BBC documentary "Storm Chaser: The Butterfly and the Tornado" about a severely disabled woman from England who came to Oklahoma to chase tornadoes.
Some video of her in Tulsa as well.

What a grateful and daring attitude... her disability isn't in her mind when she's chasing down the storms.

Thanks for posting this....sweet dire.

23 minutes in is the Oklahoma part. She's really 'rushing' through...

Good show.  Gonna go home and watch the whole thing.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.
