Post by: jbeers285 on May 02, 2012, 02:10:07 AM
tonight in the storm out here i was at work and was chasing down a trash can that was blowing away when a gust of wind lifted me 2 feet in the air and threw me about 10 feet (while in the air i compeleted a 720) when i landed it knocked the wind out of me and i skid about ten more feet so i got road rash on my arm and leg . . scary but intense . . . also it flipped the dumpster

for all of u that dont know me i am 6"2 290 so that wind had to be moving

Whoa. Minnesota had some thunder and lightning but you certainly got the worst of it.

Well I don't think it was classified a tornado but that was by far the biggest gust I experienced I have road rash all over my right side and lots of soreness and stiffness in my elbow and shoulder but I'm glad I'm ok God was watching out for me.

I bet I was in the air about 1.2 seconds but the amount of praying I did would normally have taken me an hour to get it all in lol
