VIDEO: NC man is totally unconcerned with approaching tornado
Will Brinson
So, on Saturday, I was sitting in Raleigh at Natty Greene’s, when a freaking tornado plowed through the city’s downtown, about four blocks away. Thankfully, I’m still here, but that’s pretty close for a tornado to pass by.
Not as close as the tornado in the following video, taken and narrated by Steven Hoag of Wilson, NC (there were like 25 tornados that broke out all over North Carolina and South Carolina over the past few days) at Fred’s Food Club.
Hoag, on the phone with his sister, films the tornado from about a half-mile away up until it passes right by the parking lot, after picking up a roof off a house and crumpling his the hood of his own car.
It’s really one of the more insane things I’ve ever seen, in terms of a man’s ability to totally ignore the fact that Mother Nature is attempting to destroy everything around him. And, because it’s like the total opposite of a Bill Paxson movie, even in terms of the acting.
