That is some of the best footage I've ever seen. Incredible
ey bobby!
Hi Bobby o/
Junge spinnst du alter du kannst doch nicht einfach ein Tornado reingehen junge weißt du mit wie schnell und Dinges Alter das kann ich fast weg setzen🌪️💧🌀🏥💈
uhhhhmmmmmmmmmm die sind ja net in den Tornado reingegangen sondern einfach nur daneben@@FabioZimmermann
Usually terms like "close range" are click bait. Not in the case, truly incredible footage. Thanks for sharing. From the UK.
Absolutely! Thank you so much

This is the most well behaved tornado I’ve ever seen. LP, slow moving, and not destroying much? Good boy
This tornado actually destroyed building sites & killed one person. It also destroyed a lot of crops. I live about 15 miles from Ashby & saw the aftermath personally. If you search on youtube there are several more videos that show the tornado & the some of the damage it caused.
What if the tornados a girl?
Totally fake
@@johnnygerber3254 wtf its true
@@johnnygerber3254 That is absolutely not fake. I live 15 miles from here & I was there & saw all the damage personally. It totally destroyed a building site & killed one person their. It took trucks & threw them around like toys. Tractors looked like they had been sand blasted. Another family was in their basement & the tornado picked up their vehicle & dropped it right on top of the basement they were in.
Best footage Ive ever seen. The high sped frame rate really shows how fast the air is spinning in the vortex. Normally from far away it doesnt look so impressive but when you see this you realize how powerful it can be.
I mean when he got close up though, that was really violent looking in what I assume was real-time.
Really impressive, awe-inspiring, and beautiful stuff.
@@surrealsupercell7217 it really is, good show all around
Easily the most photogenic tornado ever. Great footage.
@@diah7130 pecos hasn’t put any new video out , maybe 1, in awhile. he’s focusing on his guitar right now.
It's so slow... it stopped to say cheese
Even baby tornado's are cute.
I like Hank and have spoken with him but I am disappointed that he is moving in a different direction due to distractions. But he’s a survivor and will be ok.
Lucky he didn't get a blade of grass in the eye! Crazy good tho!
Whoever filmed this is insane. This is unreal how good this footage is. Hats off to all of you. 👍👍👍👍👍
Is this what Americans call storm chasing?
@@GwayceeNo, I think it’s called storm found.
@@Gwaycee what do you call it then, since you're not from America, genuinely curious
We don't have storms in our country. I heard though, that there are people who are called storm-chasers in America and I wondered if the guy in the vlog could be one of those.
@@Gwaycee yes it is, the other guy is tryna make a joke.
In one segment it looked like the funnel was burrowing into the ground like a drill.
It was in a stationary position. This is one of the best filming of a tornado that I've ever seen upclose.
Hence why the name "drill bit" was adopted for small yet intense tornadoes like this one; they focus incredible power into a tiny point, like an electric drill.
I've watched hundreds upon hundreds of storm chasing videos - particularly tornadoes - but never once had your channel or any of your videos recommended.
That's madness because you have a collection of the best footage I've ever seen.
It’s footage like this that makes tornadoes so fascinating, the sheer wind speed in that small column of air seeing it that close up in detail, it looks like it isn’t even real but it definitely is
Yeah it's like nature making a power drill, out of wind.
I’m not convinced this is real
This is real yes
@@afridgetoofar1818 this is absolutely real.
@@afridgetoofar1818Why? What reason do you have to believe it’s fake? This is a real tornado that happened, look it up. And this is the real footage from it taken from multiple angles from different chasers.
Thank you for this!!! Thank you for not screaming and overstating every verb you could possibly think of out loud like some child “every other storm chaser”. Thank you for getting actual amazing footage up close. You guys rock!
Thank you!!

Not a chance this is real it doesn't even look real..
In fact if every one of these are real my name is John Freeman and I will donate $100,000 to your mission right now please contact me.
I mean it..
Our crew has 99.7% determined that this is CGI.
If it's not contact me Google me etc etc
Reed catching strays
that has to be some of the best footage and pictures of a tornado ive ever seen
It did not begin as an EF-4, but it sure ramped up the power as it went along.
