- Category 4 Hurricane Michael from the eastern tip of Panama City Beach, FL as I went mobile to try and reach the eye, but was prevented from doing so safely by projectile debris and crossing the bridges.

Don’t ya just love an ocean breeze
yessir
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nothin like flying depree with my coffe
I can feel it all day *getting blown away*
Note: btw this is a spongebob reference
dam texaco knows how to build a gas station
And, contribute to climate change.
Give the contractor a medal.
Please refer to my website www.ciclicoahuila.com for info. on my mission and lifestyle. I teach people here in Mexico, for free, how to find, harvest, and conserve water to cope with climate change induced drought. No, I don´t drive. Yes I use electricity. That is an unfortunate tradeoff to get my message out. !Saludos desde Mexico! old geologist ;-)
lmao!
They don't build gas stations. The contractor does.
Why didn't you guys throw down a blanket and have a picnic. Now that would be good content for viewers .
This guy does play by play at the local high school football games
Someone should post a video of trying to fold laundry in hurricane Dorian outside
Lmbo
Or flying a kite
@@xKalphax in soviet eye wall you don't fly the kite. The kite, flies *YOU*
Its not the wind, its whats IN the wind
It's mostly sand. Everything gets sand blasted.
The files are in the computer?
Actually, it IS the wind. Ponder this: in a tornado or hurricane, if a person were catapulted by the wind, it would be a precarious situation, even if there were no debris. And the reason is simple: what goes up, must come down. And when a person comes down, they will hit - terra firma, a fire hydrant, a fence, a building, a telephone pole, asphalt, concrete, and a myriad of other objects - all of which could seriously injure/kill someone, upon impact. There doesn't need to be any debris in the air. But, even if the only debris were sand, it would cause tremendous injury, and even death. During the 1935 Labor Day Hurricane, people died from the injuries that were incurred from just being sand-blasted.
As for the "dominator", it has limitations. Tornadoes can pick up train box cars, and trailers from 18 wheelers. They can pick up huge objects, and fling them through the air like toys. If one of those objects were to hit the "dominator", the occupants would be crushed like a tomato. The "dominator" is not impervious to the power of mother nature.
Besides a weak breather will have lung collapse
Ever see that girl get the stop sign to the face???
I have no idea who designed that awning but they need a f****** raise!!!
That awning is built better than some houses, I swear
2:47 that Texaco canopy is pretty tough.
It didn't make it
I'm surprised those traffic lights are still on
It may be running on a generator. Not sure if Florida does the same but several traffic lights in Alabama have little natural gas generators to keep them on during outages.
Dylan Wilcox dems built like the gas station
One small storm can cut our power and those lights still on
In Jacksonville, Fl, here. No storm impact, just minor gusts. We've been praying very much for all people impacted by Michael, just know people's hearts and love is with you.
That is some of the craziest hurricane footage Ive seen. Clearly this is a very serious storm.
resisthk3 Right now all we can do is pray for the folks being affected by Hurricane Michael right now. 🙏🇺🇸
Shoulda seen Harvey
One of the worst that ever hit Florida's pan handle. Global warming has a part in contributing to these intense hurricanes.
A lot more intense than Harvey.
Auggi Dogg So the 1935 hurricane with sub 880 MB was caused by global warming?
"Reed timmer reporting from the eyewall of the super storm on saturn"
or is it Jupiter?
Both have huge storms
Both
He will blown away back to the earth😂
Neither
It was Neptune
WOAH!! This is INSANE!!! The power of Mother Nature is terrifying sometimes. I hope and pray that there aren’t many fatalities. 🤞🏼
You were not meant to see clearly what happens in 155mph plus wind...it is a blinding mass of sand, water, and foam...just be glad you did not die filming this
windshield took a hit. that can be replaced.
My aunt's farm got trashed. Uprooted an 80ft oak tree an a 100ft pine. Animals and everybody were safe thank the Lord
Honey, “kindly go walk the dog.” Fine... Honey,” wheres the dog?”I don’t know baby he took off down the road. What!!! Go get him. Baby, “don’t worry about the dog, he will be back on the next pass.”
Generally storm chasers would pick a solid wall that blocks your vehicle from the wind and flying debris... This is just stupid, at one point you’re underneath the gas station shelter that you were just saying was going to come down...
I was thinking the same thing,get beside the gas station at least🤯
Looks like a good time to go get milk....
Great now my father will use this for an excuse on why he didn't come back from the store.
