Everyone has heard of microbursts but a video does better at showing the real power. You can see how one can overpower an aircraft. Watch for it about 10 seconds in.

Sorry, couldn't get the Vimeo video to embed.

Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.
