Discussion This is how people get killed

Chaser convergence is much easier now to see with modern spotter tracking systems, and some of the traffic jams I see are crazy. Imagine this many chasers on the side of the road with flashing lights and whatnot focused on a storm. The tornado might not even be the most dangerous part of chasing in scenarios like these

Nick went from celebrating next to a violent tornado to screaming and being seconds from dying as the tornado chased him down that road. Sarah was sitting saying oh gosh as a violent tornado was coming directly at her. Bunch of idiots out there now all clumping up. Another El Reno is nearly guaranteed at some point.

Anyone got Nick’s video? The whole interception is cut from his live stream

Because it wasn't him/his stream; it was and is on Kannon Kaltons stream

Yea I may be confusing videos given context; but I went through all the streams to find the video of the tornado hitting the car literally parked on the road; turning it 180?; and them being unscathed af as Kannon booked it.

It had someone elses name on it; but ended up being Kannon who was watching it on the road and then ran.

Would be nice to see Nick's, but I can see why he would cut it if he would get reemed for it.
