As the saying goes, it's not the fall that kills you; it's the landing. People who are picked up by tornadoes are likely to strike the ground with a signficant amount of force when they fall back down, often causing serious injury or death. In addtion a person caught in a tornado in any sort of structure is liket to be hit by flying debris. Most deaths in tornadoes are caused by debris, not from being picked up.
Some of the weirdest things that have been sucked up by tornadoes include cars, animals, and household items like furniture and appliances. In some rare cases, tornadoes have even picked up and carried heavy objects like trees or roofs for miles.
People can die in tornadoes from traumatic injuries caused by flying debris, structural collapses, or being thrown by the force of the wind. Additionally, the impact of a tornado can lead to drowning if people are caught in floodwaters. Injuries sustained during tornadoes can range from minor to fatal, depending on the severity of the storm and the level of preparedness and shelter available.
Yes, everything can be sucked in to a black hole, even light
When you are sucked into a black hole you'll get destroyed. The matter of your body will remain in the black hole.
If a tornado occurs over a body of water where fish are present, the fish may get caught up in the strong winds and be lifted out of the water. Once the tornado dissipates and the fish fall back to the ground, they may suffer injuries or die upon impact.
It can be. However, some people have been sucked up by tornadoes and tossed just fine somewhere else. I hope you enjoy flying!
Most tornadoes don't pick up, kill , or injure anyone. When it does happen it is usually no more than a few people; most tornado deaths are from being hit o crushed by debris. Exact figure are difficult to determine as this is not the sort of thing of which extensive records are kept.
The tornado sucked the car right up into the air. The vortex below those rapids sucked my canoe right out from under me!

depends on the strength of it. if your sheltered, you should be fine. but if your outside during a tornado it's possible. **The odds are good if you are caught without cover underground in a F3 tornado. You do not actually get sucked up but blown away in the strong wind. Reports say that the actual danger does not come from being carried away by the winds but having being hit by large flying stuff picked up also.
Air is continuously moving up in a tornado. This means that air surrounding the tornado must move in to replace the rising air.
The famous pair who were sucked up in their house by a tornado in their sleep are the characters Dorothy and Toto from the movie "The Wizard of Oz". In the movie, they were swept away to the magical land of Oz.
People caught in a tornado can be tossed and carried along with the swirling winds, ending up anywhere within the storm's path. Typically, they can be found scattered over a wide area, depending on the tornado's strength and the distance it carries them.
If you are picked up by a tornado it is most likely that you will be thrown by it and most likely die on impact. However, in a few cases people have survived being carried by tornadoes with only minor injuries.
Air in and near a tornado spirals inward and upward very rapidly. The strong winds can pick up objects to carry with them.

A tornado has low pressure at its center and a powerful updraft. As a result air rapidly rushes inward and upward, sometimes carrying things with it.
