Wizard Of Oz | Tornado Scene | Restored With ALL Deleted Scenes

[@loganprice3291]

I couldn’t imagine watching this for the first time , it literally looks like there was really a tornado while they were filming.

[@classicgunstoday1972]

Growing up, even my mom and dad assumed it was footage from a real tornado it looked so real. One of the most frightening and exciting parts of the movie as a child. When it annually aired on CBS, I did not want to miss the tornado part

[@CurtisCameron]

I love way the door breaks off as she opens it, genius detail!

[@TheStarflight41]

Best tornado ever!

[@cory3171]

The sound of this tornado gives me chills, I can see why so many kids are scared by this. I've never been in a tornado before but I bet it's crazy and terrifying!

[@brianeastman3547]

Ridin the storm out

[@williamj.crofts41]

From West Ohio... Cyclone it's sight and sound is one of the worst things you can experience😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@josephastier7421]

The sound design with the high-pitched roar and microphone distortion were as realistic as the visual effects. MGM outdid themselves on this scene.

[@blockmasterflex]

I’m a kid and I’m not scared of it.. but I was scared of it when I was 5

[@damienthorne861]

Still the best....all. These years later. Made me terrified as a child and even now as a middle aged man

[@BrianRoberson-k7g]

They nailed that tornado. They put in a wall cloud, a rain wrap behind the funnel, the RFD. They gave it a believable motion. I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I read that none of the designers had seen a tornado and were going off of magazine articles.

[@ryanspencerlauderdale687]

This came out in 1939. Doppler radar didn’t come out until 1974. Can you believe it?

[@paco_WX]

@@ryanspencerlauderdale687yea its wild

[@josephastier7421]

The way it moves and kicks up dust look *better* than the real thing.

[@mrslinarcos]

I read that meteorologists studied this tornado. Of course they knew it wasn't real. But the way the special effects team did this reminded them of the photos of the tornadoes they had seen in photos or videos that were available at the time. Long before storm chasing, Doppler radar and the satellites we have now.

[@paustin47able]

Lol... Ironically, there was an actual tornado that took place in Oklahoma, some 40 years ago that model this cyclone here. It's in old tornado archives. I think it's called the Wizard of Oz tornado 1981...

[@mrslinarcos]

@@paustin47able I didn't know that.

[@robwelch22]

Just a note of thanks. Really well done. The reverse and forward of Dorothy and keying the lost video was very creative.

[@robwelch22]

BTW, this is A. Arnold "Buddy" Gillespie's Grandson. AAG is the person who worked on this scene and many others while head of the MGM Special Effects Department.

[@georgieippolito9924]

Its actually a 35 foot long sock with a crane that moves it back and fourth while the sock spins. a fan blows dust, crinkled confetti and air through the sock giving the dabree effect. This was a expensive prop!

[@paustin47able]

Cordell, OK, 1981. A tornado hit just outside this town took on the "Wizard of Oz" cyclone appearance...

[@endermanwithalowercasee]

Just looked it up, it really did, wow

[@Jaymindrew1990]

The Joplin, Xenia, Wichita Falls, Tuscaloosa, and Moore tornadoes got together one night and decided to scare each other. They did so by telling Wizard of Oz Tornado stories. I don’t think a movie tornado has struck as much terror into the hearts of people as the Oz Twister has. Both Twister movies and similar can’t hold a candle to the Oz twister! 🌪️

[@williamj.crofts41]

Hello there....born in Xenia Ohio.... Known as locally as "the land of the evil wind"

[@PaulMcElveen]

I cannot fathom why MGM deleted any of the cyclone/twister/tornado footage from the classic movie! It was absurd and ridiculous! It was a huge mistake! Can't fathom why MGM deleted any of the original dialogue scenes, music and song and dance numbers! I am so glad it still exists! I own this on videotape, Laser Disc, DVD and Blue Ray! Thank you for posting and sharing this!

[@Jennifer-do1cu]

What did MGM do exactly?

Because it was the right thing to do.

[@Blackrose_Gamer-tm3qx]

When I saw the clip of the tornado coming towards the house, I was like, they should have kept that in the movie, and imagine watching this in vr

[@foxrexproductions1857]

This childhood fear still keeps up with me today. The hollow sounds of the twister as it slowly crawls itself closer yet still maintained in the background. Always terrified yet fascinates me.

