Samaras and his crew had close calls before on the show. I've always thought it would be fun to chase tornado's but some of these dudes obviously get closer than they should.

These guys were usually pretty conservative because they carried some extremely expensive monitoring technology. For them to get that close to a tornado is shocking to me honestly

same here. they used to argue a lot because the one guy wanted to be more aggressive and i think it was Tim who held back.

I feel about as much remorse for these guys as I did the crocodile hunter dying.