Hurricane:im going to end this man's whole career
Fascinating and frightening
That's how my ex-wife described our honeymoon.
intense ...I could not do this I would be freaking out ...I'd be useless ...
He is a bravo. Hats off this gut who captured the real experience of this deadest hurricane. Its real worth watching and great job guys done at your own risk
Can’t believe people are risking their lives just to film this storm.
He's in a armored vehicle, he's fine
His job
Avril Farley Yeah. But thanks. Pass the popcorn!
He pro. Watch storm chasers one day. We watch all the time on antenna.
He can sell this footage for hundreds possibly thousands of dollars to any of the large national news companies.
Did that gas station blow away? It seemed like you wanted it to.
I agree. It would make for a money making video to sell to the media. Why else would he be out there filming?
INSIDE JOB AGAIN BLAME ISIS OR DAESH
Oh
Nope
Awesome tho
My friend Tammy lives in Yulee, FL and said over 300,000 are without power in Florida
OMG be safe and God Bless You, Reed.
You are crazy man!
@Chris. Ditto double that!!!
He walked into an F0.
*walks into f5*
Chiming in, now 3 years later, that then-Texaco was at the corner of Cherry St. and US 98 in Callaway, in eastern Panama City. My parents lived only a mile away from that station. We lost contact that morning around 10 am, when Michael was still a Cat 2 or 3. We saw where it hit as a Cat 5 and feared the absolute worst. You can't imagine the joy we felt when they finally got a hold of us the next morning when they finally got cell service just before I-10.
2:54 sounds like i'm watching the freakin kentucky derby. "and its texaco by a nose!"
This is the best footage I've seen ❤️
Phenomenal wind speed ferocity.
Hope y'all are wearing motorcycle helmets, to protect your brain and eye sight. Maybe add some body armor for good measure, protecting vulnerable internal organs.
All it would need is a well-aimed piece of debris to have taken everyone out.
Nevertheless, it's dramatic footage to see.
5 y
Wow, look at that white out. Storms is so organized
It's a state-sized EF3-4 tornado basically
Thank you =]
This and the Hurricane Charley eye wall video that completely destroyed the racetrack gas station are the two most intense vids I've ever seen posted. Kudos.
I don't get why you would risk your life like this!! Most people that died in Charley in the city I live was from doing dumb stuff like this. I just don't get it???
They're storm chasers, that's what they do!
They are amateurs you don't see trained professional chasers doing stupid stuff...
@Michael - they must be reporting back to a TV station or something... the way he started "reporting" at 2:50... and then at the end he says "should we retreat" and "they are bringing us in"...
@@grayhawk5555 they're not amateurs lol. They been doing this for a good while and they usually chase tornadoes which is much more dangerous.
@@grayhawk5555 Reed timmer a amateur? Lmao
This reminds me of the gas station video of hurricane Charlie
Was just about to say that
.
@COOLGUY11956 yeah Texaco didnt give a fudge
Yup!
Me too
I hope this does not encourage anyone else to do the same. God must really love you guys to still be alive.
I'm so sorry for seeing the destroyed of the hurricanes. God bless the peoples n the Country.
Just inSANE. And you guys are very lucky to be unharmed, unscathed, because this is one of the more scarier and intense videos I’ve seen of a hurricane in action...EVER. This was just nuts.
Damn. I hope everyone is ok! We're buckled up here in Jacksonville, but this Storm is beyond intense!
☮♥☯
"Uh boy!" is the understatement of the year.
My prayers are with all of them
You guys bring new meaning to the old reporter sloan, "Go out en' get the story!" I'm glad you're still alive and I'm even more glad I didn't go with you. That storm is beast!
There is no way you can imagine the power of this wind. ... You have to be there or view a video like this. Impossible to live unprotected.
This is one storm that WAS NOT OVERHYPED
This was intense. I could only imagine what it was like at Mexico Beach Florida, where the most intense part of the storm was.
X10
I live in Parker Florida which is about 15 miles east of us and it was horrific here so yeah Mexico beach was devastated!!
Can't believe Reed Timmer is at a gas station I've ridden my bike to. This is unreal, and you don't believe it can happen to your town until it does. The strongest hurricane to hit the U.S. since 1969, crazy!
No its not... hurricane hugo In the 80s was a borderline category 5... Andrew was a 5 in the 90s. Katrina was a 5 in the 2000s. Get your facts str8. This was the largest to hit the panhandle. Not the continental US.
@Kahmal Garcia Katrina was a cat 5 at one point regardless. Hurricanes are rated based on sustained windspeed. There have been plenty of hurricanes with higher windspeeds than Michael since 1969.
