This Terrifying Video Of A Car "Literally Flying" Is Going Viral And Unlocking New Fears In My Fragile Mind

    It's like an alien abducting a car.

    Hurricane Idalia is slowly leaving the US, but not before sending high winds, heavy rains, and even some tornadoes through the Carolinas.

    One terrifying clip in particular is all over my feed, and that's footage someone captured of a car pretty much flying on a highway:

    Dramatic video shows a car getting tossed into the air like a toy during a “brief, weak” tornado in Goose Creek, SC earlier today. According to local police, two people were transported to the hospital with minor injuries. #Idalia pic.twitter.com/r2Fow9TOCK

    As this person said, "Can you imagine being in that white car and all of a sudden a car is flying in the air at you?"

    Thankfully, according to ABC 4, the two people in the vehicle were sent to the hospital with only minor injuries.
