I am posting this because many of you are probably wondering what the building actually looks like now and how they got out and what the walk-in cooler actually looked like that they ran into.

I think many of us can learn from this as there really has never been a video like the 1st one linked above.

(Note: I do not know the young man who did the recordings. I just know that there is a lot interest in what this young man and 19 other people went through.)

I am sorry for the weird title - I just didn't know how give it a short title.

HOLEY MOLEY!

You have to see them in sequence — but when I saw the second one, my jaw hit the ground as is still there!

Any rational person will say “YOU SURVIVED THAT?? In THERE?”

That video is life-changing.

Oh... this Fastrip Store/Gas Station is about 4 miles to the east of the hospital that was badly damaged.

God Bless All of them.

Amazing.

And all that beer that they stacked around themselves to make a barrier wall (beer wall he said) is STILL THERE! It hasn't been looted!!!!!!!

Quick, someone page an inner city neighborhood somewhere. They will be there by the truckload to help "unload" it.

My only gripe is the young man sold the rights (apprarently)of the first video to the sleaze at HuffPo. Too bad.

Wow...I live in Alabama, when our storms came through, I was @ school where I teach. We could hear one of the tornadoes as it touched down beside the school. It was loud and scary. Blessedly it stayed in front of the school and never touched it. We had so many tornadoes that day that sirens were going off one right after another. The worst came after we made it home. Thankfully we didn’t incur any damage to ours, just loss of power. But it is just like everyone says, it’s like seeing bombs go off. We could see trees uproot, roofs flying, brick homes crumbling. I feel for these families who have lost so much. Prayers on their behalf.

Oh my gosh, when that woman was calling out for Jesus, it’s obvious, He was definitely there.
