No, it wasn't the same people who died. The chasers who died were Tim Sedaris, his son, Paul and Carl Young, a part of their crew, Team Twistex. We've been watching Tim for years on the Stormchasers TV series, and he has never been one of the 'cowboys' who tried to get in the middle of a storm. His crew tried to get in front of the tornadoes to put probes in their paths, in order to get as much information about the structure of the storms as possible. He was in it for the science.
The guys who were reporting for Fox weren't necessarily foolhardy, either. I think this storm was just so unpredictable, there was no way to get away from it.
Suzi — I didn’t say that the guys reporting for Fox were foolhardy, I said that Shepherd Smith was goading them into foolhardiness. He’s a fool himself.
