I love how his wife claims he's all calm and collected. On the OUTSIDE. There's a fire in that mans belly and it's raging out of control.

Y'all missed the point....
Quote: "A picture of a man in Canada calmly mowing his lawn with a menacing tornado swirling in the background has gone viral on social media."

Let me be more precise: "a man in Canada calmly mowing..."

This is how calm and collected Canadians are

I applaud the effort but I don't think that lawnmower is gonna drop that tree no matter how many times he runs into it.
