Prom dates get photobombed by tornado, and take selfies instead of running away

Now might be the time to leg it

Probably not the right time, guys.

A teen couple in the US were getting their picture taken before prom and were photobombed by a fairly large scary looking tornado.

What would most people do in this instance? That’s right, RUN!

But these two took full advantage of the situation and clearly didn’t want to miss the photo op. They hung around to get the perfect selfie.

Millenials, eh?

Whatever happened to saving yourself during an emergency? A photo wouldn’t exactly be the first thing that springs to mind in that situation.

Apparently though they told ABC News that they weren’t in any immediate danger. They said: “It was far enough away that we knew we were going to be OK.”

One of their mum confirmed: “It was quite a ways away and I knew they’d be safe. They went on to the prom and had a fabulous night.”

Still though, time and place right?
