For those asking why I didn’t take cover, or why I was outside - the answer is simple: I am a weather enthusiast at heart. The absolute raw power of nature fascinates me in a way that is difficult to explain to someone who does not share this common interest.
Taking cover means missing the first-hand opportunity to experience the raw power of storms like the one in this video. It’s important not to conflate my stance on this as ignorant of the risk. I know full well the risk I’m taking by being outside. Severe weather, in general, has the capability to change rapidly and violently at any moment and I understand this.
The entire time I captured this footage I was fully aware of the possibilities of being sucked out into the storm, hit by flying debris, or crushed by a collapsing structure. None of this mattered to me for the mere sake of the experience itself. Just know that if I were to be injured, or even perish, it would be doing something I truly love, and I would still be a happy person either way.
At one point in the video, I made the statement “I’m shaking”. That was due to a pure adrenaline rush and excitement overall (it was also my way of saying “I can’t hold the camera still”). There was no feeling of fear, not even for a second, and I will never stop seeking these types of experiences as long as I’m able to!
Wow you're really passionate about weather. Yes you're right it's not easy for me to understand the risk you take. But I lremember a youtuber that also risked his life recording the tornado gave me almost the same response. that it's his passion and his life and that he does the storm chasing for exactly those moments.
And I can understand it a bit because since I discovered a tornado video on youtube I became an addict of tornado videos myself and I watch really many because of the fascination of this incredible power. Here in germany we have compared to the U.S. almost zero tornadoes. I know that we have statistically 50 a year but I never experienced even one in my entire life and I'm 55 now and noone I know experienced a tornado.
The same passion you have for weather I have for music and that's the opposite of danger.
Keep doing your passion and keep providing us with thrilling weather videos.
Reports said that was an EF-1 with 110mph max winds! Crazy! Great video!

Awesome video didn’t overreact stayed outside filming definitely some epic footage

Didn't you think about going to the basement or bathroom? You have quite balls to stand there and record the unfolding disaster. You're lucky that you're unharmed. Great footage though.
Anyone that's lived on the Gulf Coast has seen this or worse from their front porch lol.
Thats a strong EF1
Read the description. It was a confirmed EF2.
@@peternemeth1777 why you gotta say "read the description" like a smart ass? Just say it was a confirmed ef2.
@@jerradmechals1 what about him saying "read the description" meant he was a smart@ss?

May have been ef-2 at its peak but it wasn’t in this video. Still absolutely dangerous not trying to diminish that, but there’s levels to this for a reason.
