This tornado formed 8 miles north of Laramie, WY on June 6, 2018 and is shown here crossing U.S. Route 30, the historic Lincoln Highway. It rapidly intensified, tearing up grass and dirt as it traveled over mainly open fields. The tornado followed the contour of the land up and over the Laramie mountain range for over 45 minutes before dissipating. It was rated an EF-3 by the National Weather Service. - Наука та технологія
I like how people just keep driving by like they don't even care 😂
It’s like slowing down to drive over a tiny bump on like a bridge. You don’t want to get inside the tornado.
Im sure they care, theyd rather just not stop lol
Yes wth
Oh, yeah! We see tornadoes on the daily! Also, fun fact: if a tornado ever appears to not be moving, its actually coming straight for you!!
Probably texting
aw that's nice of him, he even stopped to let the tornado pass by. what a nice guy
Lmaoo
what a gentleman
Yea that was real cute of him to do that
😂
😆🤣
One of the best tornado videos I've ever seen. Clear, no moving camera, no hysterical screaming. Thanks
Согласен 👍
Agreed! Lol...
You threw all the dumbest people I've ever seen in this comic section. So if a person doesn't show any sign of worry and can't scream that it's okay? Do you even know how strong turns are and how much damage they can cost to a person? Think before you speak. People can scream and can move the cameras as much as they want if it's to get out of danger..
Disagreed
You 3 are the dumbest people I've ever seen in this comment section
It's crazy how something so violent can appear to be so peaceful from just a bit of a distance
Gif!
This is like the most picturesque tornado ever (if that’s the correct word). It’s both scary and beautiful.

yeah i thought that too haha
Yeah
And he didn’t feel the need to yell and talk through the entire thing, well done, thank you, stunning.
Some of Peco Hank's tornado vids are good like that, though his commentary is in a quiet voice sometimes. Like he's reading a story to a child.
@@2dheethbar yoo hes the goat
Maybe he’s by himself. No need to talk or yell.

I love how many of these super photogenic tornadoes have such a relatively small radius of impact. The fact that you can park just outside this little cell and experience such peace and quiet while simultaneously looking at complete chaos at the foot of that tornado as it moves. Incredible feat of nature.
As someone from the UK who has never seen any sort of substantial tornado ever, this just looks uncanny
Damn that is literally some of the absolute best footage of a tornado I have ever seen.
There’s much better out there

If you are far from it. I'm guessing that the more brown it turns the more destruction it's making.
This is the most outstanding footage of a tornado I have ever seen.

I love how everyone was driving by as if it’s normal
I love how so many people just casually drove right past it on the highway.
"Ah crap I'm late for work"
Exactly. I said the same. Lol! They're just like, Oh please. That's just fancy wind. LMFA😂 Fearless! 👀 👍🏾
I notice people doing that in a lot of tornado videos. I'm guessing it's a mixture of them being used to seeing tornadoes and also understanding that they should keep moving so as to not cause a backup
They be speeding that’s for damn sure, and we can’t blame them.
Noway
A clear windshield? No screaming? HD footage? No rain? Talk about a jackpot tornado video

@@daveellis5100 and not shaky cam!
No screaming or yelling in the background. Wonderful view
That 1st shot of the meso-cloud is simply awe-inspiring..., most videos just show the tornado, but you captured the whole scenario; impressive! I'm from Ol' New England so we rarely get such storms..., except the 2011 Springfield, Ma EF-3..., some incredible videos of that one on-line.
This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen
Same facts to the max
You're Goddamn right!

This has to be the most self-aware tornado. I always imagined they were wild and out of control.

How do you mean, self aware?
They are, they just don’t appear to be from distance.

James hammett that is one of the best tornado footages I've seen the Supercell structure was amazing the tornado is extremely photogenic excellent catch
Full development, no rain, clear shot What an incredible shot!
How does it feel to be verified?

If that's the route to his home is he has to go...what other choice he has. Perhaps he could have waited may be..
Also there is some kind of a morbid curiosity I think
single most photogenic tornado i've personally ever come across. Love it.
holy crap, dude -- if I didn't know you were filming a live event ... the colors, movement ... it looks like one stunning piece of CGI work, like, award winning!
Midwesterners when they see a tornado: "Oh that's cool. Anyway."
Right. Ha.
This is nothing compared to what our fathers went through everyday to school !
@James Lough Don't forget the deep snow/burning sun and the fact that they always went uphill. Always!

