Violent tornado from extreme close range south of Dodge City, KS on May 24, 2016! 

Damn, talk about the money shot, that may be the best video I have ever see of a tornado. What a rager

"I gotta go, Julia. We got cows."

He is literally driving RIGHT into it...

It just blew my mind. Simply amazing.

That is a truly gorgeous tornado.

Best tornado video ever in the whole history of twister documentation

Glad no cows were flying around.

man what I would give to see a tornado like this. and what I would give to get the heck away to watch it from a distance

Watching this in 4k on a 65 inch 4k UHDTV is awesome. Mother Nature always knows how to put on a show to remind us how insignificant we really are in the grand scheme of things.....Nature is both very beautiful and frightening in this video. Kudos to these people with titanium balls that weigh a ton each to get this close to this monster.

Whoever taped - thank you for being quiet.

Que Espetáculo de Fenômeno

Amazing video! Best one I've seen yet!

Wow!!! Incredible footage Reed! Congrats to you!!

Remarkable and stunning photography of a very scary tornado. Great catch!

I simply have no words for how amazing this is and i really hope everyone is OK there... I live in the Netherlands, an extremely boring country where we pretty much never get a tornado which is really good for us, but I still really want to film at least 1 big real-life tornado from a safe but close distance before I die. (Yes of course I hope it won't destroy too much because i'm not one of these assholes that go like 'WOW LOOK AT THAT BEAUTIFUL DESTRUCTION SO COOL OMG!')

What an absolutely beautiful stove pipe with a nice rope out at the end!

Right off the bat in the first 20 seconds they were too close....awesome video!!

This is what I call "close-up". Really amazing video! I wish, I could be there to see it too :)

ur so close that ur giving me anxiety.. i know they're deadly but i think they're beautiful.

that is one of the best quality tornado videos i ever seen

it's sad how much damage I'm sure these tornadoes have been doing...but God, this is so cool! great video

There's no place like home there's no place like home

Hey look at that tornado! Lets DRIVE TO IT!

The zoom is pretty nice on those cameras. Always fascinating how little rain and lightning there is in these videos...

Amazing up close shot of an amazingly beautiful perfect tornado. Btw Reed where is the footage of you being arrested for driving through a police road block to get this Amazing shot? Lol j/k did the cop give you a warning? I was watching the other storm chaser that was behind you and he yelled out your name. After watching their video of this monster I had to see if I could find your footage. Because from the other guys video it looks like you and the cop drive straight into it without a care lol. But no I realize it was further away than it looked. No doubt you were still extremely close , thanks for risking your life for these truly amazing videos.

fantastic video.thanks

amazing work!So close!

Tornadoes are like popping cysts. You want to turn around and walk away, but you just want to keep staring.

this one cleaned up its own mess. Good tornado!

Mother nature's so crikey amazing! I wish someday I would capture a tornado but far distance. I even like the sounds of tornadoes, it kind of relax me with chills.🌪🌪🌪

I have always wanted to see a tornado in real life not on a tv or iPod sadly I don't live somewhere that gets a lot of tornados about 1 each summer. But this video is amazing!!

I love your videos

F4 for sure. that rotation and up draft dayyyum

Well done Reed!

looks like a strong EF-3 possibly a small EF-4, i like how reed focused in on the ground speed in all the clips. A lot of the damage in tornados are due to the how fast the tornado moved on the ground. I also noticed that the smaller in diameter the tornado got the faster the ground speed increased. The debris cloud was massive too If your looking for a more dramatic tornado video, there are lots on here but from a perspective view you can't get much better.

superb! glad you got around the sheriff tryin' to block the road!

I am amazed you got as close to that big one as you did. I thought you would have been more wise, The trouble is maybe the bigger ones do not move as much but i could see the power in that tornado from the camera, you guys where still rolling towards it, Silly but amazing.. Con grats.

You can say what you want about Reed, but he has balls of steel. Great footage, but maybe a bit less zooming in/out would be better...

awesome video.

maybe a strange question, but does every tornado turn the same way, when It spins? I don't mean the path they take but when the tornado spins around. Like water always when It draines, left spinning.

That looks mesmerizing.

What did they rate this tornado? Did it stay in open fields? I sure hope so!

Awesome and amazing footage! Even better it was just in a field and not endangering people or property.

You got some serious balls doing that bro

I live in dodge city and yesterday was a day to remember. We went to the women's center to hide in the basement and after the tornadoes were gone we drove behind the boot hill casino and we saw damaged houses with no roofs and trees were laying down there tookin out of the ground. P.S. There were about 4 tornadies!!!

Simply awesome!!!!

wow. Incredible!

Now that's a nasty looking tornado. It's bigger than a "Get out of Dodge" tornado. It's as nasty looking as a "Get out of Stalingrad tornado". That is some serious stuff.

That is awesome. That would have been a good on to intercept. Could have gotten good readings from it.

perfect vídeo

Where's Bill Paxton to exaggerate his emotions when you need him. Great video.

Ef-3? Also, how do you know if the tornado won't shift her tracks and come at you?!

was this to strong for an intercept?

Where exactly did this touch down?

Wow, you guys got an incredible shot. Hopefully that monster just stayed on the plains without hurting anyone or property. You guys stay safe out there.

Jesus christ that's close. Taking such a risk. Granted these guys are smart enough to be able to predict a lot of stuff based on what they're seeing but if that thing suddenly shifted directions then you're in trouble. The whole time I was sitting there going "Ok, he's gonna stop now. Ok maybe now? Ok he's gotta stop now.."

That is as close as I'm going to get. Glad it missed. Powerful.

Is that an F4?

ITS THE WONDER OF NATURE, BABY!

That must of had been a f3-f4 tornado due to the time of power that it was ripping.

Just had one in my neck of the woods. Fortunately no damage or injuries I'm aware of.

Fantastically frightening. Lord have mercy on anyone or thing in its path.

My God Reed, how can anyone surpass this? Driving down the throat of the Dodge City Tornado.

YES!! Now this is how you do it Baby!!! AWESOME!!

so Cool, I would love to see one in person.

Guys great tornado!

this is wonderful

These guys are so crazy 0.o

can someone tell me, as you start to get closer does it suck you in??

Holy banana's!!! How do you. Go inside a tornado?

Tornadic perfection...

Great capture!! Love this weather porn!!

He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. ~Nietzsche

it's a ef3 ?

Awesome footage but maybe a little too close? Be careful out there.

so reed how's the new dominator?

Is that an f4 or f3

That is the scariest thing I've ever seen!

God bless your soul,I pray you stay safe😘

i don't think some of those residents were in Kansas anymore..

It was the first ever touchdown of a tornado in dodge city I was in a basement trying to survive:p

now thats monster

Could you take a and build a rc car with gps and a gopro camera and drive it into a tornado?

I really really would not have gone that close!

awesome!

Impressive, someone has brass balls.

that's a nice looking tornado

That was a frustratingly disappointing ending... missed the break up badly...

WE'RE STORMCHASERS, IT'S WHAT WE DO

I know one day you're just gonna say F* it and drive right into it... be careful... and see how much better it is without all the yelling/noise in the car? Wow awesome job thumbs up!!!!!

There were tornadoes in Oklahoma too that day

nice vid but still pissed they took down their streaming site with no notice to anyone.

Amazing

I like that tornado a lot

Kansas must go through a lot of wires and telephone poles with shit like this deciding to wander around all the time.

how to play with your own bodily destruction like a toy..... right on

That's soo cool :D

I've seen these things scour the asphalt off of roads they cross...

What a mad lad

you saw the video I felt the video
