can you believe this guy Coombes just rode out a tornado in his van?? 
I mean, I know he's been in pest control for years and all, but still... that's crazy talk! 
The fact that he stayed safe inside while everything around him was getting smashed is honestly mind-blowing. 
It's a real testament to human strength and instincts, you know? 
And yeah, the video of this just went viral - everyone's talking about it online 
I think Cody Coombes is either a total rockstar or completely crazy (or maybe both? 
) but honestly, I'm so proud of him for staying calm and thinking on his feet. Like, what would we do if we were in that situation? 
It's giving me all the feels to see someone being so brave and selfless. 
i don't think I could have handled that situation and lived to tell the tale. kudos to Coombes for being so brave and level-headed under extreme pressure, though 
But seriously, the fact that he managed to stay safe inside that tiny space while everything else was getting destroyed outside is just MIND-BLOWING 
I'm literally shook by this story, can't wait to see more updates on how Coombes is doing after this terrifying ordeal 
. Anyway, I hope Cody gets the recognition and support he deserves for his bravery 
. Has anyone else seen that video? 
. The footage is pretty intense though, can't deny that. But let's not forget about all the people affected by this tornado and those who didn't make it 
now i'm never getting in my car during a thunderstorm lol 
anyway i hope Coombes is doing alright after that trauma, needs some therapy for sure