So in this video it is not at EF4 strength then, heck, it's only about 10 feet wide. I don't know the correlation, if there is any, between a tornados size and wind speed
Yeah, the EF scale (enhanced Fufita) is different from the older F scale (Fujita). The EF scale takes into account wind speed, damage to structures and the landscape amongst a few other factors. This one really did begin as an EF-0, but later it ramped up to something much, much more significant. Check Pecos Hank's channel. He is a storm chaser, extraordinaire.
Yeah you can tell it started ramping up later in the video
Oh, I was about to call BS on it being an F4. I just can't understand how an F4 would be that small, it doesn't even look like it's going that fast
That is one of the most adrenaline-filled tornado videos I have ever seen! Nerves of steel!!! Great work!
Your so lucky to be right there. It could have fizzled out just as easy. That's an almost an impossible shot to get and people will be watching it for hundreds of years from now (possibly).
I was half expecting them to drive through it lol
The shot at 2:30 really displays how high the windspeed in a tornado can get. Never seen a shot like that where you can see the inside of a tornado without it being obscured by dust and debris. Great footage!
its is still developing into ef4. ef4 should be faster then that but hard to see due to the dust
@@bladeqmaster I am in Kentucky and a EF4 is so much bigger as it grows if that makes sense. And carries more than just dust hun. It gets to the size of where you cannot tell which end is which by the width and the height is just fathomable to say the least. Pretty cool though to see them form but they are extremely dangerous and they sure don't descriminate what gets in their deadly path.
It was terrifying!!! Hearing it and seeing how fast it was going...I couldn't. They're beautiful but so frightening.
Absolutely.
But I wonder if anybody else thought, "ah, iceskater!" ...as they watched that part....?
…yet the logs sat there!
Once again, Scott bringin' us some absolutely phenomenal footage. You, my friend, are the master of tornadic close-ups. I cannot thank you enough for sharing this fantastic footage with us, my brother. It truly is a remarkable sight to see. Keep up the impeccable (albeit safe!) chasing, bud. Your footage is honestly second to none on this platform.
This is the absolute BEST footage ever captured of a tornado in my opinion. The power is amazing!
wow, speechless, I have never seen anyone as close to a tornado as this, the filming is beyond anything I have ever seen, I know its destruction but this video is so vivid up close etc, stay safe and thanks
That's what I'm sitting here thinking. Is that really an ef4
Well said. That was incredible footage this man got! He deserves a million thanks, a thousand fist bumps and a huge amount of bragging rights!
@@manmeetworld An EF4 is what destroyed Mayfield, Kentucky....this is not EF4 more like an EF.5
He was just chillin' in the car and a twister just decided to plop down next to him? Man..
Im guessing it could of have been the beginnings of a Nader that grew into an ef4 later. Description also say this was 2020, still remarkable video. So much energy in a 10 foot wide diameter. They called it the drill bit, if its the same one I read about.. was an EF1 at times and got up to a EF4 (pretty sure, again if it's the same one.) But tbh, for me that is whatcha call a "nope rope."
Even when a year old, this is the most incredible tornado footage I've ever seen. That moment when he zooms in on the bottom of the tornado watching as it tears up grass and scours the Earth is absolutely unreal, and gives us a closer look at how these monsters work. Truly fascinating.
GOOD CHANCE OF TORNADO OUTBREAK TONIGHT
wow
Stop chem trails weather manipulation harp
@@LIGHTWORKER-po9di Only a matter of time till the nutjobs showed up.
@@doctordarkly53 Because *you* know everything about everything.
Wow! Fabulous chase coverage - no hyperbole - This footage is genuinely AWESOME!
Seen alot of footage of tornados but this one was incredible! The speed that it's turning at ground level is wild, and the sound? Goosebumps! Nice job.
The best footage of a tornado that I’ve ever seen. Incredible. No way I would ever want to be that close to one.
Very cool to see such a skinny but powerful tornado. It allows a very close look at some extreme winds
SOMETHING DON'T LOOK RIGHT.
@@ronniewall1481 : "Something" like what?
@@Solutions3000 THE SHOTS LOOK A BIT MANUFACTURED.