Scary As Hell
Wimp 🍼
This footage is absolutely terrifying. 🌪💔 Watching the tornado cross the highway is both awe-inspiring and deeply frightening. My heart goes out to everyone in the path of such destructive forces. It's a stark reminder of the unpredictable power of nature. Please stay safe out there, everyone. ⛈🌪
I’ve always been so scared of tornadoes but they’re so fascinating to look at like this !!

I adore storms and all weather, thank you for the video, it's important
Tip to anybody who has never seen a tornado before,
If the tornado looks like it’s staying in place, it means it’s going in your direction
Ooh 😲, thanks for the tip...here in Vermont we VERY rarely have tornadoes, even then they’re not very strong. But I’m very interested in them non the less.
dragonriderfye1 np
Damn this scared me 😅 thx
Holy hell, thanks man, never new this. I’m from New York, so I’ve never really seen Tornadoes before
Good to know. We don't get them often in my neck of the woods, but we do get them and I didn't know that.
All the other cars on the road: Ehhhh, we can outrun that thing! It’s just like beating the train at the crossing! LOL
Well tornadoes on average go 10-20 miles per hour. At most it can go 60 or 70. So cars can definitely outrun it

Edit: also if you get caught even close to a tornado good luck getting out of its wind currents as you are trying to escape
If you get close to a tornado you have to run away
No biggie Just another day in tornado alley 😂🌪️ ⛈️🛣️🚙🛣️🚗. AMAZING footage!
If a tornado seems to be "still" it's moving towards you.
Looking for this comment
@@yaoiforlifewheresmycomrade524 same!
I see this comment on every single tornado video lmao
I actually have friends at school who didnt know this until i told them
This rule only applies to the uninitiated. No need to tell a professional storm chaser, who likely has radar onboard to know whether or not this is actually the case.
HOW CAN SOMEONE NOT BE SCARED OF BEING THAT CLOSE TO A TORNADO!?
Miles away actually.
Because this person is a trained professional who knows exactly what they are doing
Not sure all I know is that I'd be shitting myself

Thank you for the GREAT footage.
Aww what a nice guy he’s waiting so that the tornado comes to him and be friends such an sweet guys
Best tornado video I’ve ever seen. Perfect clarity, everything so calm. No rain or hail no distractions
Things change when you get closer, of course.
Yeah some ppl are brave enough to pass by
😦🤯
I love how the entire population of Laramie drove by the tornado.
Probably used to it. Probably better driving around to make sure you avoid the tornado so that it doesn’t come to your house.
could be cgi animation .
That's What I Call ignorant whether they're your use to it or not no one can ever predict how that tornadoes going to turn.

This is one of the most beautiful tornadoes. It’s clearly extremely powerful or the sculpting is something else! The sharp edges.
Marvelous video! Plus I know those dash-cams make everything look far away so you were pretty damned close! Well done ;)
I still think it seems impossible that the wind in the sky can get so jacked up that it turns into a funnel of destruction on the ground
Yea
Fr
If there is a thunderstorm that is able to produce hail, then it is able to produce a tornado.
Seems that way until you're in one. Anyways that's how I got my boat. Of course it was a bugger getting it off my roof.
@@maxi15 who ever told you that is a moron lmao. Hail is nothing that precedes a tornado nor is a shit ton of wind. A tornado is formed from the clashing of air temps and gravitational pull and wind directions and more. Lol you think hail means there’s going to be a tornado lmao
It started off so neat, then turned into a massive dial of dirt.
WHAT AHHHHHHHHHHH
It lost strength having to carry all that dirt, kind of like dirt clogs up a drain. Maybe that’s the key to killing tornados - throw dirt at the problem. :P
@@AdamsBrew78 lol
That's all the stuff it's sucking off the ground. Cars, buildings, fences, dirt, hopefully not animals and people, but that happens, too.
@@kellieheckert4443 Thankfully, the description says the tornado formed in open fields. I don't think any houses/people got harmed.
What a beautiful scenery 😍 i love that darkness... Look at the sky, cloud ... Just feel it! Amazing!
Damnnn yessss
Well done - seeing a tornado is on my bucket list
Love the color change of the funnel when it starts hoovering up the ground.
I appreciate your comment. Been on a 3 hour tornado binge, this video def shows the color change the best so far

