

[@punkrockstormchaser]

An honorable mention would be my own great grandfathers footage of the 1979 F4 in Witchita Falls TX His name was Thomas Tutcher

[@joewhite22]

Can't believe the video of the guy on the road nonchalantly reversing his car to make way for the passing tornado, didn't make your list. It's unbelievable footage of a tornado up close from a guy who seems completely unfamiliar with tornadoes and also has some great quotes from him: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpq2Y4l9itx4o5o

[@ChilledSky_]

The Sam Smith footage of Fairdale Tornado on this list should be an honourable mention. I've watched a lot of tornado footage and my stomach leaps out of my throat watching it every time. Crazy how the same tornado made two horrifying videos.

[@useazebra]

IMO best pro footage is TIV2 inside the Smithfield, KS tornado. Absolutely wild.

[@davidwalker3626]

Great list! For me, I would have included: - Duke Evans' footage of Andover at or near the top, as the insane ground motion and black wedge of death over the suburban homes was the truest stuff of nightmares for me growing up - The 'angry octopus' footage of the 2011 El Reno (the real El Reno EF5, much scarier than the 2013 one), which is the most violent motion I've still ever seen in a tornado video, plus the storm chasers nearly die - RODALCO2007's footage in Joplin, which is not the most iconic or horrific from Joplin (see my next one), but is the creepiest as they are filming all along Rangeline Road as the monster approaches, without realizing the exact locations they are at will soon be annihilated with tons of tragic deaths - Jeff Piotrowski's footage of Joplin, which is horrifying in every single way, and he didn't even release the worst of it, thankfully - Reed Timmer's footage of the Philadelphia, MS EF5 from the 2011 Super Outbreak; crazy motion, insane speed, unbelievable footage from an unbelievable day - the Elie F5 footage, super narrow, but insanely powerful and slow moving clear on camera - Jason Rosolowski's parking lot footage of Tuscaloosa, just incredible that he captured it so close with all its vortices...scary - the Jarrell video, because it is Jarrell

I’m from Nebraska and I live close to Omaha and my state just got hit by a tornado outbreak. There is an F3 in F2 and then I don’t know the other ones because it was yesterday.

[@DynamicDuo795]

Why do I feel like it's always the F4/EF4 tornadoes that travel the farthest. I know I can't be the only one to think that.

[@AirShark95]

It would be interesting to see another video on safety/security cam footage. What comes to mind is the 2022 Andover Kansas tornado. Probably the clearest security cam footage of a tornado I have ever seen!

[@nerdygem8620]

Have you done a video on how climate change is affecting the strength, frequency, and range of tornado outbreaks?

[@OuterGalaxyLounge]

I still think the greatest and most terrifying tornado video of all time is Fritch, Texas (Video 2) 1992, EF4, where the guy is right inside it (his house is struck by lightning and he's knocked out for a few seconds), and he keeps filming as the neighborhood is obliterated by multiple vortices all around him. One that gets wrongly overlooked in my opinion.

[@d0ublestr0ker0ll]

I can't WAIT for the top 10 famous tornado chaser videos.

[@baneverything5580]

In a one year period in 2022/23 I heard two tornadoes touch down here in central Louisiana less than 2 miles away. One was just after 2am a full 2 minutes before NOAA issued the warning but it was obvious to me what I was hearing. Thankfully both were in uninhabited areas...a swamp and a pine forest. It`s a terrible sound to hear when you live in a camper and get awakened by thunder after midnight then check the weather to find out dangerous storms are moving through with possible high winds, hail, constant lightning, and tornadoes. A lightning strike killed 4 trees 30 feet from my only shelter...a 3ft diameter flooded drainage culvert 130 feet up the driveway from my camper. Power was out from 3am until midnight the next night because of high winds.

[@soccerisaac1283]

You should do a video on old footage of tornado sirens/ vintage tornado videos with sirens in them

[@that1spike]

This is the best bro , “Rocket money sent a notification saying ‘large purchase alert’ and I was like uh-oh did someone hack into my account, but nah it was just my wife at target.” That is surprisingly hilarious.

[@00monkeydude001]

i use to go to Alabama football games all the time growing up and we use to hear about the tornado and the story of one of the players who lost his girlfriend who was in his arm and was sucked out.

[@dem0nchild610]

Wow I remember Real TV it's been a long time since I saw that logo it used to come on at 730pm on the local channel

[@clairenewberry9957]

I love that Marty McFly photo in the thumbnail lol

Only 200 views in 3 minutes? Man you really fell off dude

[@shanesheffield7237]

I lived in corn Oklahoma and I didn't know about this and I'm so impressed that in the little town of corn someone did something so significant. I've lived in Oklahoma for most of my life and I've never seen a tornado life is so crazy!!

[@DrRath21718]

Susan get my pants is definitely the best quote, I’m surprised the Manchester South Dakota footage didn’t make this list though

[@mrscardycreeper8972]

Very good list, I do think that there is one more video that could've potentially been in the top 10 (if not mentioned, at the very least). That video being of the Joplin tornado from 2011, where a bunch of strangers were gathered in a gas station and you get to actually hear the roar of the tornado. The roar was so loud, you could only faintly hear the sound of those inside (a freezer, I think?) screaming their heads off or trying to calm everyone down. As a kid, it was the scariest video of a tornado I had seen even though there was no tornado visible...which is probably why it's not on this list, but still should've been mentioned lol
