"This DVD has about everything a person could ask for when looking for something about tornados. There is the standard "meteorological talk" (which to some might be a bit on the cheesy side, but is educational and worthwhile in my opinion), great chase footage, as well as a good bit of footage about "after the storm," which is usually missing in all other tornado films. There is a lot of great "bonus footage" too. But the best part about this DVD is, whether you love it or hate it, it only costs about $3.00, so who could complain? (I can't leave out that this DVD also has a great sound clip of the "roar" tornadic thunderstorms often make -- that "freight-train" or, as I would call it "jet-engine" sound that everyone always talks about hearing when there has been a tornado.)"
AWESOME for the price!

"This is a special produced by a Tulsa television station some few years back. It shows some good videos and also gives some good advice on surviving tornadoes. It comes in a cardboard sleeve."

"Thr dvd has all of the action that look for in a weather dvd.I,being an noaa trained volunteer weather spotter,love dvd's like this one because of the fact that all footage is ALL real-life with NO hollywood.It gives you real life situations that emergency workers have to deal with.I will also mention that i am an active DAT team member with the red cross in Greenwood and in those situations we also get involved."
Amateur filming

"I was not really impressed with this DVD. I thought it was going to be more of a professional movie and it was pretty much a lot of home videos strung together and some narraration going on for part of it. Some of the tornado footage was pretty thrilling but I got motion sickness from the camera moving too much. If you are a real tornado buff you might enjoy it but if not I would give it a pass."
