so a wicked storm blew through here earlier tonight. i was downtown, and it just got dark all of a sudden... checked the radar, and there's this wall of thunder coming in out of nowhere, moving at 3x the speed of a typical storm...

 

end result?

also, this new culture of disaster response = stand around filming with your phone is kinda fucked up. but hey, the videos make for good internet, right?

I don't think the people filming felt in danger of anything really. So i reckon, phone or not, they are going to be standing there viewing it out of sheer humanity. I do, however, think it kind of messed up to want to film, given the intentions could be fairly terrible.

Shit if I'm a safe distance (and want to record) then I'll sit their and record or take pictures. Its not like I'm going to go over there and put/lift the stage back together.

 

I'd help or warn any people first of course. Then there is this thing called multitasking. I can have a camera in one hand and still use my legs to GTFO.
