RIP indeed but then there is this...

Ron White: There was a guy, down in Florida, who said that the age of 53 years old he was in good enough physical condition to withstand the wind, rain, and hail of a force-5 hurricane. Now, lemme explain somethin' to ya: It isn't *that* the wind is blowin'. It's *what* the wind is blowin'. If you get hit by a *Volvo*, it don't matter how many sit-ups you did that mornin'.

Exactly. I saw pics of the Moore (OK) Med Ctr walls pierced by boards, poles, straw, wire - all sorts of debris - and that’s usually what’s fatal to humans and animals, unless they get sucked-up into the vortex and carried-off to the next state. With all the debris flying, that would be like being inside a blender, turned on *shred* setting.
