It looked something like a giant, demonic jacuzzi. One man captured the moment a huge hail storm battered Oklahoma, turning his swimming pool into possibly the least pleasant hot tub on the planet.
Vast swaths of northwestern Oklahoma were hit by the twister, including Oklahoma City, as ice hunks the size of tennis balls rained down.
The hail was so fierce that it damaged two ambulance units, one fire truck and 34 police vehicles. The 60-mph winds took down power lines, smashed windshields and cracked car exteriors.
As many as 21 people needed hospital treatment, with at least one cross-country runner being seriously pummeled.
Ironically, a farm where scenes from the movie "Twister" had been shot was damaged. The owner said he lost two houses, five barns, two silos, a horse and farm equipment.
Keep reading to see some amazing footage and more than a few "Oh my GOD"s.
Meanwhile, one man kisses goodbye to his car, on camera.

Experienced baseball-sized hail when I lived in Ks... Impressive stuff. Can't "f" with mother nature - she'll win every time.

After the first video of the car/truck getting hit by the hail, I watched this persons follow-up video. Wow! The dents that the hail put in this vehicle was amazing in addition to the cracked windshield. Hopefully, insurance will cover the damage. Oklahoma has been hit real hard in the last month. I hope this is the last for everyone in Oklahoma.

My mother has a mechanic shop with my brother and this storm destroyed 11 cars! The windshields were hit like a sledgehammer! Two dealerships cars were annihilated! A gas Love's truck stop had to be bulldozed! She's pretty busy getting all new glass but the cars are really dented too! What a loss!!
