- Опубліковано 3 лип 2024
- We headed to Tornado Alley to meet extreme meteorologist Reed Timmer and check out how he drives directly into the world's deadliest storms!
His SRV Dominator 3 is a $750,000 beast converted from a Ford F350, ready to tackle anything Mother Nature throws its way. We drove into the eye of the storm and got to experience chasing Twisters first hand!
Special thanks to @ReedTimmerWx for taking us on a storm chase and for providing footage for the episode.

Really gotta respect how this guy is just living his best life. Passionate about what he does.
hilarious how "this guy" is totally unknown to you lol. I 100% understand why you don't know him - and I mean no ill intentions to you - but this guy is literally legendary in the storm chasing scene.
@@ImproveHumanity I think you're wildly overestimating the knowlege of people in the storm chasing community by anyone outside of the community.
@@lildashboi Exactly. You just proved my point. People who know tornados and tornado chasing know who he is. Nobody else does.
Reed Timmer bud.... on of the most iconic storm chasers ever next to the other tank vehicle tiv 2
What happened to his friends?
Ironically one of the coolest cars ever to be on the Supercar Blondie channel.

@@Xmc1-0 Wow, besides the Dominator the TIV is another throwback name I LOVE to hear!! (Binge watch Tornado Chasers, S1 - S5) 😍👍✨
You've got Konigseggs, Lamborghinis, Bugattis and Ferraris and they are all quite similar. But what can't they do? Drive into a tornado and sit there. So glad you gave Team Dominator a chance to take you on this experience to branch out to different areas of the the motor world!

Reed Timmer is a national treasure. His contributions to weather science is astounding.
Weather science or rather- weather adventure?
😂😂 that's a good joke. The only thing he has contributed to is near death ,ptsd, nightmares and hearing loss being in a vehicle with him and that screechy voice.

He actually sat inside the tiv 2 I saw that video
As Oklahomans we literally have jokes about seeing the Dominator and Reed lolol
IMAGINE CALLING IT A TANK. NOTHING ABOUT THIS IS A TANK. BOZOS.
Kinda like when we in the SE (Florida in my case) happen to see The Weather Channels' Jim Cantore in the the area....lol
As in "if you see Reed racing down the road in Dominator, _go the other way!_ " ...?
@@Flyby-1000Fun fact, Jim and Reed chased together a while back on Reed’s show (if you werent aware)
what is the joke?

Fun thing for all the people that dont know Reed
He has his own humor, He´s super energetic, he is entausiastic like no tomorrow, He has passion for his job and he tries to seek knowledge to keep people safe

I love Reed! Never Stop Chasing🚫🛑🏃♂️🌪
Reed is a little too shouty, too excitable. I prefer Pecos Hank.
HE IS LOUD BECAUSE HE HAS TO BE HEARD ABOVE THE DIN OF THE TORNADO
3 months later; was starting to think you guys would never upload this lol
Still super stoked you guys got to see Reed and the Doms. These vehicles are frankly the only reason why I really got into tornadoes and storm chasing in general. :D
I can’t can’t get over how young Chuck Norris still looks!
Right... how'd he go from the dude in the cap n gown to Chuck Norris 😅😂
Yes 😅
Was about to say something similar, that that is like his brother or something 😂
😅😅
Yeah what he said!!!😂
My mom’s Yorkie was named Gizmo and lived to 16 years old. Just passed earlier this year. Best dog ever! Also had to ride in front seat. Only difference was he was a boy dog. Missing him all the time.
Love my dogs. Sorry about your Yorkie. ❤😢
With all the exotics you've reviewed, this is probably on of the coolest vehicles you've shown on this channel.

Where did the original Supercar Blondie go? i miss her :(
Except.. she is Not.Too scared.Its just kinda bad..wanting to capitalize($$) on putting someone else at risk Mrs.Blonde(in talking about this wonderfully brave girl she sent instead).
@@jannimcflurry8252 probably sold the channel lol
@@mentor_bajramino, she just hired a team.
Dominator 4, needs a inflatable ring around the bottom, so when the air suspension is at its lowest, the ring would inflate and create a total seal under the truck.
Dom 3
that's smart
I just seen this last week twice, it was headed south on i29 toward Sioux Falls and then I seen it again going east on i80 toward Des Moines. What a crazy rig to see going down the road
Long ago saw a weather rig for tornadoes and such even back then amazing. But... was surprised at it was here😮 Lucky you to see this I think
Gabby is awesome!❤More Gabby please Blondie!!!!

