Well worth watching, both for the remarkable lady who is storm chaser and also for the aftermath of the Joplin otrnado - one of the most awfully devastating tornadoes to hit the US in recent times.

bum tornado. not otrnado - netbook is having a bad moment. Any way well worth watching - 'the butterfly and the tornado' is its title. also on iplayer.

Oh thank you, I never spotted that this was on. Recording it now.

cool :)

Some that this program shows the aftermath of. warning though - it is very hard hitting to watch.

That footage is very powerful. And humbling. And sad.

Thanks for this. I missed the worst of the tornado bit as was dealing with the boys.

Sam was amazing. I spent much of the show with a bit of a tear in my eye.

It is a very emotional program isnt it and very powerful in so many ways. Was in tears by the end. So much pain.

manky - I nearly sobbed the first time I saw that footage, that and this program show the reality and how much suffering these things cause.

Did you catch that Sam was wearing a torro t shirt - they are who I link to when ever we get damaging weather in this country.

I just watched the footage. So powerful and so moving.
