What's it like to be inside a tornado as it's forming? Few people, if any, have experienced such a sensation, but Reed Timmer is now one who has -- and lived to talk about it after an extraordinary up-close encounter with a tornado on Friday evening.

It was an awesome video, but that was probably an EF0 or weak EF1 not exactly a powerhouse.

Reed was one of the chaser crews on Storm Chasers tv show. Pretty ballsy.
Loved watching from afar.
One of the crews got caught in the path of a big one. They were killed.
These guys claim to do this for science. Yeah

A Mr. Shelton that wrote for the
Wichita Falls Times and Record News published a series of stories that resulted from an interview with an USAF Sergeant that was picked up in an F-4 tornado West of Sheppard AFB in April of 1964. The Sgt. was carried for almost 20 miles and was conscious the entire time he was in the tornado. At one time the Sgt. stated he could have reached out and touched a horse.
I don't think I wish to even entertain one iota of the experience that man had. The Sgt. eventually died a few months later from the massive trauma that he experienced.

I don't follow Timmer at all. He comes off as a loud-mouthed showboat.
If you want to see some astonishing tornado and lightning videography, and hear some fascinating insights and facts about tornadoes, you should check out Pecos Hank on YouTube. He is amazing.

That’s like being in a low intensity firefight.