@@youreworthyourweightinavoc7189 omg I was thinking like the tornado looked like it was drinking coffee lol 😂
My 6 year old called this a latte tornado because when it starts sucking up the dirt it looks like the milk and coffee before you stir it 😂
I’m scared of tornados but this is actually really cool😁
The way that cloud looked in the beginning, I was almost expecting a city sized spaceship to come our of it. Wow
Its like a small city if u try measuring the tornado with the clouds

how to survive a tornado

Took my breath away! I never saw a tornado this up close, extremely beautiful.I was completely memorized. Thank you so much for taking me along for the ride! WOW ❤️🦋
Hello 🐥🐤🐣🦋🐛🦋🦋🦋🦋
Tornado at 5:30 is lagging lol. Like jerking to spin but the grass is moving fine.....
3:45 That is one of the most beautiful tornados ever captured on video. It's so perfectly shaped and lit on all sides by the ambient light 👌.
Awesome and terrifying in equal measure. This is the best footage i've ever seen. No endless talking, no dramatic music. Just the power of nature. From a UK perspective it seems unreal. Nice one!
The only thing that looks terrifying to me is that the sky is cut in two sides, a kinda clear one and a grey almost black one it's so terrifying
This happens a lot in Texas and let me tell you, it’s definitely unnerving to say the least
*ОГО ! У а меня тоже кошки и ещё есть стая крыс, заходите в гости посмотреть)))*
Clouds in 3D…stunning
What if it's the dragon on one side and like another dragon on that same side??? Better look out Samantha. They hate women named Samantha.
Hey, do you have a minute? I uhh. . . I kinda feel bad for Samantha. . . Ya know I mean she's got that exam next week and her cousin is back on Skooma. . . Now she's got a full blown scales for skin two winged fire emitting from the esophagus dragon that specifically wants her and no one else all up in the sky and making people nervous. . . I just feel she needs our support right now, Jillary.
*chihuahua looks concerned and kinda shaky*
I mean. . . Oh I was hoping you'd say that! Come on let's go tell the others we should just throw her outside and let the dragon have her so we can go back to sleep I just, 7 hours was not enough I'm glad we can both agree this is just too much for us to handle right?
*chihuahua makes scoffing noises and shakes in excitement*
I totally accept that. And you're right. She's the reason we cant trust Carol anymore! Let's get this dragon it's sacrifice so we can go to sleep!
@@thephoenix6237 okay
Ok this is relaxinggggg I love it ❤️
thats scary but at the same time incredible
they're so terrifyingly beautiful...to stand before the awesome power of it...i couldn't imagine it. storm on my friend, storm on.
It’s surreal but cool
The eerie green hue that the clouds have before and during a tornado haunts me. I've only been in a few but that's a feature I've noticed every time. Puts a knot in my stomach.
Holy hell why is it green??
I agree!! When I lived in KS many years ago I had been through a few myself. That color always makes me feel uneasy. Worst one was 2000 or 2001, was driving to get back home and sirens started; looked up and there is that greenish and purplish color. I was 3miles away if not closer when I saw the tornado. Still clear as day in my mind. Never want to be that close again.
ditto here...in Metro Detroit. Haven't had one for many years, a Gustnado most recently that twisted tree tops and fucked up cars, but the real deal that happened: the sky was a sick green on the way. Scary as hell.
Where can I see that eerie green hue?
Because the clouds are intense that's the reason they look green.
The fact that he went close to the tornado and was so calm
Amazing! Everyone else is moving away from the tornado and he's moving towards it!
All the other cars: *stops and turns around* Him:Eh I lived a good live

Maybe it is unreal Petter Blomqvist. Who knows? They did add some extra "parked" cars which helps convert some skeptics. Last I heard they were trying to convince us that a tornado can have a swath of destruction thousands of yards wide. BTW: Did you see the film or just the fake news?

Stark contrast from the tornadoes I've seen footage of in the south. This seemed so calm even when close. No strong wind feeding the updraft, no rain wrap, no satellite tornadoes. Seemed surreal compared to horrifying.
this is a normal wyoming tornado. the dry air makes for an amazing tornadic experience. I saw plenty of clear af tornadoes working the missile field. it is almost surreal to see it though

I live in Laramie. Saw this bad bitch in person. One of the most perfect systems to come through. No injuries or deaths. No major damage unless you saw the garage it hit. Beautiful video of it!
What I find remarkable is how the tornado looks like it is just plodding along, barely moving but you know it is causing major destruction.
Great video, I was surprised to see one car drive by you as if he was out for a drive without a care in the world.
Bring me back to my straight out of high-school tornado chasing days
That is the most graceful tornado I've ever seen coming out of the USA. So clean and quiet.
😮😮😨😰😱😇
Gotta love Wyoming, that massive Tornado caused like $17.50 worth of damage lol
Lol
Well now what about that one thing that it destroyed? Did you hear about that? It was every bit of 30 to 40. Not specifically anything just numbers. It destroyed numbers. It took the number 3 and the number 4 and it took them from us!!! It was the dragon!!! It made 0 watch!!! We gotta alert the guards!!!