NOTICE THE GRASS ISN'T MOVING. THE CLOSE UP HAD SCALE ISSUES
@@ronniewall1481 you need glasses.
@@ronniewall1481 : The weather channel & other news stories showed footage/aftermath of such 🌪, and they don't look much different; however, I'm not familiar with tornadic activity, enough to know for sure.
"Just taking my pet tornado out for a walk" Damn! You were so close. My stomach was in my throat.
Or some kids science experiment in the backyard getting a bit outta control. Pet tornado hilarious!
I've seen a lot of tornado videos, many of vantages from up close, but this has to be some of the most impactful images I've ever seen of a tornado this close or anywhere. To think that it wasn't even a wedge tornado, and the power it demonstrated in such a small vortex is just mind blowing. There's a part of me that wants to scold you for risking your life and getting THAT close, and another part of me that just wants to thank you for capturing such amazing footage. Stay safe!!
I think that tornado just committed a federal crime. Actually it committed at least two, maybe three. Destroyed the box, stole the mail, probably opened it too.
Lmfao XD
And read the mail too😲. Great work! Thumbs up!
Oh my gosh this is just UNREAL! So mind-boggling getting to see it that close. Trying to understand the physics that drives these things makes my head hurt. So beautiful. So terrible.
I have NEVER seen footage like this! I’ve been watching footage since the mid 90’s and this is BY FAR the best. The risk you all took to get this footage was insane; but I get it and appreciate your work. New sub.
Definitely amazing work! And like others have said, thanks for not being obnoxious like many others. It makes for a MUCH more pleasurable video to analyze.
As an engineer and science freak, your videos are freaking amazing. This one will be studied by lots of weather scientists, amazing
This is HANDS DOWN the best fotage I’ve seen of a tornado up close with with perfect and aggressive camera angles. Amazing 👍👍👍👍
GREAT video...thanks for posting! And thanks for not yelling, "Awesome Dude" like so many tornado videos!!!
Congratulations, Scott, you did a fantastic job! I would have thought that this was a Pecos Hank video. I had no idea of this tornado, until tonight…Beautiful capture!!!
You’re insane for getting so close but the footage is incredible.
If its in a grassy field like that, it’s definitely safe. In a heavily wooded area or near a bunch of houses, yeah stay far far away
@@guy8808 yup! Highways are also generally safer. Unless they are crammed full of cars then it’s a death trap. Pretty much anywhere flat with open space there’s not much of a risk unless you drive straight into it
@@guy8808 you learn something new everyday
@@guy8808 No, it's not. You NEVER know when it's going to change direction or expand in size.
@@guy8808 safe really?
I've seen tornadoes make 90° turns and u-turns go directions you never expected them to go and there's no way you can react fast enough to get out of the way.
This is by far the best footage/photos I've ever seen!! That "Got mail" shot was funny. Everytime I see tornado 🌪️ footage, it's all over the place. Your focus (being so close) is incredible!! Great job!
Oh don't worry about the mail those are just absentee ballots for the person to fill out for the 2022 Democratic elections oh don't worry they're going to show up at the voting station in one piece
I literally pulled up the comments to say the exact same thing ! I love watching tornado videos & this is honestly the best I’ve ever seen. Absolutely stunning to see the power that close up and touching the ground. If the guy who filmed this, reads my comment ! Amazing work! Please be safe brother”!
I just was saying the same...quality was great...I literally thought it was fake.
Agreed 💯💯💯🌪🌪❤
Airmail.
2:40 EF-4 Tornado shrinking to the size of a dust devil to be like "come on... run through me, it'll be fun. I'm not dangerous at all!" This is the tornado version of "Hey kid, I got some candy in my van. Come on over!"
That surely will be a lot of fun for the kid when they go flying with 170 mph
Yeah first part the funnel at the bottom is like 4 to 5 feet wide. It’s only dangerous if you walk up to it and touch it. If it was a EF4 about 1900 yards wide that hit near me. I’m sure being that close wouldn’t be a option.
