People at a festival chased down a tornado and tried to dance inside it

The bizarre footage was filmed at the Earthcore psytrance festival in Victoria, Australia

Bizarre footage has emerged of festival-goers chasing a tornado before trying to dance inside it.

Filmed at the Earthcore psytrance festival in Victoria, Australia, revellers can be seen running towards the dust cyclone, before dancing around inside it.

The festival describes itself as 'Australia’s pioneering dance music, lifestyle, culture, arts, festival experience.'

The footage was captured by SynapticTV as the mini tornado appeared close to one of the stages.

The YouTube user labelled it a 'doofnado', perhaps in reference to the type of music on offer at the festival. Either that, or what happens to those who get inside the cyclone.
