At one point, when they are near a power line, a sudden gust of wind takes them into a storm. The following is a horrifying video of their car windows being smashed.

After the tornado passes, the footage shows that they miraculously survived it and are trying to get out of the car.

The individual wrote: “Thankfully you were able to survive and share this. Count our blessings and stay safe, everyone.”

Another commented: “In my 20 plus years in the fire service I’ve done and seen a lot of crazy and scary things, but nothing like this. When I saw those poles falling and wires snapping, my heart sank because the guys didn’t have exits and they were high energy lines. I’m so glad you were able to get out. Yes, the car and other things are replaceable, your lives are not.”

“Easily the most intense raid footage I’ve ever seen. Wow. So glad you all made it. Honestly, I’m surprised things like this with infrastructure or debris blocking your path don’t happen more often to raiders. What an incredibly terrifying situation,” he posted other.

A fourth said: “I’m so glad you all survived it! What damage those tornadoes cause! Phew! I got goosebumps! Take care people, thanks for sharing this with us!”
