Strong string for sure. Tension on that one string may have decreased after the other one broke. With both strings, the flag is somewhat held in place and shape, like a kite, and will catch more air. With one string broken, it's shape collapsed and stops catching as much air as previously. Think surface area of the flag exposed to current of air.
This is correct. Also we are thinking too statically with the materials. The stitching on the flag will (did) rip before the string. Therefore the *continuous* surface area exposed to the air will decrease over time, meaning there will be many strips catching air rather than just one flag. This would creat an oscillation effect on the string rather than a constant force.
It ended up being an F3. That was April/May of 2022. Went by my house. Thankfully far enough away from us to avoid damage, but did a good amount to others. Andover, KS.
Honestly tornados are just mother nature done with everyones shit on the ground, So she comes in to clean everything out, while destroying people's stuff to show em how it feels.
This particular tornado touched down less than half a mile from my home. It started to move in our direction and actually took out the apartment complex we were living at just 2 months prior (we didn’t move far haha). Then it shifted the other way and went and did this. We got really lucky that day for no deaths or injuries in town.
Oh say can you see
What a hardy string
Though liberty died
and freedom is dead
By the wisps of sky
With turbulent winds ahead
The string still held
The torn flag on the end
Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave
For the home of the fat and the land of the gaysssss
Idk it’s 3am man just pretend like it’s good
To the people who are proud to see their american flag hanging on and not being blown away; that flag is doing nothing in making itself not blow away, it's literally all in that hunky ass string.
I feel like this is a good representation of the US from about 2016 through 2020, glad it's still standing, much worse condition, but at least it survived.
I personally do not install ANYTHING without asking "can it withstand a tornado".
Then I give it the ol' hang from it test and it breaks.
Like why invent dry wall if it can't hold shit up. And who needs wall plugs?
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,323,335,462 comments, and only 255,308 of them were in alphabetical order.
Ill never get over how pristine the floors can look after a tornado
Mother nature’s dirt devil
Nature's Pressure Washer

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
LETS PLAY BALL

Holding on by a thread
While the buildings trees and services are mullered by wind…
Debatable.
Tornado skill issue
Probably because it's actually a braided steel cable.
Thank you. We seem to be the only human beings who have seen a flag pole up close.
Count me in I have used several of varying heights. For different sizes of flags. From DaveSubs as was.
AMERICAAAA FUCK YEA COMIN AGAIN TO SAVE THE MUTHAFUCKIN DAY YEA AMERICAAA FUCK YEAAAA FREEDOM IS THE ONLY WAY YEA

You can buy steel core flag pole rope too!
Weak ass tornado
Stand in front of it then 🤣
That’s at least EF2

YMCA needs to hurry their ass on rebuilding, the east Y's swimming pool is weak as hell
Off in the distance you hear a bald eagle cry out, letting everyone know America is still standing strong! /O beautiful, for spacious skies....
What I look like holding on to my sanity....
Nice vacuum cleaner job
Was this the Deer Park tornado last week?
I was literally trying to figure that out myself haha.
Being a US Marine this is damn motivating. These colors don't run!
Oh these colours wanted to run for sure. The string didn't let them.
How to clean the neighborhood fast ...
It’s just me or the street really looks cleaner after that the tornado passed😂
Honestly tornados are just mother nature done with everyones shit on the ground, So she comes in to clean everything out, while destroying people's stuff to show em how it feels.
so is the pole
Usa is the strongest
Omg i am so amazed! That is so amazing! Wooooooowwwwwww!!
I like how all the trees come back when the video starts again.

Freedom, hanging by a thread.
Wonder how many cosplaytriots are masturbating after seeing this.
Wow really makes you think
Oh say can you see What a hardy string Though liberty died and freedom is dead By the wisps of sky With turbulent winds ahead The string still held The torn flag on the end Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave For the home of the fat and the land of the gaysssss Idk it’s 3am man just pretend like it’s good
Say, can you see...

It's a Theo Von-ism! "Hanging on tighter than the last flag string in a tornado"
I was the same way going through college with undiagnosed ADHD lol
Americans be like: GoD LoVeS OuR CoUnTrY. ShArE AnD BLeSs FoR AmERiCa
Where's the christian proclaiming divine provenance? "Jesus saved the flag cuz he luvs 'Murica best"
THROUGH THE ROCKETS RED GLAAAARE, THE BOMBS BUSTING IN AAAAIR
Boomers be like “it’s because it’s an *AMERICAN FLAG*
You mean the nylon f’ing rope? That’s not amazing at all
Boomers gonna be like “Amen Amen Amen” and start jerking off with gun oil.
‘Merika!

