No, I know that what is on there now is not a small tornado.

But I swear about four or five minutes ago when the twister WASN'T on the ground, he was filming the rotating wall cloud and suddenly a small, rope like twister dropped down to the ground to his left and passed RIGHT OVER HIM!!!

There was a brief interuption in the video feed when that happened.
