Part Tornado. Part Shark Attack. All bad acting. Sharknado hit the small screen early last month on SyFy. As one of dozens of 'intentionally' bad science fiction made-for-TV movies, Sharknado made headlines due to the
seemingly overwhelming response on Twitter. While they have seen better viewer numbers during reruns each week and a one night theater run, it does all seem a bit silly.
As they are surely planning a second (and likely third) installment, it makes you ponder the likelihood of such an event.
Cnet took a "scientific" look at the reality and actually sites several historic cases of creatures falling from weather anomalies, including alligators falling from a tornado, that Cnet called a "gatornado" ...which could be a good sequel idea.
For me, I think I would believe the reality of
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs before I would believe Sharknado could happen. Just thank goodness the
Weather Girls prediction never came true.
