That car just casually driving right before it hit!

[staceythomas]

I was looking to see if the car was going to come back in frame airborne.

[joanfergusonsgirl]

Imagine driving past that and a few embalmed bodies just come raining down from the sky 😳

[joelg]

Two bodies were found amidst the rubble. Thankfully there were no casualties.

[Olliethelabradane]

You can’t even see the tornado. Pretty crazy!

[lynneuribeross]

This funeral home is where my family has had all our funerals, praying for the Schuberts during this time!!!

[Furious]

Was half expecting to see the Mustang slide back into the frame from the right.

I gave it a thumbs up, but I’m sorry for those affected by this weeks bad weather. 👍👍👍

[toetroll]

Damn was that car going that fast it blew the roof off

[pirobotbeta]

It's been close to 40 years since I last witnessed a twister in person; I still feel terror watching a video like this.
Well, it was at night, power was out and all we could do was hunker down in a flimsy apartment and listen to the sounds.
The next day, a field nearby looked like it had been plowed by a madman.
Clumps of sod pulled out of the ground, thrown all over the place.
Strangely, a trailer-park a mile away was untouched!
There was a cliche in the Waco area that tornadoes seek out trailer-parks and Churches Chicken outlets.

That car driving right past the tornado... Holy shit he was lucky

[uwczehh]

Looks like Tennessee needs new building codes. That was just a weak not even fully formed small tornado and the funeral home is gone.

[sandasturner]

Hope that driver and everyone else is okay

[tjwash]

This just in: tornado destroyed funeral home, there were no casualties. Well, there were casualties, but prior to the tornado.

[BirdDogey]

The car was being driven by someone from Oklahoma. They were trying to get a selfie.

[paul]

Doesn't look like it was very well constructed- those trees weren't moving much and the building was flying apart!

[robbielynmccrary]

i’m so amazed how tornadoes destroy a building so effortlessly

[kyle]

Building looks like it was made out of paper. Crazy how it can tear it apart so effortlessly.

[greghight]

I’m pretty sure that was the rear flanking downdraft that hit the building (aka ghost train) and not the tornado. They can be very intense.

[qpeplcn]

Well at least nobody Else died in there
