Sorry for the late response, but thank you for your comment. Totally agreed: very violent, and it seemed to come and go in a snap!

+jorden SPITTLE I was thinking the same thing! Like what is that rooster thinking right now as he looks around!

+Say Rock haha lol

HAAA....i thought the same thing lolol.

Animals are not stupid, they will always try to survive by instinct

Haha, lucky rooster.

Well, yes.

Well people already knew about these several centuries ago, a thousand years ago tho

Its probably why some cultures worshipped Gods pertaining to the weather.

The Dummyblondes made sense

Idiots still do believe that whenever a storm like this hits 🤣

Yeah, it was one of the wildest and meanest cyclones I've been in. It was scary stuff!

how low did the MB go down to at the area where you road out the storm? awesome video, I love hurricanes, have been in 8 so far, since the hotel did not blow over I would guess CAT 4 is what you saw, then again a CAT 5 does not always blow every building over

+iCyclone Ikr!

Jonathan R. The hurricane was a strong Cat 4 at landfall.

@@iCyclone I didn't think a cat 4 storm could pack 214MPH winds

Why no replies!

Today the hurricane season starts I can't wait to see your guys vids you and icylone are the best!

How dare the captions make me laugh.l...

lol

Lol

+THESilver yep😂

Galveston: 0, Earth: 2

Give it a couple decades. By then, hurricanes will be able to level cities without even trying.

Malcolm Morin yup but by then we would have already destroyed earth and would be living on mars

And now in 2017 , Mexico: 0 - Earth - Quake: 3

+arcane35 Wow, thank you very much, arcane. I really appreciate that, and I'm glad you liked the video! Thank you. :)

Actually I'm pretty sure it was 130kt at landfall, but still incredibly terrifying.

@@tvold9204The exact landfall intensity of Patricia is uncertain as said on Josh Morgerman’s official report, and although 130 knots is the official intensity, the intensity could have been a little stronger, possibly at Category 5 status.

@@tiv2cosmic234 Yes that is a possibility. Patricia's winds debarked and defoliated trees as a significant to violent tornado might do, so I could see it being a cat 5. I guess we'll never know for sure.

@@tiv2cosmic234gusts for sure well over category 5.

@@iCyclone 🤣😏

Thank you very much, Tansen. I really appreciate that. We were glad to help any way we could.

+arizonatsunami It's expected. The TVs are attached to the wall, not the ceiling, and they have a much smaller surface area for the wind to act on than the roof. If the walls remain intact, it's common for stuff like that to happen. It happens in tornadoes too.

Lessinath I know that, but I was just surprised that some flying debris didn't hit it or something.

Well, the walls on all four sides of the room were intact - so the number of possible trajectories something could hit it from, especially given the wind direction, is really limited.

But those TVs ARE THICCC

TVs are hurricane proof

I'm also from NY, and I've also have never have been through such a horrible thing...I agree man...

Thanks, Adam! Glad you liked the video. Yeah, wind like this is pretty crazy-- it's hard to imagine what it's like until you're in it.

Loved it. You guys are brave as hell honestly, I have a ridiculous amount of respect for you..

Adam Hagen Wow, thanks very much, Adam-- really appreciate that. :)

Adam Hagen I think a hurricane might hit new york soon idk

Hey, thanks, Jay! Glad you liked the video. 👊

Ye...

Agreed! I should have. :)

2 storms that reached 200mph 1961 - 2015 2013 didn't make it rip haiyan was about to go to 200 rip

Here in fiji tropical cyclone winston reached catogory 5 with wind speeds of up to 354KMPH whis is around 220MPH

Cat 5 Hurricane Patricia more like CATOGORY 6

@@shady714 That winds was probably gusts. Winston has 175 MPH winds or 280 KPH.

Awww, thank you so much. I so appreciate that. 👊

@@iCyclone np brother!!!

Holy shit...

Jan Menes yaa ma buut

+Jan Menes typhoon haiyan had 305 max wind before landfall at tacloban city and she was also a cat. 5 hurricane haiyan was stronger than patricia

Actually, PATRICIA was stronger, according to official data. HAIYAN's max 1-min sustained wind was estimated at 170 knots. PATRICIA's was way higher, at 185 knots (and that was actually measured by recon). However, PATRICIA weakened before landfall, so HAIYAN was stronger *at landfall*.

