Tornado corridor is located in North America, Rocky Mountain and Apala LiveScience an area between, because local special climatic conditions, the region frequently encounter tornado invasion, usually in the spring, seasonal changes in climate occur.

Mankulam total spent 10 months to shoot through the tornado corridor of the storm. The danger zone covering Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Colorado and Texas United States many States.

In order to find the extreme weather vagaries, kurram sometimes a day trip up to 1000 miles (approximately 1610 km).

He said: I have hired a car just ran 6 miles (approximately 9.65 km). And so I will it matter repossessed, this car has been due to hail the wounded, and ran the 2 million miles (approximately 3.2 million km), equivalent to travel 600 miles a day on average (about 965 kilometers).

I have repeatedly been wind up, finally, was thrown to the ground.

Chasing Tornadoes, also encounter other dangerous situations, such as side wire stuck on one side and the tornado in darker conditions. Sometimes, I left the formation of tornadoes overhead is only 100 metres away. This is a really excited and nervous at the Chase, in dangerous and unpredictable environment in the last few hours.

Mankulam added: I have spectacular extreme weather photos.

Obviously, this is a very stressful experience. When nature show violent side, I also distance it so close, it's really very special. Chasing storms is both strange and let people really enjoy. You live a life of a wandering, free.
