Now for the first time, you can witness some of the most destructive, mesmerizing twisters of recorded history in this real life video. Every inch of footage in this video is real... not just a Hollywood simulation. Real storm chasers captured giant Twisters throwing real cars in the air like toys, crushing real houses in seconds, and wiping out whole communities like blades of grass.
