FORCE 5

Experience nature's fury as you witness moments when all of nature's powerful forces are unleashed. You'll get thrown into the heart of the sea to ride out a massive hurricane, get swept up into the massive funnel cloud of a violent tornado, and get launched into orbit around the sun as a gigantic solar flare erupts from its surface. You'll learn how these phenomena develop over time and how they can transform themselves into cataclysmic events when the forces of nature converge.

Run Time: 22 minutes
Genre: Documentary
