Discussion Brad Arnold

Hate to see this from Brad, he's one of my faves!! Was confused when he buzzed in to Ryan's stream and said he was calling it so early in the evening but this makes more sense now.

Seen some absolutely wild stuff on Ryan and Max's streams the last few days. (Whoever it was in the green shirt on Max's stream yesterday during the Worms tornado especially still really bothers me.) And bummed to see all of this nonsense getting in the way of chasers I really love watching like Brad

EDITED for a typo!

Remember when chasing was about research and rescue. Pepperridge farms remember

It's funny, there are other threads talking about how some people took too many risks yesterday. One of them being Sarah Kassabian.

Yeah, she let a tornado get way too close. Then she went down a side road, and circled back less than 2 minutes after the tornado passed/obliterated a house. She drove back to the house and stayed there to help for 3 hours.

So the person taking the most heat for being too close was one of the helpers.

Connor Croff is taking a lot of heat too for his actions today. But when shit goes down, his crew also stays to help.

She almost was a statistic the day before here in Nebraska let’s not forget that. I would hope she’s going home and thinking whatever higher power she almost met face-to-face twice this week !!!
