Belgium: severe tornado tears through town sending debris skywards

A tornado left destruction in its wake after it barreled through central Belgium this week, tearing up a local stables and sending debris flying skywards.

Extensive damage was inflicted on a number of properties in Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Waver and Putte, which lies between Brussels and Antwerp, during Wednesday afternoon’s storm.

Around 40 homes were impacted across a stretch of some 2.5 miles, according to officials, with roofs ripped from some houses.

  1. Typical overreacting female… Never seen paper and cartboard fly in the wind???
    Im from Belgium and seriously this does not impress me at all…

  2. Not being overly familiar with tornadoes this person literslly watch her world start to disintegrate right in front of her eyes

  3. I live in Oklahoma and we'd be up on the roof in lawn chairs drinking beer and watching that baby tornado going by.😂

  4. Run, people! Find shelter, don't stand there looking at it screaming! I swear, half the people in the world have lost all their survival instincts for the sake of a social media video.

    I'm from the Midwest. I take tornadoes and storms seriously.
