Perhaps that's exaggerating a bit.  These folks probably only obtained a few bruises.  However, I was there...well, not right there...but across the bay in Newark.  I was flying out in the same storm.  In fact, I was taking off about the same time this happened.  Fortunately, nobody was seriously hurt. 

To show you just how bad it was, here is a video of my take off.  Pretty intense.
