Here is part three of three of the video "Day of the Killer Tornadoes". This video details the Super Outbreak of April 3rd & 4th, 1974. Unfortunately most of the tornadoes shown in this clip are NOT from the Super Outbreak. I am attempting now to identify each of the tornadoes shown in this film and would appreciate any help.

Part three finishes up on what happened in Alabama during the outbreak. It also shows the aftermath of the outbreak and has eyewitness interviews of some of the survivors. The narrator incorrectly states that 147 tornadoes occured when it was actually 148.

There are some occasional glitches seen in the video because this tape is over ten years old and is quite worn, not to mention it runs at EP speed.

*UPDATED*

I'm going to attempt to identify which tornadoes are used in this video. Some of the tornadoes I don't know at all and will mark them with four question marks (????). Some of the tornadoes I'm not 100% sure about and will list what tornado I think it is but will place two question marks at the end (??). If anybody knows which tornadoes these are or if I labeled any of the tornadoes wrong please inform me so I can correct/update it.

0:21-0:22 Perrin AFB 4/18/1957 (Thanks to NateGillson and romerofan123 for identifying it)
0:35-0:36 Dallas, TX 4/2/1957 ??
1:13-1:16 Scottsbluff, NE 6/27/1955 ??
8:50-8:55 Keystone, SD 7/23/1966
