As a Native American person probably solid advice to take cover i been in a Tornado Warning and Emergency definitely not fun very unpredictable

[StormChaserMaci.]

This is true: if you see a tornado doing the dead man walking.... RUN LIKE HELL!
Edit: to be clear... that was code for get out of the path or get in a basement.

The dead man walking had no idea the camera man never dies.

It is true when they say about dead Man walking, and I am half Native American and part of its true stay safe out there

Living in tornado alley all my life, I'm not standing still long enough to see 💩. I hear that siren and I'm going to the only room with no windows and pipes all around it. Praying to whoever is listening that I don't have to kiss my ass goodbye. 😅 🏘🌪🏘

Definitely the scariest and most terrorizing tornado I have ever read about

It should be added and explained what a Deadman Walking tornado is, and why it is so dangerous as opposed to a standard tornado.
A Deadman Walking is basically a multi-vortex tornado. It's a tornado that has inner-subvortices that appear to be walking on the ground during its early formation. It's a sign that the tornado itself is highly unstable and unpredictable. And the windspeeds are probably going to be extraordinary.
Joplin, Bridge Creek, Smithsville, Tuscaloosa, Hackleberg-Phil Campbell, and most notably Jarrell.

Fun Fact: If you see a Dead Man Walking Tornado, it doesn’t mean you are about to die but it means it’s a super powerful tornado that rarely are seen. What makes them so deadly is the fact that they are two tornadoes conjoined into one.

My partner loves tornadoes, so I'm learning more about them to have better conversations with my partner. My favorite to learn about is this one.

I don't know why but
"The Dead Has JUST WALKED!"



SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME😭

[PatentPending]

From a damage report following the event:
“The infamous 'dead man walking' tornado of Jarrell '97 went backwards and stalled on a subdivision for 3 minutes after explosively expanding. Over those 3 minutes it shredded everything to fine pulp and sprayed it everywhere. No houses or trees were left, just concrete slabs sanded smooth. 600ft of asphalt road was ripped up. Cars were stripped to the chassis and mangled. Basements were found full of shredded meat after being opened, cows were skinned alive and had their lungs pulled out, corpse sniffer dogs could not find any intact bodies and the entire topsoil was confirmed to be minced human. Those few chunks of person that weren't obliterated had blades of grass lodged into the bone.”

It can rip bunkers/basements out of the ground with a house and people will die if they even hid anywhere dangerous it happened on may 1997 Jarrell city Texas if you live in the Midwest where tornados form, I pray to god that you will be safe❤

[DynamoModel]

The dead man walked right into Jarell. It took the lives of 27. *The Dead Man has just walked.*

[JustGeorge-Sm]

The worst part of the legend is it is true because it is very dangerous to be so near to see that

[bentorres]

[savy-bgwt]

My parents could have died from this tornado. 10 days before the tornado hit they where trying to buy a house in Jarrel, but thankfully they didn’t. Rip the people who died in the tornado 🫶🏻✝️💕
