This is a cool segment about the chase team, their vehicles, and storm chasing information, and then some. *UPDATED INFORMATION* The TIV crew takes precautions to help ensure their safety. In addition to using data from their instruments and those of other chasers to gauge the strength of the storm, they wear helmets and goggles during their intercept attempts. A worst case scenario for the chase crew would include: A rapidly strengthening tornado, or wind speeds much higher than those recorded on the TIV instruments or estimated based on other chasers' data An impact from the most powerful part of the funnel A broadside impact, where the surface area of the TIV is greatest With these factors present, a tornado could theoretically lift or move the TIV, or pull it apart.