Surprised you guys weren't down in Mexico Beach. Just a quick hop but maybe the bridges were all closed by the time you realized you were just missing the strongest part. There's truly nothing like a hurricane. Cool video! Thanks and stay safe out there.
Were there any Mexico Beach or Post At. Joe videos posted?
Freaking Weather Channel was in Mexico beach but Stephanie Abrams woosed out and pulled her whole crew and ran to PCB to be with Cantore. I'm sure he wouldn't have left had he been there. I haven't looked yet but I'm sure there will be some coming online if not by now. I'd rather watch the pros because I chase as well when I'm not slammed with running a business. I would've been there for sure. If she could get out of Mexico beach then you could get in. It's a bit of a ball drop if you ask me. I know it's dangerous but the people want to see the worst of the storm. Not the edges and certainly not the West side of the eyewall. It's fine to cover it but have the eye making landfall covered as well. At least as long as you can still transmit.
He would be dead if he was in Mexico beach, the entire town is under 12-15 feet of water
Yeah, because he couldn't get in a building. DA
Well for someone that lived thru it. That was the back half of the eye wall. The first half was what was the most destructive. That's also the beach and had the least amount of damage in the areas. That's not saying it's nothing to shake your head at. That is just showing you the damages and the winds in the first half we're way worse. I've lived here my entire life and I've never seen destruction like this ever before. The winds were 2 mph less than a cat 5. And from the damages we have I think it was well over that. It will be months before a lot of us will have water and power and years before our town will ever be close to the same. God bless all those who stepped up and came to help & to those that had damages at their own homes but came to help those of us that were in bad need. We are Florida strong and we will have the world's most beautiful beaches once again.
Reed I’m kind of torn, do I thumbs up this (because I like it) or do I thumbs down it to stop encouraging you into harms way??!! I’ll thumbs up it for the effort, risk, quality... Be careful man!
Should have gone with your first thought as this guy's an idiot trying to get footage for a viral video and fame. Doesn't get much dumber than this. There's even a crack in his windshield.
Jerfish Entertainment I feel the same,except that I want to thumbs up because the video has great footage,but....I want to thumbs down because the guy talking is annoying!,&he's not using good judgement by being in a hurricane with winds over 100mph,&he's sooi close to the canopy area,which cld rip off&impale him thru the windshield,or crush him!😲
That was crazy. I pray everyone stayed safe. Wow...Mother Nature.
Best video i've seen of the hurricane.
Very good my bro reed keep up and love video and be safe bro 💯
Worst part of being in hurricane is the noise. It is so scary listening to the howl for hours and hearing debris hitting and trees cracking.
I feel guilty for enjoying this. It's so exciting, yet we all know damn well we wouldn't be excited if this was our town. I can't believe Michael stayed as organized as it did. I live in VA and we still got 3+ inches of rain and 50+ mph gusts. Nature is a real mother, and sometimes mothers give you a swift kick in the arse.
Thank you for the coverage please be safe. Why are you not in the dominator?
Please be safe? The only thing dumber than what I just watched would be to walk around out there...
natedogg0131 That's a really good idea for a pay per view event!!!!
whats his name from the weather channel already does that haha i think its pretty cool honestly
They introduced the HERV, Hurricane Eyewall Research Video, last I saw of it, it was being tethered to a railing on a bridge with its weather detection devices in operation, then they recorded a drive by of it, I believe upon leaving. They would retrieve it later.
jefferino need to work on an armored, amphibious all-purpose vehicle to chase these hurricanes
The angle of the sign created deflection causing it to hold. Great coverage...
I don't know if I'd want to do what you guys did but thanks for the cool show
Hey Reed. Incredible footage as usual. Thanks for sharing this! Amazing.
Hi reed I am a big fan of you whan you were on storm chasers hope I can meet you one day
Logan Sheppard Same here!!
Same
Me too!
That's some seriously deadly wind there! I've lived through several hurricanes here in eastern N.C. but thankfully most of the strongest winds seemed to stay 30feet or so above ground level. That wind in your video was at ground level. Severe damage everywhere. Glad you made it out alive brother!
I've been to that Texaco station dozens of times, funny being 700 miles away yet seeing something you've frequented often in a video like this.
On the east side of the eye as it came in from the ocean. You got the full force!
This looks like a gentle breeze compared to the Hurricane Charley footage of a petrol station being literally torn to shreds
With wind like that do you think many died?looks utterly brutal.been there done that.
