Now this is a first class vid. Up close footage and pure storm sounds without some deranged lunatic ruining it by screaming at the top of his lungs. Well done. Thank you. Excellent video.
Actually, if you watch the 2-part "Nemesis" episode of Tornado Chasers Season 2 (entire season is on Reed's YT channel), you'll notice that Reed was at the QUIETEST he's ever been for THIS tornado, despite this tornado being one of the CRAZIEST storms he's ever intercepted (I say "storm" because I think the Supercell that spawned the tornado, doesn't get enough credit as a whole. It was like a hybrid Supercell/MCS/QLSCS type thing).
Without a doubt, the best footage I've seen of the genesis of this incredible tornado. Most of the footage I've seen, you can't even see the tornado because of the rain wrap. This thing was an absolute beast.
Thanks for posting. This is an angle I wasn’t able to see before during the initial rain wrapping development. Not trying to make it sound like I was there I just watch lots of film 😁.
That powerful inflow (I guess that's what it's called) that so many chasers got caught up in and managed to escape is to this day some of the most remarkable, yet frightening tornado footage I've ever seen. It looked like really windy fog and I've never seen any other tornado footage that was even remotely similar to that. The fact that you can occasionally see these satellite tornadoes (probably the size of F2 or 3 tornadoes based on the old Fujita scale) dancing around this massive primary vortex makes the whole scene just incredibly eerie and menacing.
It's too bad the tornado was too strong to intercept in its early stages. Boy, it started a monster and ended a monster. Keep up the good work. I still can't believe Tim died in that tornado.
One of these days now that technology has progressed to the point we can actually make wind readings out via dollar rather than damage path, this should’ve been an EF5. I genuinely think the folks that rate these tornados are afraid to drop an EF5 rating now like people were afraid to say tornado on the air 60 years ago
That's a very unique-looking atmosphere later in the video, it almost looks like fog. Was that the area of inflow covering square miles? I know this was a massive tornado, but I've never seen anything like that around any other tornado, or storm. Either way, very cool video. Thanks for sharing. :)
It looks like Reno Street along the bottom of the airport. Which makes sense that they were at the back of the notch. It's like the inflow and updraft have created a relatively turbulent free area .
Mind blowing, incredibly awe striking and profoundly sad. Much respect to all storm chasers whom feel committed and obligated to pursue these all consuming devastating energy beings in hope of understanding the mund if the beast better to serve warning and helping create safety for the lives of those who are in its devouring path. True storm chasers are so under rated and under appreciated. Thank you all so much for your service to humanity for greatest highest good of everyone involved chase safe beautiful souls.

So they arrived from the North expecting to put the Dominator vehicles in the path of the tornado as it headed North East (the usual path of the tornado) I guess they were a bit surprised that it headed South East initially.
Cancel my last request. I just took a close look at Google satellite and located where you were. There are two buildings in the latter part of your video --on the south side of Reno Rd from west of S. Airport to east of S. Country Club. I found both in the satellite photo.
Were those first shots from Heaston Road? That really is some of the best close-in shots I have seen of this event. You were way too close to those satellites. I wouldn't be surprised if the whole rotating system was mainly big well formed subs jostling for space and swapping around. Before the weather channel's car was hit, it caught a good glimpse of a train of well defined vortices that seemed to slingshot each other along. I wonder if each one's entrained mass of debris was sufficient to keep them all centrifuging around each other in the huge girth that made up this monster?
Following around someone who is literally a Doctor in tornadoes in a specially modifying vehicle designed to take enormous damage is both very smart yet incredibly dumb at the same time.
I am interested in the satellite tornado near the end of your video, after about 4:10 on the tape counter. What road were you on, about where were you on that road, and do you recall the time? I was also there that day but did all of my SLR photography from Jensen Road --nothing close or dramatic (posted on my David Hoadley, Facebook). Thanks.
Apparently there were to or three of those. So big and strong that they were tornadoes themselves in strength, with the main much bigger and more powerful original in the center.
With a tornado like this its hard to tell, the one on the left looks like its part of the main rotation judging by how fast it moved, the right one I'm not to sure about. I've seen footage of this tornado with subvortices of that size, but its hard to get a sense of distance through video
actually on second thought I'm fairly certain both were suction vortices, the main funnel you see to the left was only part of the main rotation, and in fact at any time there were several vortices of that size rotating around the main funnel, at some pretty ludicrous speeds too
I assume it is before it did that little U turn at 81 because these guys made it out..Reed Timmer and Team stay focused and humble..We love you crazy fuckers
Inside Mega Tornado El Reno National Geographic ua-cam.com/video/KFlSmmHMw0o/v-deo.html Enjoy ~ watch from beganning to end it was incredable also mostly dash cam and extra but yes tonado is 2.6 wide towards middle and then video concludes with tornado ending.
erez aarons "gods power right there", what you mean by saying that ? seems like you think that 1) god created this tornado, or you just think that its 2) as strong as "gods power", i hope you're not just another brainwashed cristian kid...
Funky Pickleboy Reed Timmer is a savage! Saw him once at a bar in Norman just get hammered off his ass. But gotta give the man his props though he pulled the hottest chick in the place by telling her he had a F5 Tornado in his pants and it was about to touch down in her mouth.
All of that equipment and can't even mount some stable cameras to the vehicle. You should invest in those on that vehicle since it's main purpose is tracking and documenting storms.
Michael Ross Wow, dude. Unnecessary .He’s right. It really was categorized as an EF3 because it didn’t eat much. Google it. Grow up and learn how to admit when you’re wrong.
I now question if weather mod was used in this storm, Yes we can control weather using Haarp! This storm is just too big and freakish. R.i.p Twistex team and others
You know your day's gonna be a bad one when you walk outside and see the Dominator parked and hunkered down in front of the house.
Now this is a first class vid. Up close footage and pure storm sounds without some deranged lunatic ruining it by screaming at the top of his lungs. Well done. Thank you. Excellent video.
Shut up. You don't get the critique someone's reaction to an actual monster, as if you could fare any better.
Reed Timmer was unusually quiet in the Tornado Chasers: Nemesis episode aside from that baseball hailstone moment
4:24 for that famous scene.
Reed must have occupied the other Dominator-I don't hear any screaming in this vid.
niagra898 I usually don’t watch Dominator videos for that very reason but this was a good one!
The screaming was for TV
HAH! I can hear Reed yelling at 1:45...
Actually, if you watch the 2-part "Nemesis" episode of Tornado Chasers Season 2 (entire season is on Reed's YT channel), you'll notice that Reed was at the QUIETEST he's ever been for THIS tornado, despite this tornado being one of the CRAZIEST storms he's ever intercepted (I say "storm" because I think the Supercell that spawned the tornado, doesn't get enough credit as a whole.

