Twisters: Nature's Deadly Force
In this fascinating program, you will see spectacular footage of real live Twisters, or their more common name -- tornadoes. This amazing footage has been captured on video from across the U.S., and features incredible scenes from Emmy Award winning photographer, Jeff Piotrowski, a professional storm chaser. According to Tom Grazulis, author of "Significant Tornados" -- which has become the storm chaser's bible, Jeff holds two positions on the Top 20 Tornado Video Countdown, and has acknowledged that Jeff has been on 14 of the Top 20 tornado chases in recent history. You will also see footage from Project VORTEX, the group of scientist portrayed in the motion picture "Twister." You will experience the adrenaline pumping excitement of actual storm chases... watching killer Tornadoes from their very inception. You will also witness other examples of Mother Natures' most severe weather phenomena develop right before your very eyes. We will also visit with professional meteorologists at the National Weather Service to see first hand how they predict and track severe weather. And perhaps more importantly - you will be given tips on how to survive in case you are ever caught in a Twister's path!

Some good video of tornadoes...
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.

Basic Introduction
This is a basic introduction to tornadoes. There is good footage of storms from the early and mid-nineties. It contains shots I have not seen elsewhere.

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...

Video "Twister"
I bought this video to be part of a weather unit plan I had to develop as a pre-service teacher. I have found that this video will fit into the unit nicely and I will be using this entire unit as an in-service teacher. The video arrived in great condition and in a timely manner. Thank you for the...

Great buy
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...