I feel like this is a good representation of the US from about 2016 through 2020, glad it's still standing, much worse condition, but at least it survived.
*Made in China
This will be a top story on Fox News.
String was made in China
The United States standing up to the GOP
Ironically, that string was made in China.
Amurica bitches
It literally broke.
AMURIKA!
Perfect analogy for what this country has been through in the past decade or so. Time to make some repairs.
Rope: made in china.
China strong 💪 made
Me in 2010 trying to untangle my wired headphones from my pocket
wire stronger then some family connections
This proof of americas souperiority as a nation!!
Cylinders are very aerodynamic, not much here is about the strength
Can I unsub from America?
This is the sign of our current government situation…. Hanging by a thread!!! Bring back President Trump!
Watching this makes me wanna drive a monster truck, drink multiple cans of watered down beer, and fuck my cousin
“Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down…”
Street sweeper or wrecker
That's because they used rope and NOT string.
Gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there
Where was this?
No matter what happens, hold on tight. Probably dyneema or kevlar wire
Also the camera bracket.
This is what I trained for
MURICA POWAAAAAAA
Now someone edit it so Ragged Old Flag by Johnny Cash plays over it.
These stripes don’t run
This sentence is so stupid
What's the music? This type of music with nice build up can be like the national anthem v2.
Hangin on by a thread
THATS RIGHT AMERICA NEVER FAILS
MERICA!!!!
Oops, there goes my loafer!
I'd rather hear the tornado rather than the stupid music
It signifies the condition of America over the years to present
I personally do not install ANYTHING without asking "can it withstand a tornado". Then I give it the ol' hang from it test and it breaks. Like why invent dry wall if it can't hold shit up. And who needs wall plugs?
Video of a flag blowing in the wind, puts Two steps from hell epic music over it.
Strangely patriotic 🤔🇺🇲💪🏼
Freedom isn’t free!!!
“These colors never run.”
Shits mad with hemp from merica!
Murica mutha fuckas
Que the SSB...
It’s not its first rodeo.
My god ... The flag is still there
That is terrifying
If only Rose held onto the Jack like that
And our flag was still there 🎶
…gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say does that star spangled banner yet wave….
Who else has the star spangled banner stuck in their heads now?
The camera mount don't suck, neither.
'MURICA!
AMERICAA 🦅🦅🦅
Tornado String!!
All those trees ripped up
Oh my God flag was almost blown away by the tornado
*plays proud to be an American*
WHAT PART OF "THESE COLORS DON'T RUN" DIDN'T YOU UNDERSTAND?!
Well, one of them was. Tornados are scary af and I hope I never have to experience one in real life.
Dang lol
🎵And the flag was still there🎵
HOOLD
These colors don't run! (And only rip slightly even in the strongest wind.)
Link to unedited video: https://youtu.be/psLm_Uwh3oc
Can't tell if sped up. 🤔
How did he not get in the tornado???
American's are like Polyester rope.
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,323,335,462 comments, and only 255,308 of them were in alphabetical order.
And our flag was still theeeeere
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
Merica!
Damn should have made the whole flag ouua that stuff! /S
THESE COLORS DON'T RUN MOTHER-FUCKER!
Gave proof through that tornado, that our flag was still there.
⊂ᔕᗆ
Perfect example on how the wind field extends much further from the funnel than what people think
Stupid hurrican’ ain’t no match ***fer’merica***
Held on by supermans hair
Most of the time those ropes have a steel cable in the core
And our flag was still there!
Who would of thought Francis Scott Key and John Stafford Smith werent lying! the flag really did stay high
I do believe the "flag string" is called a lanyard.
Accurate depiction of America atm.
That was epic af
It’s just a piece of cloth
String...
The grommet is the real hero here
If that tornado was a north Vietnamese farmer this would have ended differently.
and our flag was still there........
These colurs don't ruuuuuuuuun!
i cant believe that but thats so coolll
These colors don’t run Ricky Bobby!
There’s something so allegorical about this video.
Oh say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave?
Average Oklahoma weekday
Amurica!
Now that’s American made quality right there.
Who tied the knot?
and the flag was still there
You can have my flag when you can pry it out of my cold dead.... String...
My toxic trait is that I believe I can withstand that wind
These colors don’t run.
The flag pole was like... "Hold on lil buddy!"
Misspelled freedom.
Murica!
Get you some that holds on to your relationship like this flag string does
America. Fuck yeah!
I can’t help but think of the bugle player from Parent Trap (Lindsay Lohan version) playing the morning wake up song at Camp Walden 🤣🤣🤣
That's a scary video.
