A father and mother shielded their two babies from a tornado that demolished their trailer, and even the infant who was spun into a tree miraculously survived without serious injuries.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sydney Moore and her <\/span>fianc\u00e9<\/span> were in their Clarksville, Tennessee, trailer home with their two young boys when a tornado struck them directly.<\/span><\/p>\n

As soon as Moore, 22, heard the tornado approaching, she instinctively threw herself over her one-year-old son in the back bedroom to protect him. Immediately afterward, the walls collapsed on the young mother and her child.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLiterally, when I jumped on him, the walls collapsed. I was being really crushed, like, I couldn\u2019t breathe,\u201d Moore <\/span>told WSMV 4<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moore\u2019s four-month-old was lying in a bassinet near his father in the front room. When the tornado touched down on the trailer, the unexpected happened.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe roof came down first, the tip of the tornado came down and picked up the bassinet with my baby Lord in it, and he was the first thing to go up.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Moore\u2019s <\/span>fianc\u00e9<\/span> held on to his infant son\u2019s bassinet and the two were sucked up into the tornado together.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHe was just holding on to the bassinet the whole time, and they went into circles, he said, and then they got thrown,\u201d Moore said.<\/span><\/p>\n
