the odds of being killed in a tornado are actually (approximately) one in two million. weird, huh?
depends on the strength of it. if your sheltered, you should be fine. but if your outside during a tornado it's possible. **The odds are good if you are caught without cover underground in a F3 tornado. You do not actually get sucked up but blown away in the strong wind. Reports say that the actual danger does not come from being carried away by the winds but having being hit by large flying stuff picked up also.
The Tri-State tornado killed 71 people in Indiana
It is not possible to stand in the middle of a tornado. The winds would be too strong to even get there. People have been know to be picked up by a tornado and thrown several miles away without being killed.
Very low actually. On average 60 people in the U.S. are killed by tornadoes each year. This makes up less than one hundredth of one percent (<.01%) of all U.S. deaths
There were numerous tornadoes in Oklahoma in 2013, three of which were killers. The Shawnee EF4 tornado of May 19 killed 2 people. The Moore EF5 tornado of May 20 killed 24 people. The El Reno EF3 tornado of May 31 killed 8 people.
Zero. If you are killed in a hurricane, you are already dead, so you can't be killed by a tornado.
Living out your whole life in tornado alley, you still may or may not see a tornado in your life. The odds of being in a tornado are probably about 1/300. Over an entire life....maybe less.
The odds, unbelievably, are 1,264 to 1
Very very low.
Slim to none!
1 in 5 billion.
The odds of a person being killed by an asteroid are miniscule. Some calculate the odds of being hit at 1 in 250,000. This is a very small chance though slightly more likely than getting killed by lightening.

They killed thousands of people my friend.
