Massive Tornado hits South Africa

Buy video

South Africa is one of the places one would never expect such a horrific, yet beautiful tornado.
This video was taken by my dad, who is a farmer in Grootvlei, South Africa. He states in the video in our language, Afrikaans:" first time in my life that I see a tornado" . And he is 52. The video was captured from our farm on Grootvlei.
This was a nightmare in dayl life for the local community. More than half of the poor, uneducated community claimed they did not even know there exists such a natural occurance, and went around screaming "there's a snake falling from the sky, the end is here". Our first tornado turned out to be a big one. Look closely and you will see the size of the tornado compared to the white house in its path.

Amazingly there were no serious injuries or deaths, due to the tornado passing through land. A few roofs went flying and a lot of prayers too!
Hard to accept the climate is changing and locations of natural disaster too. South Africa used to be the place were everyone planned to migrate, when the world is ending. You might want to re think your options.