Incredible close up footage. LP, you can see the ground scouring by that drill bit, the broken trees, the debris cloud. The rotation on that thing is nuts. It's so beautiful. So dangerous, but so beautiful. I'm glad this tornado behaved itself by showing off its stuff in the middle of a field. It avoided the farmhouse, let you get close enough to pet it, and even checked the mail. Very well behaved. This is a perfect tornado that didn't seem to want to destroy any homes or hurt anyone. It just wanted to show off how awesome it is to the chasers so they could get its good side. :)
The human urge to pet anything dangerous and tame it is amazing. Lol
Figure out how to keep that thing in a fenced yard you'll get free electricity.
LoL! Seriously. Dudes chasing it with his car and trying to run up on it on foot 🤣
I've always been mesmerized by tornadoes throughout the 70's up thru this day and age. Gleened thru 1000s of videos, but this is by far the most extraordinary footage ever recorded. Thank you!! Now I can die in peace.
Same
LOL!
This is awesome!! Check out Pecos Hank. Hes got amazing vids as well
Thank you for the excellent footage and beautiful images.Also,thank you for your calm presence and not yelling and screaming and ruining it.
Really an excellent job.
scott...
this is literally the most unbelievable video i've ever seen.
i've never seen such close up with so much clarity. this deserves an AWARD
True that
Man that is crazy to almost looks like CGI, if that is real then that is the best footage I've ever seen
You must not have seen much Reed Timmer footage then
My first thought when the tornado had first formed at the beginning of the video was” this isn’t real.” But, it definitely was. Tornadoes have certain qualities about them that seem to break my perception of reality lol
@@amymbeauty8765 reed is not the god of chasing lmao y'all literally think reeds the only chaser with mentioning. The cinematics of this video is better than just bout anythinging Reed does.
@@ZeroDrizzy Pecos Hank is good as well. Not saying this is bad, though. If anything, it is really cool up close. However, not sure that I believe it is an EF4. Just looks so fast due to being so thin. If he meant that it was once an EF4 that died then formed again, I might believe that.
@@ZeroDrizzy Uh, that's because he is. This video is nice, but it's also highly edited.
Scott Peake Weather: “Shut up!…There, are you happy?”
Me: “Yes.”
Can't find words big enough to describe what you filmed! Spectacular is such an understatement.
I've watched 90% of the tornado videos on CZcams being im absofreakinlutely obsessed with them, and this is by far to date the most amazing video I've see yet! Incredible footage!
Absolutely fantastic footage... It's hard to put into words, but I have waited 60 years to see closeup tornado footage like this. Thank you for posting it.
I too have waited decades to see something like this. Wow!
No more waiting. 😌
@@bobsquires4521 You are right about that. Thank goodness.
You consistently have the best tornado footage around. But at the same time, stay safe! New subscriber 👍
He knows safe or he’d be dead ha.
awesome! Threw me off for a minute as I was searching for footage from this week. I remembered seeing this footage a year ago and hadnt read the fine print on this re-upload. By far some of, if not the best footage out there!
this is the most beautiful small tornado ever seen. I could have watched much more of it until the end. thank you
Outstanding! Thank you for not screaming and jumping around acting like a fool like some of those chasers do. That was amazing. I found myself holding my breath for you a time or two! Well done! Thank you for sharing.
CGI.
your comment is apparently CGI since this video was real@@ponyxpress3
Absolutely stunning footage, easily in the top 5 ever recorded...maybe even #1 since yours is so closeup and in high definition.
One of the best closeups I’ve seen so far. Thank you for sacrificing 8 of your 9 lives to film it.
This has to be the best tornado footage ever taken. Noone else has the nerve to get that close. This video is truly amazing. Just wow!
That has to be the best footage I have ever seen of a twister. You can really get an idea of the wind speeds at the center and the sound is just crazy. Amazing!!!!
I know it has to be hard to keep the camera still but you have some awesome footage. Great control of the camera. I can't believe how close you are. I think the best part is how calm you are. No screaming or yelling, just calm. Awesome.
The absolute BEST footage of an "Up close Tornado" on CZcams or anywhere else..
I admire your bravery, these things are beautiful, violent and incredibly dangerous at the same time, the
sound alone is nightmare inducing and you managed to capture every facet of Twister in 7 minutes..
50 feet from the Volvo and the guy gets out !!!?? FOR REAL???
