It depends on the tornado. In a weak tornado even the winds inside the funnel may not be enough to lift a person off the ground, though it would still be difficult to stand. For a large, violent tornado you might be a few hundred yards away from the funnel. Note that if you are in a position where the winds are that strong you are already inside the damage path. Even if winds are not strong enough to pick you up, you may still be knocked down or struck by debris.
Tornadoes are able to stay off the ground due to the incredibly strong updrafts and rotation within the thunderstorm that created them. These updrafts keep the tornado suspended in the air as it moves along the ground.
Unlike other extreme wind events, air in a tornado moves rapidly upward in addition to rotating rapidly. This upward movement of air creates and upward force, which can lift objects off the ground. The stronger the tornado, the larger the things that can be picked up.
A tornado forms when a mesocyclone, a powerful, rotating updraft found in some thunderstorms, tightens an intensifies. As a result, the tornado has a very powerful updraft that can lift objects off the ground.
A Tornado basically looks like a grey cone, but it moves on it's "tip". On top of the tornado, there is usually dark grey clouds. Some tornado's can be skinny and some can be fat. It is usually very, very, very windy when your are somewhere close to the tornado. There may be rain when a tornado is close to your area since tornado's are formed by hot and cold air (ithink..).
No, because there really isn't a way to "pull" it from your body. They can actually scour grass and pavement off the ground, but if you were that close to one chances are you'd just be thrown through the air.
A tornado that doesn't touch the ground isn't a tornado; it is a funnel cloud. However if the funnel is pulling debris off the ground or making some other type of contact with the ground it is a tornado.

The tornado would not be affected in any way. The bullet would probably have is direction changed by violent winds of the tornado and will eventually either be embedded in something or fall out of the tornado to the ground.

You can loot them off bodies by searching (A). The can also be picked up off of the ground with "A"
Tornadoes and their winds are very dangerous. Even a fairly weak tornado could lift a person off the ground or send a piece of debris flying at them.
The strongest winds of a tornado are thought to occur near the ground, typically within the lowest 100 feet or so. Wind speeds in tornadoes can exceed 200 mph, causing significant damage close to the surface.
Antaeus got his strength from the Earth, so Hercules picked him up and held him off the ground.
There are thousands of things that lay close to the ground. There are cars that are made to sit really low, just barely off the ground. Outside animals often lay on the ground when they sleep or rest.