Think I drove through a tornado earlier this year by accident. Was doing a ubereats and I didn’t realize it went straight into the path of a tornado. It was at night so it was hard to see. Then the wind and rain got so violent I couldn’t see the road I ended up in a ditch. I think that’s what saved me. Then I drove out and got hit by golf ball sized hail, which did more damage than the tornado. Luckily it was an open field of grass because there wasn’t any debris.
I hate nighttime tornadoes.
Damn... you lucky didn't get spear'd by a rogue tree...
Did you still manage to deliver the food?
@@ScaroMKasking the real questions 😂
Red is a blast to watch live on UA-cam. while the season itself for major tornados is over its crazy just how intense some of the stuff they get into is. Double Tornados, Crazy flying Debris and the the fact that in the face of violence of mother nature at times he has the knowledge and skills to safely navigate it all.
OMG great tvideo - so happy you got to enjoy the Reed Timmer experience lol! He's intense, goofy, brilliant and he and the other crazy cool storm chasers are a massive asset to the entire weather industry!
Small mistake: tornadoes dont usually last for more than an hour. They do last longer in the US than somewhere like Canada or the UK, but rarely an hour. You also said they have winds between 200-300 mph, so it feels like you're describing the strongest tornadoes, not the average tornado. The average tornado probably won't reach 200 mph. Cool video though.
That was one of the coolest things I ever saw. I would pay thousands of dollars to be in this car in a tornado. Best Supercar Blondie episode till now.
Actually the tiv-2 is better
IMAGINE CALLING IT A TANK. NOTHING ABOUT THIS IS A TANK. BOZOS.
@@12ijg6 you cant really drive into a tornado with it, its deploy time is 27 seconds, u have to be in the path, the dom can cuz its deploy time is about 4-8 seconds
So lemme get this straight,
You'd actually pay thousands of dollars to willingly risk your life⁉️

@@bDz416it’s like going to see the titanic...
Now THAT'S A cybertruck!
Love reed it was so cool to see you collab with him!
Reed is a maniac!
But the good kind!!
I had all of the videos recorded on the DVR when Storm Chasers came on Discovery Channel. Always loved watching them. It has been over a decade since I saw them. 😳
Chuck Norris Dominator Driver))
When you mention he started tornado chasing in the 90s, I think twister the movie. I wonder if he was inspired by the movie or it was just coincidence? lol 😄👍🏿😎🌴🌙
IMAGINE CALLING IT A TANK. NOTHING ABOUT THIS IS A TANK. BOZOS.
The movie was inspired by him!
Reed says his first chase was when he was 13 in 1993, so just a few years before the movie!
this has to have been the fastest i've EVER clicked on a video, seeing supercar blondie and the fuckin DOMINATOR in the thumbnail is crazy awesome yo!
This video was so well done! I watch Reed and others almost every day. But this video taught me more than I knew about the vehicle and also just hearing reeds stories I haven’t heard before. Well done!!
yay team dominator is back!!!!!!
I remembered years ago watching this dude woah
ngl...I kinda got giddy when I saw SCB was gonna show off D3! Long time lurker, now my first post. Keep up the awesome work Reed and team, and stay safe.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Reed!!! I’m very happy to see that he still out doing what he loves to do!!! he was on one of my favorite television shows ever watching them chase. Those storms was incredible!!!
I would love to work with these guys. I've done a bit of storm chasing, but that is next level.
That's the coolest tank I've ever seen!
yoooo dom3 is an epic vehicle, it is always fun to watch reed and his team intercept in it
Been waiting for this video)))
those guys are super energetic and positive amazing people
that was very cool, Reed being serious. A phd man... new found respect.
This is one of your most interesting videos!
Great work Gabby! Really cool video! Impressive doomsday vehicle lol. Reed is a character. I made sure to give his channel a follow.
Reed is a national and scientific treasure.
Gabby is a real looker, and a great presenter too. Mesmerizing Eyes.👀
She's hot af.
You know her @? 😊
Of course not. I'm sure I could look it up. I don't obsess over people in the entertainment industry. I just wish her the best success in life. Everyone is on this planet for a reason.
Who is she and where can you find out more about her?
@@bobbyface Google it Player. I'm not sure. She is some type of car enthusiast.
"And your little dog, too !! Hee Hee He Heee !"
Never stop chasing
Never stop Dominating.
these people are risking their lives and saving thousands of lives each year.
thank you for your efforts 🙏
I remember when this was a concept from other tornado chasing vehicles. They couldn't get the support they needed to build it from any government agencies but they got it done and captured so much valuable data dealing with tornadoes. I'm glad rhe team is getting more recognition and I'm wishing more support from government agencies to develop other tornado chasing vehicles. I remember the the movie "Twister"
IMAGINE CALLING IT A TANK. NOTHING ABOUT THIS IS A TANK. BOZOS.
There is a twister 2 coming soon
I recently moved to oklahoma. I was aware of tornados being there a lot but i thought the area where i moved had little to no tornados. I have been here for 2 years and already been in 3 tornado warnings, All about 0.4-1.2 miles away from me. Since i have moved i have been really fascinated with storm chasing and it is actually my current dream job

love reed timmer, hes crazy
I was not expecting this collab and I'm all for it.
Welcome to the Dominator Force clan! 🌪️
I was actually watching Reed's live stream when they were in the tornado that the juniper tree hit the Dominator 3... It was wild!!!
Chuck Norris son looks just like him.