2 fatalities so far 😖
Was that a Texaco commercial?
some of these videos people have taken during this hurricane is just crazy. these storms are getting bigger every year.
This is being videoed at the furthest Texaco gas station shown on Thomas Drive on Panama City Beach. Google Maps has pictures of the street and gas station.
You're crazy. Just the thought of a storm named "Michael" coming my way would have been enough to terrify me away and for obvious reasons too but; yet, you dared to venture out during the height of the storm to make this video. Thank you for posting the video because it was awesome.
0:21 Hello there just passing by..
1:36 reminds me of Irma. It was unreal. My dad grew up experiencing strong storms and hurricanes. There's sort of this rule in my family that if my dad isn't worried, we have nothing to be scared of. He's a smart man. And he keeps his cool in dire situations. He was a commercial fisherman for years and grew up on an island that frequently experiences hurricanes and major storms and flooding. During Irma, he was concerned. He said he'd never seen anything like it. And if news reports and stats were correct, Michael was even worse. I can't imagine that. We thought 9 foot storm surges were had. Michael was projected to cause 14+. That's insane.
You should show this to the weather channel what real wind looks like, nobody effortlessly walking by in that wind while reporter struggles to keep their footing.
lol...they love their fake news
I guess the wind didnt blow you away due to the sheer weight of your steel balls. You are lucky. Good footage regardless...but you were knockin on death's door.
Heck no I hate these idiots and thrillseekers that go searching for this ..we don't need for u to put your life and other ppls lives in danger to get this footage
@@Gildhattie give credit where credit is due because someone has to do it and don't knock them because you can't
Wow amazing footage you got in such a monster storm! Be safe please brother. Big fan of yours and will be sharing this video on my Facebook!!
130 mph winds? Where was this location? At What time? How did your wiper blades stay on? Why weren't the palm branches ripped off? They show the special house on the beach that stayed intact, how did a your car stay intact?
Stay safe Reed and everyone in Florida
Even the sound it makes suprises me
right where I used to live pray that my mom is safe
Praying All be safe from Michael storm
what the heck - the gas station magically is put back together at the end
Hurrican winds can do some mighty strang things!
Lmao
He moved so you saw a different side where it was still intact up on top.
Elyse Hayes That’s the power of Jesus!
@@happygolycan4756 *No such name as Jesus! Thank me later!* 💯
I survived Hurricane Ivan 2004
Hurricane Dennis 2005 also Katrina in 2005 and then moved back to Queens NY just in time for Super Storm Sandy , each 1 was complete devastation .
So glad to see your videos again. Looks intense!
I Survived Hurricane Andrew in 1992. I wish we had technology then that we have now I would have showed you what a real Category 5 hurricane eyewall looks like.
That looks soooo beautiful ❤️
Love these videos, I've never been in a hurricane, but now I know what it would look like 👍🏻👍🏻glad you're ok 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Incredible coverage,the sound was haunting
I went through hurricane Michael... We had a shipping container filled with furniture, many tons, It flipped over several times like it was nothing, no trees over 10 ft survived... This guy is reporting from Panama city Beach, it was much worse than this in Panama city, and further east
Reed, you ALWAYS have the best videos. I've been watching since the early days of TVN.
We are so happy that we left florida
Irineo Reynoso lol
I saw pictures from Hurricane Andrew where it looked like the storm stabbed a fork into a tree and bent it upwards. Be careful out there
Was that a self-serve or a full-service gas station? While your at it could you check the oil too?
Wow you guys are awesome thanks for this video 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🌺👍🏻🌺👍🏻🌺👍🏻be safe
Wow what a scary thing to watch especially not being able to see what is coming at you , in the white out conditions .
Get the rental with full coverage. Have lots of fun returning it after the storm.
Imagine being in a tank just driving around in the middle of a hurricane.
I got a friend that lives near Panama, I'm hoping they got out of there..
The one gas station awning still standing in the hurricanes path. Haha.
Thought for sure I'd see Jim Cantore swinging from a pole somewhere giving the forecast for Twin Falls Idaho, lol.
Thank you for the footage! Keep risking your lives!!
You guys are knocking on heavens door
I'm curious how this compared to an equivalent (F3ish tornado)? Are the Dynamics on the ground different?
The video was great! Thanks!
Didn't think there was any Texaco gas stations around anymore? .. guess it depends on what part country you live in
It's strange that those pumps aren't wrapped in tarp.
Those machines are quite water resistant, but I doubt they can keep out heavy rain driven at 130mph.