Thanks for the heads up. I will put the volume back up.

Awesome watching how at the end you see 1 tornado then 2,3,4 and 5 all blend into one massive wedge. Incredible footage here.
That powerful inflow (I guess that's what it's called) that so many chasers got caught up in and managed to escape is to this day some of the most remarkable, yet frightening tornado footage I've ever seen.

It really has a feel of the end of the world or some Cloverfield type monster in the haze. Unreal.
It's too bad the tornado was too strong to intercept in its early stages. Boy, it started a monster and ended a monster. Keep up the good work. I still can't believe Tim died in that tornado.
At the time, he didn't know he was looking the 2nd most powerful tornado on the planet earth.
what was the first?
tri-state Tornado@@knokn3777
Every time that I look at this footage, I get awestuck. Thank you for this video.
Reed was inside the bears cage that’s the perception and hail you go through before you see the tornado 🌪 awesome footage
Hats off to you !!!
You drove right through the largest tornado in recorded history... I.. what.. how...
Nothing more dangerous than a wedge tornado 🌪 wrapped in rain that becomes invisible.

Thank you for this. This is a real man
We will miss u twistex

2:40 driving casually inside a tornado.
Reed, when are you going to give the people what they want and do another season of tornado chasers?
Technically, they are doing such now, where you can rent said tornado chasing videos. You have to pay for them online.
j.michael glascock Reed told me to tell you- piss off!
It looks like you pulled in behind and rode the inflow? Amazing footage!

Wow really nice video! I suppose it wasn't safe to get close to this tornado in anything less than a dominator...
AngelOfEvenfall You would need nothing less than a TIV.
tank cars are the best at tonados, and if they are mounted to the ground, they are like :nope: to tonados. love the cars :)
You were chasing it, instead of the other way around, like most.

I’m thinking the guys in the lead pickup truck have more nerve than the ones in the TVN!
Great video really appreciate it very much stay safe
By 4:24 these guys are inside the bears cage with subvortices rotating next to them. Talk about serious nerves.
Am I seeing one or two satellite tornadoes at 4:00? And are satellite tornadoes different from subvortices?
With a tornado like this its hard to tell, the one on the left looks like its part of the main rotation judging by how fast it moved, the right one I'm not to sure about. I've seen footage of this tornado with subvortices of that size, but its hard to get a sense of distance through video

wow i love LOVE the tank like car. the biggest ::nope:: to tornado inside and out.
Anyone have an idea of around what time it was toward the end of this video (when the multiple vortices are visible)?
I assume it is before it did that little U turn at 81 because these guys made it out..Reed Timmer and Team stay focused and humble..We love you crazy fuckers
This footage is incredible. Are there any other videos from this particular chase out there?

Enjoy ~
watch from beganning to end it was incredable also mostly dash cam and extra but yes tonado is 2.6 wide towards middle and then video concludes with tornado ending.
There are tons. Just check you tube
EF3.....tornado wasn't strong enough to produce ground scouring....or produce any impressive damage
I thought there was ground scouring and winds recorded up to 295mph. It was only rated EF3 because it was in a rural area
This is the same force that created us, so actually we are witnessing ourselves. Enjoy!
Dominator ftw...
thats aamazing thats gods power right there
gods power to kill 3 legendary storm chasers ? god is so great..
did i ever say that ?
erez aarons "gods power right there", what you mean by saying that ? seems like you think that 1) god created this tornado, or you just think that its 2) as strong as "gods power", i hope you're not just another brainwashed cristian kid...
hahah your crazy go do something better with your life other than criticizing people on youtube hahahahahah

+AsylumSaint This was from my personal camera. The footage from the mounted cameras was offered in a web series from TVNWeather.com

thank you for the website.
