[VIDEO] Inside a Tornado, and the Aftermath of Typhoon Soudelor

Posted 2021-04-20 CityWeekendShanghai

As Typhoon Soudelor—the largest typhoon of 2015—ripped its way over Taiwan , the mega storm left 20 people dead in its wake. The typhoon’s power was captured on several incredible videos.

In this clip from Tainan in southern Taiwan , a dashcam captures a car being strafed by a tornado that emerged from the typhoon. (Note the womann who appears to be sitting on the side of the road as the twister passes.)

In this clip (that’s going viral around the world), strong winds fling a scooter several meters into the air.

The destructive storm’s aftermath is also generating some positive images. Below, people pose with postal boxes bent by Soudelor’s gale force winds. Taiwanese authorities have said that they will leave the boxes crooked as tourist attractions and as a reminder of the storm’s power.
