Some other interesting things are feather removal, there have been a number of historical accounts that often mention chickens that have been found stripped clean of every feather yet otherwise are intact, and in some cases, they're alive. So I don't, I feel bad for the chicken, they must not know what's going on. The theory behind this is that in the extreme stress and fright, the bird's like, what's going on you have a massive and immediate flight mold so where the feathers are loosened and then immediately stripped away by the wind so the birds are just panicked out of their mind and the their feathers are simply blown off. One of the more gruesome aspects you'll also get to are twisted bodies so of course you're dealing with extreme forces and forces can sometimes create some bizarre outcomes for humans and animals. In one report a coroner was reporting after the 2011 Alabama outbreak they found a body that appeared normal until it was noted that the entire lower half of the body was twisted in such a way that the hips and the lower torso was basically in the opposite direction from the upper torso so the person was basically twisted 180 degrees. I'm sure some contortionists can do that but I definitely can't do that and just going back real quick to this long-distance transport of documents this is one of the other oddities that occur so lighter materials papers things like that can be carried hundreds of miles by high altitude wind so essentially a light piece of paper can be lofted way way up into the storm and then the the jet stream or other strong flow of the loft will pick it up take it and it'll gradually sink back to the earth. So after the tri-state tornado of 1925 there were checks and personal documents that were discovered a hundred and twenty-five miles that's 200 kilometers away from their origin point. So those are some of the more unique cases and things that we've seen with tornadoes so 10 want me to mention that so I did and I think that that's a great there's lots of great anecdotal stories where this has happened but these are sort of the main things you get long-distance transport weird things happening to animals and humans raining animals and humans fragile survival and then inconsistent damage and localized damage and of course just immense damage and then you have precision and penetration damage, so those things like straws and pieces of hay and whatnot going into hard objects, 2x4s, etc. Alright, and that's it for the weather, I don't know if there are any comments or questions, I'll send it back to Ken, VA3VWX.
