Jun 12 2009Stormchasers Capture Inside Of Tornado

This is a video of some stormchasers in Goshen county, Wyoming driving into a tornado (the good stuff starts around 2:20). I've got to admit, it's a pretty ballsy move -- but I've done it on foot. And yes, I was transported to Oz. Don't believe me? Then where'd I get these Munchkin panties?

But it didnt go inside, What do you mean when you say, they actually go inside a tornado? But I admit you gotta have some fat hairy balls to go RIGHT next to it!

Pretty nuts... my question is, are they doing it for science or just for sh1ts and giggles? Plus, is that chick from "Mad About You" with them, or did she sit this one out?

Stormchasing = redneck adrenaline pump

neat and all but now that they've actually done it like after so may years ... im sure they are wondering if it was worth it...

i mean its like "yep it looks like the outside only reversed"

im sure after all the anticipation they were expecting leprichauns and wormholes and giant monty python looking figureheads

all that buildup...i bet now that its happened they feel a little anticlimatic

nothing will ever give them wood again

the bar is too high.if they ever want to masturbate they have to be sitting in a tornado

I have always wanted to be a storm chaser; the beauty of tornados and severe storms are just breath-taking.
But this was weak. They didn't go "inside" the tornado, they were just next to a tornado; and it looked like a medium F1 maybe a small F2. Pffffffttttttttttttt! When they have a medium F3 go over their heads while they're laying in a ditch OR they have a small F4 chase them down the highway, then they can talk to me.

crazy, but its in the name of science, this helps us understand this weather phenomena better.

@11

watch-303: "look a tornado i want to understand it better"

me: "theyre big, mean, ruin everyone's shitt, get the fukc out of the way what else is there to understand?"

Again, can't watch@work. Happy Friday everyone!


Shouldn't it say "near" instead of "inside" ...

If you can get the two confused, I can see why you think you're not a virgin anymore. Yeah, I went there.

@12 well put

@1 Looks like the inside of your mom's cavernous whistling rectum.

All other posters after this live in your mom's cavernous whistling rectum.

fake

FAKE!!!!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.

This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back down where Max and Baja were chasing tornados, they tied themselves to a pipe inside a barn, and used the power of Baja's forehead to protect them.

"Are you kidding me? That's insanity!"
LOL, expression, PEW PEW, HOT!!!

@13 Go some where and die, asap!!!!

I don't see why anyone needs to know anything more about tornadoes unless there possibility exists somewhere in this world to make one. If that were the case then I'd say GET ON IT THEN so we can launch one to the moon to see what happens

*Special thanks goes to senior patron, jim beam and comrade vodka for the thought put into previous statement

Totally misrepresenting title, Geekologie Writer. They don't go inside the tornado at all. They don't even get that close to it. And we've seen footage like this a hundred times. Nothing special.

Weird dude ... Chasing after danger!

Darwin Awards for the win!

The game takes less than 5 minutes to play!

Psh, my farts have created stronger twisters.
That being said, it actually was pretty cool. I mean... it's a tornado... and they were like, "Hey, let's do this." And I was like, "You're gonna die." And they were like, "Hope not."

Video isn't working.


I'm pretty sure I've seen it before though. Is it the one where he films his speedometer when he's going 120mph on the wrong side of the road with traffic?

Ballsy for sure, but that's a dumbass move right there.

The title is fine people. They did capture INSIDE a tornado, because the tornado turns on its side so they can capture the inside with their camera. They weren't captured inside the tornado by tornado gremlins or anything.

Lame post... the video doesn't even work.

Looks like a snow storm...

Oh! it works in Gizmodo!

I would have enjoyed the video more if they didn't say such stupid, little boy remarks through the ENTIRE clip.

I'm with Daisy on this 1..
they did not get inside!


Must See!!!

Those storm chasers need to learn how to shoot video. Their camera shots suck.

wtf? that sucked! you'd think that with the money that was spent on the vehicle and todays technology they'd be able to get something with higher quality than the witch Blaire project

Wow that was so skinny! I would love to see someone in a hurricane film it! ;)

They were defiantly inside that tornado. The reason the video isn't the greatest is that they are saving the really good video for the show on the discovery channel when it comes out this fall. I have chased before, and I know the TVN tornadovideos.net uses stuff like this to promo their "real" video that they sell to media outlets to make a living on. They are also the stars of the show Storm Chasers on Discovery, and they won't show the best stuff until they get a chance to air it on tv.

Pretty awesome! Were they right in the eye or very nearby the hurricane?
