Dust Devil Destroys Fruit Stand



A dust devil is a short-lived whirlwind that can form suddenly and dissipate just as suddenly. They are much smaller than tornados, and much less dangerous. However, this particular dust devil seemed to have a grudge against a guy running a fruit stand in Haines Junction, Yukon. From the YouTube description:
"I was buying fruit with my girlfriend at this fruit stand that comes every other week to our community. All of a sudden the wind started to get stronger and a table blew over and before we knew it, a huge strong dust devil formed. It lasted about three minutes and the dust devil took all of the guy's cash money and blew it all up into the air. After it ended, people who saw and watched it came to help clean up the big mess, there was fruit and boxes all over the place."
It was not a good day for the poor guy just trying to sell some fresh produce. (via Geekologie)
