Tornado Terror I Ride shotgun with Americas Number One Storm Chaser, Jeff Piotrowski. In this program, Jeff documents two of the largest tornados ever seen on video. An F4 on May 4, 2003 in Seward, Nebraska and an F5 (the largest ever seen) on May 3rd, 1999 in Moore Oklahoma.

See both of these tornados up close, only a couple hundred yards away.

On May 3rd, 1999 an F5 started in SW Okla. and two hours later hit Moore, Oklahoma, a suburb of Oklahoma City. Over 70 tornados were formed this day, but this was by far the largest. This tornado killed over 40 people and caused more damage than any other tornado to date. Sometimes Jeff is only a few hundred yards away from this incredible monster. You will see transformers blow-up, telephone poles will be blown down right in front of the camera from only a hundred yards away. After this tornado went through a densely populated suburb of homes, only slabs were left. This is absolutely the most incredible video of a tornado available anywhere.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

Very Amatuer!  
This was a waste of money! I could have shot better footage with better verbiage.

unbelievable storm chaser footage,as someone who is somewhat obsessed with tornado footage,the Oklahoma 1999 twister was one to behold.You feel as though your riding shotgun witnessing this devastating tornado,definitely worth purchasing!!

Good but...  
The footage was definitely awesome! But it ran more like a PSA on tornado safety, which for someone like me isn't what I wanted. I just want raw footage of chases, along with background of the storms-how the chaser picked that storm/system over others, for example. If you can deal with a narrator saying over and over "Jeff knew he was in danger...(etc)" then it's a great DVD.

Scary Amazing!  
The footage captured on this DVD of the 1999 Moore/Oklahoma City tornado is amazing. Jeff was way to close in a couple of spots, and the viewer gets to be there too. Highly Recommended!

awesome footage  
The thing i like the most about this dvd is the amount of awesome footage the coverage of the may 3, 1999 F-5 is spectacular. Because of the footage that this chaser gets of that tornado you can really see why they call it the billion dollar tornado.
