BIG SHOUT OUT TO OUR Y&F LEGENDS MEMBERS:
Mohammed Soliman,
source
most places have basements and some communities have bomb shelters
Out innovation we have created buildings that can stand through these storms
Am I too late to tell the obligatory "Brick walls stop tornado hurr hurr hurr" European-idiot-commentor-who-has-no-idea-how-tornados-actually-work-because-Europe-has-only-had-TWO-EF5-tornados-in-recorded-history to sit down and shut up?
joplin missouri is hundreds of miles from me… and something from joplin was found in my town…. rode the tornado all the way here lol
You say it is cold in the UK, but I would say it is cool in the UK. Where I live in the US we regularly see -20f during the winter also 105f in the summer so some crazy swings in temp.
FYI – The movie "Twister" came out in 1996, not 1966. I think he didn't catch himself making the mistake.
The uk actually has quite a lot of tornadoes, they are just really weak most of the time, so they usually don't really make an impact
As that Bloke how a tornado in 1997 happened JUST AFTER the release of the movie Twister is 1966?
Check out tornado alley moore Oklahoma
I have a neighbor who actually lived tho the moore f5 tornado she is a wonderful person but is so scared when we have storms with tornado warnings, hear in northeast texas
A lot of Europeans will say that if we built our homes from brick instead of wood that we would have less damage, which goes to show they have NO IDEA what living in Tornado Alley is like. Bricks can become missiles at 300 mph. If it can throw a car into the side of a building, it can decimate a brick building.
I lived in the US my whole life and experienced my first tornado a little over a year ago. EF3 (although almost an EF4). Its an experience that is truly ingrained in my memory. Forever. The most grateful thing to me after the fact are the advances we have come in tornado tracking. Between the air sirens and your phones going off, you are alerted with enough time to shelter in place. I was able to grab my shoes, keys and ID and my cat and hide in my bedroom closet. When a tornado happens, its ideal to be as close to the ground as you can. If that's not possible (I was in a third floor apartment), you find a place like a bathroom or closet away from windows and debris.
The thing that is scariest about a tornado is the silence. Right before it hit, there was this eerie silence. Then the lights flickered off like in a horror movie and then the sound of a moving train. It lasted in the span it would take to snap my fingers at the most and then it was over. We stayed in the closet until the sirens stopped. When I finally felt safe enough to wander outside I saw trees uprooted from the ground, power lines lying in the middle of the street and property damage to the buildings. But I also came to realize that tornados are unpredictable. They don't run through like a straight line, they bounce like a ball, almost.
Our building mostly had tree and mild property damage, however the apartment complex across from us was completely flattened. Surveying the damage afterwards there were areas that were completely spared but others absolutely destroyed. There really is no such thing as a tornado safe build. Its all down to luck to be honest. Its also a reason why in areas where tornados frequent you will see more wood buildings than brick. A torando will destroy either. However, flying wood causes less damage than flying brick would and its much easier to rebuild.
The whole tornado lasted about 30 minutes but traveled over 150 miles and over four towns. One person died, 50 or so injured and almost half a billion dollars in insurance claims. We live in a highly populated area and there hadn't been a tornado in over 20 years here. Downed power poles, lines, damage to the grid left some people without power for a week. However, the human response was amazing to behold and not just with emergency responders. While the national guard and police were dispatched to help with rescue efforts and clean up, they also patrolled the streets at night since many homes were without power.
What really helped me was how the community came together. The day after it happened there were food trucks from local restaurants giving out free plates of food, dry cleaners offered to wash people's clothes for free, the local LA fitness offered people a place to shower, Verizon gave all its customers free ulimited data and calls for a month, and after power was restored local businesses like Target and Loews came together to drop off care packages of food and cleaning supplies to local apartment complexes. It really helped as we lost all the food we had and we had just went grocery shopping before it happend.
The entire experience was traumatic and I still get a trauma response anytime the sirens go off (even though they go off for a tornado that is miles from where I live). However, it has made more prepared. I have an container in my closet filled with everything I could need if I have to spend a few days without power and things I own that are irreplaceable or have some sense of meaning to me. I hope to never have to use any of it, but whatever happens, I know going forward I am ready and that gives some type of peace of mind.
Just so you all know, the uk gets around 30 tornadoes a year.
The good news is, a lot of houses that have basements/go underground are in areas that get tornadoes from what I’ve experienced.
I live in the Midwest and have thought about nuclear weapons being triggered by wind or a tornado. Always wondered about this.
Look up “tornado alley – real time tornado” there are several that will come up, but it is the stories of people that went thru those storms, would be great reaction videos.
Sorry but it's very difficult to get tornado insurance when you live in Tornado Alley, So the majority of those houses that were destroyed were not insured.😥
I asked AI:
Nuclear warheads are designed with multiple safety mechanisms to prevent accidental detonation. If a tornado were to pick up a nuclear warhead, the warhead would not automatically detonate upon being dropped. Here are a few reasons why:
1. **Arming Mechanisms**: Nuclear warheads require specific arming sequences to be set off. These sequences involve multiple steps that cannot be completed accidentally. A tornado would not be able to complete these arming sequences.
2. **Safety Features**: Modern nuclear warheads are equipped with various safety features to prevent accidental detonation. These include environmental sensors, multiple redundancies, and fail-safes that ensure the warhead will not explode under unintended conditions.
