The video tells the remarkable story of the Harrison family of Athens, AL, who survived an EF-4 tornado that completely destroyed their home and most others in their neighborhood. The Harrison’s and their two children emerged unscathed from their tornado safe room shortly after the tornado passed. As a result, they have chosen to share their story of survival to further spread the message -- safe rooms save lives.

A Father’s Decision to Build a Safe Room Saves His Family

Kevin and Sarabeth Harrison are convinced that they and their two young children are alive today thanks to the safe room they consciously decided to build into the corner of their garage. Made of reinforced concrete block, the family took refuge as a tornado devastated their neighborhood and surrounding areas – killing 250 people in its path. The Harrisons are still shocked to recall how 30 seconds of roaring winds forever altered the lives and landscape of their community. “The tornado ran right on top of us,” Kevin Harrison said.