Keep in mind that all mexican houses are made out of concrete blocks and steel rods in between them. If this was a wooden usa house it would have been completely destroyed

Hey, thanks so much, Pat! I appreciate that-- and I agree with you: PATRICIA is a great illustration of how bad a hurricane can get.

pat quinn I was in Harvey you have no idea how bad the wind and water was

Yeah watch the news about it and see the damage!

he is actually, he is called josh morgerman and has a tv program where he attempts to chase major hurricanes. the program is called “hurricane man”

+doctorzoidberg2005 Yep! That's exactly what it was-- we were on the edge of the eye at the time. When I went back over everything and looked at it-- along with the data-- I realized that's what was happening. Good eye, by the way-- for noticing the change in wind direction. :) Thanks for watching the video-- glad you liked it!

You can actually see the edge of the eyewall in the right edge of the horizon. If I'm not mistaken. The calm part was the southeast part of the eye.

Michael Espeland what time in the vid?

@@ethreat1477 5:25 - 5:36

6:32-6:36, Excuse me.

Agreed! The backside of the hurricane's core-- after the eye-- was very much like a tornado-- how suddenly it swept in and how violent it was.

+iCyclone Yes! You also recorded 7:10-8:37 how violent windspeeds are. What happens if it hits America?

I had an eight week old when Hurricane Charley passed to our north. He slept. By the time Wilma came around, that eight week old baby was 14 months old, and the storm was closer. I was on top of him in a closet and he was asleep. That low pressure, man. . . .

*And adults are scared*

Well, babies don’t even know what’s happening.

Yup.

Correct. We were in the eye at that point.

Correct

Adrian Demesa i

It’s called the eye-wall

+Mike7493 Pretty sure it grows back. This isn't Nature's first rodeo.

+Mike7493 I live in the area (exactly 10 minutes North of this village) and I am amazed to see how fast nature can recover. The mountains are starting to look green again, and the animals are coming back.

+Mike7493 Yeah, blpao is right on... it's greening up quickly (I live at Cuixmala just across the way from Zapata). By the way, when I came out of sheltering the "green" smell of shredded leaves was one of the first sensations to greet me. Even the day after the storm there was lots of wildlife about. On a four hour hike to and from the beach, I only saw one dead bird and one very little javelina that was clearly separated from its group. One group that took a hit were the hummingbirds. These guys with their high metabolism have to feed pretty constantly. The day after the storm there weren't many flowers and they were staying close to the few ornamental plants that still had flowers. The next day they were clearly weak as you could go over and pick them up. Since then, I haven't seen any. A friend over at the biological foundation mentioned that he hadn't seen any deer and to think of it, I haven't either. We're hoping that they pulled through as well as the big cats here (jaguars and pumas) that feed on them.

Oh heya Mike 7493...

WORRY NOT! THE TREE'S WILL SURVIVE!

Climate Functional Videos By Dipen :o

LordDoggos Yes :D

@Pulling the Strings Lol 😂

Pulling the strings Yup

Super cyclone 1

Dr.Beef wind speed similar to an EF4, but totally different. The shift in wind direction is what separates the two. Hurricane = Wind shift every 10 seconds. Tornado = Wind shift every 3 seconds. It truly makes a substantial difference. Thank you!

It was 205 winds and it WAS LIKE EF5 IN 6:32-6:36

Justine Gueco nothing like an EF5 tornado.

@@BamaDega if it would've landed falled at peak intensity 215mph sustained I'm getting 280+ gusts , would've been very similar so an ef5

And lasting a lot more

Yep! It really did look like tornado damage! Thank you for watching my video. :)

These damages were nothing compared to HAIYAN

Jericho Morales Because Haitian hit structures that were actually garbage lol.

