Full ep, no ads. No url really, it was obtained via ..... methods. However I think sometimes the eps are put up on youtube if you want to put up with crap quality in the mean time.

I dont have Sky either, the internet provides ;)

Brian, You should have asked when I came over last. I had season 1, 2, 3 on my Macbook!

Although The season 1 is the actual DVD that I got!

Its very hard to get the DVD's off Discovery as they only ship to the U.S, so you need family/m8s in the US to send them to you.....

Tim Samaras and Carl Young intercept a tornado near Campo, CO on May 31, 2010. Great footage from Twistex! And a nice dedication to Matt Hughes at the end.

Wow, that comes up so quickly it looks almost like an explosion is propelling it. See the guy finally get out of his truck and run when it did it the second time. That's an awfully big lid the truck hit.

I know that the Reed & co with the Dominator were actually on Mythbusters (don't know if that ep has aired in the states yet), but it was a special Mythbusters/Storm Chasers crossover , I think the TIV was on the episode too. That could have been where the 4x2 came from.

Just watched Episode 6 with the Bowdle Tornado and it was outstanding. That tornado was officially rated EF4.

Are you familiar with how to use Torrents? Won't say much else lest I risk breaking some forum rules on things like that, if there are any.

Never mind, it loaded quicker after the 1st half for some reason, got to see it all in the end, amazing 8-o The sound those big power-pylon things made as they were twisted apart was pretty amazing to hear! Great footage

Hmm, that was pretty intense! Foggy, how close did you guys get to that F4?

Poor Sean, Josh is a tool. Change the flamin driver of the TIV, not take it out of the game :(

The impression I get is Josh hates Sean & the TIV, everything about it, I question just why he is even backing them - other than for his own personal scientific gain. I think he is more worried about how it reflects on him than it does the film project. He's your typical douche. In saying that, Sean is kind of a douche too sometimes.
