What would it be like to be in the eye of a tornado?

There is no “eye” to a tornado like there is in a hurricane. This is a fiction largely caused by the movie Twister. Tornadoes are complex and can have multiple small structures called “sub vortices” rotating inside the larger parent circulation.

How do Tornadoes affect humans?

The biggest threat to living creatures (including humans) from tornadoes is from flying debris and from being tossed about in the wind. It used to be believed that the low pressure in a tornado contributed to the damage by making buildings “explode” but this is no longer believed to be true. Can a tornado dig up the ground?

Why is the center of a tornado so dangerous?

Evidence suggests that tornadoes mostly have calm, clear centers that have very low pressure. Why is the center of the tornado so dangerous? For someone trapped inside a tornado, they should be able to see a circular opening at the top that is about 50 to 100 feet wide, and around half a mile in height.
