Can a tornado suck 70 people at a time?
Probably not at one time. While it is certainly possibly for a tornado to kill 70 or more people in a short period of time, most people who die in a tornado are not picked up, but are struck by debris or crushed in collapsing structures. In most cases of deaths, even in very violent tornadoes, bodies are found fairly close to where they originated. A large group of people standing in the open could get picked up by a large tornado, but this is a very unlikely scenario as people will usually be inside if a tornado is approaching.
What are three dangerous things that can happen during a tornado?
Objects can be picked up by tornadic winds and become deadly projectiles. Structures can collapse, potentially crushing people inside. People can even be picked up and hurled to their deaths.
How do people die from a tornado?
It's not the tornado by itself that kills people, it's the collapsing buildings and the flying debris thrown around by the wind that's really dangerous. Though, in less common instances some people are picked up and thrown by the winds.
