Mike Bettes was right though cause look what happened to Team Twistex. Tim Samaris was wicked smart and he knew how to chase tornados. Tim and Carl chased tornados for years but the El Reno tornado was different from every other tornado they chased. What I don't get is Tim and Carl was always in a big truck chasing tornados. Why did he switch to a tiny Chevy Colbalt and yet put his son in that kind of dangerous environment ? I'll never understand why he switched to a smaller vehicle. R.I.P. Team Twistex and the other storm chaser that died in that tornado.

@@froey198033 I saw a clip of him saying that it was more under the radar from fans and people knowing them. Less known car and would draw less attention. Nobody would expect they'd be in it. Maybe they just wanted to be able but without having people know it's them. Or maybe they chose it because it's less bulky and easier to get around. Everybody knows their truck who has watched storm chasers so maybe they just wanted to be incognito?

And later they updated about the Twistex team, and I was floored. Tim was such an important person in the field, with the probes he was using for research. Hearing that they all had died was awful.

I never got the chance to meet him, but Tim was my Uncle Pat’s brother in law and he would sometimes go with Tim on his chases. I never got to know him but from what I heard from my Uncle I knew he was a very good man and he absolutely loved what he did. I also knew that safety was his number one priority that he took very seriously so it just goes to show just how unpredictable these storms can be.

I think it’s so lovely that you got to see your friends one last time, it’s terrible that they died but from seeing all the documentaries Tim has done, he had such passion for it. If he could choose, I expect being killed doing what he loved would be ok with him, absolutely devastating for the family left behind though. I’ve just recently binged all these (thanks for putting them on KZbin) - I saw your Tweets about the probe recently & it sparked my interest to see what else you’ve done. Tim seems like he was an incredibly kind & gentle man, all you chasers seem like good people who genuinely want to help others. Best wishes Reed from England

@@djamo1969 It was downgraded but me witnessing that tornado first hand, it was the scariest experience of my life and just by the shear rotation I witnessed, it was well within the ef5 range. One of the satellite tornadoes alone was measured by Doppler radar in the area at over 300 mph. Luckily we dropped south about a mile east of notorious Reuter rd. In hind site, going east was the play but everyone was just caught off guard by it widening and turning all at once. Luckily for us, we had an addition mile between us and the tornado to, really, make the wrong decision of going south and narrowly escaping. The time frame in which we dropped south was about 5 minutes after the twistex team dropped south which if we had made the same turn that they did would have meant we’d be dead and that haunts me to this day because we drove past Reuter rd and debated on taking it.

You remember the May 03 outbreak? I was on a roadtrip to Kansas from Michigan going down I-80 in a suburban. A downed power line took us and a trucker off the highway. 5 mins later 13 tornados ran down the I-80 corridor where we would have been that night. Would have taken out me, my parents and 5 of my siblings. Sometimes it seems like guardian angels take down trees or power lines to save you. I remember watching this storm the day of and I didn’t realize how bad it was till the next day. Didn’t realize how close you guys came. Glad you made it through. I am really thankful you and so many in the chasing community were so open about lessons learned from this storm. It was really invaluable to me since I started chasing in 2013. This tornado made me bulk up my first aid kit for chasing, and get good advice from paramedics and firefighters on how to be a good volunteer first responder in these scenarios. Made me really focus on starting in areas I was very familiar with and calling in reports for unwarned storms. And I chased a lot safer, which is good because I had a small Volkswagen Jetta back then. Last year a cell I didn’t like started coming Southeast directly at our little trailer house and I had our 7 month old, cat and husband in the car sprinting southwest before it ever got near us thanks to lessons from chasing which all started with what I learned from watching Team Dominator and the Twistex Team. I really appreciate you taking the time to do education with your chasing so much. RIP Richard, Tim, Paul, and Carl.

I remember the El Reno twister I was north of okc heading south when the highway patrol stopped all traffic and said there was a massive tornado just south of us. And as we were setting there there was another trucker who decided not to stop and ended up getting blown over just a mile south of us. It was a sad day when I heard Tim Samaras and his team were KIA in that same storm. Hope you guys can bring his legacy back buy preparing others to be safer with a new show on storm chasing again! Good luck and be safe👍
