Chase It From The South explores the new challenges that tornado hunters Ricky Forbes and Chris Chittick face as they venture to capture the most dangerous tornados in the world. In the past, they have filmed extreme weather as close as possible, often being directly in the path or even inside some of the most devastating Tornados ever recorded. Tornados only move north, and since Ricky and Chris have become fathers in their individual lives, they have decided to adjust their approach to Tornado chasing: approaching all the storms from the south which puts an extreme amount of pressure on their livelihood. This film delves into the tension of when responsibility and passion collide, as Ricky and Chris navigate these treacherous storms.
