A giant tornado swept through the Gomel region of the Republic of Belarus on may 24. A natural phenomenon, rare for this area, immediately became a hit on social networks.

From Gomel tornado looked like a huge rotating tube that stretches from sky to earth. The closer to the ground, the tornado darker — the reason for this pounds of dust and sand, which "sucked" funnel.

Eyewitnesses, who filmed the tornado in the video, feared for the fate of the grazing cows nearby. Fortunately, the wind had dissipated harmlessly.

May 16, the same weather phenomenon, but a much less impressive size, noticed in Astrakhan. Thin and white tornado, little roaming around the city, vanished.

What happens if you drive through a tornado in a car? The video, captured by a desperate driver in New Zealand will allow you to experience these incredible sensations with him.
