The Tornado Guy meme features Australian comedian Terry Tufferson getting out of his car to take a selfie while a massive tornado or dust devil swirls directly behind him. Originally uploaded to YouTube in 2014, the video went viral for its seemingly dangerous and reckless nature, though it was later revealed to be a clever piece of CGI editing. The meme is typically used to represent someone remaining calm, enthusiastic, or hilariously oblivious in the face of an impending disaster or an overwhelming life situation.
