Sometimes, all the matters is that "W."

How addicted are you to video games? Would you sit by and watch a tornado tear apart your neighboorhood while you play, itching to get that win? No? One teen had nothing on his mind but winning in Fortnite as one of the scariest natural occurrences ravaged his street. As reported by WXII, Anton Williams watched a tornado tear the roof off a building outside his home while he continued to play the most popular video game on the planet. 

A tornado in Greensboro, North Carolina killed one person, and tossed cars, powers lines, and pieces of homes into the air. Williams was unfazed. As the teen was interviewed by the local news station, an upside-down van can be seen directly behind him. As the reporter speaks to Williams about all of the damage surrounding his home, she asks him what he was doing when the tornado touched down.

"I was sitting at home and I was playing Fortnite and all the sudden I just heard a bunch of noise," starts Williams. "I looked out the window and I started seeing the roofs come off the houses in front of me, but then I sit back down 'cause I only had a couple of people left in my game. I was going to try to finish the game."

Now that's dedication. Check out the interview below.
