Two Waikato school boys found themselves in the eye of a mini tornado which lifted them into the air earlier this week.
Matamata High school's, George Jeffery, 13, says he was lifted around two meters into the air.
"It felt like a doing a massive moon jump," he said.
"I just thought it was just a big wind, I didn't expect it to be a tornado"
"A trampoline went over top of me when I went to get up. It was about a metre above me," he said.
