∙ 10y agoIt depends on the size and intensity of the tornado and the size and shape of what is being tossed. Objects can be thrown over 1/4 mile. Light objects are often not thrown, but can be carried into the upper atmosphere, where strong winds can carry them hundreds of miles.

∙ 7y agoLarge objects such as cars have been thrown distances of over a quarter a mile and carried in the air for up to a mile. Very light objects such a pieces of paper have been carried up to 300 miles, but not by the tornado itself. Such light objects are lifted into the upper atmosphere, where they are carried by the strong winds of the upper atmosphere.

Seek shelter. If you can get yourself underground, that's the best place to be.

See related links for video of the infamous 1991 tornado in which a group survived a small tornado under an overpass, and a link to tornado myths.
