Bank vault saved 24 people during Oklahoma tornado
It's a testament to ... something. Awesome vault construction? The human will to survive? Either way, the fact that 24 people took shelter in this vault at the Tinker Federal Credit Union branch during the Oklahoma toado, and the fact that it's still standing amid the rubble of the utterly destroyed building are both very impressive.
The bank manager's dedication is admirable as well, remaining with the safe even after being rescued until it could be locked up and secured again. Two dozen people have been confirmed killed in the EF5 toado (the highest grade), and its 17-mile path resulted in at least $1 billion in damage. [Source]
