I never understood why he hung onto the door of the tornado shelter and allowed himself to be sucked out like that. Why didn't he just scoot further into the shelter where Jo, her mom, and her dog were and crouch down and do his best to shield himself and his family?
shareFalse hope I guess :(

My mom and I say the same thing every time we watch this movie (watching it right now, actually). Not sure why he thought that he could hold the door against an F5 tornado.
shareIt's one of the most ridiculous things about this movie. He didn't need to hold onto that door...his wife and kid were clearly fine down below in the cellar. It's basically used as a plot device to explain Jo's obsession with figuring out tornadoes.

In reality though, that twister was positioned directly over that storm shelter. If it can rip the door off and yank the dad out, it can CLEAN OUT that storm cellar in an instant. Scooting back a few feet from directly beneath an F5 ain't gonna help ya
shareYeah, if nuts & bolts can't take on a F5, what made him think the human body could? Desperate man with no sense of physics or common sense. For the story, he had to die, but that was the most senseless way to do it.
shareI'd agree he was desperate, and sometimes desperate people will stand up and fight back in irrational ways, rather than do nothing in the face of danger or approaching death.
So I can believe that a man would try to hold a door against a tornado rather than cower in a corner, what I can't believe is the tornado would take just him for a ride... and leave the wife and kid untouched, even though they're just six feet away from the deadly updraft.
How dare he?
