Think tornadoes only hit flat American plains? Think again. On July 28, 2005, an F2 tornado carved a seven-mile gash through Birmingham, one of the UK’s biggest cities. It ripped roofs off homes in Sparkbrook and King’s Heath like they were made of cardboard.
Frightening, yes. But also weirdly British. The local news reported that a garden shed was found perched on a car. Not a cow. Not a trailer. A shed.