[@katiejean6493]

I remember being on the edge of my seat when I first saw this as a kid. The way it got so dark so quick & how strong the wind was. At least with a hurricane you have time to get away, but tornados are just a whole other beast. It's hits a bit differently as a grown up when you think about Dorothy's aunt & uncle & the farm hands all huddled down in that celler listening to the twister come roaring closer knowing that she was outside somewhere & all scared for her. Can you imagine when they all came out and found her unconscious in her room? She must have been out a while given that her uncle says they were worried she was going to leave them. As for that deleted footage as the twister overtakes the house, while its really impressive, I can see why they cut it out. Given how close it gets to the house and then the dust just seems to implode around it, people could easily assume the farm was destroyed and that Dorothy may have died and the whole thing was her in heaven or something.

[@CyberstarChuck]

I like your theory on why they didn’t use the deleted scene and that is possibly what happened

[@StevenDelTaco]

One of my favorite scenes of the movie!!!

[@DraketheHighlander]

That guy milking a cow inside of the tornado is a legend right there LoL 🤣

[@planetcoasterboycj7274]

I wonder if this Flying Cow scene is what inspired the more famous Flying Cow scene in Twister??

[@TothanCrawk]

I like this edit better, makes it look less like a dream and more like she was knocked out but everything after really could've happened. I know that they wanted it to be ambiguous but the final cut made it seem like it was leading more into it was a dream, where as this edit is more 50/50.

[@Kwamecc]

I love the twister scene

[@susieevans7064]

Never realized how good this scene was. I want to share it with my young grandsons to scare the bageebies out of them!😂 come on!

I always thought that it was the west witch because that’s mrs gultchs counterpart but if you look closely you can see the ruby slippers which means that Margaret Hamilton must’ve played the east witch too She was just never credited for it.

[@HipsterBlood]

Nothing will ever beat practical effects.

[@ReggieClayton]

I had a dream that this very tornado was coming closer and closer to the house I was in and I was in the house all by myself so I was looking for somewhere to hide.

[@scr1231]

OMG that was something else.

[@blockmasterflex]

The music of the end of the scene so loud and it doesn’t even sound like it’s from 1939..💀💀💀

[@Gigrunt887]

Man a torando just crashed down near my house it was a ef2 it destroyed some trailer parks and destroyed a fire station luckily no one died in wv this is the most dangerous torando since the 1940s

[@sebastienmolano]

Are there two tornadoes? Becuase each scene has the tornado moving in a different direction.

[@stephennewton1284]

I let everybody know that in the comments below may not know about the tornado scene when you watch the behind the scenes of wizard of oz they said for that scene it’s created by Arnold Bubbie Gillespie he is a head of special effects at MGM Hollywood on more than 180 feature films the tornado was a 5 foot long muslin shocking photograph with miniature of a Kansas farm and fields and he was the one who came up that idea for the scene because there special effects crew had brought in a cotton muslin tube and didn’t move like a real tornado because they have lots of fans on the set to make it move in the background where the backyard is over the fields they heavy equipment and tools and they use it for harvesting the corn all the tractors and hey bills they brought in they had to keep it in the barn not to be flying around the part Dorthy had saw is one her uncle’s cows and chickens got picked up because all the gates and cages they use it was very too light is very easy to pick up those made from straw and is easy get distory for the cows they use sled and sling also mechanized to if one of them got untied that’s means is lose if that cow did not make it they will lift up easily if you have the right tools for it and if you have a scarecrow is tied to ropes and nails are attached to the ground and even the wood is tied to it if that brakes it will definitely be broken in half and it definitely be lifted up easily because is made from hey bills and straw and is very too light is easily to be blown away in it that scene with scarecrow where they were at the castle where that wicked witch of the west her broom she has made from straw is very easily to burn the whole thing because sometimes scarecrows are afraid of fire if you burn a scarecrow on its wooden post it will definitely get destroyed from heated air and very dry drought to I took grade 8 science I know what hot air Meets cold air is when worm air meets cold air mass the worm air rises since it is lighter at high altitude it cools and the water vapour it contains coldness this type of front is called a worm front it generates nimbostratus clouds which can result in moderate temperature and humidity and rain and wind to a twister is a type of a cloud can be moderate forms from a tropical climate from a large thunderclouds with worm air and humid air rises whiles cool air falls along with wind and rain and hail to that cause spinning air currents inside a cloud sometimes if we are in a lightning storm that will cause a forest fires if the grass are dry from the sun it will make it to be black ash from the humidity is same thing with hurricanes and twisters and Tornados to for floods they are not like them when H20 know as water it will move it’s own and rushing in and cause leaks and damage pipes and even will get into your drywalls to watch out for those to I have a a u tuber I’m fellowing there basement got flooded with water in there basement theatre room got distory and the water was rushing through down of the side of there house got flooded with water got trapped and then when they the window braking it had bursted all the glass was everywhere with nails to and then they remodeled the whole thing back together so what say about tropical storms you can help out and help them with there remodeling there homes and those are homeless they need help to
