Storm chasers: Buckle up, this extreme close-up of a tornado in Colorado will blow your mind!

A massive tornado cut through the small town of Wray, Colorado in the United States last week on Saturday. Reports said at least 5 people were injured and some buildings were also damaged.

The tornado was of EF-2 magnitude, meaning, it had its wind speed between 178 - 217 kmph with the capacity of uprooting a grown tree.

However, meteorologist and extreme storm chaser Reed Timmer was not deterred from moving dangerously close to the vortex and getting footage like never before.

Buckle up, to get blown away!
