Bettes was one of several storm chasers struck by an EF3 tornado in El Reno, Oklahoma in 2013.

The storm rolled and tossed his SUV approximately 200 yd into a field.

The roof collapsed and his crew suffered major injuries: driver Austin Anderson broke several bones.

They were later found by Reed Timmer and his SRV Dominator team, who were storm chasing for Oklahoma City's KFOR-TV when they spotted Bettes' wrecked SUV, and saw The Weather Channel markings on it.

They stopped to assist Oklahoma Highway Patrol and other first responders, but had to leave to escape the back end of the storm.

The same tornado killed TWISTEX storm chasers Tim Samaras, his son Paul, and colleague Carl Young.

Local resident Richard Charles Henderson was also killed in the same area as the TWISTEX crew after deciding to chase the storm.

Bettes is married to Allison Chinchar, a freelance CNN meteorologist.
