As I sit here attempting to recovery 30 GB of pictures off of my cousin's busted computer, I am watching Storm Chasers. Storm Chasers is apparently a series about a group of men that run around attempting to film and gather data about really dangerous storms.
While doing this, they run around very excited shouting and screaming about how "awesome" this potentially life threatening storm is. As the storm forms in a residential neighborhood, you can see cars of people trying to escape with whatever possessions they can strap to the top of their cars. Yet the "Storm Chasers" are driving directly at the storm. Stopping at the side of the road to use their radar and take more film.
It must be exciting for these people to film wind blowing over people's homes, communities, and memories. It's great that these people manage to edit this show together to make it seem like these assholes are "extreme danger junkies".
Their lingo is awful, their attitude is awful, and the show is awful. I hope that tornado catches them; I hope they get ripped from the car, vaulted directly up the ass of a large cow and they suffer a very smelly suffocating death. AND I hope that somebody films their stinky death - it would make for great television.
