Yeah, that was crazy. Smashed windshield and everything. Debris flying all over. Wheeew. They were right in it.
(Video has been removed. I don't know why. Pretty standard stuff. Hmmmph. That's a good one why it was removed. Maybe the author can give some insight later.)

Was the original video watermarked? I'm guessing they removed the original because it wasn't . Video like this is a valuable commodity. I've seen hundreds of clips from storm chasers- but never from anyone caught in anything like this (see clip 4 description- I agree) . Most don't live to tell about it. They deserve every dime they make from licensing the footage.
Owner's description from Youtube:
Published on May 31, 2013
StormChasingVideo.com storm chaser Brandon Sullivan and his chase partner Brett Wright got caught in the tornado and slammed with debris northwest of Union City, OK as the tornado hit a barn and exploded in front of them.
Clip 1 and Clip 2: Twin Tornadoes form over open field. Tornado is back lit with great nat sound audio of Brandon describing what is happening.
Clip 3: Interior shots of chasers trying to escape the tornado and screaming to get out of the way as the inflow of the storm pulls them back.
Clip 4: Time Code 1:40:21 POV Camera out of front of the vehicle of the most incredible footage ever caught by an UN-Armored chase vehicle.
The tornado hits a farm and throws debris into the air. Sheet metal hits the front of the vehicle and another vehicle goes past them and flys into the air and into the ditch.
After the SUV fly's past them on the left, a massive hail bail smashes into the front of there Jeep as they continue to drive to try to get out of the heart of the tornado.
Clip 5 Time Code: 3;11;06 Different POV Camera of what just happened in Clip 4 but with a wider shot. Footage shows debris smashing their windshield.
Clip 6 Time Code 3:37;28 Interior Camera of everything that just happened inside of their vehicle.

This is the first time in a while I actually thought I was going to be caught up in the tornado. Just missed where I live and where I was sheltered. We were fortunate again. I heard that some weather chasing vets didn't make it. Not these guys.

Glad you're OK, Hawk, and hope you get your own shelter soon.
Crazy set of storms out there...
Yes, three storm researchers/chasers were killed:

And a Weather Channel crew had their camera ejected out the car window as their truck went airborne in the winds:

Raw footage:

In the original video of this thread, perhaps they should have intercut the angles, instead of playing each one in its entirety?
That way you'd see what they were reacting to... just a thought.
