Things HURRICANES Have Sent FLYING!
November 12th 2008 09:47
During one hurricane in the USA, witnesses noticed as a row of birds sitting on a branch had all their feathers blown off!
A young baby was found miles away from his home without a scratch on him.
In Iowa during 1962 a cow flew a full kilometre (about a half mile) during a tornado.
In the UK in 1703, a cow was discovered still alive in the uppermost branches of a tall tree. How you get a cow out of a tall tree I don't know!
In 1947 a multitude of fish were sent whipping along to land finally on a town in Louisiana - one witness included a wildlife biologist.
During an 1899 F4 tornado in Missouri, "three people, Miss Moorehouse, Mrs. Webster, and her son were caught up in the storm and carried nearly one-quarter mile. They were let down so gently that none of the three was seriously injured. Moorehouse described her incredible flight: 'I was conscious all the time I was flying through the air, and it seemed a long time. I seemed to be lifted up and whirled round and round, going up to a great height, at one time far above the church steeples, and seemed to be carried a long distance... As I was going through the air being whirled about at the sport of the storm, I saw a horse soaring and rotating about with me. It was a white horse and had a harness on. By the way it kicked and struggled as it was hurled about I knew it was alive. I prayed God that the horse might not come in contact with me, and it did not. I was mercifully landed upon the Earth unharmed, saved by a miracle."