Love your video, Super Cruise 🛳
Elon Musk "If you're in an argument with another car on the road, you will win."
Reed Timmer "Hold my beer..."
Should've waited to release this video until the new movie "Twisters" comes out because there's a vehicle just like this in the movie. Now idk if they used this truck, or took inspo from it, or had the creator help build it for the movie. But it would've been cool having that movie come out then this video got released
I’m excited to see that movie because I can tell they ripped the whole main character and vehicle off of Reed.
@itsLynzi but didn't include him they can't match the first one so I'm gonna pass. I really don't go to theatres either, but it won't be I've I'm dying to see. That's just me. But they should of gotten him to be part of it and kept it real. But they Hollywood all fake is fine with them.
Love to see you do another video (s) and dig a bit deeper into the science during more episodes. Great editing! ❤
Not gonna lie but this here is one of your best videos and right before the tornado movie comes out.
That dominator truck looks so cool even tornadoes will go around it as to not screw it up . Lol 😊
A blade of grass at 200mph 😂😂😂😂😂
You and Jay Leno both experienced the Dominator not bad company.
Now that was awesome! I like this episode! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

"It can stand up to winds of 200mph"
Excellent so still room for improvement. I want to see one of these drive into a mile wide F5.
So, what you are saying is, you actually want to see someone commit suicide.
Those don't happen that often my friend. Last one was Moore, Oklahoma in 2013. And no vehicle would make it. They throw train cars like nothing.
I never knew these kind of car is exist, wow. its doing an amazing job
How to evacuate from this when you are roll on the roof and lost power?
As soon as the video started, I thought I was on Reeds channel! Love watching his lives during twister season.
I love it
REED TIMMER IS MY HERROOOOOO
Really well done, enjoyed all of the details and explanations and the host was great. Love to see more like this!
I hope Reed gave Tiv designer Sean Casey a lot of credit for his creation of TIV 1 & TIV2. Who both were in the Discovery Channel series Storm Chasers 2007-2011. While both Tiv 1 & Dominator were in season 1. Work on Tiv 1 started in 2002 while Dominator was in 2007.
dude THATS A SWEET TANK i would so want to ride in that tank with u what a cool vehicle lol
Storm proof Dominator 1 and Dominator 2 weren't storm proof enough. Who's ready for Dominator 4?
They also said that the Titanic was unsinkable until it sunk
Man! I so want to be inside the Dominator at the center of a real big tornado.
I live in Okc. It was cool seeing this drive past me on 35 after he got it back from the repair shop in norman
Crazyyyyyyy , With The Fucking Legend Reeeeeeeeeed Timmmmeeerrrr⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
Does the Dominator 3 have technology to pickup any frequencies surrounding storm systems? The host of this video has beautiful eyes. Interesting video guys. Gizmo is the cutest.
IMAGINE CALLING IT A TANK. NOTHING ABOUT THIS IS A TANK. BOZOS.
It does not. They use the radar stations found around the country. I does have tools for research if they get near, close or even inside a tornado.
Some things I would like to say:
-The majority of tornadoes last 10< minutes, NOT over an hour
-About 0.006% of tornadoes are ef5, and in order to be considered an ef5, it has to at least have wind speeds up to 200 mph
-(Note- There are ef3s and ef4s known to have 200-300 mph winds, however, it's definitely still under 1% of all tornadoes)
-The Dominator 3 weighs closer to 11 thousand pounds
-The app they are using to track the storms is called RadarScope
If there is anything else that I missed, (I skimmed through the video so it's probably a lot) feel free to tell me
Love it super love it and you can tell how confidence he his💪💪💪💪
Now we need a collab with Storm of Passion with TIV 2

I would SO watch another video like this with you chasing and hopefully getting a tornado!
Given the calibre of niche cars covered by the channel, this fits. It is a super specialised vehicle to that excels one thing above all else. Love it. Now do all the rest of the super specialised custom vehicles on UA-cam 😁
Who is here after watching the movie Twisters?
She’s cute, and loves storms! 😍
Reed was on a show called Storm Chasers on the discovery channel and it was a pretty good show because of him. Dude was intercepting tornados in his truck and running circles around a highly funded convoy that had a pretty advanced Radar attached to a truck.
So funny, I wore the same flannel shirt when I first had the chance to sit in Dom 3 back in 2019! 🤣 It is a beast!😃
