^^^ The Oklahoma Kid is a tornado expert.  Storm chasing/dodging in Oklahoma starts off as a 4th grade core subject.

At the 2:36 minute mark of this video, a meterologist that works at the UW (met him at the YMCA) said that I had a tornado on my film, but I panned away without realizing it (figures) Taken 3 weeks ago in Hugo, MN (1 dead, 14 injured, 51 homes destroyed.) We were 1/2 mile from the destruction.

This one (below) stopped rotating naturally AFTER I ran and grabbed my camera out of the camper last year near Bemidji, MN. One eventually touched the ground just North of this location.

Storm chasing is something I'd love to do if I could get paid for it.

Somebody ban this dude for posting such boring videos.

Actually, we'd rather see you banned for breaking Rule #6.    Ripsnort's garage is Legendary enough to keep him in here.

No way was that a tornado... a slight microburst at the best.

Mac

dont know if it was or wasnt.
But this is certainly one of the best Tornado vidss I've ever seen.