3. **Impact Resistance**: Warheads are built to withstand significant physical shocks without detonating. The forces involved in being picked up and dropped by a tornado, while substantial, are unlikely to be sufficient to cause a nuclear explosion.
4. **Conventional Explosives**: While the conventional explosives within the warhead could potentially detonate if subjected to extreme conditions, this would not result in a nuclear explosion. The detonation of the conventional explosives might cause the warhead to break apart, but it would not trigger the nuclear chain reaction required for a nuclear detonation.
In summary, even if a tornado were to pick up and drop a nuclear warhead, it would not result in a nuclear explosion due to the rigorous safety mechanisms and design features intended to prevent such an occurrence.
Nukes have a concept of one point safe. That means that a fire, external explosions, dropping them, or even shooting them, will not cause a nuclear yield. However, something like trying to blow them up CAN cause a nuclear mess
What he's not telling you is that Torontos are the scariest natural disaster known to man. Tornados are living thinking Monsters that will stop and reverse directions on you or stop then make a left or right turn. Tornados have snatch babies out of mothers' arms and gently laid the infant down a mile away in a mud pile unharmed!
I have lived in Oklahoma City Oklahoma U.S. for over twenty years. The weather here is bloody amazing. I was dead center in a tornado just a couple of weeks ago. May 6th, to be precise. I was unable to run away from the security post I was at it happened so quickly. Literally 30 seconds after the Tornado Warning on my phone. This sh*t is real ya'll.
Tornados sound more like a train when they are passing overhead 😊
On average, around 30 tornadoes are reported in the UK every year according to the Met Office. On 23 November 1981, a total of 104 tornado reports – at least 90 of which are believed to have been accurate – were made between Anglesey and Norwich, the largest tornado outbreak to ever happen in the UK
UK does get tornadoes, they're just not strong. EF5 requires certain conditions, Mountains west, flat land, moist air from the south (gulf of mexico). UK is actually tornado capital of Europe
We just had a strong tornado in Barnsdal, Oklahoma
I remember the Moore, Oklahoma tornado. It was devastating.
You gotta remember too that on these days where you get huge tornados that just straight line winds will do massive damage as well. I've seen strong gusts of wind blow around anything that isn't tied down like leaves and can easily take off parts of your roof.
Girls got great eyelashes ❤
UK actually gets tornadoes and its not rare they have had plenty lol
This happened Tuesday… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ew9mlhlGO9E
I'm in TX and I just got a Tornado Watch alert as I'm watching this 😶🌫️
i help in the clean-up of the 2011 Joplin Missouri tornado. I've seen damage from a few tornadoes in my time, but NEVER on the scale of Joplin…
Tornadoes can actually debark trees. Brick buildings are not safe places to be. The bricks can literally become missiles.
I live in Alabama. If your not careful when buying insurance , some insurance companies don't cover your house fully .
This guy is brain dead but the girl was able to wrap her mind around it, shes a keeper
I am glad you reacted to this. It's genuinely one of my favorite tornado videos. And I gotta recommend the videos.
"April 27th 2011 Tornadoes: The Super Outbreak" by Disaster Documentaries and "April 27, 2011 Tornado Outbreak Montage" by RollTide1987. Both videos are so good at showing just how crazy April 27, 2011 was. I recommend the second one more, but it would be so awesome to see you react to both.
I actually volunteered as a nurse in Joplin after their 2011 tornado. These pics don't do justice to the emotional and physical detriment of those in the disaster. It's something I will never forget and never regret volunteering to help.
I grew up near Wichita. Oh man what a thing to behold.
The deadman walking is so eerie
Tornado Alley is an are that spans from South Dakota in the North down to to Texas in the South and includes and states of South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, part of eastern Colorado, part of eastern New Mexico, much of Oklahoma, and much of northern Texas. Tornado ally being where many differing cold and hot weather streams meet and collide in those states cause that area of America to make the most tornados on earth.
Has anyone ever told you guys that you look like brother and sister? haha You're both very attractive don't get me wrong, but you look related.
I don't know how old this video is but we just had a f4/f5 here in Nebraska. The Midwest has been getting slammed the last week. 4/26/2024 we had a series of tornados that day. There has been an outbreak this year
So jealous of places that don't get tornadoes at all. Yeah, ones as devastating as these are relatively rare, but it's something you have to ALWAYS be prepared for. And tornadoes don't have to be E4 or E5 to be dangerous or deadly. I don't know when a tornado directly struck my small-to-midsized city, but every time there are tornado warnings and watches going on, there's potential for something to go very, very badly.
My heart always goes out to those who have been directly affected by these terrible storms. I can't imagine losing my home, much less someone I love.
Some of the strongest tornadoes the US has seen have scoured 1/2 meter deep scars in the earth, and torn up the asphalt from roads.
While the wind is the true destructive force behind the tornado, it's what the wind is carrying that can also spell doom for structures. Wind @ 250mph is bad, a 3 ton truck flying at your house @ 250mph is worse.
If you're interested, watch "Watch: A powerful tornado in Nebraska was captured on camera". It's only 20 seconds long, but it's some of the most chills-inducing footage of a tornado I've ever seen. Happened about 3 weeks ago not real far from where I live.
