captionPIC FROM MERCURY PRESS (PICTURED: JAMES LUDLAM, 38) A farmer has captured the unbelievable moment a TORNADO whipped up a 30-foot high funnel of hay... in his East Midlands field.James Ludlam, from Leicester, East Midlands, had been working on a neighbouring field at the 300-acre Cattows Farm when he looked up and spotted the spectacle on Thursday.Footage captured on his phone shows ferocious winds swirling hay up from the ground in a clear cylindrical column and whipping it more than 30-feet into the air.Although he admits it wasnt strong enough to lift anything heavy up, James believes that if his customers horses had been grazing on the field it would have caused distress to the animals.
