GOOD LORD! I am so glad we don't have those around here. Everytime I see videos like that I am in awe.

I've always been sure that it could happen, just never actually seen it.

Sadly I have worked many aftermaths of tornados. The things a EF4- EF5 can do are crazy. I am not scared of anything, but I fear tornados to a degree. Get family to shelter and I am fine. Stay safe and get a S.A.M.E. weather radio if you don't have one.

Still a lot of weight, but those were empty van trailers. Very light for their size (relative statement) with a BIG broadside area. Even when hooked up to the tractor they'll roll the whole thing.

Just trying to be funny.

Nothing would surprise me when it comes to tornadoes. Damn things are scary.

I like how they put their subtitle right in the middle of the video instead of at the bottom so you can't tell exactly what's going on at ground level.

I was at Bruce's Truck Stop in Tulsa, OK in 1993. The tornado's that hit that day did the same thing to loaded trailers.

"...at least 50 feet in the air" Those are 53 foot trailers, that was 300 feet+, easy.

We just drove past there. Some of the trailers flew over the interstate and landed in an empty field.
