Three Meteorology Students Killed In The Aftermath Of Kansas Tornado
source
Dumb and Dumber and Dumbest. …chasing their dreams.
They passed away because of chasing tornadoes. RIP.
How sad.
RIP
You mean chasing stupid and being stupid. That's what storm chasers are. They look very immature. Storm chasers need to be licensed and have expert driving courses too.
They should have known better after seeing the color of the tornado
These storms are coming weekly alot more tornado activity than I can remember
๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฏ๏ธ๐ฏ๏ธ
Someday commercial trucking will have it's own highway.
My prayers are with their families and friends. I pray that their with "Our Lord and Savior", and that Our Lord is with their families, as they mourn the loss of their loved ones. "God bless to all of you". With โค and ๐'s…๐ฏ๐ฏ๐ฏ
Players for families and friends.
Three men die in a car crash,
I don't think we're in Kansas anymore lol
goodness gracias
I just hydro planned the other day. Scary. Sad for these boys and families.
Prayers to all the families affected
So sad
REPENT .. JESUS IS COMING.
They were killed by the driver's hubris behind the wheel, not the aftermath of the tornado.
So sad, well at least they were together and following their dreams. It was likely an epic day too, i only hope their passing was quick and relatively painless. As a sufferer of severe chronic pain, i now unfortunately understand the plight of family and friend who dealt with chronic issues most of their lives. I led an extrem3ly fulfilling life also doing what I loved. Many people never even get to experience the love of doing a passion, and thus these young men were lucky to have that, and each other to the end. Rest in peace.
were they getting a D in class? everyone knows F3 nados are dangerous, hard way to learn that lesson
It's ironic that so many storm chasers have died because of traffic, not the storms. There were 2 others that died because one of vehicles didn't stop at a stop sign a few years ago.
๐ฌโญmay the three students stay "forever young" in paradise!!๐๐๐โญ
Nothing like living in Tornado Alley. How ironic that it wasn't the tornado that killed them.
Let's build a family and home in the path of KNOWN TORNADO ZONES. Bold move Cotton, let's see if it works out for them.
Heartbreaking
Don't send bombs across the world or you will reap God's wrath.
Followed science into the after life!!! RIP GANSTERS ๐ IN JESUS NAME
my condolence ๐ to all the family and friends may there soul RIP ๐
I don't know how parents can talk about it so soon.
Wow. Rest now. You have the perfect weather.
So sad ๐ข rip love ones b comforted .
That couple is lucky and storm chasing is never safe thats why I warn against chasing storms
Why would anyone chase a tornado ๐ช ๐
Dont watch NBC..
This is sad. The government should form a special committee to look into hurricanes.
โ tornadoes ?
Oh yes, tornadoes.
OMG that's very dangerous. ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
Sad news. My heart and prayers go out to family and friends. May you find peace and may God be with you. Condolences from Utah.
that was a very nice honor for the three young men who tragically died in the crash. our thoughts and prayers are with their families. ๐
Scariest thing ever
probably the worst title you could've picked
"wow ironic, they were meteorologists who got killed by a tornado" is that what you were looking for, or?..
what exactly happened?
So very sad
