Additional info:

A rare violent and deadly multiple-vortex tornado struck several villages in the Hodonín and Břeclav districts of the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic in the evening of 24 June 2021, killing six people and injuring at least 200 others. The tornado struck seven municipalities, with the worst damage in the villages of Hrušky, Moravská Nová Ves, Mikulčice and Lužice.

This tornado was the strongest ever documented in modern Czech history and the deadliest European tornado since 2001.It was rated as an F4 on the Fujita scale. This made it the first confirmed violent (F4+) tornado in Europe since July of 2015, when an F4 tornado struck the towns of Dolo and Mira in Italy. The tornado was part of a small outbreak of seven tornadoes that formed across Europe that day.

In all, a total of 1,200 buildings were damaged or destroyed by the tornado.

  • If you’re ever caught in a life or death situation, find a camera and record. This will make you into a camera man and grant you invincibility.

    *sees giant raging tornado ripping apart several buildings a few blocks from him *closes the door "That'll stop it."

    Wow! That was some of the most impressive tornado footage I've ever seen, and definitely the one that best captured the sound of the tornado. Also, the shot looking out the broken window as debris is flying by at extremely high speed is just totally amazing.
  • @jedhillbilly
    This woman is one of the bravest to film an F4 live. I've never seen a tornado doing this much damage. It's awesome. Thanks camera woman
  • @misterguts
    When you're facing winds of over 400 kph, be sure to stand in front of glass. I'm sure nothing bad will happen.
  • Their faith in the contractor who built that home is incredible!!!!
  • @jaynedag3721
    Wow I can’t believe how calm the person who took this was ! Great footage but please be safe!!!!
  • @mirror1675
    I wish he'd kept the camera a bit steadier as his house was being destroyed.
  • @TheToox
    Slavic people really do be built different, the casual “mhm” after looking into a tornado is something else
  • I'm from Iowa. Marshalltown had an EF3 blaze through town, taking the top off our courthouse as it passed through, plus wreaking other forms of havoc. I sat through the outer winds of that thing in the relative safety of my parents' basement, then went outside afterwards to see leaves plastered to the side of the house, and gobs of first responder units making a convoy line down my street to where a huge tree fell across the pavement. So to see this camera operator remain that close to glass, seeing all that debris spinning around...I have to admit I was doing a facepalm. They're damned lucky. That's all I gotta say. 😅
  • Probably the best inside a tornado video on the internet. Insane power and sound as this rude monster came down your street tearing everything up.
  • @scootanow85
    He did everything you’re not supposed to do when there is a tornado, he went outside and then to the windows lol what a guy
  • @serixskylark
    “This is an F4 tornado, seek shelter and safety immediately.” This person: hmm…nah.
  • @stimpycole
    One of my all-time favorites. Who's watching in 2024 still?
  • @nfindc
    Considering how rare it is to have tornadoes of that strength spawn in the Czech Republic, either that woman didn't realize the danger they were truly in, or she was like: "Oh look at the cool tornado! Let's see how long I can stand here before it carries me away!"
  • @bman6065
    I'm so thankful for these brave and/or dumb souls for all their sacrifice to entertain me
  • I like the “mhm” as if windows weren’t just broken and major damage was done and they could’ve died if they were outside
  • @KT-sq2ml
    Wow! I’ve been in several hurricanes - the last one being Ian - and those were scary, but this is truly horrific. I’d be interested to see how much damage this did. Hope the people who recorded this are all safe.
  • @bassbytes
    The massive pieces of debris floating in the air as it approaches is so surreal. Can’t even imagine what it’s like to experience this in real life.
