Most definitely they snatch up houses, trucks, cars, cows etc. a human for a tornado is a light load to pick up and spit out.
It varies depending on where the tornado goes and how strong it is. In addition to dirt even weak tornadoes can pick up pieces of vegetation and any light, loose objects that happen to be in their path. Stronger tornadoes can pick up light vehicles, roofs, and outbuildings. The very strongest tornadoes can lift virtually anything, including whole trees, well-constructed houses, train cars, and even pieces of asphalt.
False. Most objects picked up by a tornado will be ejected in a matter of seconds.
Tornadoes pick up dust and many other materials. The other materials that a tornado is capable of picking up include trees, power poles, the roofs off of houses, and entire mobile homes.
Not really. Sometimes small whirlwinds will pick up snow. These may be called snow devils. They are not tornadoes by any means.
No. Depending on the way the light hits the tornado and the color of the dust a it may pick up a tornado can also be black, white, brown or red.
They can pick up endangered animals or plants, and I suppose if a rare jewel was lying around, they could pick it up.
No. Most tornadoes are not strong enough to lift very heavy objects. Very violent tornadoes can pick up structures such as houses and churches but even tornadoes like that only produce such winds along a relatively small portion of the damage path.
Yes. Tornadoes have been known to lift up airplanes.
Yes. Tornadoes are incredibly powerful.
Tornadoes are just rapidly moving columns of air. The reason that they are black is because that is the color of the dirt that they pick up.
Yes. People have been picked up by tornadoes. Violent tornadoes can pick up objects far larger and heavier than people.

Air in a tornado move upward rapidly and can carry objects with it.
It is actually quite rare for a tornado to pick up an entire building. Such things usually only happen in EF4 and EF5 tornadoes. Such tornadoes have extremely powerful winds that spiral upward. The upward motion can exert more force on a building than gravity does, and thus lift it into their.
some people die of tornadoes because if they are outside the tornado can pick them up and throw them down so hard they can die.
On rare occasions, yes. Such massive objects have been known to be lifted up by tornadoes of F4 and F5 intensity. Only about 1% of tornadoes are this strong.
Tornadoes in the U.S. are called tornadoes.