OMGOSH !!
You took some "Amazing" photos !!!
Loved the video.. Be safe out there and beware of flying mail...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year..

I've never seen tornado that close. I'm glad I live in the UK where we hardly get them. Keep safe.
Me too but we still get twisters (we applies for uk

Man we get approx 35 a year, apparently! There was one in Scotland a few weeks ago (on CZcams) and I just watched vid on the Birmingham big one from 2005
This is incredible video, I don't think the Noaa or the Weather Channel has ever produced film of anything this spectacular. Interesting how the ground was scoured and, this is just amazing. Also Minnesota at the end of December without snow?? This is crazy weather patterns we're having
That was in July. There wouldn't be fields of green corn in December.
@@edennis8578 Thank-you, I didn't see a date stamp lol. I thought strange for Minnesota to have no snow, everyone is having crazy weather right now.
It really doesn't get much better than this in regards to Tornado footage.....from what I've seen. Great work folks!!
I’ve never seen the bottom of the funnel so clearly. Thank you for that!
2:51 The mailman must have been confused after that. Also, the point of contact with the ground was so incredibly small!
May be the best footage of an up close tornadoe i have seen earned a sub and like bravo.
Absolutely incredible! You have immeasurable courage.
They absolutely risked their lives.
The close up of the ground in this video is superb. Absolutely stunning. I don’t think anyone has ever got footage like that before
Out of all the videos I've ever seen, I've never seen footage like that, That's Epic Footage!!!
This is the most incredible video I’ve ever seen. I was stunned and mesmerized the entire time. INCREDIBLE. You are very brave, or a lunatic, either way, THANK YOU. I’m still just STUNNED. just WOW.
You couldnt have said it better - I too am stunned, speechless, riveted, flabergasted...unparalled footage that has taken me from " knowing tornados are bad" to viscerally experiencing the terror!
Some of absolute best tornado footage out there
Some of the best footage I have ever seen!! Thanks
Amazing capture!! Breathtaking , highly professional. Risky and scary , but mesmerizing! Thank you!
That is just insane, amazing shots & footage, you must have a big set on you! thanks so much
Man that was awesome. That was insanely close. I love how you could see how thin it got towards the ground like a needle and really see the intense spin. Stay safe!
Wow this is amazing!! On minute 3:56, it looks like a long "cloud leg" coming down from the sky. It's freaking amazing. You were so close to the cell and got some of the most amazing pictures and videos I've ever seen. Mother nature is beautiful and great, but very dangerous!! Awesome work!!
Those people are so lucky that they did not get hit because how close it was
@Lala say goodbye to your bullshit spam account
This channel is blowing up. Well deserved
One of the best videos I have ever seen in a really long time! Great work.
Some of the best footage ever. Thank you.
These are the best videos & pictures I have ever seen of tornadoes. Amazing.

Truly Mesmerizing! I immediately had to rewatch! What does it feel like to live this close to the edge? Great video from start to finish - I was totally captivated! Nice video.
Outstanding! I don’t think I’ve seen anyone get that close to a serious tornado. ON PURPOSE! To get that close and come away with such fantastic video and photo’s you almost make it look easy. The cyclonic power is massive and it’s hard to imagine what the drill would do to anything in its way. But the video conveys a mesmerizing attraction. It’s got to be scary as hell but I can sense a desire to get just a little closer. Wow! That was cool to watch.
Such amazing footages, thank you so much for sharing with the rest of the world!
This is the absolute best close range footage I have ever seen..
If there had been more than grass flying, he would be dead. Dirt, rocks, 2x4s, metal, insulation flying at 200 - 300 mph, that's nasty stuff.
1:29 - It opened that car door , ,
Oh really? No way! Thank you so much for stating the obvious.
Granulated human remains is real.
you know the winds of this tornado are probably about 100 MPH so even saying 200 MPH is exaggerating
@@wech1ll990 its an ef 4 so it probably had peak speeds around 200 mph..

I have seen so many tornado videos and I don’t think I have ever seen one so up close before just tearing apart the ground. It’s amazing how small the tornado is but how insanely powerful it is. I am amazed and terrified of tornadoes
