I think it was a Tornado about 5 sec . When it picked up the gazebo thingy. What a frighting thing to happen to those people.

Xeven,

Thats some pretty wild video.
Like the "Finger of GOD" !
I noticed, that in the video, there were 2 kinds of people, the curious.
and the "WTF?RUN!"

We get a lot of those here, not usually THAT large, I live next to a Playa, thats
covered in alkalai salts, really powdery.
Sometimes, HUGE rotating columns will form, white from the dust, on the big flat areas..
Just standing in place. If a cloud pops in front of the Sun, they deflate, and just sorta fall to the ground..
