The footage was captured by storm chasers, who followed the tornado as it left
a trail of devastation through, Chickasha, 25 miles (40 kilometres) southwest
of Oklahoma City.
Officials said a 26-year-old woman died when the tornado hit a mobile home
park.
A dozen people were injured and hundreds were displaced in the area.
The tornado was just one of the many that struck Oklahoma and the states of
Arkansas and Kansas on Tuesday, killing at least 15 people.
The powerful storms came two days after the nation's deadliest single tornado
since 1950 killed at least 125 people in Joplin in southwest Missouri.
