10 Things You DIdn't Know About Twister

I have been addicted to your channel I don’t know why. I just love movies. Bill Paxton is the only person who can be in a movie. And steal the show in 15 minutes. But rest in peace Bill Paxton he will always be missed.

IT'S THE WONDER OF NATURE BABY!!!!!! RIP Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Bill Paxton

Fun 90's flick that actually still holds up. Wonderful cast as well, can't believe two of the best actors are no longer with us..

I have a few additional facts to add about the film,Twister. As someone from Oklahoma, I’m very happy that this film was made to allow others to see what we experience every year in the Spring, however tornadoes can happen thru out the year, if the conditions are right. I have even seen a pea green sky when I was 14, when a tornado destroyed a nearby town of Union City! Here’s some more interesting facts! 1) The field project sponsored by NOAA and University of Oklahoma did exist under the name TOTO (TOtable TOrnado observatory) This took place during our tornado seasons from 1981-1984. Unfortunately it wasn’t as successful as it was in the film! 2) The town Wakita 24 months prior to filming the movie had grapefruit sized hail, which is believed why it was chosen for the film! 3) The farm that survived the tornado at the end of the movie was actually wiped out by a tornado in 2010. 4) Bill Paxton’s thoughts on a more intense Twister film would have definitely been something to see due to he grew up in Ft. Worth, Texas, which is also in Tornado Alley. I’m sure he experienced going down in the cellar a time or two and saw a tornado’s aftermath first hand. 5) We actually experienced a tornado of that magnitude on May 3 and 4th of the year 1999. Multiple supercell thunderstorms on those two days created 72 tornadoes, which killed 40 people and left 3,300 families homeless! The strongest was an EF-5 that developed by the city of Chickasha. It went thru many towns and cities leaving utter destruction before it dissipated back to the sky. It left a path of devastation for miles and miles, which our governor called for a state of emergency that required the National Guard to be called to protect the damaged neighborhoods from looters. There were many people that had severe injuries, such as a woman that was scalped, but they have recovered and are walking miracles! We have since rebuilt and have actually grown, but anyone who was alive and living in Oklahoma on those days can tell you what they were doing at that time. I hope that my additional facts were of interest to your viewers.

Cameron Fry: "God Meg, that's a lot of Beef.. Where'd you get all this Beef? Meg: " Did you see my cows out front?" Cameron Fry: "No" Aunt Meg: "Ah, Oha"

Bonus fact: Twister was the first movie released on DVD.

One of my favorite lines from a movie. "I gotta go, we got cows." Great stuff.

You should talk about how Van Halen created two great songs for this movie. "Human Beings" and "Respect the Wind" which is played on the ending credits. Eddie really created a masterpiece with that last song. RIP Eddie

Another fun fact, it helped boost sales of the Dodge Ram affectionately known as the Paxtonmobile. RIP

Storm chasers: "You're back!" Bill: "I'm not back!"

The "Food Food" bit was all down to aunt Meg's legendary steaks.

Hey Minty I was an extra in Twister, Bill Paxton was a nice guy.

The relationship was one of the strongest components of the film.

The soundtrack by Van Halen is pretty badass to listen!

Personally I think that the back and forth between Paxton and Hunt is a huge part of what made the movie.

Hey Minty, love this video and the rest of them.  I live and work in Norman, Oklahoma at the National Weather Center.  In the lobby we have "Dorothy" and other weather observation equipment on display.  Our small eatery here is also called The Flying Cow.  Just thought you'd like to know.  Keep up the great work!!

A world with no Bill Paxton just feels wrong.

@8:20 as a real storm chaser I always loved the attention to detail here with the giant wedge shaped tornado as they were attentive enough to include the rotating wall cloud/mesocyclone of the parent storm that is often seen with real supercell thunderstorms with strong long tracked tornadoes.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Bill Paxton were the reason Twister was so good. R.I.P.

LOVE this movie! I had no idea Bill Paxton had died..Awwww...He was a great actor! May he forever rest in peace!
