This half mile-wide tornado hit Eastern Colorado on Saturday, injuring five people and knocking down 40 power lines.

If you seen the old Discovery Channel show Stormchasers then you will realize that the people who do this aren’t hillbilly’s, their trying to help the world by learning about tornados to save lives by giving us warnings earlier.

The only reason they didn’t get launched into the sky is probably because Killer Keemstar was in the vehicle with them
