You have to have courage and a lot of cold blood to decide to use a drone to capture images of a tornado that develops a few kilometers from you, but Brian Emfinger did it and now you can enjoy a video in view of a drone with spectacular images that demonstrate everything that is capable of generating one of the most violent phenomena in nature.
The incredible images of a tornado seen from a drone
When most of us think of using drones to capture aerial images, it is normal to do so by visualizing our own environment or that incredible landscapes from travel catalogs. Surely there are few who consider other types of images, whether they are photos or videos.
However, such people exist and have been using drones and their powerful cameras for years to capture images in much more complicated and even dangerous situations. For example, in floods, rescue tasks and other similar situations they are often used as well. Although to do it there you have to have a lot of cold blood and courage. Because you just have to see how it shakes the trees.
That was the courage Brian Emfinger had to have when he decided to stay to capture these spectacular images of a tornado . And no matter how much experience you have in hunting storms and other video recordings with a drone in extreme weather situations, if you are not careful you can be surprised and trapped by the natural phenomenon.
That was what almost happened to Emfinger, who came very close to being surprised while recording. Something that your drone cannot say that it was engulfed by the tornado and lost. Luckily, while he was recording the images they were sent to his remote control and he was then able to share them for the enjoyment of all of us.
Shocking, but dangerous images
The video captured by Brian Emfinger, who calls himself a chaser of storms and extreme climates , is clearly shocking and dangerous in equal measure. Still it is a demonstration of how interesting drones can be for all these types of situations. Because otherwise it would be almost impossible to capture images of these natural phenomena.
Even so, the tornado recording is not the only one that he has been sharing since he decided to use drones to record in situations as varied as tornadoes, storms, lightning, floods, the force with which water falls on a jacket or even the eruption of a volcano in Iceland.
The latter is a material that he has also shared on his social networks and YouTube channel. Okay, you may have seen some similar videos, but they never stop drawing attention for that vividness and contrast that lava images usually generate with those striking red tones.
In spite of everything and as we said much above, it takes a lot of courage to decide to fly a drone near all these events. And not only because you could end up losing it, but because it is easy to get so deeply into the incredible images that you still get confused and end up in danger due to the proximity to which you will logically need to fly the drone. As much as your communication systems have improved in recent years.