@@jerichomorales6676 those asian areas have houses made of garbage, this hurricane has the record of strongest winds ever

+heelsfantim Hey, thanks VERY MUCH!! Glad you dug the footage! :) Yeah, it bugged me the way some folks afterward suggested that it was hyped. Folks in these small villages in its path sure didn't feel that way! My lowest pressure was 937.8 mb, but I think the real story was the incredible gradients I measured in the core. Here's my full report, if you feel like really nerding out: goo.gl/Yn5Ftx

+heelsfantim P.S. I did not measure winds, unfortunately!

+iCyclone Great detailed report!!! That is some very incredible pressure data and damage photos!! I can only imagine how terrified you'll must have been during the peak intensity (it looked exactly like some footage O have watched that occurred during violent tornadoes). Thanks for sharing the link!!!

+heelsfantim Hey, thanks! Yeah, it was pretty scary, I will admit. I'm glad you liked the report. Thanks for checking it out. :)

Wow, thank you so much! It was a pretty scary experience and I'm just glad we got through it OK. I think having small children there raised the stakes, because we knew at all costs we had to protect them.

God bless you! Have a great day

Thank you! :)

Yeah, it did! Very sudden. Really surprised me!

Sorry to be so late, but thank you for this nice comment that I never saw! :)

@@reizuemcoc5900 yeah

Possibly! It was really unsafe to be out there by that point! :)

+iCyclone definitely

Yeah D:

Man.. if this monster would've landed falled at its peak intensity I really really doubt him and the people where would've came out unscathed, bc 215 mph winds SUSTAINED are deadly very very deadly

WWE Lover Griffin Everyone should know if they already don't

GriffinSheppard13 Nope, the scale goes up to 8.5, Haitian was an 8.6 if I remember right

@@stormblade2510 its not. Haiyan was 8.2

Bahamas*

He did, and his footage is terrifying

@Shane Borbe and you bad grammar lol noob

It was not "minimal damage." It's just that the storm didn't strike any big population centers. The little town that was hit (and where this video was filmed) was devastated.

@@iCyclone ok

​@@giraffeguy6564I think you meant "dollars in damages"

Thanks so much, Pam.

The part when the wind is blowing really hard.

The Dummyblondes No, a ef3 tornado is enough to debark trees. Debarking usually starts at 140-150mph.

Yep. Exactly.

+Jorge Santiago Actually, some of this is not correct. HAIYAN's intensity was not underestimated. Everyone knew it was one of the strongest cyclones in history. Also, HAIYAN moved very fast at landfall-- over 20 knots-- whereas PATRICIA moved much slower-- at only 12 knots. The main reason HAIYAN caused more damage: it hit a large city (Tacloban City), whereas PATRICIA missed large cities (Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta). I agree with you about one thing: people were not prepared for HAIYAN. That is totally true.

+Jorge Santiago Tacloban was very close to the sea and there was a significant storm surge with Haiyan. Water wasn't much of an issue where Patricia made landfall. I think its been estimated that 85 to 90% of deaths associated with hurricanes/typhoons are water-related (storm surge, flooding, and landslides). Factors responsible for the low number of deaths with Patricia are (1) the government identified and evacuated particularly vulnerable pueblos like Chamela; (2) in 2011 Hurricane Jova came through this same area and people were aware of the seriousness of Patricia; (3) people stayed with friends and family who had particularly sturdy homes; and (4) unlike wood frame houses in the US where the stability of the entire house is compromised when the roof is lost, loss of roofs here generally did not result in the collapse of the building.

Hey, thanks, Trevor! It was a pretty intense chase-- definitely one of the scarier ones, that's for sure! Thanks for checking it out-- glad you dug it. :)

wow i am glad you all made it safe, that was crazy! great job man!

+alex hernandez Thanks, Alex-- it was pretty intense! I was not sharing anything on social media once the storm really started to hit-- we'd lost all connection with the outside world by that point.

+alex hernandez P.S. Thanks for watching the video-- glad you liked it. :)

ANDREW was actually a little stronger at landfall, but this was crazy enough! Thanks for watching the video. :)

Thanks very much, Zac. :)

+Rudy Ferido PATRICIA was stronger at its peak intensity. However, HAIYAN was stronger at landfall. (PATRICIA weakened before it hit land.)

That was the eye.
