Ah, heck no: Plane takes off as tornado touches down behind it
Nope.
Nope nope nope nope nope.
Twitter user Robbie Kane (@robbiekane74) shared an image with the world earlier today of a plane taking off as a tornado was touching down behind it. The plane was headed for Spain as it departed East Midlands Airport in England.
