STORM chasing has been around for decades but was arguably made popular thanks to the 1996 classic film Twister.
The film followed a group of doctors as they chased the most powerful storm in decades in an attempt to test their ground-breaking tornado data-gathering device, Dorothy.
Bill Paxton portrayed the role of Bill Harding in Twister.
After the film, Paxton went on to star in several other productions, including Titanic, Mighty Joe Young, Spy Kids 2 and 3, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Million Dollar Arm, and Nightcrawler, among others.
Tragically, Paxton died on February 25, 2017, at the age of 61 after suffering a stroke that stemmed from heart surgery.
He left behind his wife of 30 years, Louise Paxton, and two kids, James and Lydia.
Helen Hunt is an Academy Award-winning actress who portrayed the role of Dr Jo Harding, Bill's estranged ex-wife.
Hunt's acting career first began in the early 1970s and has continued on since her iconic role in Twister.
After the film was released, she went on to star in countless other productions, including As Good as It Gets, Mad About You, Pay It Forward, and How It Ends.
After filming, Hunt also married and divorced Hank Azaria and welcomed her daughter, Makena, with producer Matthew Carnahan.

Since 1989, she has been married to investor Antony Ressler and she is the mother of three children, Oliver, Theo, and Nicholas.

Outside of acting, Smith often spends time with her daughter, Moon Elizabeth, who she welcomed with her ex-husband, Wesley Dale Smith, in 1958.

In 1996, Twister found much success at the box office, raking in over $495million.
Back then, fans were expecting a sequel but gave up hope as the years went on.
However, the hope of a sequel was restored after Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment announced that a project was in the works.
The upcoming film, titled Twisters, is expected to start filming in 2023, according to Deadline, and could focus on Hunt's character's daughter, who has the same storm-chasing bug as her parents.
At this time, it is unclear if any of the original cast members will sign on.
