On Monday, BNVN Weather Paparazzi Eric Treece was chasing one of the several tornadoes that formed in eastern Colorado along Highway 71 south of Brush, CO.

In the footage, Eric is standing underneath a rope tornado that is less than a quarter mile away from him on the ground and rises up and extends over him as it goes up to the cloud base. The video pans back to the ground and back up to the cloud base to show how large and how long the tornado actual is.

As you watch this footage, note that the tornado from the clouds does extend to the ground but there is rotation on the ground. The condensation funnel of the tornado is invisible until it touches the ground and throws debris into the air.

Brandon then takes flight and shows what the ride was like from INSIDE the basket of a balloon as it ascends over the field. You can see a very large crowd, and a large amount of balloons still left to launch.

The footage continues from inside the basket as the balloon continues its climb and shows a very wide view from nearly 1500 feet, this shot shows all of the huge crowd and the other balloons.

The pilot of this flight was Spencer Conlin, one of the youngest pilots at the national competition. The shot encompasses the balloons in the background, showing the beauty of the competition, but you can see the determination in his face as well.

As the video ends, it shows all of the balloons from a very wide angle as they have all taken off then ends from the ground, of a balloon slowly landing over the hill. As it moves across the shot, another balloon comes into view from behind.
