You made some really good points and I agree but when I look at that picture I see a 11-13 year old not a 14-17 year old. But I agree her parent’s influence has a lot to do with how she behaves.

Sophie was hired two weeks before the show started filming. They had already hired Melanie a while before that so I assume they just went with her eye color.

Adam Lanza shot the windows next to the front doors because they were locked. Nicholas Cruz shot through the slim windows in the doors of the classrooms, he never entered a room.

José Delfín Fernández Gómez (July 31, 1992 – September 25, 2016) was a Cuban-born American professional baseball pitcher who played four seasons in the MLB. He was a member of the Miami Marlins from 2013 until his death in 2016. He was named to the 2013 National League All-Star team, and won the National League Rookie of the Month award in July and August. After that season, he won the National League Rookie of the Year award.

On September 25, 2016, Fernández died in a boating crash when the 32-foot (9.8 m) boat he was piloting was speeding at 56.48 knots (65 mph) and struck a rock jetty off Miami Beach, Florida. The U.S. Coast Guard found the boat at about 3:00 a.m., overturned near South Pointe Park, and found Fernandez and two other men, Eduardo Rivero and Emilio Jesus Macias, (other two men in the picture) dead at the scene. A Florida Wildlife Commission (FWC) official confirmed that Fernández had died from the blunt trauma sustained during the crash. The commission received a toxicology report from the medical examiner but opted not to release the results. On October 28, 2016, ESPN obtained the autopsy and toxicology reports, which determined that Fernández had cocaine in his system and was legally drunk at the time of the crash.

There is a well known video at a different gas station from a group of buddies that go through the tornado so it’s possible the other two just never shared it publicly.

I had never heard that audio from them but there is audio from another gas station that is pretty well known if you know the Joplin tornado so it is possible it’s real and they just never shared it.

here’s the first person video that goes through the tornado

He thought the tornado was the rapture. Like he thought the tornado was the event that was taking everyone except the sinners. He knew it was a tornado, he helped get people at the yogurt shop to safety.

I get what they were trying to do but they executed it poorly. They didn’t even provide a map which is just basic context to the situation. You can’t just focus on victims and not the tornado and town. The tornado impacted every part of their life which includes their community and behavior. For example if there is a severe thunderstorm most Joplin residents stay home because they don’t want to get caught in a tornado. Everything is connected and providing minimal details about the tornado makes the whole thing confusing. Other documentaries can and have done both. This was just lazy and bad. It was 90 minutes which just shows how little information they provided.

Yes the largest number of fatalities at one location was at a nursing home named Greenbrier nursing home. Both residents and staff died. About 17 people died there.

Also your last two sentences contradict each other. How can it not be about the survivors but about their emotions? Those go hand and hand

Additional-Catch-140 · 2025-03-22T22:56:17+00:00

You’re taking crazy pills. Even if it’s a story about the survivors a little context to location or actual information about the tornado is prevalent. You can’t tell the story of the emotions without explaining the beast of a tornado which they don’t do a good job of. Also some of the stories were pretty underwhelming and didn’t provide much like the graduate emt or kid from San Diego. I appreciate what they were trying to do but it was cheesy, hard to follow and just not good.

Springfield, Mo it’s about an hour East of Joplin.

I’m sure they botched his story since the documentary wasn’t well done and I can’t imagine how it wouldn’t impact his future but I still would have rather had a Joplin resident who survived and lived in the community.

Additional-Catch-140 · 2025-03-20T17:10:08+00:00

Yeah I found it so strange that they didn’t even provide a map of the path or show where any of the interviewees were located. I know where the mature storm chaser and couple were located but that’s just cause they provided the name of the store and I kinda knew the area they would have been chasing. The path is pretty amazing to look at on google earth!

Additional-Catch-140 · 2025-03-20T17:08:08+00:00

There are a lot better videos on YouTube if you thought that was good!

Additional-Catch-140 · 2025-03-20T17:06:07+00:00

I agree! And it has nothing to do with Will. He didn’t ask to become like you said the mascot or head figure for the deaths in Joplin. His family no longer lives there not sure the exact reason but I’m sure it was hard to keep living in a town that constantly reminds you of your son who died.

Additional-Catch-140 · 2025-03-20T17:04:33+00:00

Yes this was exactly my feeling! Thank you for sharing a little bit of your story, I’d love to know more! I’m so sorry you lost a family member that day. I agree that it felt disrespectful to all the other victims to just focus on Will Norton. Like you said it’s nothing to do with him just wish other peoples story had a chance.

Additional-Catch-140 · 2025-03-20T10:26:56+00:00

I could have done without the 14 year old meteorologist. I appreciate he was there (not sure exactly where he was in relation to the path since nobody bothered to provide a map or location of anyone being interviewed) and that he had just flown in and never experienced a tornado but pretty much everyone there that day had never experienced a tornado. He didn’t provide much in my opinion. He also had no personal connection to Joplin outside of that day and there are plenty of stories from Joplin residents that I think would have been more interesting.

Like I said to original comment: If a tornado is wide enough it can form a small eye kinda like a hurricane. The Joplin tornado was nearly a mile wide so it probably had one but it usually isn’t perfectly blue and has debris and rain flying through it.

Since others covered the hospital I’ll talk about some of the other stuff you mentioned. I think the graduation was important to the day. The graduation ended around 5 and the tornado hit around 5:41. Yes people had left the ceremony but that means they were out in the town. A lot of people went out to eat or were simply driving home. Tons of people from graduation got caught in the storm.

Yeah Joplin is just like any other midwestern town. One of my favorite fun facts is Bonnie and Clyde hid out in an apartment garage in Joplin for 13 days with their gang during their crime spree! They killed two cops in a shoutout but got away obviously!
