In Part I of a special two-part series, the Tornado Trackers share one of their most frightening storm chasing experiences during the surprise regional tornado outbreak that ravaged Canton, TX on April 29, 2017. When Gabe's car slides off the road near a mile-wide tornado, he's stuck in a flooded ditch having last seen the now rain-wrapped tornado coming straight for him. The only thing he can do is make a goodbye video to his family and take cover in the car.

In this episode, the team becomes transparent about the mistakes that landed them in a terrifying situation where Jeff and Gabe  become separated as multiple tornadoes threatened their lives. This cautionary tale serves as an example of how personal motives can deeply effect the outcome of a chase.
