THE BEST Storm Chasing DVD’s!!

PLEASE                                  DONATE to

On May 22, 2011 the unthinkable happened…an EF-5, 3/4 to 1 mile wide tornado developed within seconds and tore through the heart of Joplin Missouri.  Leaving in its wake complete and total destruction.  The Joplin EF-5 ranks as the 7th deadliest tornado in U.S. history and most like will be the costliest.


Legendary and Emmy Award winning Storm Chaser Jeff Piotrowski and Published Photographer/Storm Chaser Kathryn Piotrowski captured every stunning, heart gripping moment in HD from two camera perspectives.  This footage is "the best tornado footage you will ever see" shot at incredibly close range from inside the wrap around of the tornado and within blocks of the violent core…flying debris pelting their chase vehicle "The War Horse".


With debris still falling all around them and the deafening roar of the tornado slowly fading, Jeff and Kathryn Piotrowski went into search and rescue mode…they were the first to arrive on Iowa St., which took a direct hit from the core of the EF-5.  Jeff began pulling people from the rubble and Kathryn pulled large, twisted metal beam debris out of the road for rescuers and emergency personnel to gain access.


Survivors, Amber Munson, Ryan Tackett, Mark Lindquist as told by his sister Linda Lindquist-Baldwin, Lucian Myers and Judy Owens-Lowe share their unique stories of survival and courage.


Joplin begins immediate recovery with the help of thousands of volunteers and The Spirit of Joplin thrives as they begin to rebuild their beautiful community.  True Heroes live in Joplin, they wear the badge of honor proudly that says…I AM JOPLIN!

Read The Reviews On The Joplin DVD -                   

Just finished the DVD!!!!! 

Best storm chase video that I have ever seen. There were parts where I had to sit back and take a deep breathe. Jeff & Kathryn did a fantastic job documenting this storm. While they were driving down 20th Street I almost felt like I was riding in the truck with them. So emotional listening to y'all talk about what happened. Keep up the great work.                       

-Joshua C. Crowley

"Thinking will not overcome fear but action will." ~ W. Clement Stone Before you know it, severe weather will once again be upon us…Are you and your family prepared? TwisterChasers.Com, Inc. supports NOAA'S current initiative "A Weather Ready Nation". It may sound cliche' but Thomas Fuller, 1608-1661 had the right idea ~ "In fair weather prepare for foul". We are excited about this national awareness campaign, as we all know, too many lives were lost to severe weather in 2011. It is up to each and every one of us to make clear, precise and strategic plans for ourselves and our families, preparing for the survival of any severe weather event. Our, TwisterChasers, personal initiative is "Not one Life Lost in 2012" and we are going to keep adding extreme weather safety tips as well as links to severe weather safety throughout the year. Safety Tip#1 The kids more than likely have helmets…what about the adults? When a tornado siren sounds and you activate your plan…EVERYONE should wear a helmet to the designated “safe area”. If you can protect your head, as well as your main body, your chances of survival go up tremendously. Stay Safe in 2012!http://www.nws.noaa.gov/com/weatherreadynation/news/122011_goodbye.htmhttp://www.nws.noaa.gov/com/weatherreadynation/news/122011_goodbye.htmshapeimage_18_link_0shapeimage_18_link_1
