      I'm from Oklahoma, heart of tornado country. I've been in a few, seen quite a few. The university of Oklahoma or Oklahoma State does tornado tests using a air cannon and chickens or 2x4's... They shoot them at house walls to see the effects of debris in high winds. You might use something like it to test your system.

      something like this might help.

        This is very interesting to me. I have one question though. You said this would be useful for F4 and below. How are you going to keep this mobile pod secured to the ground? Granted, I know you stated that is is meant for shrapnel. I would just like to what is stopping it from flying away.

          It's tethered to the ground with either a pile foundation on the big concrete ones or a climbing anchor type yacht wire rigging
