Don’t be in a position where you wind up IN THE DIRECT FUCKING PATH OF THE TORNADO.
Rule #2: don’t laugh on camera like an idiot and expect to not get roasted by storm nerds like me for being an idiot.
This was from the wedge tornado that struck Mountainburg, AR earlier today. I can only assume the video cut off when it did because the guy filming finally realized what a big mistake he had made.

It’s not smart to stand in the predicted path of the funnel, but...I mean, not all funnels are going to be nice and refrain from deviating from that. Nowhere is safe when a tornado is about.

Completely understandable, however, putting some distance between you and it before filming is advisabldle, especially in the southeastern US where trees are more of an issue than out on the plains.

It’s even more advisable to be pointed in a general direction of travel away from it with a reasonably speedy vehicle.
I hope your 0-120 is fast enough.

Now, let me explain somethin’ to ya: it isn’t that the wind is blowin’, it’s what the wind is blowin’. If you get hit by a Volvo, it doesn’t matter how many sit-ups you did that morning. If you have a “Yield” sign in your spleen, joggin’ don’t really come into play.
