This video was taken right after the tornado went through Brimfield on 6/1/11
The location is a couple miles from where Ed Morrow (ejm) lives. Brimfield is one of at least four towns in western mass where the tornado touched down and did considerable damage.
Ed called this morning to say he won't be at work today. His neighborhood is intact but has no power. He says most of the roads near him are impassable.

That was insane looking. I have to admit that Dude had a great attitude from the sound of his voice..... Mostly like a "I can't believe I'm alive right now" attitude. That twister sure messed up that guys place.

From what was said on the news, those two guys hid out under a set of metal stairs (the guy is standing on them to film) and rode out the twister while watching the business being torn apart.

Its a junkyard.....must have been quite a bit of stuff flying around.
