Moment British farmer charges straight into 'haynado'

This happened on a hot afternoon in July near Redhill, Surrey. These whirlwinds arn't uncommon - I reckon they are very common but they never have much to pick up so you just never see them - but they usually fizzle out in like 1 minute. I spotted it from about 300 yards away, from the adjacent field where I was stacking barley straw, it was in the hay field where my old man Jim Nicholson was baling (I imagined he would be absolutely fuming watching it spread out all the hay he'd spent 2 hrs raking into rows earlier :D) so I filmed it for a minute or so, stopped filming, then it kept going, so i jumped in the tractor and went storm chasing! Filmed the second vid, it felt awesome, i was a bit dumb struck If I'd of known it would get a million views I'd of thought of something wittier to say! People say i was crazy to run into it but I could tell it wasn't a real one, no real power - this crazy hot weather had made the hay bone dry and light as a feather that's what made it look so amazeballs. Anyway life is a big adventure or its nothing!
