Tornado on top of Pike's Peak: Video!

This is truly awesome.  A tornado on top of Pike's Peak (14,300 feet).  Actually it was probably more like a funnel since I never saw it touch the ground, but still it's so cool to watch:

Cool video, it's unusual to get them in the mountains but it does happen. The most famous I can remember was 2010,a confirmed 9 outbreak near Flagstaff 7000' elevations in Arizona. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_2010_Arizona_tornado_outbreak
