Man rides out tornado inside van. See the footage | CNN

I don’t usually comment but... that's honestly insane how much destruction that tornado caused . I mean, it's one thing to watch the news and see pictures of damage on TV, but for someone to experience it firsthand like that is just mind-blowing. The fact that he was able to survive in his van is just amazing, I don’t know what else to say . It's crazy how much more we learn from tragedies like this about the unpredictability of severe weather and the importance of staying informed .

Just watched that crazy vid on YouTube where that dude was driving and then suddenly EF-3 tornado hits he's like totally hiding inside his pest control van and it just holds up against all that wind it's wild how fast things can go from calm to insane, reminds me of when I was driving in LA and got stuck in traffic for hours... anyway, glad that dude made it out alive

Man, this tornado story got me thinking... like, how lucky that dude was to have a van as shelter . It's crazy to think about how one tiny decision (or lack thereof) can be the difference between life and death. We often take for granted the little things in our lives, but they can end up being our biggest saving grace . It's also a reminder that sometimes, it's not about having the perfect plan or preparation, but just being present and adaptable when life throws you curveballs . The guy who got hit by the tornado was literally stuck in the moment, so to speak, and managed to make the most of it - that's some serious mindfulness right there . Anyway, just a thought - stay alert, stay safe, and always keep your wits about you!

this is just heartbreaking... cant believe how devastating those tornadoes are .. 165mph winds?! that's insane... and for coombes to find shelter in his van, wow what a lifesaver! its crazy how quickly things can turn sour from calm communities like little rock . hope everyone affected is getting the help they need
